GAME PROGRAMMING WITH THE GENESIS 3D API

WALKER 1.01 -  a simple G3D application.  It's called "Walker" because that is about all it allows the virtual player to do, i.e., walk around a genesis3d room.  Note that since entities have not yet been implemented, the player origin is not specified. This means that if other levels are used, there is no guarantee that the starting location will make sense. Door operations and jumping are also not handled in this simple application.

Walker is based on the "Special App: Creating our application tutorial" from Genesis3D Dojo (www.gameznet.com/genesis/).  This application is intended to be built with MS Visual C++ 6.0 and the Genesis 3D SDK 1.0 libraries from Eclipse Entertainment (www.genesis3d.com).

Changes made in the code from the Minimum Application Tutorial on Genesis3D Dojo:

• modified for use with G3D-SDK 1.0
• changed mouse / keyboard control
• added a crude configuration file parser
• added text.c for text display
• custom debugging info can be shown on screen
• recompiled with Genesis3D112 graphics libraries to support Voodoo 5.

Download a demo (walkdemo.zip, 1.5MB) which now contains the executable, source code and all other resources necessary to run.

(note:  I don't do much of this stuff anymore, but I will try to respond to any inquiries)
