Hi there,

I've been busy creating a 3d level editor called DeleD. You can create your own objects and manipulate their vertices, edges, polygons and textures. Various manipulation routines (move/scale/rotate/mirror/split) are available and more will be build. Also, DeleD saves its data into simple-to-understand ASCII files so 3d engine writers can easily use them in their own projects. In the future, more fileformats will be supported.

Feel free to visit http://www.gamefortress.com/delgine for more info and download version 0.7 beta.

Just my 2 cents...

Bye,
JeroenNL

Yes, it will remain free and it's constantly under development. I will add a few extra functions before releasing version 0.8 beta (which is totally different from version 0.7 already btw). Then I'm going to work on texturecoordinate manipulation routines in version 0.9. And version 1.0 will support Constructive Solid Geometry functionality (CSG). At least, that's the plan.

I'm looking for some feedback in order to improve the program. Any comment appreciated!

As soon as I try it,I'm gonna give you a wishlist as well as my comments on the workflow

Alot of people jump in the level edition software idea with the only idea in mind to make money from us poor hobbyists

In fact,paying close to 200$ for a 'game programming language' that uses BSP,is very uncommon NOT to get a bsp editor with it...

DBS should be ashamed,as much as me who probably can't code one

Thanks, a wishlist is exactly what I'm looking for. Of course, I don't guarantuee I will implement everything on it. I will use it to determine which functions are greatly appriciated. Therefore, I need as many wishlists as I can get.

Feel free to send comments to my personal emailaddress as stated on the DeleD site.

Any chance you will be supporting DPpro with .x, collision and light maps?

Excuse my ignorance, but what is DPpro?

X files: I would like to support .x files but as I'm using OpenGL for rendering, I'm not really sure how to implement it as .x was developed for DirectX. I'll investigate though. I will add support for ASE and OBJ (maybe 3ds too).

Collision: do you mean collision detection? That would be something to implement in a 3d engine, not an editor I think.

Light maps: chances are that I am going to implement lightmaps. I'm working together with a 3d engine developer (as can be read on the DeleD site) and as soon as he's completely sorted out the way he's going to handle lights, I'll implement it in DeleD too.

if you can tell us or add a help file to the program telling us it wood be very ues full.

I've downloaded and checked it out. Its very easy to grasp and very fast. If you could implement .3ds or .x exporting, that would be excellent.

Keep the good work going!

Thanks for the comments.

About the fileformat: I don't store the normal values right now as they are computed at runtime. So I myself don't have a need to store the normals in the file. But if others do want the normals, please let me know (with a good motivation)! It shouldn't be really hard to get them into the file as well.

About 3ds and x: see my other post in this thread. Btw, is .X implementation possible in OpenGL? Isn't X mainly meant for directx?

Version 0.8 will be very different compared to 0.7. I've added various editing modes: vertice,edge,polyon,face and object with various functions within those modes. Question: what kind of functions would you like to see within these modes?

X is just a format.
although it is the DX internal format, there is no reason why a programm shouldn't be able to arrange the data in the way the X format does
