Hi slobu,
In case your developing non-commercial games, I'd highly recommend XSI Mod Tool for Environment Creation / Editing. The only downside is that I believe you cannot export to .3ds ( neither can Softimage / Maya by the way ) .. so you'd need a convertor.
Good luck,
Kjell

Gimbal Lock
Hej, For everyone that is not familiar with the problem that is Gimbal Lock . You're going to run into this problem when for example wanting to make a 3D space exploration game like Elite or any other situation where you want to rotate over 3 axis. There are two good solutions for this. One is to su...

Hej JPH, This game is even harder then your previous man 8) Ville's remark concerning texture sizes is a valid one, textures in general look better when scaled up ( unless more then 1.5x as you loose detail ) then scaled down. Runs at my display's refresh rate without problems though. And thanks for...

Yo jph,
Well, since I've had some experience with HLSL / CG in the past years, GLSL all looks rather familiar to me. When it comes to designers, I've only tried the one at TyphoonLabs, which seemed quite decent .. but I ended up typing most of it in ZGE anyway.

Hi guys, Since ZGE makes use of SDL*, in theory it should not be too difficult to port it to PS3 / Wii etc. 360 however is another story due to DirectX. But when looking at the engines jph mentions, they are quite limited in the platforms they support at well. Blade only does PC / 360, Unity does PC...

Hej jph, Ironically this is how it works already in the Fragment / Vertex properties of the Shader Component. Even better, you can just overload any function with the amount of variables you want to pass*. But I suspect Ville just plucked a GLSL Parser somewhere off the web, and that the ZScripting ...

Hey,
Use the ZExpression Component for expressions. If you'd taken a close look at all the wonderful examples that are included with ZGE you should have know that
Here's a tutorial on shadow mapping using GLSL ( Link )
Good luck,

Animated Characters
Characters that can both be Animated & Cloned are a piece of cake to create when (re)building their skeleton / hierarchy using the RenderTransformGroup component. Here's a basic example.
Have fun~
