A .3ds Reader Appears!

So the next thing that I've been working on for the QGE is a .3ds reader. This would allow me to load 3D files directly into my engine and make my job a lot easier. I've also been working on making .3dses in a handy little program called Blender. So far I haven't been able to create anything useful, because the interface is a bit confusing, but I'm reading a tutorial on it that claims it'll make me a pro, so hopefully I can make some pretty cool stuff with it. Anyways, I'd better work more on that right now and less on this!

The Camera is Frustrating...

So recently I've been working on the camera on the QGE, and I can only either get the mouse to work or the keyboard. For some reason, the computer has trouble using the keyboard with the mouse code in place, and the same code works fine without the mouse code. I'll be working on this fiercely through the next few days, and hopefully I can get this settled and move on to bigger things shortly.

Slow and Unsteady Progress...

So I have been working on the QGE, but not very much due to an extremely busy schedule. Currently I'm fixing the camera system, which should be up and running in a couple of days, if I happen to get a light load of homework. I'm figuring about 4 to 5 hours of work, which with my luck means about 6 to 7 hours. I'm hoping for less. Until then...
