Klimt Port 0.1

[Tobriand]

Have a glance http://on.to/maulo - especially developers. No idea if anyone will make use of it, but it looks pretty nice to me, especially for a ver 0.1

yeah, correct me if I'm wrong but it seems to allow devs to use some open GL for 3D on GP32 one word : WOW ))

 

[Tobriand]

I thin that's what its all about, though I don't think its a full OpenGL implementation somehow. It looks potentially wow though... not that I've actually tried the test .fxe files to see how fast they run, but nevertheless

 

[Octavious]

well, the fxes are nice
hope we can get something out of this

[Octavious]

what types of games could be made or ported usin this?

~Octavious

 

[evil_king]

DOOM 3!!!!!!!!!

PS: (I'm kidding)

 

[Octavious]

lol
you picked just the right pic to go with that!
but really, what level of games are we talkin?

~Octavious

 

[Scott]

Half-Life 2 ofcourse. We have the leaked source right :lol: h34r:

 

[Octavious]

ok...
ha ha
but I really want to know, i get the jokes, now could i get an answer?

~Octavious

 

[Scott]

i dunno, i guess anything with low poly's and small textures. Possibly something like doom.

 

[cozmic]

I guess the gp32 COULD handel something as complex as quake 1?

 

[LHC]

We already have Quake :rolleyes:

 

[jlebrech]

Battalion would be cool, its has source, its made from cube primitives. its made with glut i think, so could be changed.

[Octavious]

what about sim copter?
is that open source?
that would be posable right?

rRootage (sources available) would be great, if transparencies are supported (and supported at a decent speed). Supposedly, a P166 running Windows in the background can handle it in high-res mode, with OGG music and all.

 

[El_Diablo]

could opengl support be used to make Doom faster, like Doomsday?

 

[rattboi24]

The only reason Doomsday is faster is because it has *HARDWARE* Opengl support. I mean, the OpenGL is accellerated by the video card. We have no video card, so everything is rendered in software. This means this will make absolutely nothing faster (as in speed of execution), but it *could* make a lot of stuff faster (as in time to port over).

It all depends on if the port is good and fast. If it is, some OpenGL games could be ported, probaby, but the OpenGL software renderer will always be slower than if someone made a custom 3d engine for gp32.
