Hi,

I successfully managed to port the engine to Android and Windows 10 using OpenGL ES.

If this sounds interesting, I will publish the source modifications (quite ugly using a few macros).

What engine ? The Cube Engine, the Cube 2 Engine or Tesseract ?

And with what game(s) did you try it ?

The Cube 2 Sauerbraten engine (the code in src/)

First I tried Tesseract, but shader restange support is not available on ES

I did not have a better idea. I just wanted to make it public. Do you have a better idea?

To store source code, use Github is less and less seen as a good idea

According to what I understood, you have your own website.

Why not put your code on this site ?

Hi there.

From 4.2 to the latest. More work will need to be made on UI controls and movement.

For this reason I added:
VARP(freecursor, 0, 1, 1); VARP(freeeditcursor, 0, 1, 1);

This means that the camera rotates only when you drag the finger on the screen.

I would say it is not yet usable, but it just renders the map.

Robert Pointon "baby-rabbit" One of the Cube 2 Programmers made this Cube one port for ipod

Don't know if it be any help for the UI controls! I only played it once and liked how the controls worked!

Don't worry if there are just a few of us speaking about this project! There's been little activity to keep this communities blood flowing! Thanks for keeping the project alive and giving back to the developers! :")

Any chance of a Google Cardboard VR version? A fast & lightweight engine like Cube2 could work really well for Android VR projects :)

Since am I am no 3D modeler and I am not allowed to publish sauerbraten to play store / app store / windows store, I will focus more on other projects, but I am glad to answer to questions.

I just think this is pretty cool saying that cube is hardly multiplatorm (well at least mobile platforms).
