Hi all !

  Im new to the forum too, butt i have had an eye on the Outerra project for some time already. As for last two threads, I from Orava region (Slovak Republic) too - Dolný Kubín exactly and if you ewer get to this place of world, take a week free and go to the Roháče (Horns) moutains and Orava castle, witch i had the great opportunity to know better as a guide (so if there will be a project of making castles in outerra, just let know and i got your data on this one : )).

  As for me, im an chemistry student of the STU FCHPT in Batislava, butt im interested in every peace of technology or novelty that can have some great potential .. as Outerra surely has. (One of my mind outcomes was an interface for the railroad-sector as i got to know about the glonas controll-system for the RF railroads and its capabilities. Just think abut it: you come to a station, get to a little panel and in real time and Outerra planet-imaging, take a look on the positions, time-lines, routes and statuses of trains ... the same for the traffic controllers of railroads from nation to world-wide scale allways in realtime thanks to GPS/GLONAS) Still im a little too much into the FLYYING and ARMY topics, so all-in simulators like DCS-KA50 in Outerra whyte all its full-click cockpit capabilities is my dream of life. So im definitely not going to leave you out off sight! Still my philosophy is helping in whatewer and howewer i can, whyle learning new stuff about whats on topic ... so im here.
   At the same time, im an GREAT fan of tourism and i like to see each hill and mountain in this project to its real-world one. As too my fascination about the deep-middleage of slavic world and its wide emptyness (as in terms of just small amount of people and settlements) that makes me fell somewhat excited. Would be nice to do an RPG of the "Elder scrolls" type about the slavic ages whyte all our ancestors gods and mythical creatures (like the winged guardian dog http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSzSJS1TYx0WAaBShHh3Ua6UQ4v_seZuxz3KV3d7z049TRElOiyo-eio7UDsg, or wood-guardians from witch the "domowoi" http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/84/Domovoi_Bilibin.jpg comes from - our history has all we need for a fantasy world to create), in Outerra.
   At the end, newer stop to support inaginable and persistent perspective projects - you newer know, how much it can change the world of tomorrow.

Hello :)
I've been watching this developement for awhile now. The amazing vids available realy got me interested in the potential of this.

I'm a 57 yr old disabled coalminer. I live in southern West Virginia.
I've played flight games/sims since the mid 90s and between the playing and computer tweeking to keep playing it's likely helped keep me reasonably sane ;)

No programming exp, have did a few MSCFS/FS betas along with another software house (still under NDA).
Figgured I'd come out of the shadows and reg here but will not be posting alot, more of a sit back and watch things develope.

Outerra was just featured on PC Gamer through Reddit and linked to through Kotaku as well.  Prepare for a huge wave of newcomers.  :P

Somebody embeded the Himalayas video in the Kotaku comments already, so that's good.  ;D

Hello Outerra forum community,

I am Andy and I have been watching the development of Outerra for a while now. I would like to offer my congratulations to the developers on a job well done; the technology looks great as can be seen through the various screenshots and videos released into the public domain.

I live and work in South Wales (UK) and spent over 10 years working in the computer games industry as a 3D graphics programmer. I am still very much an avid gamer as I am interested in 3D graphics technology that drives many of them. I have spent the last 4 years working in a R&D role where I continue to work on visualisations and 3D work.

I have been fortunate enough to code in many different languages (from BASIC to C to various Assembly languages) but nowadays my work is primarily C++ based. I have experience of various graphics API's, shader technologies and graphics hardware and these still hold as much of an interest for me now as when I left university all those years ago.

Good luck with the ongoing story that is Outerra... I'll be watching it with interest!

Regards,
Andy

Hi all, first post.

Great job on the engine. Apache video is impressive.

36 years old, from France. Job: webmaster (ecommerce only) and PHP/MySQL teacher. Mainly using Linux although I still have a win32 machine, just for games.
Been mapper since 98 for Half-Life, CS and DOD. Then created a HL mod with C++. I create models too, it was useful when HL2 came out. Been mapper for COD too (they lost me when they went down to modern stuff).
Been part of a development team with Aldo for a game called Panzer Elite by Teut.
Wrote professionnal applications for Flight Simulator X.
Wrote several 3D engines about helicopters, WWII tanks, and of course FPS, embedding interpreters for game logic and AI.

Now that you did put together the terrain, JSBSim and the AH-64, I just got to purchase it! More seriously I am interested in making a WWII tank sim.

Keep up the good work. I will wait.

Hello, It's my first port here.

I'm Philip, 19 years old from Sweden. Right now I'm studying IT towards Network Technician. Low programming skills, mostly the basics in many programming languages.
I play a lot of games, and lot of Simulators.

I am very curious about how much fun it would be to play with Outerra.
Looks like you have done a great job on Outerra.

Good Luck! And keep it up.

You should probably check out FUEL, Blank.   ;D  (Preferably on PS3, but it's on PC (and 360) as well.  I've got a group of friends that still play it on PS3.)

Long time I'm just reading this forum, but today I decided to register here.
I'm a fan of a flight simulators and seems to me - Outerra will be a new greatest engine for any kinds of simulators!
