 The cal3d 0.8 release consists of the following (source-)packages:

  - cal3d-0.8.tar.gz (.zip)
    The source-code of the cal3d library.

  - fileformats-0.8.txt
    The description of the cal3d data file formats.

  - cal3d_data-0.8.tar.gz (.zip)
    The example cal3d model data (skeleton/animation/mesh/material).

  - 3dsmax_models-0.8.zip
    The original 3ds max model files.

  - cal3d_miniviewer-0.8.tar.gz (.zip)
    The source-code of the cal3d model viewer (OpenGL).
    (depends on the cal3d library and the example cal3d model data).

  - cal3d_miniviewer_d3d-0.8.zip)
    The source-code of the cal3d model viewer (Direct3D, only win32)
    (depends on the cal3d library, the example cal3d model data and DX8.1 SDK).

  - cal3d_exporter-0.8.zip
    The source-code of the cal3d exporter (3ds max, milkshape now).
    (depends on the cal3d library).

  - cal3d_cally-2.8.tar.gz (.zip)
    The source-code of the cal3d cally demo.
    (depends on the cal3d library and the example cal3d model data).

 All the above source-packages contain autoconf/automake scripts, a kdevelop
 and a MSVC++ workspace. They should compile and run fine on win32 and linux
 systems.

 Unpack all packages into the same directory, so that the directory structure
 looks like this:

    cal3d_project/
      cal3d
      cal3d_data
      cal3d_miniviewer-0.8
      cal3d_miniviewer_d3d-0.8
      cal3d_exporter-0.8
      cal3d_cally-2.8

 Make sure you rename the 'cal3d-0.8' folder to 'cal3d', and the
 'cal3d_data-0.8' folder to 'cal3d_data' before compiling/running the other
 packages. A symbolic link under linux works too.

 A win32 binary version of the cal3d cally demo with the cal3d example model
 data included can be downloaded as: TheCallyDemo-2.8.zip. This package is
 completely stand-alone, no other packages are needed to run it.

 Have fun!
