(10.02.2007) Kmatrix V2 development is freezed.
I'm sorry about this but I have to freeze development for some times beacuse of my old CRT 17'' monitor
is almost dead - the text is so blurred so my eyes are going to cry after an hour of coding.
So until I'll make some moneys to buy a new one it's impossible to continue.
There is so much to do - for about two two and half months of full time work.
The KMatrix V2 NEED YOU - If You can please support this project.

This is an early screenshoot of current development stage. The matrix corridor.
Screenshoot-2

Notes.


KMatrix 0.1 is based on the code by Thomas John.

Currently I'm working on the V2 version of KMatrix3D which will contain
following effects:
1) endless corridor section
2) matrix world transitions
