################################################################## # mobius # # Animation Red ball rolling along the Mobius Band # Features Instantiating # Author ash @ demiurge # Date ??? # Comments This model was based upon "mb.ice" model, created by # a MB generator, which I wrote long ago. It takes one # brick and instantiates it N times (here N=72). Each # instance is first translated along X by 1, and then # rotated about Z by 360/N and about Y by 180/N). File # "band.dat" holds the MB. "1st.dat" and "2nd.dat" hold # contain brick data that are necessary to make the 1st # and the 2nd round of the rolling ball. # Objects 72 bricks + 1 sphere + 3 lights # Frames 72 # Precision SINGLE # Time indicator bar, sample 16, demiurge: # resolution 128x96: 3 hour 32 min 52 sec # resolution 160x120: 5 hour 51 min 13 sec # # That's what I always wanted to render since Jim Kajiya's course... ##################################################################
