Rage 3D

Yep that is correct! It's a saying we have when we open a beer. You being a Kiwi I assume you know the Castel Lager brand But I have been living in the USA for the last 6 years so I haven't had a Castle in a longgggggg time!

Sorry never heard of Castel Lager - and I am Dutch which makes it fairly easy to read Afrikaans.

Also I prefer Belgian dark beer to Lagers any day


Cheers

Hi I am new on this forum, spoke to McClaw a day ago and I am looking forward to the Rage engine as well.

Go Delphi! Go bokke! Castel Lager - Laat hy val waar hy wil!

Hey Bro Welcome to PGD

I'm still waiting for sorceforge to approve my project, so not sure when the code will be online, but I'm hoping for the best.

I finally managed to have a look at the source for Rage 3D. I have discovered that it supports Delphi 6 and up and Kylix (which is a pain for me as I only have Delphi 5 and Free Pascal).

That said it looks good, the screen shots and demos work well on my machine (which isn't fantstic). Keep up the good work.

what parts dont compile on delphi 5?

[technomage]

The DWS scripting system mainly, there are also quite a few references to Variants, Types and other units/functions which are only available in delphi 6 and up. (isnan being a prime example, I've yet to see a Delphi 5 version of this)

I did try replacing these units a functions with Delphi 5 equivelents but the getting started tutorial demo just crashed out on startup.

I don't know if Delphi 5 support is a priority for this engine :?: If so I could help out to make it compatable, same goes for Free Pascal.

[tux]

variants is only used in the scripting, and that has been "unplugged" from rage for the moment.

cant help with isnan though as i cant find my delphi 5 cd

also what dll did you try? Rage3D.dpr or RagePhysics.dpr?

[technomage]

I tried Rage3D.dpr, after I made all the changes and ran one of the demos it just crashed.

Like I said , if supporting Delphi 5 and free pascal in on the cards then I will be willing to put some time into making the modifications.

Hey dude

Yea, D5 compilation is hard cause I dont have a copy of it any more.

I'm glad that the demos run on your PC though. :lol: :lol:

What is the spec of your PC btw?
