Finally we wrote two tutorials for Kochol Game Engine.
I hope we can write 5 tutorials at least before releasing the new version of the engine.
The new version will release about 2 or 3 month later when I complete the new material system for the engine.
The tutorials links
The terrain now accepts normal maps and also you can mix the texture color with a color for every vertex.
For example you can make grasses yellow in an area.

Welcome to official website of Kochol Game Engine(KGE).
I hope to make a good community here for KGE users and also write some document for engine.
If you are interested in joining KGE and help us to improve it or you want write some documentation for engine leave a comment here
The alpha test implemented in engine and shadow map renders meshes with alpha test.

I implemented Refraction effect in KGE and now effect manager can manages post process effects too.
Effect manager can prepare rendered images upon the post process effects needs. For now effect manager prepare the color map.
I add a screen shot from Simorgh editor here.
Simorgh editor is a 3D world editor build with KGE

The shadow map implemented in KGE and there is an effect manager now that works with scene manager together.
The effect manager controls shadows, post process effects and some built in materials.
The KGE physX port is updated and now it has Ray casting, dynamics, triggers, collision detection and some new shapes.

Hi all
Currently I am creating a new scripting language called Cyrus Script.
Cyrus Script(CS) syntax is similar to C language and it’s in early production.
CS has a different design from other scripts. It dose not use virtual machine to run the script programs.
I test CS speed against C++ and the results was amazing when you don’t use default C++ types like int for all commands. CS is 5%-15% slower than C++which is very good performance result. I heard the fastest scripts are 15 times slower than C++.
I also test CS speed against Angle Script and CS was 6 times faster than AS.
I want to write a technical article about the design of this script. Please if you have any information on this please advise me how can I do this.

I added multistream to the engine which was introduced in GPU gems 2 book. When I test shadow mapping with multistreaming I gain 7% speedup.
I also work on a new shader design that is XML based and add flexibility to the engine for shaders.
This design is not artist friendly but it is programmer friendly instead.
Today I added decals on terrain.
They are nice and you can rotate decals on terrain and use them for selecting effects also I have an idea to use decals for add dynamic lights on terrain.
