* Replaced existing instancing test with TestInstanceNode, which demostrates how to use the new InstancedNode by changing the transform, mesh, and material of every instance periodically. * The lower-level InstancedGeometry API rewritten: Users don't need to manage the number of instances they have and their indices. Instead, they can use addInstance() and removeInstance() to add and remove instances as desired. Unlike InstancedNode, InstancedGeometry requires all Geometries to have the same mesh and material, but they can have different transforms. * Instancing.glsllib now requires the InstanceData to have world transforms instead of world view transforms. As a consequence, users of instancing must specify in the material the world parameters ViewProjectionMatrix and ViewMatrix instead of ProjectionMatrix.
jMonkeyEngine
jMonkeyEngine is a 3D game engine for adventurous Java developers. It’s open source, cross platform and cutting edge. And it is all beautifully documented. The 3.0 branch is the latest stable version of the jMonkeyEngine 3 SDK, a complete game development suite. We'll be frequently submitting stable 3.0.x updates until the major 3.1 version arrives in Q4 2014.
The engine is used by several commercial game studios and computer-science courses. Here's a taste:
- jME powered games on IndieDB
- Maker's Tale
- Boardtastic 2
- Copod
- Attack of the Gelatinous Blob
- Chaos
- Mythruna
- PirateHell
- 3089 (on steam)
- 3079 (on steam)
Getting started
Go to http://hub.jmonkeyengine.org/downloads/ to download the jMonkeyEngine SDK. Read the wiki for a complete install guide. Power up with some SDK Plugins and AssetPacks and you are off to the races. At this point you're gonna want to join the forum so our tribe can grow stronger.
Technology Stack
