TWF Opinion Polls# There has only been only poll held this month which asked the question: "What is your favourite type of game ?". This was split into 10 different game types with the top 2 choices being RPGs and Space Sims with the votes of 37 and 33 respectively. Well no surprise you're all wanting a good space sim. :) A new poll will appear soon. #2. Explorer 2260 Update.# Here are a few of the things that have been done for Explorer 2260 in November: - RedHat 6 (LinuxPPC 3Q99) has been installed and, while lots of setup work still needs to be finished, work on the Linux server core routines is continuing. - More background documents for the CEG are being created. #3. Maim & Mangle Update.# Work is continuing on M&M and here is what has happened in November on development. - (temporary) removed the obj's shadow due a few bugs. - Optimized the 3D math routines. - The collision routine now working perfectly (in the sense that it recognize a collision situation.) - Removed a lot of bugs. - The loading routines are now a little bit faster. - New Warp3D supporting Object Editor for 68k (PPC version coming soon). - Further M&M game design thrashed out. #4. Next News Update# 31st December 1999 / 1st January 2000 (Wahey!!) Or maybe /slightly/ later in the new year. :) ~~~~~ All the best, Ed. -- ________ _________ \___ \ / \ / ___// ICQ: 34895924 | \ \\_/\_// __// TWF Home : http://www.worldfoundry.com/ |_ /__\____/_// CEG Home : http://www.worldfoundry.com/ceg/ ================================================================= The World Foundry LLC - Amiga PPC - Explorer 2260 - Maim & Mangle
