The above textured surfaces are normal level blocks, which have the same material assignes as the cube-model in the center

Thanks guys for the comments!
The next chance to play this will be a public beta session that we hope will start in summer still, so not too long into the future!

For textures, we often use simple Paint (16x16 pixel tiles are surprisingly easy to make there). I've also tried the free edition of Graphics Gale, which is pretty nice

Here's a video - I hope you like it!


... Uhm, I'm not posting too much on this, right? You guys would tell me if I post too much about this?

as always your game looks frickin amazing subscribed to your YT channel just now Spread the movie you posted around to some colleagues here at work, when the Demo comes out, I think we'll all have a go at it!

Looking forward to play it!

I just released the new version of my MapBuilder Editor. Have fun with it, of course for free

You can check also the pathfinder demo, whose development screenshots and videos I posted here earlier. It's inside the editor, you can control 120 units in 4 groups. Please note it is not a finished system at all, but works on any terrain, if no long walls or too large entities are placed. I would be interested in how fast or slow it runs on your pc...

I am still working on my CEGUI plugin. It is allmost ready for release.
I need help with two points:

- I need to create the documentation. Where can I get this ugly gamestudio
documentation stylesheets? Is there any good (free) tool out there which helps
creating a documentation?

- I need to create a demo, to show off the CEGUI features. Do you have an idea
what kind of demo/project would be good for a gui demonstration?

GS Stylesheet: http://www.conitec.net/beta/css.css

Use any HTML Editor, or better, write a script to output HTML. Then combine to a chm or something. (If you want to keep the GS Style).


Look at other UIs and their presentation (Unity Asset Story, Ogre Wiki, etc)

I hope you'll insert automatic panel adjustment for different screen resolutions. So if I place panel lets say at "pos_x = 10" and "pos_y = 400", whatever I change resolution runtime, panel should stay at the proper position, updating it's X and Y automatically.

Better yet, add springs and struts because not always is scaling/repositioning the right solution.

CEGUI has two positioning methods.
The unified positioning and absolute.
with the unified system you can align
the window to the left/right/top/bottom/center
side und use an relative offset to
define the distance to the border.
you can also use exact pixel offsets,
or a mix between relative and absolute
positioning sizing is possible too.
So yes, you can position your widgeds
resolution independent - or, if you don't like
this - not.

The premade skins are ugly, so I created a Win7 lookalike
skin.

Working on the next step ...
