TraceTheRay

===========

This is a raytracing 3D-renderer, as the name suggests. It is one of my first C++ projects, and there sure is a lot more to learn, so I am thankful for every kind of tip.

The current version is 0.5, but is still a very early stage of development and there are still plenty of features missing as well as bugs here and there.

I am on Mac OS X Lion, am using g++ to compile and run it from the terminal. I guess on other platforms errors might occur...

Changelog

=========

	- up to v0.5:

		- (not in git)

		- basic development

Features so far:

================

	- 2D:	

		- create a PixelMap, draw lines on it and save as bmp

	- 3D:	

		- create polygons and trace them

		- set up a camera

		- output traced polygons as bmp

	

Known bugs:

===========

	- drawn line is not always correct

	- outer pixels of PixelMap have wrong coordinates

	- Camera: calculating the needed vectors is wrong for direction parallel to z-axis

	- render output is still not correct
