Hi.


There is nothing wrong with it!
I was just wondering, because it seemed like no one makes any plans at all for their voxel-engines.
A voxel-engine without any planning is going to be refactored a lot.
By having a good plan you won't have to refactor that much.

Im saying that only because no one should go trough the pain called "code refactoring".
But without any plan one will have to go trugh that many many times.

PS: If this post seems somehow unfriendly/non-constructive, please mind that i have an ill, and im not in the best mood because of that.

My two cents worth,

I've been a software engineer for 18 years, mainly C++, albeit not using OpenGL, so for me, this is a learning process, just having fun and many frustrations, but that is programming and that is what drawn me to it when I did my first degree, since then I've gone on to do a PhD in emotional engineering and I think that has damaged my brain some    So, doing a voxel engine is kinda fun, and most importantly, educational.

Update

I will be now working mainly on my other project:
http://www.java-gaming.org/topics/3d-turnbased-rougelike-lwjgl/29229/view.html

However I will perhapse use this sandbox environment to test various effects, a cubeword project is ideal for that.
For my other game I will have a 3d partical system and this is a test in the blockworld environment to see how viable that would be.

I'm not sure if im allowed to have 2 active threads?

Hi yea I see what you mean. That's easy to change, just a float value. But It's just made me think, I ought to make them bounce about! Will get onto that tomorrow.

Thought your game was amazing, will keep checking it out.

The explosions are cool, I like where this is going, do you have a list of features that you will implement?

Interested what you might do with this.

Looks great

Damn that is looking so good :-)  Very pleased for you and this is inspiring.

Did you do a new routine for the ray cast?

Cool Vermeer,

Do you unload chunks when they are not in view and then load new ones?
