CrystalSpace 3D Extension
Hi Everyone!
I'd just wonder if anyone is interessed to make a CrystalSpace 3D Extension.
CrystalSpace 3D is a free 3D Engine licenced under GNU LGPL.
I dont know what the rules on that licence are, but on the website it says this:
In short, the LGPL allows you to use CrystalSpace as a library in your products, even commercial products, but modifications to the library or derivative works incorporating parts of the library must be made freely available to everyone, under the LGPL's terms.
Well, anyway please check it http://crystalspace3d.org and say what youre thinkin ;) (well really, i already know.... "Not good idea").
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
If Irrlicht extension is released one day it will be awesome...
I don't know if anybody would like to adapt CrystalSpace3D in an MMF2 extension since it's a hard and long work.
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
Irrlicht is more or less Vaporware.
It would be great for there to be a CrystalSpace3D extension, but doubt it would be made.
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
Vaporware? What's that supposed to mean? It's still being worked on if that's what you're saying.
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
"Vaporware is software or hardware product which is announced by a developer well in advance of release, but which then fails to emerge, either with or without a protracted development cycle."
-Wikipedia
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
The Irrlicht extension is not vaporware, it is still going to be made. Just it might be with a different developer :P.
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
Well considering there was a playable demo released a few years ago, the only reason for no further info to be released about it is for it to be vaporware.
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
no offence but that description could be put to every microchip PIC there is. Just because there is no PUBLIC announcements does not mean that private developers and testers arent using it. It will be done someday as vortex2 said
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
still, it would be great to have some news, we are all looking forward to use it (at least the ones that believe it's gonna be released, i trust it !!^^)
Re: CrystalSpace 3D Extension
Ok here is the news:
A) It looks like Turboferret disappeared.
B) Plans are in action to make the extension anyway.
It will take time but the unofficial goal is for it to be released by the end of summer. It might happen sooner, it might happen later. It depends.
Public news is usually rare becuase people like to bug developers about when a particular project will be done. As a result people are rarely informed about the status of a project until the project is near release.
