[Pkg-pascal-devel] new version of view3dscene

[Greg Couch]

Hello,

You three are listed as the maintainers for the view3dscene Debian 
package.  Please update it to version 3.16.1.  3.15.0-6 is in stretch 
and sid.  After it is updated, I'll file a bug with Ubuntu to get the 
newer version.  Enclosed is the announcement on the x3d mailing list.

     Thank you,

     Greg Couch, gregc at cgl.ucsf.edu

> Hi,
>
> We're proud to release view3dscene 3.16.0, our open-source
> cross-platform X3D and VRML browser (and a viewer for other 3D
> formats). Download it from

>    https://castle-engine.sourceforge.io/view3dscene.php
>
> This release is accompanied by Castle Game Engine release 6.0. Castle
> Game Engine is a unique 3D and 2D game engine using X3D as it's scene
> graph (and interchange format, too). The engine information and
> downloads are available on
>
>    https://castle-engine.sourceforge.io/
>
> This release is a culmination of more than a year of intensive engine
> development. We have various new X3D extensions:
>
> - Shape.shading = "WIREFRAME",
> - fields "slices", "stacks", "divisions" to specify geometry triangulation,
> - using normal maps from a MovieTexture,
> - Shape.render,
> - many shadow maps and shadow volumes improvements.
>
> Of interest is also our new animation format (using X3D internally)
> that allows to export any Blender animation (with armature, shape
> keys, physics simulation, particles...) to our engine (and
> view3dscene). It is called castle-anim-frames, and the detailed
> description is on
> https://castle-engine.sourceforge.io/creating_data_blender.php  .

> Last but not least, I wanted to mention our new Patreon page. You can
> support the engine and view3dscene development and get some real
> rewards --- in particular, I'm devoting a weekend per month
> exclusively to the features requested by Patrons. So you can request
