FXAPI

A simple software 3D renderer in C.

It uses my bitmap module as a framebuffer and for texture maps.

The renderer uses Barycentric coordinates for texture mapping as in tinyrenderer, which is a bit slow. I was working on a scanline rasterizer at some point, but I had some trouble with the perspective correction, and didn't get around to finishing it.
