Hello, I am FIB. Just joined like…9 hours ago . A very great community I have to say and I am very glad to be a member.
So I was wondering whether there could be a basic scene bundled with every JmonkeyEngine release. I mean a basic environment with textures, models ( trees, houses, rivers etc), effects, to showcase JmonkeyEngine’s feature in one scene. Other game engines feature this and it enables newbies to love the engine even more.
We don’t have exactly that, but we do have an extensive suite of tests/demos available - you can build these with the engine or you can install and run them easily via the SDK.
The question is what a “basic scene” is. You mention “trees, houses, rivers”. But to someone else it might be an indoor, modern scene. To yet others a spaceship, or a dungeon. I think this is just right for the jmonkeystore, to avoid cluttering the project even more.
