COOOOL!

does this engine take classic or ppc fuel to run?

Torque is a utility to create videogames ?.. is it right ?.. or is simple a guide that explain " how to " create a videogames ?..

If it is a utility is it available also for the amiga os 4.0 ?

@Shadow:

Wow, that looks promising! Keep up the good work!

The buttons, stretch window widget look like standard windows widgets, so what is running on AmigaOS4? The game server or the complete client engine?

What games runs on this game engine?

What you see in the photo is the game engine (client/server) running native on OS4. It uses SDL and OpenGL so I can only make it run in fullscreen, otherwise I would have taken the photo in windowed mode on workbench.

The buttons and stuff looks like windows because the GUI skin used in the demo game is very similar to windows.

Games that run on TGE:
Tribes 2 and many many more found on http://www.garagegames.com

Wow. If this could be made to work on OS4 then it would really help solve the games issue.

If existing Torque engine games could be easily ported over then this would be very useful to getting more interest in OS4.

How long do you think it would take to port fully?

Yeah, tell us more about your progress. When can we expect to hear more... It looks very promising.

Well just last night I managed to get TGE to render the 3D world by fixing some issues in MiniGL. But there are still some bugs to fix, as I get alignment exceptions.

There is still no audio. TGE uses OpenAL with EAX extensions, but the current Amiga OpenAL does ofcourse not have EAX extension, so currently I cannot compile with audio enabled.

In the engine some platform specific stuff is still missing, like font handling. TGE caches fonts, so for now I am just using the cached fonts created on a Windows machine.

Tonight I will post a photo of the "buggy" 3d world rendering.

Great! Can't wait to see it!

How come you edited my post and not created one of your own?

enjoy: video

That's impressive. How come you are porting it to Amiga.
