OKABU - PS3 (PSN) Downloadable title, using Ogre

Post by handcircus »

Hello!

We're getting really close to releasing our first console title, OKABU for PS3. On PS3 we're using an Ogre-PhyreEngine hybrid (including Sinbad's great terrain engine). We initially ported all of Ogre to PS3, but switched to using a PhyreEngine hybrid to take advantage of the SPUs and other PS3 optimisations that PhyreEngine brings

We ported a number of Ogre objects (such as BillboardChain, terrain) as native PhyreEngine objects, as well as building tools to load Ogre meshes/animations into PhyreEngine and convert to native PE assets.

Our editor is a Mac Cocoa app that wraps around the game (running pure Ogre, not PE), allowing you to toggle between editing and play, allows you to paint trees/foliage, edit entities and modify the terrain.

We're really grateful to the Ogre team and community for creating such a great library, its been invaluable for us on this project, and we look forward to using it on many more :)

Sweet! I love the japanese-like style :D

An SPU optimized version of Ogre would be really great :wink:

The mere concept of making Ogre run on PS3 makes my brain hurt. Excellent work!

Fantastic!
I heard some rumours about running Ogre games on X360 but PS3 support was lacking! [The Wii/Wii-U also!]
