I was wondering if there was a fast way to do gouraud shading using the
functions built into allegro. I've currently got a 3D flat shading
engine based upon allegro. I'd like to modify this to do gouraud
shading. Currently I draw a scanline using hline() so I would envisage a
simple modification would be to replace the call to hline() with one
that draws a line by interpolating between the colors of the line edges.
I'm aware of the different drawing modes, do these affect hline()?
Anyone out there who can help? BTW I'd appreciate a decription of the
finer points of the drawing elements of allegro.

Thanks.

Alan.
