  • New Release coming soon

    I've received some patches that will: add support for binary STL files rotation enhancements. On a personal note, I'm in the middle of a move and on the tail end of a tough year. Thanks go to the code contributors who have waited longer than they should have to see their work added to the project. I'll be uploading the new revisions in the next couple of weeks. Viewstl has seen nearly 2000 downloads from all over the world. I get fairly regular feedback from users, nearly all of which is positive. The most requested changes are: up to date win32 binaries and source binary file support rotation and lighting issues. Looks like I'll have two of the three nailed with this coming release. Anyone up to compiling / editing the win32 code once I've merged the changes? I've still got an IRIX machine to develop on, once I'm moved and settled in, I'll likely bring that version up to date. Had someone working on an OSX version, but never heard back. Anyone willing to lend me an account for a short while, or try to compile the Linux version? That's about it, more to come soon.

  • Cleaned up dowloads

    Man, what a mess! It has been a while since I last looked at these. I'm sorry guys, that was tough to parse for sure. Now it should be quite a bit easier. The current binaries for all platforms are shown for file download. They are the only option now. Linux is at 0.35, win32 at 0.33, irix at 0.33. The current code is in CVS with the latest 0.35 for linux in the linux directory. If you happen to build 0.35 for other platforms, I would really appreciate hearing about it. My time is limited right now, so this would be a big help. Thanks for dealing with the mess! Things are better now.

  • 0.35 Linux version in CVS

    Viewstl receive a patch that fixed build problems and a bug. These changes have been merged into the Linux version. IRIX and win32 changes will follow. An already complied binary for Linux is in the CVS tree because of its small size. Release files to follow.
