PROGRAM:

NAME


openuniverse - 3D space simulation

SYNOPSIS


openuniverse [-bench][-fullscreen[mode_string]][-logfile[filename]]

DESCRIPTION


This manual page documents briefly the openuniverse command.

OpenUniverse (also called OU) is a fun, fast and free OpenGL space simulator. It
currently focusses on the Solar System and lets you visit all of its planets, most major
moons and a vast collection of smaller bodies in colorful, glorious and realtime 3D. If
you've ever had a chance to visit Mercury or asteroid Geographos, here you'll find them
looking exactly the same way, following exactly the same path as when you've left them.

This program really benefits of a 3D accelerator graphic card. It's the only way to
ensure a decent framerate (speed). OU has been tested on the following 3D chipsets:
Voodoo 1/2/3, nVidia GeForce2 MX/MX 400 (with nVidia's binary drivers).

When OpenUniverse starts up we suggest to simply lay back for a few seconds. Because you
have just reached Earth! OU's main screen with it's helpful information shows up now and
the blue planet will slowly rotate in front of you, while you have a moment to enjoy it's
beauty and fragility.

To view the Help press the 'H' key, you can swith on and off the demo mode with the 'd'
key. For other commands and functions see OU's manual.

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the GNU Info
format; see below.

OPTIONS


A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see OU's manual.

-h, --help
Show summary of options.

-bench Do a benchmark of your system.

-fullscren mode_screen
Launch openuniverse fullscren. The value mode_screen defines the screen resolution,
colordepth and refresh rate. For example the command line openuniverse -fullscreen
640x480:32@70 will run OpenUniverse in an resolution of 640x480 pixels, a colordeph
of 32 bit (truecolor) and at a refresh rate of 70Hz. Please note that the
characters 'x' and ':' are important and can't be removed (you don't have to suppy
refresh rate if you don't want as it'll use default refresh rate for the supplied
resolution). Note as well that a lot of 3D cards are only capable of resolutions up
to 800x600 and colordepths up to 16bit.

-logfile filename
Creates a logfile that describes the program operations. If no filename is provided
the logfile will default to log.txt and it will be created in the current working
directory.
