What is sorta crazy is I was just thinking of a style I wanted to do that I called a 3D 8bit style. Found the keyword was "voxel"

Found this software:

Cool features in this game! Thanks for making it open source, so I can draw some ideas from it. I have a car demo level that has a free camera inside, I think it would be cool if you had that in your car.

I still have to play it a bit more. It would be easy to bump up the graphics with a model of a city or something with ambient occlusion baked in, a new car, and a little lighting enhancement. But it works! Nice. And Welcome also.

Here is that small project I just did:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/109 … 20Jump.zip

Right now I am using a box collision for the monkey, but the convex-hull bounding creates lag.

Well, I can run it on my PC. I can't get past the little mounds with the chains. Just too hard to jump.

It does have a little lag.

Would you mind uploading the project file? That way we can help more. I will be more than happy to help you.

Thanks Vegas. I'll download them today and test. How are you By the way?

I had to revisit this post, as I need this again, however, I am on a mac now and something as simple as:

if isCollisionBetween(box,trigger) then
        playSound(news)
    end

In the update function plays the sound only once (although it plays it after the collision is finished, not upon impact).

I wonder if the issue is a Windows thing? Or at least, I don't hear the repetitions if there are any.

Nope. It still skips

What is inside or outside of the game loop?

I've been off my maratis game. Hehe. Been using python to learn more programming methodology. Soon, I should be jumping into c++, and eventually using maratis for a project.

You going for it Anael?

I think that that is a good way to upgrade Maratis. When I get back to using Maratis, I will be more interested in making plugins, rather than modifying the engine itself (at least until another Update).

Section 1 is main ideas, using various languages as examples. Lua is one. I need to show various languages.

I will probably use python and lua for section 3 though. Python can be a scripting language, but it can surely be a programming language too.

Lua, more than likely, will be used as a scripting language.

This is a basic curriculum layout

Section 2 (Play):

Download different apps and software and play with them to see how programs work. (Microsoft Office, Blender 3D, Gimp)

Visit websites (Youtube,Facebook)

Play games

Use game engines (Maratis,Unity, Game Maker)

Example IDEs (XCODE,Eclipse,QT,Creator)

Example APIs (Twitter,Facebook)

Section 3 (Create):

Create a basic program using all learned principles, using your own algorithm.
Create your own unique program.

Smallers, are you using the city object as a floor? It'd be best to use a simple plane as a separate object.
