I've seen the beta. At first I was like "oh, the beta had been released february 15, 2013... Probably development stopped :(". But then I realized this is probably some kind of everlasting beta which is being in devel for 2 years ;)

I'll take a look for sure!

Yeah, the game was absolutely enjoyable, at least as much as the first one. There are a few issues with the design of some levels, which are just so huge that people can hit you from places where you have no chances to return fire, but the overall experience is nice. Lots of variety too, which is di...

Growth is not exponential but quadratic: in "standard" situations you should see the computational cost to go like (# of monsters)^2, so doubling the models reduces performance by 4; the important thing is that the models must be randomly placed and not "almost already sorted" ot...

JPH could you do a benchmark for me? :)
Try to see what the differences are if you turn on or off the depthsorting in your code, and see if the differences are really big or not-so-terrible.

I though it was.... Well, in the code, there are variables to make it read only ;) Not used, somehow, but should not be so terrible to get it right.

Undo/Redo

Maybe it's finally time to implement and "undo" button in the editor... I fear that we can't appeal to the public that much if some new user accidentally deletes a bitmap or mesh that costed him some 20 minutes of work and might not notice the way to undo ;) having it only in the menu migh...

Yep, the noise function was discontinuous for negative numbers, we discovered this a while ago, maybe you forgot about this... I didn't bothered getting this to work, I just didn't realized that it was a fix needed anyway on the noise function! I can surely look into this when I'm getting back to Mi...

maybe this was more appropriate for the "off topic" section of the forum... However here there are no expert pascal developer except for Ville, you might ask him for the websites he learned from, might be a better idea. Anyway, let's just wait for him to answer here now, no need to spam hi...

Features: are the same explained for this: http://infohost.nmt.edu/~imcgarve/perlin_noise/ Octaves (Starting Octave and # of octaves values): Starting octave is the equivalent of zoom.

last time I checked I had to do nothing but fire up the exe.. It complained a lot but in the end worked (BTW: if you get stuck when opening a dialog, try pressing esc before powering down your PC)
I might give it a try with the latest vers to see what happens

I guess you noticed I'm late with the component... The fact is that we are not using Perlin Noise, we are using Simplex Noise, which is faster (expecially in 3D), better, with a smaller footprint, and cannot be made to tile. I was actually able to tile it but results were worse than I was expecting....

nice shot Ville! Hope we can get an array declaration and array in functions by release 2.0... Do you think this will be feasible? That would give the last big bit missing to scripts IMO.
Then we can try to publicize ZGE by any means I think!

then I'm REALLY curious to know when this new Delphi version will be out. In the mean time, Darwine could be a way to go, too... http://davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/ This is just a random result from searching "wine on macosx" on google. BTW: on linux under wine, the interface can ...
