Posted up a minor update to the PC build of GameCore 2.5.4 to correct some strangeness that was happening with the editor camera.  Nothing else has changed, but if you are running into strange behavior with the camera in the editor with 2.5.4, please grab an updated installer from the downloads page.

Cheers,

Arteria 3d have announced a 50% discount for GameCore users for all of their 'game-ready' content!  Check it out today!

Here is the blurb that they posted on the forums:

Just wanted to post a quick note that GameCore 2.5.4 is now available on for download!  Both the PC & Mac version are now available for download.

For PC Users, this is a small maintenance release that (hopefully) corrects some issues that a few users were seeing with regards to 'BVO Cache' errors.

So for my first blog post I talked about a new tree method I was experimenting with. You can read it here for the backstory:

Finding all of the various resources sites that are useful for GameCore developers can be tricky - and remembering where they are can be even harder once you do find them.  

To help you with this, we have created a community over on the popular site Reddit.com.

Just posted up the GameCore 2.5 Windows installer.  The Mac installer is next!  Stay tuned for more updates about the cool features that are included with this major update to GameCore!

To download GameCore 2.5 for Windows, head over to the Download Page and grab a copy!

I'm in the process of uploading a bunch of new Tutorial videos to our YouTube Channel - will see how many I get uploaded, but we have a few dozen new videos covering a huge range of topics, from Terrain Spawners to Post-Processing filters to setting up doors, ladders & platforms.

You can check them out over on the GameCore YouTube Channel!

We did a bit of work over the weekend streamlining the download page & process for GameCore.  Going forward, all updates and new releases of GameCore will be available from the 'Free 30 Day Trial' page.

Thought this might be of interest, if you haven't seen it yet.  I was surfing the forum earlier today and came across a pretty cool thread by GameCore user @LutinMalefique - he has been doing some experimentation with the famous 'Sponza Atrium' 3d model that has been used by a number of companies to showcase rendering technology and lighting.

He has posted a number of very cool screenshots and a downloadable demo of the Sponza scene - both of which are very cool demonstrations of GameCore's rendering capabilities. 

Well its Friday again, time for blog number 2. I'm going to use this opportunity so reiterate something I've said in virtually every post I've made and take it a step further. If you read the forums, you know I'm talking about inventory worlds.
