Phystut has recently been made more fun/usable. Avatartest is using good quality models and looks good. I'm toying with CEL's evolvecraft since more than one year and I'm starting to get descent results. I'll commit it in some time. We are working with a friend (his pseudo is Korbak, he made a big part of the Krystal model) on the concept of a car for Frankie. We would like to make a level using the assets made within the YoFrankie project, with a terrain2, CEL's cars, foliage, maybe even impostors, ocean, water, clouds and fauna. Some other demos may also be great, like something fancy about the shaders and lighting. A level with many dynamic lights would be great. A shader node editor may be either useful and fun. I also thought about doing a general C++ class for the demo's. Its purpose would be to ease the development of future demo's, unify the layout of the demos, provide common advanced functionalities, and simplify the actual demos to let them focus on the particular thing they want to test/demonstrate, being more pertinent. The functionalities of this class may include: - all common management of main engine objects (g3d, g2d, etc) - basic display of text (like the omnipresent Write/WriteShadow methods) - display the logo of CS - display general infos like FPS, triangle count, etc - 'Info' menu: description of the application - 'Help' menu: available keys & commands - screenshots, video recording All of this can be made cooperatively. For example, the big "Frankie's car" level can be fun to set up all together. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Crystal-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/crystal-main Unsubscribe: mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
