i've been trying to expand this library to 4x4-matrices so it could be used for calculating homogenous coordinates; since i don't know math, that is quite the mental challenge for me (the implementation would not be too hard). i'm stuck at the following: while i can find & understand the multipl...

That is indeed a cool concept for bending your mind! Never heard of it, either; thanks for sharing it! I second Kjell's suggestions; some feedback (if that is not considered distracting) and a more comfortable menu would be nice. If you like to, you can take the generic 'Button'-Model from my 'Citys...

i think that it would definitely be cool to have a more icons available. i'm afraid that i'm rather picky in that regard though (being about to finish academic training in design sometimes does that ;)). i think that new icons would either have to mesh perfectly with the established ones, or redefin...

a happy new year to everyone! (i guess all time zones involved are on the same side of new year's eve by now)
i wish all of you a pleasantly productive start; let's see where this one takes us with ZGE :)

sorry, i didn't read orel's post about it - setting the RenderTarget to a power-of-2 size helps tremendously! kjell's feedback example runs smoothly even with a canvas of 2048x2048px, jph's sonnenmörder looks fabulous. and now that this feature is being interesting, i'll have to allocate some time f...

i'd like to report that my laptop (intel t2600 1.67ghz w/ ati mobility radeon x1600) is running less than 1 frame per second on anything with FBOs involved. i've got no clue wether this is a problem of old hardware or ati, but i'll be glad to help in finding the bug - provided it is one - if it shou...

ach, the envy!

thanks for these!

just adding my two cents: pro - Solid concept & implementation of the component tree. Although some things are tricky to understand, most of them feel consistent. - XML File Format. This rocks because you can: - Copy & Paste between different projects (massive timesaver, allows for 'librarie...

since it was not immediately obvious to me, i guess i should chip this in for other newbies:

congratulations on that! a nice set of features in this release :)

hi, thanks for the comments - nevermind the hijack! :) the generator links are really inspiring! the problem of generation time is already apparent - i was a bit surprised to find that loading the pregenerated city was so much faster ... regarding design choices: i'll have to take some more time to ...

Yeah, I meant material. So why not with generated texture material? i think the ZBuffer property is the key: on the material that uses the imported texture it is set to off, while the material using the generated texture has it set to on. the texture itself has no influence on the ZBuffer setting o...

hm, when i set the grapTest-material to use a generated texture, the crate still disappears. maybe what you did was to select a different material instead of assigning a different texture to grapTest?

by the way, is this in any way related to baseball? it looks a bit like a pitching hill :)

i think it's because you disabled the ZBuffer for the grapTest material. if i enable it, the crate stays.
