Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pro OGRE 3D Programming is your detailed guide to utilizing the OGRE 3D engine,
one of the best-in-breed 3D rendering libraries available. You'll learn what
OGRE is, and more importantly, what it is not. OGRE gives you an object-oriented
interface to render 3D scenes independent of the implementation, such as
Direct3D or OpenGL. OGRE is available on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. It can be
utilized to create a variety of 3D-based applications and is commonly used in
game creation.

This book covers OGRE from obtaining the source to polishing the final product.
If you are an aspiring game programmer with beginner/intermediate-level
knowledge of game design practices and intermediate-level knowledge of the C++
language, this is the book for you. Familiarity with open source project
management tools such as CVS and Subversion will also help you to digest the
material. Included with the book is a ready-to-use Utility Toolkit class library
useful for jumpstarting OGRE-based programs. You'll also find discussion of
OGRE's capabilities from the perspective of a content creator, not just a
programmer.

The content of this book was reviewed prior to publication by Steve Streeting,
founder and lead developer of the OGRE 3D project.
