THE ANIMATION
 
This animation depicts a Klingon D-7 battlecruiser under fire from an
Excelsior class Federation starship.  The animation was created to test
some explosion effects.
 
 
HOW-TO
 
The animation was created using several programs.  The starships are
3-D models constructed in Cyber Sculpt and the flyby passes were rendered
with CAD-3D 2 (using a Cyber Control script).  The explosion effects...
for me to know and you to find out.
 
 
NOTES ON THIS VERSION
 
To make this animation runable on a 1-megabyte ST system the entire file
was "letterboxed", with the top 46 and bottom 46 lines of the picture
being blacked out.  This reduced the total amount of memory taken by the
animation from almost 1-meg to under 700K!  I was careful to make sure
nothing important was cut off, so all you really lose is part of the
opening "flyover" of the Klingon Battlecruiser, bits of the phaser beams,
and parts of the explosion.
 
 
MEMORY
 
This animation should load ANY ST or TT computer provided it has a least
1-megabyte of RAM.  1-meg ST users should have NOTHING in memory but
ANIMATEx.PRG in order to view this file.
