Some how 3DS is much more intuitive and fast IMHO, some say the hot keys in blender make it fast to construct models but it sounds a little like the ide vs vim/emacs situation, AFAIK most people go for what's intuitive and simple.

I'm also a fan of powers of two 

I do the same thing, I store all my particles in an array of Vertex and put them in a buffer every frame. I think structs would help me out here, but only if I needed a lot more particles. I'd have to do the same thing for animated models, so structs might help there too.. Btw why is your particle system size a power of two? Is this really necessary?

IIRC The last particle engine I made used a interleaved array and had a lot of put statements, probably would have been better with structs...

So it's a question of how much vertex data your pushing around? If it is, how much more can I push? And should I care if  all I'm doing is making small games with under 50k polygons?

How much faster could it make lwjgl if we had it?

I'm guessing that means we're all going to have to wait a long long time...

Hello everyone!

My brother and I we're working on our first site, it's a site for our warcraft III clan, mos. We're proud of the forum we made so I thought I would post a link to it

http://mos.kgbinternet.com/

It might be interesting since most people use pre-made forums, I used jsp and servlets to script it, and my brother worked on html and graphics.

Please tell me what you think, thanks.

Hello everyone.

Just wondering if were going to see structs in mustang or dolphin?

Thanks
