Not my intention, to sound harsh, but sometimes I think it's better to say what you think it's best, even if it hurts a bit. Resources are very limited. Libreoffice is wonderful and needs to be used as much as possible to become a worldwide alternative ot M$ office (now with that obscene "yearly license") so, why trying to reinvent the wheel? Can you imagine how many people will be attracted and start using Aros on a daily basis if we have Libre Office? I bet thousands Quote:
I know, and I have a slight idea about how hard it is to port, but it puts more on my side: every developer interested in a word/calc/presentation editor should row in the same direction, no one will get a viable product to fulfill today needs. And if I was a developer, I would ask myself: what do I want, to be the only dev of a program which almost no one will use, or contribute to something essential and a landmark for the platform which will be remenbered and used forever? ;)

Waiting for Libre office, any other option is a waste of time and resources.

Welcome and nice to meet you! developers is just what AROS needs the most, so you are more than welcome and probably you already know you will find good support here for all your doubts & questions.

hi Sabbate,
Sometimes it's difficult to understand what you really mean. Who is porting Real3D to Aros? are they? will they finish porting Real 3D to Aros before a new version? In that case, which version will they port? or do you mean that they will finish a new version of the program, and then port it to aros? I am really interested in this subject because, now that aros can use whatever processor and memory is available, I hope it starts to have some 3D packages options. It is perfectly possible to have Real 3D and Blender someday. Many thanks in advance for managing this.

LOL, hope it can be done at some point Quote:
Sadly I am not programmer. I am videogames developer , but just designer and producer (here our latest project - no spam, we are not selling it yet - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWhpDNkyqdc ) and I dream of the day when I can port our developments to AROS. I would regardless of the profitability, just to support the platform, but for that I would need Unity 5. I know that's an objective out of the scope for the moment, so I would be happy if at some point we could just have vulkan and Blender. That would be enough to produce some appealing games.

Thanks for the info kalamatee. This one I presume: https://dri.freedesktop.org/libdrm/ Is it difficult to recompile? But most important: Is an update of the graphic drivers and/or libraries on your near future agenda?

https://www.khronos.org/vulkan/adopters/ Vulkan is a very important step in the graphics development of AROS Are there any requirements that can make it very dificult to port at this point? Having our own implementation would cetainly improve performance, graphic development, and porting of apps & games

Thank you very much for the progress report. I always loved Real 3D, so I am very excited that you could bring it to aros with up to date features
