This week I bring to you the built-in scripting editor. It features full integration with the engine. It will have it’s own crappier version of intellisense using reflection. The script editor highlights the reasons your code did not compile. Built using ICSharpCode.TextEditor it has many possibilities. I’m hoping to eventually have full debugging support. Which […]
Git To help me get this done faster, I’ve coaxed Gizmo in to working on the project. He’s yet to get started, but Git has been setup in anticipation. Should hopefully get his first contribution next week 😀 Play/Pause The Play/Pause button is now working again. It works in Sqlite by making a copy of […]
Still working on the database and prime nodes as before. The database is actually working now! Yay for not crashing! Just need to fix texture and probably model loading. There’s also a bug where components duplicate for some reason. It’s been a super busy week at work and with other projects, so progress has had […]
I’ve been pretty busy with work and other things this last week. But I’ve still managed to do a bit on EE. Primary Nodes One of the first challenges with loading things on demand is how to figure out what things are demanded. This is where primary nodes come in handy. A special property that […]
Huge thanks to Andres from BulletSharp for providing a work-around for the local inertia values. Database integration progress The last week I’ve been moving from json serialization to saving to/from a database and loading on-demand. It’s quite a lot of behind the scenes work so I don’t have a whole lot to show for the […]
Previous tests used json for storing the world, this was what NetGL used. But this is not good for our target, we need something that can fetch certain parts of the world as we need it. Not all at once like in json. This is where LinqConnect comes in handy, because we don’t just want […]
This week has been a week of catching up on the bugs, so that the editor is semi-stable before doing heaps more work on the terrain. Done heaps of work on the GUI for the terrain. (Still more to do on the splatmap section.) Saving with a RigidBody no longer causes a freeze. Several bugs […]
This week I’ve added “play mode” to the editor. Previously the editor was basically always in play mode. Now there’s some new buttons. While the editor is in edit mode, only scripts that are marked to run in edit mode will work. This is a feature that the editor camera uses. Terrain Optimizations Also are […]
I’m using Bullet if any one is interested on reading about it. Bullet is quite a famous physics engine, you may have seen it more than you realize. Below is a picture of the debug wireframe mesh that shows the physics layout in the world. For good measure is a cube sitting on the ground. […]
Bones are a tough subject, and require a ton of things to get working. It’s times like these that you really appreciate the hard work put in to game engines. I’m lucky I have Assimp to lean on for most of the hard work. At the moment I’m adding the ability to import an animation […]
