http://www.echon.org News Mon, 06 Jun 2005 00:47:40 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Goto the EGL downloads page and get it. A couple release notes: * Shader language HAS CHANGED — old addons will no longer work. The addons will be updated soon. * “*.pak” loading defaults OFF now. PKZ loading added (just a zip file), and *.pkz always loads. The changelog is over 120 lines long, ... http://www.echon.org/?p=87 I’m expecting to have it uploaded this weekend. I don’t have enough time after work during the week to bundle and upload it all, so I’m putting it off (again). I don’t work on Fridays so it should be up early Friday, if I don’t manage to get the ... http://www.echon.org/?p=86 The site move is delayed until I get a new server to put it on. The release date isn’t going to change though. I only have a couple bugs to iron out and one last feature I want to add before releasing, so I’m expecting to be done well before ... http://www.echon.org/?p=85 The next release of EGL will come when the new site for EGL is up at the end of the month. I’ve made significant code changes so don’t feel comfortable even releasing another beta. http://www.echon.org/?p=84 Well I’m tearin this bitch down. I’ve got a Doom3 mod to code, a game engine I’m writing from scratch, and work fulltime. EGL will be moving to www.quakedev.com. I’m probably not going to be making many more EGL releases after the next few though. I just don’t have the ... http://www.echon.org/?p=83 Zorius announced the release of his new Quake2 map Strogg citadel. The map ships in 2 versions, one for “vanilla” Quake2 and another with high resolution textures especially for Quake2 engine mods like Quake2maX, EGL etc. Visit his page for more information, screenshots and downloads. http://zorius.dionussos.com http://www.echon.org/?p=82 I’m in the middle of putting the Q3 shader language into EGL — since it’s better and stuff — and I’m still not done. It will be at least a few days coding before it is. EDIT: Particle/decal shaders now using the new shader system that appears to be fully functional. Shouldn’t ... http://www.echon.org/?p=81 Well, I just spent a few hours re-writing my rendering backend (what renders EVERYTHING) to a more optimal Quake3 style. It’s now fully optimized to use multitexture. I have to ditch the older shader language to take full advantage of it, so in the next release all of your shaders ... http://www.echon.org/?p=80 Yes, I finally got around to putting it up here. Click “Documents” on the left to view the shader documentation. I will no longer package it with releases because it’s here anyways, and it’s annoying to have to update BOTH of them when I make a change to the shader ... http://www.echon.org/?p=79 ETA: 19 or 20th This will be the last beta for the 0.1.8 series, afterward the “stable” release will be out. Check the forums for more information on what has been done thus far. http://www.echon.org/?p=78
