Re: Performance & feature comparisons for 3D BASIC tools

>>PureBasic 5.22 comes with OGRE 1.8.2, but PB comes with OGRE3D as build-in-engine. So you doesn't have >>access to everything, that OGRE can.


So the latest PureBasic 5.22 LTS that I purchased comes with Ogre3D, but what version? 1.8.2 ? Sorry for asking a dumb question (I should have done more ...

Re: What are the best free 3D games or demo apps made with P

@ Bruce,

Great job with the 3D Pool game! Quite addictive! (but I suggest the "power" level be set with the UP and DOWN arrow keys, and the up and down mouse movements be used to control the player's viewing height above the table! I found the power level setting a bit difficult to set along with ...

What are the best free 3D games or demo apps made with PB ?

Please post links to where I can download the best or the most impressive 3D games or demos you have seen, made with PureBasic. I have not yet seen the full range of graphics features and performance of Ogre / Ogre3D technology, compiled with PureBasic.

What are the most important 3D game development tools ?

Question:

What are the most important 3D game development tools ? (when developing 3D games with PureBasic?)

For designing skeletal-animated characters?
For creating and editing 3D maps populated with objects?
For editing textures, UV texturing and 3D objects?

What are the 'essential' tools that ...

Re: Performance & feature comparisons for 3D BASIC tools

Thanks. I am still 'shopping around' for a really good 3D game developing language to learn and use, which can still produce fast and smooth rendering performance for highly complex scenes. I was considering using C# and Direct3D, but the code looks very OOP and messy. I never liked C or C++, and I ...

PureBasic wishlist

I don't know yet if PureBasic can generate multi-threaded code, or parallelize internal loops, to harness the full power of all cores.

If not, please add this request so we can all see this feature in future versions of PureBasic. Nuclear Basic already does this, so

Performance & feature comparisons for 3D BASIC tools

I am wondering if anyone would like to compare the most popular BASIC programming tools for 3D game programming.

To have a fair comparison, you could reply by giving a * * * * * (up to 5 star) rating for each category for each of the following products, where 5 stars = best technology (like ...
