well i am personally too busy to learn a new script lang.Who thinks they can?

I'll see if i can. I think i've still got panda3d around here some where . . .

Well panda 3d supports .X format so you could export anim8or files to 3ds then use the program conv3ds to make the files .X format.

Or you could export the models to blender(dont scorn me) then use the .egg export script.

I did not know that. I'll try it

'Crysis, a first-person shooter & spiritual successor to Far Cry. FarCry itself used Lua extensively'

'PlayStation Home is programmed using Lua. '

"Roblox" An Online Kids MMORPG for kids Ages 7-14'

'Star Wars: Empire at War and Universe at War: Earth Assault '

'The Guild 2 Most of the game is programmed in Lua. '


- I Love Wikipedia



I could give python a go... Always helps for when i get higher up in education... like actually using REAL programming in school, all we use is excel so far.

lol I bow down to you master of the script. :)

"Notorios close button" thats great.

3d Joe

Like I said I know games can be made in lua just IN MY experience I had never seen it used for a WHOLE game not saying thats what you guys where planning on doing, but whenever I used lua it was on top of something else low level like C/C++ code. I'm sure you guys dont need me to tell you this and I'm confident you'll manage to make something cool. Good luck in your pursuits.

btw
Wikipedia is a good source  :)

I meant no disrespect, i myself had never seen a game made with it, but i'm highly defensive with lua, i agree, on it's own, it'd be hard to make a 3d game.

And votes aren't the way to go, how 'bout we list up pros and cons of each?

My Computer isn't wanting to run panda3d so i can't learn it.

I also agree with 3D Joe, we should do a pros and cons list

Panda 3d
pros
__________________________________________________________________________
lighting/shader system.

used to make disaster response scenarios for firefighter/police training.

seems to support high poly...oh just see for yourself.http://panda3d.org/showss.php?page=0&shot=ssg-antarean/antarean5

terranim8or type greyscale-to heightmap type thing.

cons
__________________________________________________________________________

well,check this out.

self.environ = loader.loadModel("models/arena2.egg")
self.environ.reparentTo(render)
self.environ.setPos(0,0,0)
course = self.environ.find('**/Plane')
course.setCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(1))
Wall = self.environ.find('**/Wall')
Wall.setCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(0))
Wall.hide()

self.Doll = Actor("models/VoodooDoll",
{"run":"models/VoodooDoll-runcycle",
"stand":"models/VoodooDoll-walk"})

That was only a third of the code to make a charachter walk up and down hills.

I consider that con to be a pro. Do you know how much code it would take to replicate that in
c++ and opengl? (Just a statement I mean no offence)

You have to download python and learn the python and panda 3d languages

Hey where did you learn JavaScript? I can't find a good place to learn it.

ok everybody i finished the alien head,black are eyes,skin color can be interchangeable i dont care,and its not subdivided.And i have another idea for the alien heads that use gene mutations,they would have like pods on the back of the heads filled with liquid that could be like giving them more speed or strength or whatever so if u want me to start making that one i will.

[alien head moved to pg 11]
