TOOLS
AND EDITORS THAT EXTEND OUR ENGINE:
We
have made many tools and editors that are
designed to help us in the process of game
creation:
Spellscape
Location Compiler
This
editor is the heart of the engine. It
transforms any "polygon soup" into
a Spellscape Location file or a Random
Location Tile file. It deals also with light
precalculation, walkable surface
determination and hsr optimizations. Every
aspect of the location can be controlled
with scripted functions.
Current
Version: 0.9
BETA
Spellscape
Visual Editor
The
job of this program is to combine single
frames into animations, so that game engine
can interpolate smoothly between any frame
and sequence.
Current
Version: 1.1
Spellscape
Particle Editor
It
is very easy to create complex particle
effects with this editor. An effect can
consist of any number of emmitters and each
emmiter can have any number of variours
forces applied. Inserting an effect into
game is as easy as calling one function with
the name of the effect storage file.
Current
Version: 0.8
