What is Lamiae
Lamiae is a fork of Platinum Arts Sandbox meant to showcase my work on the RPG module since 2009. Sandbox is in turn a fork of cube 2, which is a fantastic octree-based first person engine, naturally this isn't ideal for RPG-style gameplay, so getting to where we are now has been a significant challenge. Cube 2 fork, Tesseract is also bundled, providing a state of the art lighting model and other advanced rendering features, including SSAO, HDR w/ tonemapping, Radiance Hints (Global Illumination) and more!
Lamiae builds upon cube 2 technologies, providing a highly flexible framework for RPGs more than capable of simulating many games from ages long past. Check the "Inspiration" and the "Features" sections for a general idea.
List of Features
If you want a list of Sauerbraten's or Tesseract's respective features, visit their webpages. Suffice to say cube 2 features a very easy to use WYSIWYG-style map-editor.
Dedicated PC interface.
Highly Performant - cube 2 and derived projects pride themselves on their fast and stable codebases.
Stable enough for hardcore-roguelikes.
Expansive RPG library built atop of cubescript with significant emphasis on flexibility, and getting all the bells and whistles down pat.
Signal based scripting system, allows both hard-coded and arbitrary named signals, very extensible.
A simple yet flexible AI system which can be directed via directives and by tagging world objects (in progress).
A wide variety of status effect primitives, including script types.
A highly flexible template system for items, critters, triggers, objects, containers and more.
Open Source and with Plain-Text, easy to modify formats - Makes modding a cinch.
