A simple sphere, with a planar texture. Renders fast.

We have a supercomputing cluster at work, and I was told that they wanted to
get some high load specs on it.... Well, I can provide high load.
Bwa-ha-ha. So I've got a SC cluster to play with every now and again (ie,
nights and weekends). Knowing Howard's system, it wasn't much of a jump to
say "Hey, what can you do with some *real* power". This was the result.

The version I posted has it.

I've got the code, but I think I'll let Howard explain should he wish.

I'm not sure if you understood me right, i meant the mud splashing when
the robot's feet touch the ground and the shapes that remain afterwards.
I can recognize some spherical shape on the high raising stuff, but the
things remaining afterwards do not look like spheres.
The compression is quite strong so i'm not very sure about it. Maybe a
still of that part would help.

Probably true. Might want to add one of those "BwwwwwoooooOOOOO" sounds of
a generator firing up then. ;)
