Hello,

I want to create an animation tool for POV including a simple scene
modeller.
So I am interested in other modellers. Most simple program I know is sPatch.

Does anyone know how it works ?
It has splines, where the points are used as waypoints.
What I'm interestet in is the decision whether a polygon is visible or not.
Has anyone ever seen a source code ?
If so, please post it.. :)

you might want to take a look at jpatch
source is available

search on freshmeat.net/sourceforge.org

might just save re-inventing the wheel :-)
