ZGE under WINE and games under Linux

Actually, I have discovered a STRANGE behaviour under wine, but I was able to work on my project using the WINE layer 1.0-ReleaseCandidate on Ubuntu linux, and this is a big win for me :) The point is: when i want to add a new component, if I right click then choose "Add a new component" t...

you can do it by using shaders... But things can become quite difficult even if lightning should not be impossible...

Also, a good idea would be starting a pool when proposing a feature, so people could vote what they would like most ;) But this is up to the proposer i think :)

Basic Maze

I've managet to get a very simple maze created using a very simple text file, in which you must describe the allowed paths: example, if you get a 2-way cross:

preprocessor

I would really like a Preprocessor feature like the #DEFINE directive in ansi-C.

read also the "Two argument variant of arctangent" snip.

I think the point is that we are currently using a Delphi engine, which means Pascal Engine, and... uhm... I think that nothing like a delphi compiler exists for any console...
