Yeah its a spotlight. ThanksThis looks amazing!
Is that yellow wire-frame cone the lighting source?

It looks nice. Unfortunate that you have to do it "for school," though I guess for some people a grade and turn-in date are motivation to actually finish (a goal very few people actually meet.)
Ha, interesting music taste in the demo video.
Yeah, I made it my selfArce wrote:You have a Red Alert background? Lulz.
When the model turns red it meen that its selected but it was just for testing.Arce wrote:So, what's up with the red flickering? I didn't quite get it...Let us know when you've got any updates, want help, etc. I don't mind explaining theory in a nutshell, but I don't have time to actually "help," so sorry!
I think it take too much CPU. If I have a landscape and some models it would be like 30 fps for me. If I choose low quaility on shadows I have like 60 fps. And I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FW21E wich is not that old computer. I wount use leadwerks that much more just because of that. There is so many good free engines like Panda 3D wich is great.That looks really awesome! How do you like the Leadwerks? I keep looking into it cause it seems to have nice features, but I haven't seen enough code samples to be sure.
Panda3D is really good, I actually wrote the audio tutorial there. I don't use it at the moment because I wanted to use C++ instead of Python (which is possible in Panda, but most people are against it unless you're modifying the source), and I wanted something that had no audio functions, so I could work completely separately with other audio APIs. But Panda is very efficient, really intuitive, and the people on the forums are immensely helpful.Christer wrote:I think it take too much CPU.
