| 00:03.55 | Aribeth | haha. yup |
| 00:04.22 | Aribeth | i tend to do that on my server |
| 00:05.11 | freakazoid | Patlabor221: So any chance bzflag will be ported to ogre? |
| 00:08.14 | Patlabor221 | it was looked at |
| 00:08.20 | Patlabor221 | was a lot of work |
| 00:08.40 | Patlabor221 | bzflag has nothing unique, so it was found to be easyer to just reimplement a new game in ogre |
| 00:08.52 | freakazoid | kind of like porting an assembler program to C |
| 00:08.56 | freakazoid | I would imagine |
| 00:09.02 | Patlabor221 | no not really |
| 00:09.07 | Patlabor221 | just difrent paradigms |
| 00:09.09 | freakazoid | aah |
| 00:09.31 | Patlabor221 | like porting from mac OS6 o MFC |
| 00:09.40 | freakazoid | ok |
| 00:10.17 | Patlabor221 | parts of the code could be used, but why, when there are better ways to do everything |
| 00:10.33 | freakazoid | nod |
| 00:10.50 | Patlabor221 | it's not like bz is a complex game |
| 00:11.01 | freakazoid | Interesting how Ogre came up behind and pretty much overtook CrystalSpace |
| 00:12.00 | Patlabor221 | I wouldn't say that |
| 00:12.02 | Patlabor221 | CS does a LOT |
| 00:12.18 | Patlabor221 | CS does a lot more the ogre, but ogre has a slicker API |
| 00:12.22 | freakazoid | It just seemed incredibly complex to me |
| 00:12.24 | Patlabor221 | for the stuff it does do |
| 00:12.29 | Patlabor221 | that's CSs problem |
| 00:12.40 | Patlabor221 | it does so much, it becomes complex |

| 00:17.56 | freakazoid | Patlabor221: Yes, I absolutely do not want network support from my 3d engine |
| 00:18.22 | Patlabor221 | CS isn't a 3d engine |
| 00:18.26 | Patlabor221 | it's a game framework |
| 00:18.30 | Patlabor221 | with an engine compoenent |
| 00:18.38 | Patlabor221 | you don't have to use the networking section |
| 00:18.46 | freakazoid | yeah, I guess that's true |
