A downloadable demo for Windows

(Currently in development.)

A 3D engine mostly designed for games like Battlefield 1942 / Battlefield 2 (other types of games will be supported via editing the game DLL (C++ code)).

Note: both "Tank Roller" and "Terrain Engine" are just sketchy development names. I haven't yet come out with a good name for it.. These both names refer to the same thing..

I started it for my own game some time ago. The game isn't there (yet), but here's a demo of the engine itself..

Media:


Known issues:
- Player may pass through objects (vehicles) sometimes.
- Vehicle may 'stumble' at the map tile edges.
- After leaving the vehicle the player motion is sometimes broken.
- This version may fall silently on error (the previous behaviour was to bring up a message).
- On Windows 7 (and probably 8) you must check the Null Sound check in the launcher menu (no sound yet, sorry)

Minimum system req (demo only):
- Windows 7 (no sound), 2 core CPU, 1 GB RAM, SM 4.0 graphics card (the demo can run in software mode though: set DriverType to WARP in DirectX11.ini -- this way you can also test it on a virtual machine that doesn't have a graphics driver)
