just to prove I'm still working on this: Here are some screenshots. This time the graphics are permanent, so this will show how the game will look like once it's finished.

 - An android version of oxo (java)  ACTIVE
 - A 3D collision detection library (axe) RELEASED! (topic)(screenshot)(more recent screenshot)(screenshot of it being used in a tilemapper)
Spoiler For inactive:
- A first person shooter with a polygon-based 3d engine. (z80, will probably be recoded in axe using GLib) ON HOLD (screenshot)
 - A java MORPG. (pc) DEEP COMA(read more)(screenshot)
 - a minecraft game in axe DEAD (source code available)
 - a 3D racing game (axe) ON HOLD (outdated screenshot of asm version)

For some reasons the wall bricks don't seem aligned between each sides of the textures, but otherwise it looks good so far.

I know that. I've been editing the texture coordinates manually becouse the coordinates generated by blender were entirely wrong. This was the best i could make them. Also the center of the texture is brighter than the edges which gives an ugly effect. Maybe it will give better results when I use a good camera instaed of the one of my cellphone.

AH ok sorry to hear about BLender. And a suggestion for textures would be to try using ones that are generated with softwares or something, so the brick effect, for example, is not curved or something. Camera lenses tend to give walls some sort of circular effect sometimes.

just too prove I'm still working on this: here's a screenshot of the terain in the cretaceous period. The terrain can easily be made bigger because only a few tiles are loaded at the same time.

I just tested a slightely updated multiplayer system (you can now see each other (as white cylinders (placeholder))), with a friend who lives a few kilometers away, and it worked. This means that the next public demo will almost certainly be a multiplayer game.

<necro>
This project had been on hold for quite a long time, but now I'm going to pick this one back up. I finally started adding some gameplay, and now it's possible to harvest leaves, sticks and logs from trees. You can't use them yet, but it's a start.

Here's a video to show how the current system works:


And as you see, the graphics are still pretty basic. I promise that I'll improve them after I've added most of the gameplay.

Currently, harvesting works by right-clicking the tree until it falls over. You need to have an axe in the inventory to do this. Then when it fell over, you can take the leaves by right-clicking the tree again (leaves will be food for herbivores in later versions) and you don't need an axe for it. For harvesting the sticks and the trunk, you need an axe or a saw. When the tree is fully harvested, a stump will appear and the tree will regenerate in approximately 35 seconds.

If you have a better idea of how to harvest resources, please post.

The graphics seems to have improved a lot, though. They went from half-Life '90s style to more early Xbox 360 for grass and trees. Of course for the building and the car that's a different matter but I'm glad this is progressing again. :)
