LOL. Yes, that seems to work. But I wasn't yelling - I was just doing a silly gag by using nothing but acronyms, which looked weird when converted to lowercase. Nothing to worry about - I was just…

Possibly. I'm pretty skeptical, though. They've just released Cryengine 5.6 with great fanfare, and no signs of this remarkable tech, which they say is coming next year. What the other engines often…

On the performance side, I've heard that there's a lot of gains to be had through software optimisation. I saw a talk by the Unreal team, and they said that between the current version of the engine…

Yep, that's just why I was asking - to see if they've thought about it. I did ask them before on here, but didn't get a reply, so I wondered if perhaps they just didn't know what I was talking about….

Yes, open-source isn't quite the right term - what I'm getting at is that it's a copyleft license - whatever you use from the OGL, someone else must be able to take and use from you. It's a long time…

I'd still like to know how they're going to get around the requirement to open source anything based on the SRD. Unless something has changed, I'd have thought this could be tricky. They don't want…

I didn't say it would be a requirement, though. I just think it could become quite standard within the 5 - 6 year timeframe mentioned by the OP, and one might be glad to have it. I suspect it will be…
