I'm new to 3d as well, but I do rember trying a 3d prog on my amiga 500
back in 1990, and yes, proud to say I did the mirror ball thing.

I gave up on 3d pretty quick, it was a pain waiting over night, getting
up and looking at the screen top see it was only half done.  

The joys of an 8mhz cpu and 1 meg of ram :o)

Any way, can some one please explain the following to me?  The two values
on each line bit, I cant reem to find it in teh docs, but there are
examples of one colour on each line.

color_map
{[0.000, 0.154   color rgbt <0.894, 0.886, 0.886, 0.000>
		color rgbt <0.745, 0.745, 0.753, 0.000>]
[0.154, 0.308   color rgbt <0.745, 0.745, 0.753, 0.000>
