Moving to GitHub

The Render Engine, starting with v2.0, is moving to GitHub!  There have been enough people asking about this that I've finally decided to leave Google Code (our home for the last 3 years) and move to GitHub.  Hopefully this will mean that people will get involved and help to move the engine forward while I'm not available to work on it 100% of the time...  Expect the move to occur sometime in the next couple of days.

I tried to get it set up, but something on my work machine is blocking SSH.  Ignore the two failed attempts at creating the git repo, the official move will occur soon.

  1. It would be great to see you continue this great work! I only found your engine today and I'm really liking it so far. Having trouble deploying to a real website though. What's the recommended directory structure?

  2. Something like below to allow for multiple games with different versions of the engine:

    root
    +css - main website css
    +js - main website js
    +img - main website images
    +game1 - game directory
    ++resources
    ++renderengine
    +game2 - game directory
    ++resources
    ++renderengine

    If this is the wrong forum to ask questions, just let me know.

    TIA.

  3. I would recommend going to:
    http://groups.google.com/group/the-render-engine

    There are others there who would be able to assist you. However, the structure you have in the second comment should work. The demos all use the same engine location, which looks more like this:

    +renderengine
    +demos
    ++game1
    +++resources
    ++game2
    +++resources
    ++game3
    +++resources
