Found something interessing on

devmaster.net

They write about the Acknex Engine featurese:
Code:

---

• Six degrees of freedom, multiple cameras and render views 
• Material properties for static and dynamic objects

• 2D renderer for still images, 2D sprites, panels, buttons, sliders, overlays, Truetype and bitmap fonts, screenshots and movies 
• Mouse picking and manipulating of 3D objects

This sounds interessting:
3D views and movies can be rendered to curved surfaces

really possible?
how?

thx in advance

you can render a movie to the skin of a model. For example:

media_play(my_movie, bmap_for_entity(my_model,0), 100);

well, thats all?

Feel a bit sad
I thought its possible to "tesselate" a curve in more detailed parts XD

thx for your fast reply :9

hey Bird... is that just with the Pro version... the render to texture code you just put up...

... or can it be done with any version?

thx
