Essentially aiming to make an open-source version of Source now?
Not quite sure what you mean by that.
Once conscript is released the mod SDK will go with it, so you can make other mods for the engine (Called Granite, btw.)
Then after about a few months of conscript being out I'l opensource the engine under GPL.
So yes, I AM going to be opensourcing the engine, but it isn't an attempt to copy or clone source, at the end of the day it's still the quake engine.
Had to delete that comment wall, nano meant to say weeks, we are a quite a ways from releasing conscript, maybe bundling the engine source would be a good thing on release, but i'm sure nano has a good reason for it, lets just have a good night shall we
I do have my reason, and its a good one.
I don't want to release the source code straight with the game, because chances are it won't be optimized and/or compatible with many Visual Studio versions, i want to delay the source code release a little longer to make it understandable for others to read.
You realise how long Crytek waited to release the Cryengine 3 SDK? They COULD of released it with Crysis 2, but they didn't for the simple reason that it WASN'T usable by people who would just start learning about the Cryengine, Crytek had to refine it for at least a year.
Crytek weren't under GPL restrictions, just saying.
Cleaning up the source is admirable tho.
I know, but they still waited before releasing the SDK, most probably to clean it up more and make it understandable for newcomers to read and understand.
Are any of my models being used anymore? Stinger/shotugn etc?
stinger is still on the psp version, shotgun isnt being used anymore atm, but I'll find a use for it no doubt :)
Need me to do anything else or are you all good?
I'm all gravy atm, I'll give you a hollar if anything turns up :P
My psp can't wait :D
