EVE is more a click and point game. I want have primarily combat simulations where the player is flying a ship by his own. Not really, because Simerge is going to be a single player game.

This has to be done because I will require other information for some stored objects. For example the model files should contain material data to be used with shaders v3 (later for v4). Another example are the celestial bodies. I want them to move around their parent, but EOC isn't storing required information about orbit trajectories like eccentricity or ecliptic angle. The scripting is a special problem. I want to use an existing interpreter instead of writing a new one. Because the script compiler of EOC is closed source, I'll have to take free available interpreters like LUA, Phyton etc. Not at all, but I want to create conversion/edition tools, to convert much of the files into the native format for my engine.

For example, a lot of the EOC features are pushed out into .ini files that can be easily edited. Are you planning to have the engine be able to read any of those? Or all?

I have to agree with using the I-war Hud. Looks great and feels so nice and familiar. I am really intrigued to imagine the I-war/Torn Stars re imagined in your engine. I have pretty much pushed the old flux as far as she will go. Keep up the great work! Wow, that looks really good. I have to agree with using the I-war Hud.

I have been looking for someone to follow up to those games. EOC is by far one of the most amazing space games ever. I am so very much looking forward to seeing this work. Do you need help like programmers, designers and the such. I would love lend what ever support I can to this cause. Pingjockey This sounds great.

Currently I don't plan to release a demo before converting my old planetary engine for it. Thanks.
