This is the initial Windows 95/NT version of the popular Unix 3D modeller AC3D.
This program is Shareware.  If you like it then please register - see the About menu
for more details of registration and what you get when you register.

The manual is available on the internet on the AC3D web page (URL below).


Files included:

   ac3d.exe - the main AC3D program
   samples - example AC3D model files.
   font*.ac - AC3D font files - these are used in the 'add text' function.  To get 
             3D models from TrueType fonts then use Font3D (see manual or AC3D page)
   lib - some library files that TCL/TK needs (AC3D uses TCL/Tk for it's user interface)
   tcl - some more files that AC3D needs for it's user interface
   *.dll - some dll files for TCL/TK and for OpenGL



Some known features of this version:

There are no labels on the windows - they should be:

    Front (XY)       Side (ZY)

    Plan (XZ)        3D (XYZ)

You can't resize the windows by dragging the window borders yet.

There is no balloon help on the menus.  Balloons from buttons, can
popup over the edge or outside the screen area.

The manuals still aren't up-to-date with the new user-interface.
