No problem from me

There was some hackage I did to the VOGL graphics engine so that
it does BSP (binary space partition) hidden surface removal,
so hopefully you have both the modified VOGL library and the
GopherVR code. If you don't I have them around here somewhere...
On the other hand, there may be fast enough GL libraries (and
computers) that the hacked VOGL is not necessary now.

What do you have it compiling under? (a completely out of the loop
mpm asks)

It might be fund to compile this for LinuxPPC/Yellowdog since that
is where I live... that will sort out the endian issues, if I get bored
next week.

to make the 'bounce' seem right when you jump thrrough a scene
we ended up going for 1/3 of earth normal gravity. It gave the
whole things a more 'un-earthly' feel.
