I currently use another sdk (2D) for iOS development, but your 3D capabilities look interesting. I've also looked into Unity 3D. I was just wondering if you have a rough time table of when the fully-functional (non-beta) 3D command set might be ready. Obviously, dev schedules never are dead on. Just wondered if you had a rough estimate, so I can work on some tentative plans for the future.

Thank you,
Jared

Life would be easier if I had the source code.

The basic 3D commands will be available within a month. More advanced commands like 3D animation are planned but we want to focus on the IDE and Compiler first.

Within a month... Sounds like mid January... A great time for me to port my current project to AGK3D...

Paul... How about Physics? (I ask as I have not been able to keep track of the beta...)

No physics for this version, just collision detection and ray casting.

Thank you Paul

Is there a road map for the Physics?

Only that it will be after the IDE/Compiler work, and I can't predict if our priorities will shift away from 3D or towards it.

Do you can tell me a bit more about animations ? we have some games that could be changed to use 3d objects instead the actual sprites to save a lot of memory due to the huge amount of animations. Also we have a lot of limits with AppGameKit and devices for texture and frames for sprites and use a 3d animated object is much better.

Thanks.
