Hi Alex, Basically, I started it as a 3D engine, but now that I have applied all the mathematical rules and proofs on all of my primitive classes and their parent classes, I have started to realise that I am actually creating not only the engine but the connections for an interface using 3D positional sounds instead of graphics with the same matrix structure a visual 3D game would use.
So the concept of this framework is to have a toolset for: 1-getting data from various file types and parse them into a separate database of elements, arrays within matrices, themselves within matrices. 2-A node system that connects the entire hierarchy of the 3D world, and a parsed interface in parallel. 3-A set of geometrical and physical tools (transforms, rotations, projections, spline behaviour, animation keypoints, boundaries, deflectors and warpers in various shapes which are also hierarchical, using either forward or inverse kinematics. I finished the nGon class which creates any shape from triangle to square all the way to a circle in a click, with local and world relative axes contained within the nGon object. This object will then be used among other data capsules in the wObject class which is either an interactable object, a character, AI or buildings. Considering that this is the basis for my venture into visual perception algorithms, I have made sure everything is optimised with the right helper tools and tree structure of classes collecting data from each other through either parallel processes or sockets. 4-The parallel processing and sockets are mainly server side, but These will be child classes of the voice conversation layer, which I will need some pointing towards so I don’t fall into coding for a crap module. 5-a set of server side tools using standard db methods (I’d like to use mongodb but will have to refresh myself and update the code to reflect) 6- Since all of these can be packaged into a module, ONce I have tested user intervace accessibility, I want to focus on structure comprehension with each platform, whether mac os or windows. Finally, once all the testing is made on WOW and players can start populating the official server, I will have a set of tools that satisfy the 3 tower multi agent concept invented by Bell and following robotics and AI scientists. Using the knowledge from the wow experience, I am going to integrate a set of sensors (infrared, sonar, bluetooth, gyro, temperature and humidity that will fit in a small stone like material (in this case, diamond I will produce with the diamond synthesising oven I purchased a few months ago. If you look at the parallel between the world I am coding, and how the software interacts with the world (for eg: when a player roams the world, with the log streams from the game’s console providing location information and other relative stuff, the software can gather that information from what I like to call single agents which are just the perceptive tower of the 3 tower algorithm used in AI. The information, topology, points of interest, perimeters, etc can all be called or instances created through my 3D math classes. If mapping out a virtual world is being done right now (hoping to finish this component by mid february), then nothing stops the software from swapping virtual world with sensors creating a rough outline of what’s around us. Using bounding boxes etc. And since there’s already a 3d audio layer, the sky becomes the limit. The reason why I am looking for blind programmers is because only blind users can really try to have an intuition as to the human computer interfacing methods. Like I said, I have a server with all services available to those who wish to participate, and the goal is to get 5-10 persons in game to discuss what needs to be changed between the UI selection methods (I have an empty key_bind class”), how the 3D engine will fare as the number of objects grows (though I am currently using the functional programming style and keeping algebraic complexity to a minimum, save fundamental formulaes, transforms and class instances. This particular section of my code uses 3 components: nodes, positional sound and a filter pass of each speech synthesis output to create the world. I hope this clarifies a bit more.
