For years and years, I would walk sadly around the house and my wife would ask what was wrong / what I needed, and I'd say "Time! I need more time!!"
Now, unbelievably, it happened.
For the first time in years, my capability to build Rodina is in line with my ambitions for it. Systems and designs I've had in my head for a decade are going to come online for real. I don't remember when I last felt so confident and excited.
After I'm done with this Havok-Jolt transition, the magic for Rodina is just beginning. I'm already working through multiple high-level systems that are going to blow your dicks off when you see them in action. Some soon, some later, all moving at light speed.
Almost done with the Havok -> Jolt conversion for Rodina.
Finally, Rodina will be buildable on modern machines. Resurrection!
Still a little while before release as I need to finish the rocks. But soon our long national nightmare of no Rodina updates will be over.
@gassy_hips@DudespostingWs Nah, Todd was in lots of meetings. He was a bit part of development. I think nowadays Bethesda is just a lot bigger and more corporate. Order(s) of magnitude less collaborative dev now.
I know this is a charged issue (maybe even particularly so for an indie project like this!) so I'm sorry if this upsets anybody! I wanted to be open about it -hope you can see my reasoningπ
Thanks very much! I'm still working on an actual update for you as well, I do promise!
Rodina has been held back by being tethered to an old free Havok *2010* Physics binary. I've been building on Windows *7* and Visual Studio *2013* until this yearπHuge software compatibility issues - HUGE
And of course - Havok is a deeply integrated part of Rodina's codebade.
But frankly, for Rodina this is academic. This situation is practically a crisis and could kill the game. This little experiment could save Rodina in a very meaningful way.
