| I for one am using minib3d for games have a look at ( http://www.blitzbasic.com/logs/userlog.php?user=26&log=1651 ) I was wondering who else was using it for mainstream games? |
| ||
| I am using it for a game I'm working on, though Im not sure if its mainstream. Here's what I am up to with it... http://urbaninteractive.wordpress.com/ |

| I've been using it for a few weeks or so, and really like it. In fact my playing about with it has spawned the following: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DlD9JzJ5tg which isn't too far from being released i guess. a month or so maybe. Fingers crossed Steam will have me again... Cheers Charlie |

| @ Charlie. Looking very nice :) @ EdzUp. Didn't this start off life in Blitz3D? If so how did you find the migration of code over to Bmax? Did the lack of Aligntovector affect your game? |

| @ EdzUp. Didn't this start off life in Blitz3D? If so how did you find the migration of code over to Bmax? Did the lack of Aligntovector affect your game? Yes it did indeed start off in Blitz3d, the problem I had there was I had loads of calls for other platforms to be supported. Max being cross platform allows me to release to a wider audience, also DX7 engines are dead tbh support for them with the latest drivers is flaky at best (IMHO with my ATI drivers :s). The Align to Vector code isnt really an issue as im sure there will be some code somewhere to demonstrate the command or what it does that I can convert to max. As for converting the project I had to 'recode' the entire project to get it to work perfectly max doesnt load Blitz3d code and there are loads of commands that arent in max at all. On the 3d front minib3d does an amazing job at allowing programmers that have little or no 3d experience learn about 3d and use a free engine to make a game that they can release across the OS board so to speak. |

| We use it for our next product. It ain't perfect and I'm modify(ing/ied) it a bit to get spline interpolation for the bone movements, Show/hide surfaces and to be able to modify textures. |
| ||
| I use it for a multiplayer fps and it works verry well. |
| ||
| Hi all, When you create multiplayer fps, would you use any external network module, (eg. RakNet)? Thanks in advance |
| ||
| I use Brucey's Raknet mod with MiniB3d. You can get the mod from here! I use Subcommander to download, wich you can get from here! You can find more info on this page! |

| I use it quite a long time now, but my first official game will be: http://www.blitzforum.de/upload/file.php?id=5229 http://www.blitzforum.de/upload/file.php?id=5743 http://www.blitzforum.de/upload/file.php?id=5643 greetings |

| Thanks, Ferret. |
| ||
| I wanted to use MiniB3D as well for my games, but I switched to Blitz3D SDK for now cause of a memmory leak I got with just some simple code. It also seems that for some reason the Blitz3D SDK dll uses less memmory compared to MiniB3D. Still I hope to see MiniB3D improve because of the crossplatform option. |
| ||
| I am using it, though heavily modifying it as I go to suit my needs and tidying it up. I like it because it seems easy to follow and pull apart so far. |

| Hey Flemmonk it would be great if you could post any improvements you have made and share it with the community. That way it can continue to grow :) |
