Description

PVLE in a nutshell:

Description PVLE is a small game engine (real-time visualisation/simulation engine), cross-platform and written in C++.
Features 3D, physics, audio and networking.
It uses well known libraries to acheive this goal: OpenSceneGraph (OSG), Open Dynamics Engine (ODE), Boost librairies, and more.
Platforms Tested under Windows and Linux.
Should work for many other (including Mac OSX, Solaris...).
Specific aspects Doesn't hide its dependencies (especially OpenSceneGraph). Light and easy.
Generation Uses CMake to generate project files.
State Still alpha but useable for games, visualization applications and simple physics simulations.
License GPL/Proprietary, but plans are made to turn it LGPL during 2010.
That means PVLE is open source, and use for comercial purpose is possible (symply contact Sukender to ask).

What is the difference between project XYZ and PVLE?

The project is opened to any developper. Feel free to use the forums and trackers, or to contact Sukender.
