Kaldar’s Odyssey

As reported recently, we have been toying with the idea of abandoning jme as an engine and using a C++ engine. We have done that and have adopted a new open source engine we can use. The decsion behind this was driven by the fact that the only real reason we were using Java over C++ is so we could make applet version to run in a browser window. After some careful consideration and research we’ve determined that the benefits of having an applet version are too small compared to the benefits of using a C++ engine. As such we have switched to the far more versatile and easily modified C++ engine. This really should affect anything for the rest of the dev team or for the end user.

We’d like to extend a warm welcome to draconlord, the final member of our writing team. I h ave little doubt that the work provided by draconlord will be of the high standard required of those contributing to the project.
