VIEW
Single view objects do not change their view based on the players
position. In other words, they look the same no matter how you look
at them. This works best for objects with radial symtetry, such as
pillars, cauldrons, torchiere lamps, etc.
5 view objects offer 8 different angles of view by x-flipping certain
of the views to take advantage of bilateral symetry. The views
represented in the art are 0, 45, 90, 135, and 180 degrees. Views
for 225, 270, and 315 are created by x-flipping 135, 90, and 45
respectively.
8 view objects have unique views for each of the 8 viewing octants.
5 half view objects are a special case of 8 way views for objects
which are flush against a wall. For these objects, it is not
possible to view them from behind the wall, so the 3 rear views are
skipped. Views of 0, 45, 90, 270, and 315 are represented. This
mode works well for sconces, clocks, relief ornaments, etc.
