Mupolis engine, known earlier as Virtual City, site moved!

i cannot extract the file, winrar says its corrupt!

[don_Pedro]

I don't know why, it was compressed with 7zip, maybe thats a check? Or you tried to download once again?

Look at the filesize if it is smaler than 4,25 MB you should redownload it. If the dl doesnt work, you can use a dl managet, for me it has worked then.

It's your server doing that, the file is OK if it's downloaded in it's entirety.

Took me half a dozen times to get it all. Also your bandwidth is going to go through the roof if everyone tries multiple times.

Anyway, good work on getting the memory usage down, even more impressive than before now.

well done

btw

i like the way ur engine applies reflections on certain textures but not the whole model how did u do it?

it would be usefull as it can be used for normal maps as well

[don_Pedro]

It's strange thing with this downloading, I can download it with no problem in less than minute, but I'm in Poland and the server is in Poland. Anyway I will change the server for something more professional, I hope soon.

The entire geometry is made of cubes, on wich you may apply several deformations. In editor you may add or delete cubes, define textures of their walls, some walls may be switched of, and finally you may set up deformations. At the moment this way are made even trees, what is definitely not good solution. Generally you select cubes moving cursor by keyboard, maybe there's better way but I couldn't find it. You can also select more than one cube at the time and modify them together, you can also copy the selection. That's all what is implemented at the moment in the editor.
There's no problem with reflections, I just use EMT_REFLECTION_2_LAYER material type and that works well.

There should be better server tomorrow and also few other good news .

[don_Pedro]

I was wrong, the new server is already working ! The great news are the engine got sponsoring now, so it have now own domains, better server, and support. there's also a chance for commercial projects based on the engine but it still will be released as opensource for everyone in future!

I will soon relaese updated demo, but all of you, who couldn't download it successfully before, surely can do it now. Following addresses of new website are working -
www.mupolis.com , www.mupolis.org .

Just borrowed a GeForce 6800Ultra.. else exactly same as other setup (below). Now get between 31 and 97 fps

Just downloaded and tried this.. looks like an amazing concept.. cant wait for it to be open-source released!

Getting 24-52fps on AMD Socket A 1300Mhz, with an old Matrox G400 MAX runnig dual monitors, 512Mb SDRAM, MS XP.

Had no issues with getting stuck / falling through the ground etc. - probably down to the slower frame rate?

Keep us up-to-date with your progress!

Really like this! Looking good already. Could you post the editing environment? I'd die to test it and add some stuff. I'd also like to import my own textures. If it was possible to import Quake 3 models that would be awesome, since they're so easy to export with free tools. I'm an artist and i'd love to work on this. For free!
