Intended Community Contribution

Herein we maintain a list of what individual community members will be contributing toward the Torque 3D MIT codebase.

Item	Description	Community Member(s)
Cppcheck static code analysis	Use Cppcheck to perform a static analysis of Torque 3D's code base. This could be broken up into smaller items.
Compile warnings clean-up	Turn on compiler warnings and resolve them. This could be broken up into smaller items.
Update to the latest Bullet library version	Update the included Bullet library to the latest version. v2.81 would likely be the best one to start with. Could look into 3.x integration.
Update PhysX support to the latest 3.x version	Update Torque 3D's PhysX support for the latest PhysX 3.x version.
Master server updated to T3D	The Master Server code was written for TGE and should be updated for T3D and included in the repository. This also requires the proper build files for at least Linux.	smally
OSX platform support	’Codecandy’ OS X work ported to T3D MIT with complete basic lighting support. Also talked about in this feature request.
Linux platform support	Linux client basic lighting support. Also talked about in this feature request.
OBJ mesh file import support	Expand T3D's graphics pipeline to include loading in .obj files and converting them to DTS.
FBX file import support	Expand T3D's graphics pipeline to include loading in FBX files and converting them to DTS.
Image file support	Expand T3D's graphics pipeline by including support for new image file formats (such as Photoshop). This could be broken up into one task per image format.
Multiple CPU Core Usage (for skinned meshes especially)	T3D still utilizes only a single CPU core, and skinned meshes have to be written/animated/rendered/exist/whatever on it. Who doesn't have at least a dual core machine these days? From this feature request.
A new scripting language	This would be in addition to TorqueScript, but for a more mainstream language like Lua or Javascript. Bonus points if it's written in such a way that additional languages could be added later. From this feature request.
Shader Composer / Material Editor	Some kind of Node-based Material Editor, would be nice. From this feature request.
Open GL 4.x support for Torque3D	This would enable to port Torque 3D to other operating systems that are not dependent on direct3d. Operating systems such as Linux and Mac OSX. From this feature request.
A system like kismet from unreal engine 3	For a quick way to test new ideas very easy. http://www.unrealengine.com/en/features/kismet/ From this feature request.
AI System - Navgraph, planner, fuzzy state machine	Create a framework for a comprehensive AI system, provide Navgraph for terrain and interiors spaces. Design a component system where a planner, state machine or flocking system could be used to control the AI. From this feature request.
Update the Terrain System	Change the terrain system so that there are better and more modern tools like those in UDK. This included better blending between textures, and the ability to use diffuse, normal, spec, and other textures together. Also, add some tools to the terrain editor, like the ability to make ramps. From this feature request.
