Eleet Description

A screensaver for your KDE desktop Eleet is a screensaver for use with Linux and UNIX, that pays homage to the classic space trading game of Elite. Eleet displays textured rotating OpenGL models of various spaceships, based on on those found in Elite.Eleet aims for simularity rather than perfect accuracy. A random model is chosen from a pool of 53 models, roughly every minute and rotated on screen against a starfield background. The name of the ship orbits the model. Requirements: · KDE What's New in This Release: · Added: Smoothed starfield points for OpenGL/Hardware implementations which support it. · Added: Thrust particle emission from exhausts. · Added: Exhausts do not respond to lighting, giving the effect of glowing when not lit. · Added: Support for the orbiting ship name on OpenGL implementations that do not support 'Non-Power-Of-Two' textures. · Added: The orbiting ship name is now randomly coloured. · Added: PNG texture support, saving approximately 7.5MB of space. · Added: Command line parameters: starnum, thustnum, switch · Added: Setup options for XScreensaver · Added: Also look in /usr/local/kde4/bin and /usr/kde4/bin for kde4-config · Fixed: The orbiting ship name transparency is now also applied to the stars · Fixed: Don't show in KDE 'Lost & Found' menu on some distros if both the KDE and Gnome versions are installed. · Fixed: Installing for KDE 4 on BSD should be fixed. Sed on BSD does not support the newline character in substitutions. · Misc: Some texture improvements to Remlock · Misc: Reduced clipping distance. · Misc: Starfield optimisations which should improve performance, especially on slower systems.
