Info Update for Exotica and Morfit
Hiyas,
For the people that may be interested, I just wanted y'all to
know the current progress of Exotica and Morfit.
Exotica - A DirectX Game programming library for Euphoria:
(at http://exotica.iwarp.com)
I'm still working at it. The DirectPlay and the Direct3D (basics)
functions are almost done. I have a 3D demo made with Exotica and
Euphoria in exe form downloadable in my Exotica Section at my website
if you want to take a look at my progress on that. It just shows
a rotating textured cube done with Direct3D Immediate mode, a tiled
background and FPS graphics done with DirectDraw which
demostrates that you will be able to use all the regular graphic
functions while using Direct3D. Since I'm introducing DirectPlay and
Direct3D into Exotica, the next version of Exotica will be 2.0 and
will be available here, hopefully, soon.
[ Note: If anybody downloads the 3D demo I have, if you could, please
let me know how it ran on your system and what type of video card you
have. Also, if you get errors, please tell me what happened and
send me the e_report.txt file it produces in order to give me some
idea what may be going on. Thanks.]
Morfit 3D - 3D engine Library plus a Euphoria API to use it:
Mark Brown and I have basically completed an API to use
the Morfit 3D Dll. It hasn't been %100 tested though.
We will be releasing it once the people at Morfit(http:\\www.morfit.com)
gives me access to upload the Euphoria version to thier website.
It does come with examples that uses David Cuny's Win32Lib which is
the perfect Euphoria tool in letting Morfit do what it does best in my
humble opinion. The only problem is that it doesn't have documentation
of the Morfit Euphoria API yet.
In releasing it here soon, we hope that other people will get involved
and help us out by finding any bugs and even write more examples
to show off Morfit in Euphoria to be released in future versions.
Also, for people that don't know, if you complete a Morfit program, you
have the option of releasing it to Morfit were they distrubute your
game for you to make money with.
The only drawback, I think, is that Morfit has it were they project
graphical ads into your 3D game. But never-the-less, it's possible
to make money with your creation.
Welp, that's it for now.
