Xreal project

Today i found xreal-project
http://xreal-project.net/?page_id=15

XreaL will be a non-commercial multiplayer only first person shooter based on a heavily modified Quake 3 Arena engine (id Tech 3). The aim is to push the rendering technology until it can be compared with current commercial titles and then to produce a playable Total Conversion.

They did great job with engine to support many SFX features i dream about acquire Xreal team minds into developing W:ET. Focused for rendering engine because W:ET has already good gameplay :smiley: We only need tune old graphic to meets current hardware features.

Does anybody has skill to inspire Xreal team for W:ET mod ?

ET engine is closed source.

Rudi - but this :

http://wiki.splashdamage.com/index.php/Wolfenstein:_Enemy_Territory_SDK Isn’t enough to tweak render engine , SFX ?
Also NoQuarter source is available http://www.shitstorm.org/noquarter/wiki/index.php?title=No_Quarter_Source

TC:E team in the past improved ET engine so much so Xreal with great experience maybe can do something for ET community :slight_smile:

Correct, it isn’t enough to tweak the rendering engine…

i m thinking sinca a long time about a open source engine for et -
but there are maaany things to code -
i think its possible to make it - but you need a bigger crew - many coders + the community must support it with maps…
maybe anytime

We allready got it started with the Evolution engine. netcode works, startscreen comes up etc. but the programmer has stopped programming it :frowning: to bad cause he said there would be some nice effects like bloom (?) and no more ugly pixels…well not so many more :slight_smile: If there are serious programmers…who knows …:slight_smile:

(But its 100% doable but also a lot of small-part programming afai understood…)

Trust me, what’s planned for ET will be worth a lot more than a rewritten engine.

(system) #8

ischbinz, what engine did you have in mind ?
Maybe we could make some contact if your serious about it :slight_smile:
(I could ask the source if you are 100% interested… :slight_smile: )

ischbinz thinks about the Irrlicht Engine:
http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net

Hi Berzerker,

i allready made a little contact to him/her. I know Irrlicht only by name.
Gotta take a deeper peek later on.

that engine doesn’t look really good, unlike xreal…

(stealth6) #12

irrlicht is only a graphics engine, so useless without the ET engine source?

(Paul) #13

When rudi says this, believe him! I think we should wait :slight_smile:

  • ET Source is going to be released if zenimax agreed, I heard…
(IndyJones) #14

pardon my ignorance… but who is rudi and zenimax in et world?

(system) #15

Hi Indy,

i only know Zenimax (i guess…). Afaik they bought ID Software

(Zer0Cool) #16

Trust me, what’s planned for ET will be worth a lot more than a rewritten engine.

Are there any more information?

(Rudi) #17

There will be once SplashDamage has reviewed the proposal.

(system) #18

Can you at least tell us a bit more about wich proposal and from whom or something ?
At least share the info (if you got them) and don’t only throw some bones…or do we have to write the SD staff where they released some info we missed ?

(Rudi) #19

Why the impatience?? We’re still working on final details so contacting SD won’t really make a difference, nothing is released yet.

(system) #20

I ain’t impatient :wink: Just wondering :stuck_out_tongue:
