SOW?
BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/SOW?

Someone was asking me about free 3d engines for BMax the other day, and one of the ones I mentioned was Chris C's SOW ( Simple Ogre Wrapper. ) He asked me for the URL, and I gave him the site I had bookmarked, but there's nothing there any more. I can't find any messages from Chris in the past two months, and there are no threads about SOW either. I'm sure Evak mentioned it recently, so surely it can't be dead? |

I sent him a note about this thread, he hasn't been doing much Blitz for a while. |

He closed it all up because people were being rude; his web site went down because of hosting troubles, and he apparently received many unfair / demanding emails from people. Not sure what he's doing at this point, though. He seems to have chosen to ignore us, which is a bit of a shame as he was pretty good at what he did. I don't know why he didn't decide instead to just stick a price tag on SOW... I take it that people were pretty rough. Wise of him to put the foot down; just a bit of a shame he did it so suddenly. |

Ok, thanks guys. I'll tell the guy who asked to try MiniB3D then or just spend some cash and get TV3D then. |

I'm still supporting the (very) few people who were honest enough to make a modest donation. In the near future I'm supporting Ogre updates for SOW, but not too sure what to do with it... I spent that much time coding in C making Max modules that thats mainly what I'm unng now, that and the far from stella Linux support (I rarely use windows now-a-days) means I'm hardly using max at all. |
