DrYSG Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I have not built Multi-Player 3D games for over 10 years. But I now have a project and I want to choose a WebGL engine I looked at:Babylon.jsThree.jsPlayCanvasCesiumAnd I am am strongly leaning towards Babylon. Does anyone see any caveats, show-stoppers, or things I should be careful about. Does anyone have any pointers to work done using babylon.js as a way of veiwing real-world data? We have a variety of real sensors are sending motion, location, and visual clues via WebSockets. We need to handle a 25 FPS update rate, and have this animate, move, change meshes, change materials of Babylon.js objects.Some idea of the upper-bound that we can handle on a top-end workstation browser (GTX980 GPU) would be good input.Features that are important include:Easy import of 3D models (scene construction)buildings, roads, signs, bikes, cars, pedestriansLOD (Level of Detail)WebSocketThis is critical, since we will be getting live data streams to drive the objects location, orientation, and attributesThis also means that the objects need to be script-able (loc, orientation, attributes (size, and color and texture would be nice) based on websocket databuildings, roads, signs, bikes, cars, pedestriansphysicscollision detectmensuration from the model (engineers want to measure distance, light, speed, acceleration, etc.)Timeline control (forward, back, single-step)Camera control (first person, 3rd person, follow-me)Fog and atmospheric effects (outdoor lighting).Only Linux and Windows support needed for right nowCan use NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980Development time is at a premium. so the easier to get started, and testing the better.

GameMonetize Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Hello and welocme:) some live examples:http://live2.dotvision.com/live/virtualTour?guid=f0045a3c-6c11-4329-b881-8d8a170538fb〈=fr&intro=truehttp://babylonbing.azurewebsites.net/ from your list:Easy import of 3D models (scene construction): We support import from 3dsmax, blender, unity5, obj, stl, fbx, gltfLOD (Level of Detail): IntegratedWebSocket: This is not related to babylon.js but there is absolutely no problem to use websockets with babylon.jsphysics: provided by oimo, cannon or the one you want because it is based on a plugin modelcollision detect: integratedmensuration from the model (engineers want to measure distance, light, speed, acceleration, etc.): scene graph can provide these infoCamera control (first person, 3rd person, follow-me): and even more:)Fog and atmospheric effects (outdoor lighting): fog, volumetric lightscattering, post processesOnly Linux and Windows support needed for right now: this is browser based Can use NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980: for sure!

Dad72 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 there are also the editor castorengine.com (version Beta) that can help is is creating with babylon: http://www.html5gamedevs.com/topic/13331-castorengine-v4-editor-of-game/?p=76358 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahiru Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 some live examples:http://live2.dotvision.com/live/virtualTour?guid=f0045a3c-6c11-4329-b881-8d8a170538fb〈=fr&intro=truehttp://babylonbing.azurewebsites.net/ Do these example work with you?The virtual tour shows a surrealistic view with a VERY low PFS, the second one states: Access was denied.

Ahiru Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 You can go to different places? With me it only shows the Sky and a Sun in the center, but given the GUI-Element on the left I guess I am supposed to see some map-like thing, which I don't?
