NAME
polyview - a sample program that displays polygon mesh surfaces using vdslib
SYNOPSIS
polyview [options]
DESCRIPTION
polyview is a program that displays .poly files using vdslib to reduce the number of triangles used depending on the distance between the observer and the object being viewed and the requested quality. As the number of triangles is reduced, the rendering speed is increased, specially for large models.
