How are things wit the new GAME ENGINE?

hi everyone!

I read about the new game engine project in logic_editing_proposal.pdf document but I dont know how are things with it?
Somebody know anythig about it?

it doesn’t look like people are trying to implement that at all

at the moment the physics are being reimplemented, and I think culling.

>=\ they are getting solid in there now and saluk is doing frustrum culling i think… thats all the info i know

That are really good News. I didn’t know that saluk is working to add “Frustum” to the GE. In combination with the better Collision detection from “Solid”, i finally see Light at the End of the Tunnel. :smiley: Does anybody know a approximately Date?
Doc

It will be followed by a tuesday

there isn’t a release date planned yet

Oh! Suddenly, there is no more Light. :frowning:

Whats Frustrum?

the view frustrum is essentially the shape of the boundries of the camera’s view

so, the 4 sides of the camera view, and the near and far clip.

frustrum culling is the process of not drawing what isn’t in that region

I remeber that PDF! I started to drool as I got into the STATES part… really nice!.. unfortunately, at the time, we have to get a working 2.3x game blender version working… that means… stable physics…

i really hope that the game engine functionality gets ported to the animation system.

I just tested the bf-blender build of 18 januari and I saw that the P is enabled again. :smiley: I tried to run a game in it, but still some things don’t work, like key press, and some more, but I think we can use it in blender 2.32, so maybe it’s back then, euh I mean, I sure it is back at 2.32 (90% sure) So we’ll start a party then on gameblender irc channel. :stuck_out_tongue:
