Note:
The feature list is subject to changes
if there is concern about one or more features and their usability.
Plz voice your oppinion and give feedback/ suggestions.
On a sidenote, this Engine will remain OpenSrc, it will be still MIT
but it wont reflect Torque3Ds image as the goal is to create something that enables the end user
to create a modern FPS Game with ease (at least when it comes to the Engine).

Created an orthogonal projection of the terrain and set it as a render to texture layer in a shader then output it to a bitmap gui controls texhandle

I've stumbled onto an rtt function in the terrain render cppCreated an orthogonal projection of the terrain and set it as a render to texture layer in a shader then output it to a bitmap gui controls texhandle
#107
are surprising.
A Question could that path the way for future stuff regarding RTT?
in combination with Gui render to objects/ models
like teh texture of a scope

hah thats great, the things that are hidden in the deep sea of Torqueare surprising.

#108
I just basically copied and changed to suit how the RTT functions in the postFx source code files work. Seems to of done the job I mean the minimap terrain is rendering to the bitmapctrl.
This is just a picture of the terrain, I know the math behind unit icon placement and I know how to implement it just need to try it out now see if I can get it working
12/04/2013 (7:21 am)
I don't know lol looks like it could, if this was sumhow taken into a material layer for say a sniper scope it could work , maybe , I'm not gonna commit myself to saying yes just yet lol I just basically copied and changed to suit how the RTT functions in the postFx source code files work.

The current status is that we got most of the things outlined/setup.
I actually planned todo a showcase blog before i go but we dont have enough to show yet so this has to wait.
Next week we should be ready to show some actual ingame footage
of shaders and a explenation of what is to come and what the plan for Greed is.
The current Developement Team
is listed @ www.moddb.com/company/7-sins/members
Do Note that some developement members are not listed since they havent yet joined our moddb group.
@all future participants/contributors
i wil reply to your e-mails as soon as possible

There is a reason why professional software you work with a lot, mostly uses a very neutral theme, like greytones.
I would suggest a theme build out of greytones and maybe orange and/or heavenlyblue, such colors are very comfortable to view at.

I am not happy with the skin suggested, a new skin would be cool, but not such an aggressive. Fully black is not comfortable to view at and if you add red it would be even more uncomfortable.

Can you please credit me with the over-shoulder cam? I wrote it for Kory and he confirms it in that resource thread.
#113
done, excuse the confusion
as it wasnt stated in the Resource itself and the comments are not the place where i would look for the author.
however it is corrected now
and if there is something else you wish to contribute to the cause,
we would be glad to include it.
thanks
@Duion
you arte right about the time, it might not really fit
we will see what can be done, after all Nils is open minded

The UI I'm going to provide will be in dark grey (not black) with a highlight colour sparsely used. I repeat that it will be different from the example because that's for an other project. It's a TIOLI thing, since I really don't have the time to do a market research upfront!

this is a open minded conversation and ppl tend to say what they think
and you are right - noone should judge upfront.
However it is good to see that ppl are giving feedback and now lets continue.
shall we ;)
@Mich
well you know how the stone rolls - there are so many to please that we tend to forget to speak up
and am glad that Nils is speaking up.

But if it's going to be a dark grey theme with sparse colors anyway, this sounds much better.
