This is going to save me "so much" work Without this tool I would not be able to do 3/4 of what I need to do to make my mod work the way I want them to Thank you again |

Looks like a great program. Thank you so much for all you do!!! I can imagine there will be a line waiting to download this. I am only a beginner and I can see the great help the viewer will be.

Applause. This looks incredible. I'm sure S3D will be part of the tools the devs will use to develope Sh5.

When I have time I will certainly look at that more closely. I did open the harbor_kit (both US/GER) and all the houses, structures etc, are neatly layed out in line. I'd have to use the cfg files/city dats, etc., to allow for proper city building but at least now there's a framework. Similar for a zones editor... Hell, maybe in time even a particle engine (lol, uhm, maybe not... difficult
 )

Oh Skawasjer,
I hope you don't spend too much time in thinking about further projects... WE WANT IT NOW!  Eh sorry... It is very hard to wait for it after watching the vid. Especially your 'don't watch it' made me watching it. I love your 'one moment, what's that thing here for' styl although your know everything! keep this up too

 I will try to release it in a few hours, but I got caught up tonight doing some other things. In any way, it will be this weekend for sure, because next week, I'm off with my girl, son and tent

But by judging the shear amounts of data the game can handle over thousands of files, I can tell you it's most likely just split up the way it is now for easier file management and patching, but it may have been a single 4GB dat as well for that matter. There are some limitations on some arrays due to use of 16-bit datatypes (regarding models, animations), but you can work around those limitations by simply splitting the meshes up. The devs did so too Other than that, I see no limit to a single dat-package... (edit: S3D certainly doesn't have a limit. It should handle files as large as you can imagine, just gets slower as it gets bigger).The limits I do see are more related to what our GFX cards can handle. For instance, a full modeled interior sounds great, but I worry the game will blow up on the huge number of poly's it has to render...  [edit] Just toggle on wireframe in an interior in S3D when you get the chance. I am by no means a skilled 3D programmer, but I got pretty good framerates, with textures and stuff. But wireframe mode means the zbuffer gets overloaded, and the GFX needs to check depth for each line over each line over each line (if any coder can tell me how to improve it, by all means!). FPS from 100+ in solid mode all the way down to 13... And this is just one room...
