[Thegcs-devel] New Release

[Adam <ad...@co...>]

I'm making a new release today. I brought the whole thing into 3d, and
am working on integration to ODE for the next release. Please download
it and check it out.

[Thegcs-devel] Ode and Irrlicht--possible solution

[Adam <ad...@co...>]

Hello,
I almost have Ode working. The major sticking point, however, is
converting Irrlicht meshes to Ode trimesh array things. I can't seem to
get at the internal structure of the Irrlicht mesh from the .NET API.
Thus, I think we may need to write some C++ code and load it in as a
library or something.
I found something here <http://thomas.webtracker.ch/jahia/Jahia/pid/481>
about working with ODE and Irrlicht. It has an Irrlicht to Ode trimesh
converter. We basically need that wrapped in a nice dll. Does anyone
know enough C++ to code that?
Thanks,
Adam

i'm still interested in helping out.  the release is pretty cool, though it=
s
buggy.

[Thegcs-devel] The GCS

[Adam <ad...@co...>]

Hello,
Despite the lack of...well...anything, the GCS is *not* dead. Over
spring break, I've made major progress. However, spring break is almost
over, and I'm looking for more help. I've released a 2d simulating
"proof-of-concept" version, and have gotten something running in
Irrlicht that I haven't released. I wanted to get physics simulation in
easily, so I tried Tao's .net ODE binding, but I'm hung up on some kind
of missing type, and, moreover, I'm not entirely sure ODE's the right
choice anyway. I would like to know:
A) Weather anyone still wants to be involved in the GCS.
B) What you think of what I released.
C) How you think we should do physics.
Thanks,
@dam
