Hey I dloaded the engine. It is looking really good. I do have a Radeon Card and everything works fine...except when I bring down the console the demo freezes?! I don''t know what would cause this. Also I would like you to post the source (I think you said you were gonna do that) because I''m new to OpenGL, but I want to start working on a 3d engine. Seeing the code of a pretty good one like yours would help me tremendously. Keep up the good work!

OK, thanks for letting me know that problem is sorted out.

Yeah I was planning to release the source, but currently it is not in a completely working stage, as I am adding stuff to it. Once I have completed the final touches on my lightmaps, making them all line up perfectly with the shadows, and a few other small things, I will release the source. If you want help on anything specific in the engine, send me a mail.

Cheers,

Richard

I would check it out... however, WebJump seems to have went belly up...

Thought of the Moment
If F = ma, and Work = Fd, then does Work = mad?

Sorry about that, I was aware of them shutting down but did not give the new download URL. The new URL is:

With a bit of luck, I should have a new demo demonstrating my lightmap shadowing in a day or so, and the source for it available. Let me know what you think of the old demo though.

Thanks,

Richard

Wow!
thats awesome d00d

p4 1.7 ghz
geforce 2 gts 32mb
128mb ram (!! DONT SAY ANYTHING !!)
100gb

100 fps ... (mostly because thats my vsync hehe)

Really great work!

Cool

I don''t suppose you would be willing to tell us where you got the info on the Q3 level format, would you? I am interested in trying to load them with DX8.

Your Demo runs nice and smooth on my P3 500/128MB/TNT2Pro! Very impressive work, but as someone said before, the console screws up the demo, it simply freezes and all you can do is close the console and then your only option is to quit the prog.
It seems like the console is drawn, but the rest isn''t updated anymore.
Oh and please, put the console on the generic key, that all fps use, the one below ESC. With my german keyb I have to press [SHIFT]+[THE KEY LEFT OF BACKSPACE]
Besides this it runs great!

Yesterday we still stood at the verge of the abyss,
today we''re a step onward!

Nice. Too bad my computers slow as shit and every time I open it, I have 3 seconds beofre it restarts on me.. lol. From the 10 seconds i got a chance to look at it it was pretty cool.
