Hi guys! I just saw the highlight regarding the Blender 3D support on the N900. I am very interested regarding Blender 3D because I'm using it and it can be used TO MAKE GAMES. That's right, Games!(At least on the PC). I'd like to kindly ask you guys(and I hope you'll be able to reply ) , 'does/will the N900 version of Blender have the Game Engine implemented, and will it be compatible with the PC version?'. Blender uses OpenGl for rendering, and I know that Nokia's 3D hardware accelerated phones have OpenGl(ES) support. Thanks for replying,,, (if you have technical updates regarding the development of Blender 3d on Nokia, I gladly welcome your reply )

I'm not sure what you mean. Link?

Not sure, but I do know Ton Rossendaal of Blender Foundation held a talk at the Maemo Summit

From what I see, U need to know if *.blend files can be read by maemo.
Does anybody know of a emulator or direct interpretor in maemo for blender projects? I'd be very interested too
Regards

last time I saw a blender game under my linux, it was way too slow - the n900 is even a few times slower than my (outdated) notebook, i wouldn't count on it - to be able to use it for real gaming.. however, it could be quite easy to recompile blender for maemo, so...

blender 3d is for modeling and rendering 3d graphics..

Well guys, here's a description of Blender.
*Blender is a 3D (3 dimensional) editor which can be used to create 3D objects(from cars to humans, plants to clouds etc...). A particular advantage of Blender is that it has A Game Engine. With it, you can make your Own games, without any need of knowing programming(although it's very useful), just 3d modeling and you "program" the game by using logic bricks(it's a very simple way to program, with pre-defined conditions and actions which can be adjusted).
*Blender has already been ported to Pocket Pcs. The Pocket Pc version looks, behaves and is compatible with the Pc version of blender(in other words, lets say you have a car and want to further work on it on your PPC-so, you just save your car as a file(in Blender's proprietary format), and then you just copy it on the PPC and you can now edit it! for example - tune it, color it, and so on...). But, because of some limits the Pocket Pcs have, the PPC version does Not Have a Game Engine-which means that you cannot play Blender-made games on it. And This Is what I'm looking for- If the N900 ported version of blender can play PC blender-made games. I hope you can understand me .

@claesbas- buddy, please note that blender can Also be used for making games(besides modeling, animating, texturing and rendering 3d scenes/objects) and to play them(the blender-made ones). I'm working with it, so I'm certain of that

oh, thats news for me.. remember i tried blender some years ago.. thank you for clearing that for me..

This is the kind of game that can be created with the blender game engine:

Pretty neat.

I do remember a blender mobile version for pocket pc a long time ago, in the age of MS pocket pc 2003. But I don't know if the blender foundation has any plan to port blender on Maemo....

Still doe not explain the point of this topic. As in, Blender 3D is ported to Maemo, or what? Wat is the relation between Blender 3D and N900/Maemo 5?
