A want to buy the engine but the WebSite do not work !

Does anyone have some news from Xors3D and do they continue the product ?

If case not, i still want to buy a licence, for the use of the existing one. If someone interested simply adress me a mail.

Website seems to be working fine here (accessed at 19:00 GMT).
I would advise against buying it (even if second hand), as development for it has stalled. It's just safer for you in the long run and more respectful of your investment.

Taken from a Xors3D forum thread:

Is project dead?

If you want a free alternative, try the SoftPixel Engine wrapper for Blitz3D. It even supports DX11.
It's the "SoftPixel Engine Wrapper" package here:

sadly, that wrapper is 3 years old and 10 versions past... :(


Kryzon(Posted 2013) [#5]
Hm, I didn't know that. It should be enough to play with at least, and it says on the "read-me" file that the wrapper supports DX11.

Then, once one wants to use the latest version of the engine one would have to ask Lukas for the source to his B3D wrapper; He can share it.
Then build the source of the wrapper with the latest release of the official engine, producing an updated DLL to use with the .DECLS for Blitz3D.

Same thing here.


Kryzon(Posted 2013) [#8]
Same here; I think that homepage is only active so people can access The Area (i.e. the forums).
