Description: Just the other day, we had the LTE studios people releasing their custom-made 3D engines for homebrew developers. And since I wasn't quite expecting it, I was pleasantly surprised.<br><br>And again, I wasn't expecting any other engines. Atleast not so soon! Well, it's nice to be surprised once in a while. And considering the fact that it's another homebrew engine for the developers, it does sound great. This time, it's Kojima from the PS2DEV forums with the great accomplishment.<br><br>Here's what he had to say:<br>"Here's the first alpha of raptor 3d.<br>It's a hybrid engine that is a port of MiniB3D by simon harris, and my own engine Trinity, both of which are open source PC GL engines.<br>It's written against the latest svn version of PSPGL and as such requires you have it installed before using this.<br>Currently the project is a single file containing a small demo and the engine, by alpha2 maybe 3, it will be organized into seperate files for each class."<br><br><br>Like the other engine, this one also offers great features:<br><br> * SceneGraph with child/parent relationships.<br> * Multi-texture material (Only 1 one texture supported atm, need to do multi-pass stuff)<br> * Full suite of entity maniuplation functions, including position/rotate/lookat/scale etc.<br> * Matrix class.<br> * 2D Engine using pens for fast orthogonal 2d rendering of rects/lines 2d textures.<br> * 2D Gui, with windows, buttons, plugin styles and more, including full mouse cursor emulation via the nub, dpad and action buttons, sliders, canvas etc<br> * Full support for static b3d files made popular by the blitz3d Application.<br> * Font renderer.(Uses texture based fonts)<br> * Logger (Create text logs and log output via Logger->Log())<br> * And some other stuff.<br><br>The next version, alpha2 will most probably also add in boned animation and multi-pass texturing.<br><br>I've made a forum thread where all the interested developers can discuss. Kojima has also written a small coding guideline which I've pasted in our forums. Good luck with your homebrew games!
