Thank you very much Fred! I hope finish the editor this year.
Im making this with PB6.02 but when finish will be updated to PB6.30. Idk why but the IDE in new version some times goes crazy with highlighteds or crashes. For that reason and because it is compatible with my old MacOS Catalina I am working mainly with 6.02

When convert to 6.30 i think just need change material creation section to be compatible with the new engine. And may be add new features.

News:
Fix many bugs.
Fix lot of bugs in materials.
Update the GUI with new and more efficient control and new colors.
System to compute real object size. Needle to put the object on the ground.
Button to 'land' the objects.
Button to remove object.
Button cast shadows on/off
Input move step.
Input rotate step.
Can move group, object or all.
Look at object button.
Reset camera, nice when you are lost in space
Set material button to re-apply a material.
File menu is out, now is not in project.
Log list in the corner.

UnrealPB engine... CryPB engine, PBUnity engine PBHavock engine? What sound better?

Einstein said that the difference between genius and stupidity is that genius knows its limits. I'll be stupid?

If you could code in some fresnel changes in your materials, that would go a long way to getting PureBasic's 3D to look more modern. It's the building block to physically-based materials. I am not an expert at it, but it's something about keeping diffused and reflections balanced.. Conservation of energy. When we look at the sides of a material, it is more reflective than the part that faces us directly.
