| Post subject: | Extension tutorial? |
This is more of a suggestion than a question, but would someone mind documenting or explaining the Horde3D extension interface? Maybe write a tutorial that creates a simplistic one? Following the terrain extension seems like it only shows a specific use of the interface, what else can be done? And surely, not all extensions should be coded like the terrain one.  Thanks. |

Pretty much you create a Node subclass, renderer what you want with pure OpenGL, and register it with the resource system Dark_Kilauea wrote: Following the terrain extension seems like it only shows a specific use of the interface, what else can be done?

The only difference you probably want to consider is externalising most of the extension. My planet renderer uses an extension module to render tiles - everything else is run outside the engine using callbacks, which allows me to keep all of the logic engine-independent. |
