<div dir="ltr">maybe the game engine could move to use mono (which can run ironpython) in the longer term? <a href="http://www.unity3d.com">www.unity3d.com</a> and i think second life use mono as scripting engine. this would also have the advantage that game engine users could use c# and other .net languages for scripting if they want.<br>
<br>i am no expert on all of this though so i will return to lurking mode again... :) <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Aug 23, 2008 at 6:51 PM, Mathias Panzenböck <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:grosser.meister.morti@gmx.net">grosser.meister.morti@gmx.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

because blender uses CPython and it's C API. I think it would need a major<br>
refactoring/rewrite to use another Python implementation. PyPy does not support<br>
CPythons C API:<br>
