Getting Fun Now...

One of our design principles for Leadwerks3D is to make development fast. You need to be able to iterate and re-iterate quickly, to try out ideas and make adjustments in as few of mouse clicks as possible. A real-time properties editor is definitely one way to enable that. In the screenshot below, I can adjust the intensity and color of the light dynamically, and see the results instantly. It feels so responsive and natural.

 

I feel like this design philosophy gets us back to our roots with Cartography Shop and 3D World Studio. Those were tools built for level designers, by a level designer (me) who wanted better tools.

The concept behind this is nothing new. It is quite common, Unity, ShiVa, Gamestart, all of the engines with an IDE have this now. It is not a new, breakthrough feature.
