<P>

This is a list of people who have contributed to Crystal Space in one way or
another.  Some of these people are no longer active with Crystal Space and may
not be reachable.  This list is sorted chronologically based upon the first
time a person contributed to the project.
</P><P>

<UL>
<LI>
Jorrit Tyberghein (<A HREF="mailto:jorrit.tyberghein@uz.kuleuven.ac.be">jorrit.tyberghein@uz.kuleuven.ac.be</A>)

specific implementation issues.  Jorrit's home address is Schoonstraat 11,
3020 Veltem Beisem, BELGIUM.
</P><P>

<LI>
Andon M. Coleman
<P>

Andon patched 3ds2lev so it works correctly for
non-texture mapped 3DS objects.
</P><P>

<LI>
Murat Demircioglu (<A HREF="mailto:demircio@boun.edu.tr">demircio@boun.edu.tr</A>)
<P>

Murat was the first contributor for Crystal Space.  He provided the first
steps to porting Crystal Space to DOS.  Parts of his code are still
present in the current version.
</P><P>

<LI>
David N. Arnold (<A HREF="mailto:derek_arnold@fuse.net">derek_arnold@fuse.net</A>)
<P>

David enhanced the DOS port made by Murat.  He added C++ classes and
VESA support.  David also wrote the original Pentium assembler version of
`<TT>scan.cpp</TT>'.
</P><P>

<LI>
Loic Dachary (<A HREF="mailto:loic@gnu.org">loic@gnu.org</A>)
<P>

Loic added a patch for better error reporting when a plugin
can't load and also did some work on better compatibility with
autoconf.
</P><P>

<LI>
Brendan Burns (<A HREF="mailto:bburns@genet.cs.umass.edu">bburns@genet.cs.umass.edu</A>)
<P>

Brendan worked on a memory canvas which can render to a memory buffer instead
of a window.
</P><P>

<LI>
Nathaniel Saint Martin (<A HREF="mailto:noote@bigfoot.com">noote@bigfoot.com</A>)
<P>

Nathaniel is a very eager Crystal Space fan.  He even has his own web page
dedicated to Crystal Space:
</P><P>

<A HREF="http://www.bigfoot.com/~noote/CrystalSpace">http://www.bigfoot.com/~noote/CrystalSpace</A>
</P><P>

He enhanced Arnold's DOS port again so that it worked with the Watcom C++
compiler.  He also suggested and implemented a considerable restructuring of
the system-dependent stuff with every port having its own directory.  He is
also the original author of the input/output console.  Nathaniel was also the
first to actually present me with an almost working Windows 95 version with
source! Nathaniel is also responsible for most of the sound support code in
Crystal Space.  He made the basic sound system, wrote the Windows drivers and
wrote support for 3D sound.  Nathaniel created the config utility which allows
for easier editing of `<TT>cryst.cfg</TT>'; currently only for Windows and
DOS.  In addition he also enhanced the (now non-existant) CSAR
utility.  He also helped develop the Windows/Direct3D and Windows/OpenGL
versions and is co-author of the Glide port.  His latest work has been some
enhancements on the 3D sprites including two convertors from Quake `<TT>.mdl</TT>'
and Quake 2 `<TT>.md2</TT>' to Crystal Space.
</P><P>

<LI>
Jyrki O Saarinen (<A HREF="mailto:jxsaarin@cc.helsinki.fi">jxsaarin@cc.helsinki.fi</A>)
<P>

Jyrki made the original Amiga port of Crystal Space.  This old port can still
be found at the following location.  Beware, however, that it is extremely
obsolete.
</P><P>

</P><P>

<LI>
Steve Israelson (<A HREF="mailto:pfhorte@rogers.wave.ca">pfhorte@rogers.wave.ca</A>)
<P>

Steve made the pre-Carbon Macintosh port of Crystal Space.  He also did some
optimizations on the assembler `<SAMP>draw_scanline()</SAMP>' routines.  Steve made the
first preliminary physics system and also implemented an easy uniform kind of
dynamic lighting useful for fluorescent lights and such.  Steve greatly
enhanced the routines to parse the map format.
</P><P>

<LI>
Bill Bohan (<A HREF="mailto:zorn@technologist.com">zorn@technologist.com</A>)
<P>

Bill contributed the first free textures for Crystal Space.
</P><P>

<LI>
Ang See Chai (<A HREF="mailto:lynx@tm.net.my">lynx@tm.net.my</A>)
<P>

Ang See contributed another set of textures.
</P><P>

<LI>
Jaison Lee (<A HREF="mailto:jaison@apk.net">jaison@apk.net</A>)
<P>

Jaison gave me a new version of `<TT>police.fnt</TT>' which doesn't give an error
on the Borland compiler.
</P><P>

<LI>
Phil Harvey (<A HREF="mailto:filrv@syroxdev.co.uk">filrv@syroxdev.co.uk</A>)
<P>

Phil suggested a statistics counter so that you can see the number of polygons
considered and drawn each frame.  He helped with Nathaniel to get the Windows
32-bit port working.  Phil patched <CODE>find_rgb_slow()</CODE> to make it slightly
faster (but he forgot to rename it to <CODE>find_rgb_slow_somewhat_faster()</CODE>.
:-)
</P><P>

<LI>
Tor Andersson (<A HREF="mailto:d97ta@efd.lth.se">d97ta@efd.lth.se</A>)
<P>

Tor contributed some textures.  He also donated code for reading several file
formats and a virtual machine.  This code has not been integrated with Crystal
Space yet but you can find his code in the `<TT>contrib</TT>' directory.  Tor gave
me a `<TT>dj_joy.c</TT>' file (in the `<TT>contrib</TT>' directory) which is an
example on how to use the joystick from within DOS with DJGPP.  He
also added JPG support to Crystal Space and support for the mouse in
DJGPP.
</P><P>

<LI>
Alessandro Russo (<A HREF="mailto:alessandro.russo@ntt.it">alessandro.russo@ntt.it</A>)
<P>

Alessandro gave me a patch for the X version of Crystal Space which
allows simultaneous keypresses and disables autorepeat.  This makes movement
much more smoother.  Alessandro Russo presented me with a patch to fix the
autorepeat problem (in X-windows).
</P><P>

<LI>
Gary Clark (<A HREF="mailto:GaryC@jeld-wen.com">GaryC@jeld-wen.com</A>)
<P>

Gary designed the basic framework of the Graphics3D class and I helped him
start to implement this.  Gary also made an extension so that Crystal Space can
now use accurate RGB light sourcing.  Since this slows down the texture
cache a bit I have made it optional (using `<TT>cryst.cfg</TT>').  Also added a
patch from Gary Clark to fix the problem with the X version of Crystal
Space that Crystal Space would not immediately start drawing but only after
an expose event was generated.  He gave me the `<TT>lin_joy.cpp</TT>' file (in the
`<TT>contrib</TT>' directory) which is an example on how to use the joystick from
within Linux.
</P><P>

<LI>
Karlis Freivalds (<A HREF="mailto:karlisf@cclu.lv">karlisf@cclu.lv</A>)
<P>

Karlis found and fixed a few stupid bugs in `<TT>wcc/watcom.cpp</TT>'.  I wonder
how this version could work before he fixed it.  :-)
</P><P>

<LI>
Darius Snapkauskas (<A HREF="mailto:snapkus@iname.com">snapkus@iname.com</A>)
<P>

Darius was busy with 3D sprites.  He contributed some unfinished stubs for his
work.  Unfortunately he seemed to have stopped supporting it.  His code has
now been moved to the attic directory.  The current 3D sprites in Crystal
Space are developed by Jorrit Tyberghein.
</P><P>

<LI>
Dan Ogles (<A HREF="mailto:dogles@peachtree.com">dogles@peachtree.com</A>)
<P>

Dan provided a patch for `<SAMP>printf()</SAMP>' so that it also works with the
Windows port.  Dan made the Direct3D port for Windows! He greatly enhanced the
Windows port and also added 16-bit support for Windows.  His greatest work up
to now is converting the 3D and 2D graphics subsystems to COM.  He thus
provided the foundations for the COM system (also on non-Windows
platforms) that Crystal Space used in the past.  He also contributed the
Halo code to Crystal Space.
</P><P>

<LI>
Robert Blum (<A HREF="mailto:r.blum@advertainment.com">r.blum@advertainment.com</A>)
<P>

Robert patched Dan Ogles' `<SAMP>printf()</SAMP>' patch so that there is no more
buffer overrun and also found a bug in `<TT>gifload.cpp</TT>'.  He also ran a
memory debugger on Crystal Space and found/fixed many bugs related to that.
</P><P>

<LI>
Anis Ahmad (<A HREF="mailto:anis@cyberus.ca">anis@cyberus.ca</A>)
<P>

Anis updated the makefiles for Watcom C++ for both Crystal Space and
CSAR.  He also made the Crystal Space editor for Windows 95 which is
unfortunately no longer supported.

Norman contributed several fixes and new features and helped with code
cleanup. In particular he worked on the sound code, the engine, CSWS and
the graphics drivers. He also worked on the image loaders. For example he
split the former monolithic image loader into several modules, added saving to
many of the image loaders, fixed the BMP loader so that it is endian
correct and added RLE8 encoding to the BMP loader. Norman also added
the <CODE>csQuaternion</CODE> class and has been bringing the Glide drivers up to
date. Norman contributed a FreeType font server plug-in.  Most recently, he
added a grid-view to CSWS. He also added a sound renderer using the artsd
soundserver that comes with the aRts system (see www.arts-project.org). Norman
added an export script for Blender. He added texture coordinate animation to
2d sprites. He worked on the video file streamer. Norman also added the
(unused) <CODE>csCrystalBall</CODE> culler and the fancy console plugin.
In addition he has also worked a lot on the OpenGL renderer (mostly support
for extensions). Lately Norman worked on AWS and a convertor from QT to AWS.
Norman also added several sound related modules like ogg.

<LI>
Eric Sunshine (<A HREF="mailto:sunshine@sunshineco.com">sunshine@sunshineco.com</A>)
<P>

Eric is one of the developers who does far more work than can possibly be
detailed in this small blurb, and his contribution to Crystal Space is far
more extensive than this tiny entry implies. His contributions include:
</P><P>

<UL>
<LI>
Eric ported Crystal Space to MacOS/X, MacOS/X Server, OpenStep 4.2, and
NextStep 3.3!
<P>

<LI>
He has also fixed numerous bugs and problems throughout the system and has
provided a number of significant updates to the makefile system.  He did a lot
of work in cleaning up the Crystal Space source code and the makefile
structure.
<P>

<LI>
He added an automated rebuild process for the Windows/MSVC project files.
This process gleans nessecary information from the GNU makefiles
throughout the project in order to entirely eliminate manual maintenance of
these files.
<P>

<LI>
He added automated generation of CVS "snapshots". They are packages
(archive files) containing the complete CVS tree. Also, log files and
<EM>diff</EM> files are generated. Eric also set up automatic notification of
all changes to <A HREF="mailto:crystal-cvs@lists.sourceforge.net">crystal-cvs@lists.sourceforge.net</A>.
<P>

<LI>
Eric designed most of the current configuration system (for example the
idea of a configuration manager) and helped a lot with the implementation.
<P>

<LI>
Additionally, he fixed the long standing problem with the console blanking
out all but the most recently printed line of text which occurs on ports such
as Windows, MacOS/X Server, OpenStep, and NextStep. As part of this patch he
replaced the ill-conceived progress meter code in the lighting routines with
very localized and simple classes. He repaired the broken console in MazeD,
so that it is once again functional.
<P>

<LI>
On the documentation front, Eric took on the task of acting as master editor
of the Crystal Space documentation.  As part of this job, he has written much
of the content which ties together various portions of the manual, fleshed
out much of the bare skeleton and written many otherwise absent sections. He
is also responsible for the documentation's current look and feel and has
created an entire supporting infrastructure to make documentation available
easily and automatically on all supported platforms. He set up the automated
API reference generation, node repairing for the texinfo documentation
source and conversion texinfo to various other formats. He fixed lots of bugs
in the HTML conversion script, `<TT>texi2html</TT>'. He has also pored
through the documentation and updated many out of date references.
<P>

<LI>
Eric rewrote and re-engineered the BeOS port of Crystal Space almost entirely
from scratch with the result that it is now about 98% functional as compared
to being only about 15% functional before his effort.
<P>

<LI>
Eric re-engineered Crystal Space's network driver architecture and completely
rewrote the network drivers from scratch.  The new architecture is far more
robust, generalized, and usable than the old.
<P>

<LI>
Eric, a long time opponent of the monolithic <EM>system driver</EM> concept,
designed the modular and flexible replacement infrastructure which he and
others then proceeded to implement.
</UL>
<P>

Denis contributed a routine to split a convex object into slices parallel to
the view plane (useful for volumetric fog).  He also added a progress bar to
the console (during lighting) and added a new way to do bilinear filtering for
the software renderer.  He also dramatically improved the quality of the
precalculated lightmaps.  Denis also improved the movement system in WalkTest
by implementing gravity and better collision detection (using the collision
detection system from Alex Pfaffe). He added the `<TT>metademo</TT>' application
which has recently been reworked to the `<TT>metaballs</TT>' mesh object. He also
fixed a lot of bugs.
