Shake hands?

Hey vincent

I happened to get some good amount of spare time! Hear me out what I'd love to do with it:

I have that project http://lizkats.com going on and I would love to use recast/navigation with it. I'd use it on the server side though, yet together with three.js. Since you have that planned for the future it would be great if we could somewhat work together! How exactly? I want your library implemented, and you want the code I implement it with. If we sit together we can discuss and work on how that server side implementation should look and work like. I'll have it seperated from my code and then you can use that code to publish it with your library once it's up and running! So you get from this: a) (part) of the code for the server side and b) an example/reference of someone successfully using your server side port!

The downside: I'm the only coder on my side, and I probably won't be able to spend more than ~10h/week on it.

What do you think? Would you work together with me?

(Ofc it might be that after some research we figure webworker-threads to be the most optimal solution and just require all that toolchain-stuff from the users. Fine with me too, we'd see :) )

Hi Doidel, I've already lurked at http://lizkats.com and it seems a fun project :-)

I'd love to work with you. Just like you said: I'd like to see this project to move forward and having a decent server side support. Like you, I don't have so much time to work on it, though.

I must say I feel a bit under experienced to help you. I have a quite "real" professional experience on nodejs (only on simple web projects like apis etc..) but I feel a bit lost about 3D maths (that's why I choose the emscripten way to begin with :-) and network-synced game engine.

That being said, I'd love to share some ideas about the subject ! If we can agree on some very specific goals, we can hopefully make them work :-)

I'll definitely make the nodejs version to work in a separated process. I'm also a bit more confident about the performances of the js Recast part from my experiments on https://github.com/vincent/recast.js

btw you should contact me at [email protected]

cheers !
