Real-time 3D Character Animation with Visual C++ (Book & CD-ROM)

Rating:
Summary: Very useful in all aspects.
Review: The language is simple and direct. Nik really touches the subject in depth and keeps the math simple. The sample code is also very useful. I found fairly easy to modify for my custom applications. The book has been teaching me a lot. I've been even learning about GL and MFC with his book. If you need to learn about character animation, Nik's book must be on your collection! Looking forward to the next one.

Review: The title on the book reads C++.
It is detailed, and concise, Covers the nitty gritty
of all the scary details down to Forward and Reverse Kinematics.
Lightwave, and 3DS ascii file parsing, Motion Capture, and the Author's own Toon3D Engine.
Thoroughly Enriched, Well Researched, and Easy to Read (for as complicated and detailed as this material is).
well laid out. Definitely Hard Core Food for Thought.
Thank You Nik.
