Sprite3D engine with FX [cross-platform]

[Rook Zimbabwe]

This is very well done!

Todo:
- text sprites
- text FXs
- bitmap font generator

This is great

Could you test this on Mac OSX / Linux ?
I want to know if containerGadget can contain a WindowedScreen.

Code: Select all

InitKeyboard()
InitSprite()

#w=300
#h=300
OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, #w, #h, "Screen")

contain=ContainerGadget(1, 5, 5, 200, 200, #PB_Container_Double)
OpenWindowedScreen(contain, 0, 0, 512, 512, 0, 0, 0)

Repeat
   StartDrawing(ScreenOutput())
      Box(5, 5, 32, 32, RGB(255, 0, 0))
   StopDrawing()
   FlipBuffers()
   ClearScreen(RGB(0, 0, 0))
   ExamineKeyboard()
Until KeyboardPushed(#PB_Key_Escape) Or WaitWindowEvent(0)=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

I had to change OpenWindowedScreen(contain, 0, 0, 512, 512, 0, 0, 0) to OpenWindowedScreen(WindowID(0), 0, 0, 512, 512, 0, 0, 0).
The slightly changed code displays:

Wow. The font-editor looks promising. Me thinks, the biggest advantage of using TTF-Fonts for this is, that you already own a license for the system-fonts on Mac OS or Windows. And there also are lots of free TTF-Fonts out there...

Maybe you should set up some donation-site when you reach v1.0?
I would donate maybe 10 or so Euros for a commercial grade engine if this engine works as I assume at the moment
Probably I will be using the Sprite3D engine for a bigger commercial project soon!

Thanks again!

I found a typo in line 1767. Is Procedure RandomSpriteAgnle(Sprite, angle1.f=0, angle2.f=360), should possibly be RandomSpriteAngle.

A little feature request...
Could you add collision detection? Would be very useful to detect if the mousecursor is actually touching another sprite.
Or for some kind of minimal physics-simulation, like in Billards, where you don't want to use the full physics package of Ogre.

Hmm...
I'll try to use an MDI window. I hope a MDI child window can contain a windowed screen.

This is insane! Thanks eddy!

This is an amazing work, eddy!
Thanks a lot for sharing.

PB 4.40b6
you must replace the previous engine3d.DLL (or engine3d.so) file in your project directory.
If not, you can't test any examples.

Yep in 4.4 I get a compiler error that DirectX is not installed. I have DX9.0 installed aaccording to DXDIAG...

And the engine is in the same folder as the PB COde it is running from. And it is the PB4.4 dl from the fist page in the thread!

I am however using XP Pro SP3

[eddy]

PB 3D engine has been updated, DirectX 9 is now the default PB subsystem.

You don't need to specify the subsystem in the compiler options.

Hi Eddy,

The link download : http://www.datafilehost.com/download-a1f2edf8.html
don't work anymore.

Where can I find the file or link ?

Thanks,
Marc
