Latest blog updates: Splintered Core Lore - the Deadlanders Handling the passage of time

Don't worry it's just a long and inane monologue to blame the lack of progress not on my own lack of technical excellence but on somebody else's engine. :lol:

Thanks Morgan. Newest update: Irrlicht Disaster! Wasted a whole day trying to shoehorn Irrlicht into drawing something that I want, and ended up with this: Using this scene construction method: Compared to my photoshop mockup: I can safely say it's a long way off. It's...
