ProcBox (264 k Zip) A little demo of some of the procedurals in Genesis. I wrote most of these (5 of 6), and they're damned fast (I wrote a bunch of great assembly). - C. Bloom

Bump (515 k Zip) Bump mapper demo. This is the bump-mapping procedural I wrote for Genesis. This might be glide only. In glide it gets an easy 70 fps (limitted only by the speed of the card). - C. Bloom

Effect.zip (63K) - Ralph Deane's Effects Manager for RGF Designer. You need to follow the directions and recompile the RGF Wrapper, at http://www.rabidgames.com with MSVC 6,

Proctest.zip (187K) -a sample of the RGF procedurals and entities. You only need RGF Designer Pack, also at rabidgames, to see them.
