Will James Paige ever upgrade to polygonal graphics for the OHRPGCE?
I think that would be cool, more detail, and yes I know I probably just stated the obvious... Cool Big grin

I sure that it will eventually be possible with some scripting.
But in reality, no-one will ever make an OHR game with real-time 3D graphics.

If it happens, I doubt it would be the same OHRRPGCE program. (Some of us like pixel art) Hamsterwheel :}

P.S: This is the wrong forum, just so you know. The OHR General Discussion is what we typically use for these kinds of conversations.

The only way I see this as even remotely likely would be if the entire screen was drawn on one big fullscreen polygon. Not really what you meant, but it would allow some hardware tricks on modern video cards (scaling to a higher screen resolution, for instance).

Nope. No point. Ten times easier to code a new engine from scratch.

One can already scale the screen in 2d graphics.

(Mods, move this to OHR GD!)

can't imagine the OHR with 3d graphics.... that would suck.
