website = [http://www.revolution3d.net Official Webpage]Revolution3D is a 3D graphics engine developed by "VirtualART".
This engine is free for non-commercial and commercial use and provides an easy and fast accessible interface for 3D realtime applications, games etc using DirectX 9.0.
The project was started in
1998 by Simon Theophil and competed with the engine TrueVision3D.Revolution3D can be used with
C++ , C#,Visual Basic , Java and Python.There are already some finished freeware games like "Acamar Rising", "Kuhtrix", "History Of Conquest" and "R3DChess".
In
2001 Microsoft developed a game called "Donkey .NET" using Revolution3D. This game was a programming example for the new .NET platform andVisual Basic .NET programming language.The engine is fine and good but you will find that it lacks documentation in addition to it generates a file called r3d_logfile.log in the c: even for the commercial games and this comes from this dll file "R3D09?_D3DPort.dll"; the log file generation is hard coded.
