LOOP 0.074 released
posted on 2006.01.13 by otaco; Words: news, programming, director, demo, lingo,

Loop or "Lingo layer for instant sprite creation" is a set of lingo scripts that make it easy to create and destroy sprite objects on the stage/score. Sprites with properties and script instances can easy be created with one single line:

LOOP_CREATE_SPRITE( (propertyList), (scriptList) )

All spritechannel management for finding a empty spritechannel is done by the LOOP system. For example: with a little repeat loop you can create as many sprites as you want as shown here: easySpriteCreation.txt

You can load the available empty LOOP *.dir file and start to write your own applications. LOOP is now official GPL software. Read the GPL for more informations. You can download the latest version of a clean loop director project here: Loop_0.074.rar

A function and variables reference of the older LOOP 0.07 you can get here: Loop_0.07_Reference.rar
Note that some functions and variables have new names.

Demo of massive sprite creation ( You will need the shockwave plugin):

Interference Pattern
posted on 2005.12.22 by otaco; Words: news, programming, director, demo, lingo,

This is a little demo I created out of my Interference c++ demo. You need a very fast cpu ( >1200 Mhz ) to run this smovely. The interesting part starts after apr. 500 frames... wait and watch.

Loop is a set of lingo scripts that make it easy to create and destroy sprite objects on the stage/score. Sprites with properties and script instances can easyly be created with one single line:

LOOP_CREATE_SPRITE( , )

All spritechannel management for find a empty spritechannel is done by the LOOP system. With a little for loop you can create many particles as shown here: easySpriteCreation.txt

You can download the latest version of a clean loop director project here: Loop_0.072.rar( LOOP 0.072 is outdated. Please download a advanced version available on this page.)

New scenegraph in development
posted on 2005.12.12 by otaco; Words: news, gfx, programming, c++, opengl, GG,

Today I want to present my new scenegraph (with the prefix GG). It's a nodes and cores approach, based on openSG. If you are student of the Bauhaus University Weimar you can download the latest snapshot right from the gforge cvs of the Multi Framerate Display Project.

You have to be member of the developer group to enter the project pages at this point. The goals for this scenegraph is to have a nice environment for demo programming with all you can feature with todays graphics hardware like FBO, shader, GPGPU, shadow, and muche more.

Here you can download a first release:
mfrd_GG_Demo.rar .
The file contains a DEVC++ Project and a linux makefile.

Also you can download a doxygen made documentary of the project: doxygen_docs.rar The included demo shows a so called "multi framerate display". These are render setups, that render parts of a scenegraph in different framerates to one single display to rendere mass of geometry in one hand and reach interactive framerates in the other. In the demo you see one pass render the graph (piecewise) to a frame buffer object, the other render the image of the last complete graph traversal in realtime framerates to the screen.
