[Haskell-cafe] Summer Of Code 2009 project idea

[Peter Verswyvelen]

Well if you can do all that in a summer then you have been *very* productive
:-)
Haskell is indeed lacking a good functional 3D render engine (besides
Fieldtrip which is more academic), but I'm not sure the community is waiting
for this.

But personally I am all for it :-)

> Current features:
>  + easy (from user view) model loading and rendering
>  + definig materials (texture layers, blending setup, shaders, etc) via
> readable material scripts
>  + fast rendering via vertex buffers
>
> Some planned features:
>  + skeletal animation (in progress)
>  + physics (hpysics) integration
>  + efficient terrain rendering
>  + some mesh modifier combinators
>  etc..

> Do you think is this useful? Or should i think out a more relevant idea?
