if you understand unix its simpler. basically you take complex actions and break them down to their simplest form. imagine a lego castle. does it come out of the box as one big ass castle or 5 thousand little peices you assemble?
procedural code in this sense is the legos. the animation is each procedure stacked together to form some sort of final "lego". the problem is in all other games animations are done seperately and as a whole. if someone is running there is 1 single run animation usually, and each seperate object in the game has its own unique animation. this game actually links the mechanics of running(lift leg, move leg forward, put leg down) and their animations for it together to make seperate run animations. its essentially predicting how creations *should* work. my only concern in this is that the game will probly be bloated as hell. its giving you a LOT of tools but im not sure how well they will be implemented. |

ahh cool, i see what you're saying. thanks.
seems like one hell of a diverse game, i'm sure there will be uses for all of those tools. it seems pretty well thought-out imo. i'm gonna check it out for sure. the video in that preview is kinda crappy and i can't see the game all that well, but the lighting looks phenomenal in some scenes. |

I can see some diketana (sp) in there. I'm a bit skeptical of it once it turns into the "world and space simulator" But the whole "Disigning your own superbeings" sounds pretty cool.
