Do you think that it is possible to data our world level with Octree?

Don't know what you mean by "data our world", but if you ask if it's feasable to manage your entities with an octree in Blitz, then the answer is yes.

Yes, I'm french so I ceratainly don't use the good world. Thank you for your answer. I read few articales about Octree, and I'm sure that it could be possible!!

octree data structure is possible using types. Your individual enties or child entities could be stored in the tree and from thier the triangles and vertices could be stored. as far as using octree for visibility you would be able to hide show and turn collision on and off for entities but not individual triangles in a mesh.

Thanks Lilpuppy it's exactly what I want to do. I hope that it will work.
