[KOSTAS PETSIS]

Hello,

I am leaning more on intergrated.So i am thinking of the general idead as this:I have a main.cpp that runs the game loop with update and render etc...The user must create new classes and files for extra logic in cpp.I will compile each file as a lib and reload them on the fly when a change occurs(like ue4).So at the end the main.cpp and other files that user created + the API of my engine will compile so that they form a exe/game app.


Now , for playing in the editor, should i have let's say an editor_update() and a seperate outside update() for playing in the compiled version of the game ,same goes for render etc...


Also where in the blender source do i declare my classes?Where is the main-blender.c?


Thank you for your time.Should i ask this on the mailing-list?

You can try to build the engine directly into Blender (like the BGE). This has the downside that you have to either maintain a fork of Blender or try to get your engine submitted to master. You would likely need to GPL your engine code by going this route. However, this gives you pretty direct access to Blender's internals and allows you to reuse some bits of Blender (e.g., rendering, animation, modifiers).

The other route is to build a separate engine that you try to integrate via an addon. This is what BlenderPanda[0] does to integrate Panda3D into Blender. The project makes use of blendergltf[1] to get Blender data into an easy to consume format (glTF[2]) and the Blender Real-time Engine addon (BRTE)[3] to create a connection between Blender and an external engine/process.

Hi, studying the bge's source code will give to you a basic understanding...
