Image Description, by
Here are a couple of screenshots from Crazy Pool, a 3D
Physics training exercise that I have been working on
for a few weeks. Whats Crazy about the game? It allows
the user to specify the number of sides of the table
and the number of pockets. This may result in you
playing on a near round table with 17 pockets or a
triangle table with 0 pockets! :S Who would win that
game??
Some features:
Graphics/Input use DirectX 8.1
Table Mesh Dynamically Built to allow custom tables
to be Created
Physics for interaction with Objects eg, Collision
Detection and Response, Friction, Conservation of
Momentum (angular physics still in development so no
spinning balls yet)
Intelligent Camera which watches the action
Shot Assistance. Similar to Ghost Cars in alot of
new Driving Game Time Trials, watch the shot unfold
without affecting the table
Pool Referee
This is a very early version of the game. Alot of work
still needs to be done. Table mesh/Physics needs to be
Optimised. Game AI/Online MultiPlayer to be added so
if someone at PC on their own they can still play
against a competitor.
