The BattleTanks Standalone Project - JFT - 2016-04-30

Hey!
We (6 people) are currently developing a open-source version of Batteltanks in our free time.
As basis we are using:
- irrlicht engine for 3D rendering + event handling
- irrklang for sound
- CEGUI for our graphical user interface
- raknet for networking
- pybind11 for binding python into c++ so we can use python as a scripting language
  
The whole code is cross-compilable - so we can compile and run the game on Linux as well as on Windows (probably OS X shouldn't be a problem either).
We have been coding for about six month now and have a basic working game engine (rendering, sound,networking, pathfinding etc.) until now.
For a lot more information go to

If you would like to join the project -> contact me

What are we supposed to see? ^^


RE: The BattleTanks Standalone Project - JFT - 2016-09-21

It is just some viszualization of the work done on the source files. We are keeping at it. No real eyecandy to show yet, since we decided to optimize the rendering backend.
We are adding a bgfx (https://github.com/bkaradzic/bgfx) wrapper to Irrlicht (http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/). This will give us higher rendering performance and support for OpenGL 4.5, Directx 11,12 and Vulkan.
