"It's not the ideas; it's design, implementation and hard work that make the difference." - Michael Abrash

The Difference Engine

Difference Engine is the label I use with my past and future works on

real-time
first person perspective
client-server based
interactive
multi participant
virtual environments

which schould about include any buzzword available nowadays. There are some copyright and legal issues related (see the DE license). Difference Engine covers several areas, among them

tools and utilities related to Quake, a game package by id Software.
our outdated work on a DOOM-style renderer
the Dreadnought game project

This is a spare time and non-profit project, and things will move slow for the time being.

I finally started reworking the library originally used by the r95 renderer. There is an attempt at sorting out some coding guidelines that might come handy is anybody is trying to work his way through the code.
