While BSP tree rendering system is great, I wonder if 3d Gamestudio's engine could harness the massive 3D graphics power of 3ds Max? With this amount of rendering power, 3dGamestudio could become a more versatile tool, allowing developers to utilize the ease of use in 3dgs while at the same time using the power of 3ds Max to render their projects. Possibly, 3dgs could be used in the next cg blockbuster hit! Has Conitec considered licensing the engine from Discreet? What would be the drawbacks of such technology?

-Just a thought. But that would be sweet.

LOL! never laughed so much 3dsm isnt a game engine. you could actually never use 3dsm as game engine. it isnt possible, too much to explain( iam to lazy to write it in english )

I don't think he was talking about using 3dMax as a game engine.

not? then its a misunderstanding sorry, my english isnt that good, i must have got something wrong

If you are talking about "real time rendering" then 3D Studio MAX cannot handle all the geometry AND the code for things like AI, panels, etc in real time. I have scenes that cause MAX to crawl on my PC that run at 70+ FPS in GameStudio because of BSP.

If you are talking about using MAX to render textures as apposed to use GameStudio to render Lightmaps, then you can do that already.

I guess I should clarify:

Could 3dgs use the same type of rendering technology as 3dsm, but optimize it for realtime gaming? Best of both worlds? An engine with extremely detailed graphics with high fps? Is it possible?

I think he's talking about the visual quality of A6 rendering. Some have complained that other, more high profile engines delivery higher quality output(color, light, shadow) than A6.

yes yes! that is exactly what I was trying to say! thanks for summing it up in a few words!
