Quite interesting - maybe you could add three things (shouldn't be that hard to do at all :) ) so it's "ready out of the box": Add a bounding box that limits the camera's movement (ignored if set to the default NULL; min/max zoom defined by bounding box too?). Bounding Box is there. I jus...

Don't do it yet :) I discovered a major Bug. Apparently, the particle system was not affected by the Camera. Meaning that, particles where not always facing the camera (as they should really, since they are billboards). I'm not sure why (maybe a leftover of some SVN changes I'm not aware of), but ev...

Thanks for the tip. But I've implemented my own procedural textures, so I really won't use "any" prerendered media :) (More or less...)

p.s.: I know the planet's textures look "wrong". They are just placeholders.

Trains-fuel(they arnt old fassioned and use coal anymore), and they use a 50x the amount a car uses because they have to lug around the trains everyone sits in Uhm. Never heard of Electric Trains?

After some experiments, results are these:

win32 + codeblocks + mingw32

Compiling the cegui library was a major PITA, but I was successfull. Now I just need to fix the event pusher and a few rendering problems (has you can see from the screenshot).

Oh, thanks :) That solved a nasty bug I was having.

Anyway, I'll soon (tm) upload a new version of the camera, with the XML configuration and the interpolated transition implemented.

Glad to have been helpful ;)

An regarding the other problem... Maybe it has something todo with Z-Culling? You can probably adjust that by tweaking your camera's Far and Near values. Not sure though.

... Real-life relative sizes... This is impossible to implement. I mean this is impossible to implement to stay project interesting -- it is because indeed: - planets so far from each other; - planets very very small relatively to distances; - the Sun is very big relatively to all other planet size...

And you're not the only one. Judging from my experience, i'd say choose a college degree ANYTIME. No matter how useless/difficult you may find it, you'll regret it if you don't at least try. It all depends on how courses are organized: for example, here in Switzerland, all technical degrees last 4 y...
