The menu system shown in the video above is a WIP, originally all level objects were added at build-time. It's a big change in overall engine design to get these things working flawlessly with the new system. The core is aimed at rapid development and tweaking of the game/level while playing. It's been like that since day one and the new system should compliment that, increasing flexibility of the engine and speeding up the overall process of creating games.

That's pretty impressive stuff! Just got to ask, is the whole of your editor in Winforms, or just the various browsers?
ReplyDeleteIf the whole thing is in Winforms, then how did you integrate the Edit/ Play feature? Did you just hook a game loop into the Application.Idle event?
Hi,
ReplyDeleteOnly the browsers are Winforms, the game window is still the regular XNA game window.
Really neat! I've been working on my own scripting engine and XNA engine but haven't managed to get anything quiet as cool as this.
ReplyDeleteGood job!
Thanks mate.
