[what do you want see in leadwerks 3.0]

I think it should slot nicely into Blitz3D - just to give it that touch of 'street-cred' that the kids can recognise and relate to. All this BlitzMax and C++ are okay but, frankly, most people have probably never heard of them.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

Mmm.

 

I think some of you probably don't realise that I am teasing in a cheeky-scamp kind of way.

 

Don't fret over it or I'll punish you with a another video.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

Aha, I didn't know there was an Off Topic section - I've always used General Discussion in the past.

 

In fairness, it was only added a few months ago after the previous time I had posted here.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

Alright, I'll add some deer things walking about.

 

I don't want to do anything too complex as I don't want any of you to feel disheartend and quit.

 

I'll take it slow, let you lot catch up (as I lap you).

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

Do you get Leadwerks users posting their work in the Blitz3D forums?

 

Technically, they post on the Blitz forums (in general) and there are a few in the gallery.

 

 

I just like to give you lot something to aim for every now and again. I mean using Leadwerks Engine involves a lot of cheating because of engine features. This is real coding.

 

 

I managed to upload a second video, shorter and better quality:

 

Chow.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

I uploaded a low-quality video:

 

Technically, YouTube has not finished processing it - so the quality may improve further later when it is finished and made public.

 

I am currently uploading a second, higer-res, video that will probably take an hour or two.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

But I assume you'll need to start up your lightmapper again if you want to change the lighting in your scene, correct?

 

 

No, no, no - that is all realtime.

 

 

 

EDIT:

I have made a video - I'll upload it onto YouTube - may take ages though.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

Yeh, it was meant to be kind of moody-looking. I always get told that my stuff is too dark (especially shadows).

 

Bare in mind that it is all DX7 Blitz3D though. I think it is not too far behind some of the stuff done in Leadwerks Engine.

[Does this look good (and exciting)?]

 

 

 

 

 

[Just want to say thank you!]

Yeh, Leadwerks Engine is pretty much the hottest ticket currently out there - probably coming in a close second to Blitz3D.

 

Use it with BlitzMax and you pretty much have Blitz3D V2.

Stranded was a Blitz3D game. I think I have the source code for it.

 

I may be willing to trade.

 

There has since been a Stranded II game - I might have the source for that one too.
