Ancient Downloads

You'll find here some software snippets and small applications. They all are native Windows applications and somewhat out-dated. Maybe it's more interesting for you to have an algorithm that renders an analogue clock but to have an running executable. If you find these programs useful you may use them freely.

D3DRMAX

3D teapotD3DRMAX is an ActiveX Control that renders a 3D mesh using Direct3D (Retained mode). Thanks to Mark Feldman and Stan Trujillo for their example code. You must have installed DirectX 3.0 or higher. (Runs with NT 4.0 and SP3 (or higher) installed, or Windows 9x and DirectX 3.x or higher). Source code and two demo meshes included. D3DRMAX is written in Visual C++ 6.0 but should run with older / newer versions without problems. (This is a fast-hack. Don't expect superior code.) Click here to download.

 

Analogue Clock

3D teapotThe Analogue Clock is a small applet written in Visual C++ that shows, well, an analogue clock. In contrast to the origininal Windows clock program the hands don't have shadows and you can't see Greenwich Time. (But you will see the current date.) Sources included (based on Ch. Petzold's clock example; our version uses MFC). Click here to download. (The same as ActiveX control.)
