[updated] Horde3D 0.14.0 Mac SDK Also a big thanks to swiftcoder from me for doing the port! @Rompa: Horde should definately run on your X2900, it even works on an ATI X1300 and the Chicago sample should run on a 9600. I doubt that the engine is the problem but pro...

Horde3D 0.12 brings cross-platform compatibility I think I know why it crashes when hitting F1. The app tries to enter fullscreen mode with a resolution of 1280x1024. If you have a widescreen monitor the available video modes are different. I will have to handle that in the code...

Horde3D 0.12 brings cross-platform compatibility Thanks for the feedback. This is strange, I never had such problems under XP. Must be something with the SDL if it happens on key presses. Does anyone else experience this problem?

Horde3D [0.10.0] released @Mr E: I'm glad to hear that :) @simply: I'm not quite sure because I haven't written the wrapper myself, but since it is just a thin wrapper around the Horde dlls I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work. BTW, Horde is currently only compa...

Horde3D (Next-Generation Graphics Engine) Released Thanks for bringing the discussion back to a constructive point! First off, I'm no expert concerning Ogre but from what I have seen it is a great and powerful graphics engine. So if I make a wrong assumption about the Ogre philosophy please tell m...

Horde3D (Next-Generation Graphics Engine) Released I'm very curious to hear what this standard is because I couldn't find much about that. If you listen to experts they all agree that next-gen is all about rich details and increased immersion for the player (Gamasutra Next-Gen Podcast). And for that...

Horde3D (Next-Generation Graphics Engine) Released Next-Generation is not only meant as a slogan. If you make a game it will probably take you at least a year and then most people will have the required drivers. And btw, I think most gamers know how to upgrade drivers. Many games require the la...
