Whats going on at BRL?

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/Whats going on at BRL?

What are you guys working on, and what are your plans for the future?

They're trying to get the undead nun unchained from the wall.

Probably still working hard at Max3D thing.

In fairness it is a long, hard, job to produce - tons and tons of testing and rewriting code - tweaking stuff, then several days later realising the tweaking was a waste of time.

Hopefully, they will at some point turn their attention back to Blitz3D in time to take on Cobra.

Probably trying to sort out the bugs in Blitz3d 1.94 so Cygnus can use it in his project. h, heh just saw 1.95 is out :)

Um, what? :P

Oh, you mean 1.94... Its fixed. Oh, you just saw it :)

Nobody But Mark and the other bloke (sorry forgotten his name) knows what's going on and after much prompting for just a sliver of information they remain completely silent.

Are we going to go through this again? :/

Mark posted a couple of weeks ago with a progress report, of sorts. Something about him needing quiet time to sort out how to organize stuff in max3D, er, I can't quite remember coz I'm not interested in BlitzMax.

Anyway, just search through his most recent posts and you'll find it.

most likely working on the bmax 1.18 update that mark mentioned an hour ago

Hi all,

Max3D is coming along, but is at kind of a strange point at the moment.

I know how to do all the neato stuff I want to do, but am struggling a bit with how to present it all as a dead cool, multi purpose game engine API. I'm confident it'll happen, but it will require some serious 'quiet time' on my part.

I do plan on releasing little demos here and there as devlopment progresses (and a public 'beta test' of sorts is not completely out of the question), but really, it's still too early to be thinking about this stuff at all.

Bye,

And if you want any other info why dont you look at recant post (check his profile)- he says bmax 1.18 is
(coming soon)


I think "Mark Sibly" should have a webcam - then we can watch what he is doing.

Anyone up for that idea - I think it would be quite interesting - he could have cameras in every room of his house - like in 'Big Brother'.

Instead of waiting for Max3D - we could just spend all day watching 'The "Sibly" Show'.


I'm casting my vote for 'The "Sibly" Show' - how about you?

me, i'm REALLY glad to see b3d 1.95, it's just what i was waiting for. As for max3d, that sucker can wait, I've got my hands full with b3d as it is...

Are we going to go through this again? :/
Oh come on, it's been at least two weeks since the last one.

I'm casting my vote for 'The "Sibly" Show' - how about you?
Well not to insult anyone, but I hardly think Mark Sibly's day-to-day life is that exciting. Ofcourse, the same can be said about Big Brother, so I'm probably not the right one to ask.

"I know how to do all the neato stuff I want to do, but am struggling a bit with how to present it all as a dead cool, multi purpose game engine API. I'm confident it'll happen, but it will require some serious 'quiet time' on my part."

I don't know why, but just hearing stuff like that makes me
happy. Just to know that something has been
happening (even if slowly) makes me content.

I'm casting my vote for 'The "Sibly" Show' - how about you?


Each week he can nominate some new features that he can include and we can vote for which ones we want to see.

Nah, it is just going to be a fly-on-the-wall show.

I want to see what he eats and stuff like that.

new zealand lamb

puki, must you be so creepy?

I want to see what he eats and stuff like that.
Whatcha want, a toilet cam?

Don't ask! :P

What was this thread about again?

what's going on at BRL

.....

I know......


;)

yawn...

Amon, please edit. I've had a stretch of several weeks without having to censor anyone and I don't see why your disrespectful postings / special behavior should spoil it.

Aww comeon, That one's funny!


ok ok, change it....

Just ban Amon, that'll make things a bit more peaceful.

Ban all of us. That sounds like fun.

Amon, please edit.

Why is is that Skidracer will post that but, but no one will answer the question in the title?

GW, there are at least 2 possible reasons for that:

1) that the question is already answered.
2) that the question cannot yet be answered.

in either case it is still a fair request.
Amon, grow UP!

Edited. I was only trying to be funny. :/

Humour's not appreciated around here, only on-topicness.

Since skid is clearly keeping an eye on this thread, let's see if I can divert his attention to a thread that fulfills his desire for specificity.
