This applet was written during my final year @uni, for the Advanced Graphics Module
It got me an A++ :-P
Currently for this applet to work you need the Java 1.3 JRE (Java runtime enviroment) installed.
This is available from java.sun.com and is approx. 5mb to download(
Java 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition, v 1.3.1)
I have now made a 1.1 version for all those ppl without 1.2+ JRE installed, arn't i kind

1) In *Some* browsers with *Some* graphics cards scrolling of the page will cause corruption of the Applet canvas(IE4 is fine, IE5 causes corruption). Might place the Applet in a seperate page to prevent scrolling, as this bug is unrelated to Java.Fixed Bugs
1) The Java2D polygon drawing methods did not perform polygon clipping correctly, this caused the paint method to stall (not crash). As a temp. fix faces that fall outside of the view window are not rendered.Future Modifications (in no particular order)
1) Add 1.1 and 1.2 version of the Applet - the applet doesn't realy use any nice features of 1.2 or 1.3, so i might go back to 1.1, so everyone can run it. Why don't browsers have built-in support for the newer java versions yet?!??!?!Update!! (these changes have not been uploaded yet - 'cos they aint quite done ;-)
0) removed some of the typos ;-}
