where is the demo? i want to see it in action!
it looks great!

i shall post the demo as soon as the network play is smooth enough...
right now the demo is mired in physics bugs... and has a brute force server simulates all network model..

on the plus side.. got the "auto pilot" (fake TM) Flying AI for enemies working...

in other words.. when it is done

i really like the glider, but i also really dont like the terrain, it looks like terrains looked like a few years ago, the texture is _really_ fuzzy! but the glider, like i said, looks great

its great to see that you make progress with your game, wish i could show something too

the glider is a model that i found on the web..used just for prototyping... Vermeer's ship is much more kick ass..

I have uploaded a video of the terrain flight at http://www.etvig.com/blaze/showcase.html

the terrain was hacked up pretty quickly and the texture sucks... I am using the default irrlicht terrain which AFAIK does not support detail mapping.. I am implementing a detail mapped ROAM based Terrain which I hope to share with the community soon...

On the video the ship is stuttering a bit. Hope this isn't my fault.

hi niko,

I have not integrated the physics engine with terrain... so am forcing the ship to confirm to terrain, hecne the jitter

"Vermeer's ship is much more kick ass.."

Thanks a load...hehe... like certain Polycounter would say "I did put quite some love on it..."

I know I'll enjoy to play the game, or see the screenies

So, I'll keep looking at this side of the forum...

Looking totally schweeet!!! Can't wait to play a demo!

Ooh and deploy that render-to-texture technique to the terrain when u use boost... that would be schweet looking!

Wow, it's excellent! Looks beautiful.

It miss only a lightmap on the terrain texture.

The graphs are being very good. But don't you think 26 FPS is too slow? (The game I look this quite simple one (ship, land, skybox, shadows)).

terrain culling not turned on
