Alternativa3D 5.0

Today, a group of developers of a platform for flash-games has provided several new demos based on a new version of its engine.


Here are the demos provided:



The developers also provided the technical characteristics of the engine:

• Signal system - the calculation is made only according to needs;
• BSP - high-quality sorting of polygons, “clear” plunge, no extra calculations;
• Polygon support;
• Re-use of layers when drawing (redrawing only changeable screen sections, polygons are independent when drawing);
• The hierarchy of objects;
• Recalculation of matrices, coordinates, UV only when changing;
• Perspective correction - dynamic triangulation;
• Collision detection system.

And the features planned for adding were announced:

• Dynamic lighting and shadows (point and directional light sources);
  Relief lighting ;
  Parallax mapping ;
  Automatic UV-mapping ;
  Sprites, 3D sprites ;
  Sprite lighting ;
  Texture objects ;
  Imitation Global Illumination ;
  Sprites prerender system (creating sprites on a server based on a 3D model);
  Animation system (including inverse kinematics);
  Interactivity of 3D objects ;
  Simulation of physics.
