| Readme: | # About
This is a little technical demo of a voxelspace renderer written in C99.
It was created for testing purposes and private research only.
Currently I cannot say how it will develop in the future.
This demo provides five different worlds taken from the game Comanche developed by Novalogic.
- World 1: pyramid
- World 2: desert
- World 3: winter
- World 4: canyon
- World 5: rocky
You can select them by passing program arguments.
Have fun!

# Requirements
* MorphOs: any MorphOs system should work.
Tested it on a Mac Mini G4 Silent Upgrade with MorphOs 3.14.
You will need a 640x480x8 screen mode.
* AmigaOs: Tested on a Amiga 4000T, 060, Cybervision 64/3D, Aos 3.1.4 and
Amiga 1200, 060, AGA, Aos 3.2.3.
Requires c2p.library from aminet (https://aminet.net/dev/misc/c2plib.lha).
* Linux: tested on Ubuntu 20.10 (amd64)
It requires X11 server.
# Usage
Please start the binary (voxelspace_mos_gcc, voxelspace_060, voxelspace_060_c2p) from your shell.
To get a complete arguments list of the program, please start it with '-h'.
You can quit the program by hitting ESC.
On Amiga with gfx card, you should use voxelspace_060.
On Amiga with aga only, you should use voxelspace_060_c2p.
This requires c2p.library (>=1.7) from aminet (https://aminet.net/dev/misc/c2plib.lha).
## Program arguments
