Hi Bryan, Well, I really couldn't have done this any sooner as the engine itself had been going through various writes and rewrites so that anything i created would have constantly been in flux and needed to be updated. However, as it happens since I've made all the major choices for the 1.0 version of the Genesis Engine it is more or less stable enough to begin creating games with. If anything pops up such as one of the 3d functions don't work write I can go ahead and fix it, but the core of the engine is there and it is more or less ready to use now. I don't intend to rewrite the engine in some other language like Visual Basic, Java, whatever tomorrow so anything I create with it now will use the common core. Any changes to the engine should carry over to the game unless it happens to be a bug in the main source file which is where the game specific code goes. Which of course shouldn't be a problem since I have plenty of working code I can copy right over from the side-scroller version of the game and modify as needed. That's the other reason I couldn't do it before. I didn't have a tun of working, heavily tested code, I couldn't copy and paste directly into a new project and start using it such as the game menus or the NewLevel() function which sets all the object properties, etc. This way I can just copy it from one main source file directly into the next and modify accordingly.
