Awesome 3D / 2D development news

I am planning to start a blog or more like somekind of Rægæ System storymode. And I was wondering how to proceed with all the 2D and 3D art and all of a sudden there is so much good news…

3D news
Blender foundation is developing Blender 2.8 with great speed, and greatest news for me is the project called Armory game engine that reached its Patreon campaign goal, and is now working to release it free and open source. Why this is so good news is that Armory is integrated inside Blender, and even better, Blender foundation have granted funding to develop new kind of game engine called real-time interactive mode. I think that this is brilliant because then you kinda model and work already inside the setup that can be the outcome, I mean there is no need to switch so distinctly between game engine and editor/viewport. And you can export games to mobile and html (and consoles even), that is good news for my slowly progressing web page attempt, that used to have über 3D graphics. And even more super news, Blender foundation is planning to officially support external game engine integration (Godot, Armory, Blend4Web, Unreal, Unity, etc). Now I also got motivation to continue my study on howto control Blender visuals with Renoise.

2D news
Recently I have been scanning images and doin image manipulation. To help came the new version of Gimp. Havent tested it really yet but it looks promising. It represents six years of work.

Gimp symmetry painting looks both fun and useful

just wondering why there is three dots appearing after my posts, as many rows as many times I preview my post ? : /

I cant erase them, them dont appear in text editor, do i have some weird setting on or is it bug ?

just wondering ???

I dunno, as a moderator I can edit your post and then they appear just fine.

Maybe you have a pixel-bug infestation in your signature? Watch out, too many pixels and they start posting things on their own!

i tthink one of the most promisong features its the new live render engine EEVEE

the demo videos are killing it also more support for 2d animation with the grease pencil … this release its going to bring more Blender in to the mainstream !

Looks like you have understanding of 3D graphics, just keep practicing :wink:
