Hi, I was thinking for some time and name PB sounds very familiar to me, but
I just coudn't remember why. Did they make games for Amiga? That would explain everything (I miss those times!).
Also, maybe someone knows what engine runs Gothic/Gothic2?
Did they make their own engine or modified already existing engine?
Thanx in advance
p.s. sorry for my bad English, it is not my first language. |

No. Piranha Bytes created Gothic and Gothic 2, I believe.

They built the engine from scratch. In fact, a large part of the G3 engine will be their own work.

I am also curious about scripting system. This is probably the
best scripted game I have seen, and I would like to know how did they implement
their scripting system. Did they use some help tools, LEX/YACC, C++ preprocessor,
or maybe they write their own high level language from scratch?
I know that it is pretty difficult to develop high level language that produce
optimized byte-code, and for game like this one speed is very important, so I am really
curious how did they do that. Any info about this is more then welcome.
TIA |

Fans have started developing mods using tools provided by PB. You might want to do a google search and see if you can get hold of the tools for yourself, I am sure it will answer a lot of your questions.

The only problem with the mods when you create a quest is that you can't make voice reccording and you only read subtitles  .

You didn't understand my question, I know they used C++ (or maybe C) when writing hard coded functions, but I am interested in development of their scripting language. And, of course, they probably used 3D studio for cinematics...
Thanx anyway, at least someone try to help.
By the way I am trying to translate dialogs in game with hexeditor in my language(Serbian) just for fun, but I did something wrong and game crashes.
