I have been looking at PLUSH to allow 3D viewing of some simple 
geometric structures within my program. I have played with PLUSH a 
little (apex.c, 3d1.c exapmples from PLUSH Homepage and this
newsgroup)and it works well with DJGPP and seems to have the functions
that I need, mainly simple shapes (cubes, spheres etc), ojbect movement,
and Transparent object capability. The problem that I had was trying to
select color components for objects to make the Transparent capability 
look good. PLUSH does not give much help here and there is no
documentation dealing with color components for transparency.

Has anyone used PLUSH exectively with transparent object and has any
tips or examples on setting up the color components?

Can anyone recommend another simple 3D grapics package that will display
simple geometric objects, and that works with DJGPP well,
and looks good when displaying transparent objects?

What is happening with PLUSH anyway? I have not seen any activity on it 
for some time. With a little more documentation I think it would be 
very good for many applications.
