Horde3D and PB

Post by BasicGuy »

Just curious, but has anyone considered a PB lib/wrapper for Horde3D? It's a very clean and efficient game engine based on OpenGL. Simpler, I think, than Irrlicht...

Well if it was a DLL it would be pretty simple to use... looking at the download though:

HORDE3d.dll and a few others. are listed in the demo files. Since PB can use almost any .dll lib I have seen yet it should be pretty simple for some of our resident geniuses to peel the docs back and figure out.
:D
Binarily speaking... it takes 10 to Tango!!!

Looks nice. Too bad it isn't cross platform, which is why I'm going to stick with Irrlicht for now.

Thread resurrection!

If anyone is interested, I have finished a complete wrapper for Horde3D Beta 5. I'm currently using the engine with SFML which is a perfect combination. A wrapper for SFML is also available if anyone is interested (although 2.0 is coming out soon and the wrapper will need a full re-write then). Horde3D itself takes a while to get used to, as it does things quite differently than most other 3D engines with its pipelines and XML-based resources.

Here's a nice looking small game made with Horde3D + SFML.
