This is Evo, 5.5 years ago. I actually have the sd7 if anyone wants it for the sake of nostalgia.



And this is evo a couple of months ago...



If a no-talent ass-clown like me can make that transformation happen (with a metric boatload of help from 99% of the people in this community and with kaiserj's awesome skillset), imagine what you can do!

5.5 years to add textures?
meh!

Joking aside, I think development probably goes faster once you get things going. The beginning is the hard part, and perhaps a bit too hard.

I just managed to import a boar from 0ad into Spring (using Flozi's C module) and have it render and scale properly (with textures). It took me 4~ hours to do this (most of it spent in figuring out basic things). For the next unit it would probably take me less than 5mins.

I want an SDK that can import assets with a drag-and-drop level of difficulty.

Gajop, did you get it animated too?

Implementing skeletal animations in 4h would've felt like an achievement.

Well from the way you said it, it could be taken to have been carrepaired limb by limb rather than that.

I should mention that the first picture is from Evo chapter 1, released on april 25th, 2008 (one day after my birthday, for whatever that's worth).

To be fair Small Divide makes anything look like ass.

This looks just like the difference in anime between now and then :)

I would not say that. Comparing age to 0083.. 0083 wins.
