Vega Strike World Report (July 4, 2001)

Long Live the Confederation!
Here's the latest from Vega Strike -- which has really done an impressive job of becoming a serious game engine over the past several months...
  • Somehow last time the README didn't get included. You can grab it here: README.
  • If you would like to get up-to-the-minute information about vegastrike progress, you can look at the comments I put to the right of the source code. If you click the link you'll see the most recent news about fixes I put on every file. And you can click on the file itself to see a history of all changes I or any developers have made!
  • Feel free to comment on the source code or enjoy reading the comments that are there.
  • Currently I'm working on a lighting/halo system so the sun will emit light and have a magnificent glow around it, as will your engines, and any other parts on a starship that a designer wishes to place halos on.
  • I also implemented a fast drawing system to draw many lights quickly!
  • I've begun work testing weapon fire and the like! Soon you will be able to fire at targets with the spacebar! :-)
