Book Reviews of Focus On 3D Models (Premier Press Game Development)

Book Review: Small, short and to the point
Summary: 5 Stars

Explains some of the more common 3d models and includes an appendix with links about other formats not covered. This book only briefly explains some technologies, like skeletal modeling, and otherwise just tells you what you need to get them rendered.

Just enough to get you started.

Summary of Focus On 3D Models (Premier Press Game Development)

The book is a reference for developers using 3D models. Instead of simply showing a spec sheet, the book delves into the loading and rendering techniques of 3D models. The text is as API and platform independent as possible, so users of Direct3D, OpenGL, etc. will be able to interpret and use the information provided in the book.
