Rephrase: Crystal Space is a mature, full-featured software development kit (SDK) providing real-time 3D graphics for applications such as games and virtual reality. It is free (LGPL) and cross-platform (Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS X). > Crystal Space is actually split in two main sub-projects: Rephrase: The project encompasses two main components: > - Crystal Space: component-based rendering engine on top of OpenGL, with > many features such as advanced shaders and lighting systems, physics, 3D > sounds, animation blending trees, terrains, XML loading, virtual file > system, handling of physical peripherals, and many many other things. Rephrase: A modular, configurable, and extensible rendering engine supporting OpenGL and advanced features such as shaders and lighting systems, physics, 3D sounds, animation blending, foliage, terrain, virtual file system, physical peripherals, and more. > - CEL: entity system providing support for higher-level functionalities > like runtime package environment (CELStart), generic event system, avatar > and camera management, artificial intelligence (path finding, steering > behaviors, neural networks and genetic algorithms), cars and hovercrafts, > networking (experimental), etc. Rephrase: Entity system supporting higher-level functionality, such as runtime package environment (CELStart), generic event system, avatar and camera management, artificial intelligence (path finding, steering behaviors, neural networks and genetic algorithms), vehicles, and more. > Crystal Space is also closely linked to other projects like Planeshift, > blender2crystal, CrystalArchitect, YoFrankie and CrystalCore." Rephrase: Related projects: YoFrankie, PlaneShift, Blender (blender2crystal), CrystalArchitect. (I omitted CrystalCore because it appears to be mostly dead.) -- ES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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
