Are you sure the doggie can't be used somehow? It would look great in a trailer for the game . If it messes up the camera projection maybe it can be rendered separately to a rendertarget without changing the main game camera.

Real nice stuff . The doggie and the moving background in particular. It is an impressive indicator on how much time you have invested in this project when you have all this "extra material" that is currently not even in the game.

Very nice guardian video . I like the inner99 name too.

It makes me glad to see someone has the perseverance to build something this cool using ZGE.

Thanks for the update.

I think it is cool with a Chinese name but it makes it a bit harder to find with google for non-Chinese users. Well, any webpage etc counts as "marketing" in my book, maybe I've worked in commercial industries too many years :) Indeed it might be the low resolutions that cause the poor com...

Nice. The info text is good. Do you intend to market it by its Chinese name or will you call it "Butterfly"? The caption text under the videos do not center below the video if I maximize the window in Firefox. The videos do seem far too heavily compressed. It could use some wow-factor but ...

Ah yes, the topic of windowed mode and pixellation often pops up in #ZGameEditor To me, it seem that if you run the game full screen on a big monitor (20" or higher) then the cutscene graphics does not do themselves justice, because the pixels become so large that it is hard to appreciate the ...

Thanks! You know already I'm a fan of this game. The story (what I can understand of it :) ) and art of the cutscenes is fantastic. The shooting action is excellent too. I noticed it starts by default in fullscreen now. I wonder if it's not better to default in windowed mode? It makes the art look b...

Yes, indeed everything is rendered in every render pass . So you need to test CurrentRenderPass everywhere to use it like you want. If you have ideas on how to improve this feature, go ahead. It has not been used much as far as I know (but it is quite powerful feature).

Another important advantage of inline functions is when one or several of the arguments to a function is a constant, this adds more opportunities for optimization. Using the function "min" from above: float x=min(1,2); After inlining the compiler transforms to this: float x=1 <= 2 ? 1 : 2;...

Aha, sorry this was debug info I forgot to exclude. Fixed now. Please download again.

Thanks for testing, this should be fixed now: http://www.zgameeditor.org/files/ZGameEditor_beta.zip

New build: http://www.zgameeditor.org/files/ZGameEditor_beta.zip You can now tag functions with the "inline" keyword to inline them. inline float min(float v1, float v2) { return v1 <= v2 ? v1 : v2; } This means that every function calling this will inline the function itself , so there is...

There are some limitations about basemodel inheritance. Try this variant that uses a Vec3 variable to hold the color and a library to set it. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?> <ZApplication Name="App" Caption="ZGameEditor application" FileVersion=&q...

Looks very nice! Another feature that adds professionalism and polish to this game.

I've noticed this too, it is annoying. I will fix it.
