Will get a poll up soon for the remaining amount in the pool assigned to bounties

There is going to be a poll for some subset of these to make it to this round of the Bounty Pool. If anyone wants to suggest something else, please do.

Also some of these are pretty vague and if they make it, can get specifics from the community

Love seeing these! I’m planning on taking a close look at the IndexedDB one at some point soon, but there was an idea that I didn’t see here that I was wondering if you’ve considered already: an XNA-style Screen(Scene)Manager component?

This component, like its’ inspiration from the old XNA framework, is responsible for (as implied by the name) managing screens for an application (game). In addition to maintaining a stack of screens and rendering the active one, it also knows how to transition between screens with fades, slides, and wipe transitions.

BJS Scenes would be a logical interface point between the component and BJS, naturally. If we want to be fancy, we could also provide for the ability to cache common assets between scenes to avoid having to re-load them from disk, cache, or network

Developers would use this component to quickly put together a multi-screen game or app - from Splash screen to main menu, all the way through gameplay and final credits. It’s possible this is duplicated by other examples, templates, and such, but wanted to throw the idea out there!

Thoughts?

Hello, trying to wrap up this first amount in the pool being spent. Please vote for your top 7 issues here suggested by the community or BJS folks. Will keep the voting open a few days :slight_smile:

If I should add links or detail to any or missed something, let me know.

I have already done this a while back :slight_smile:

it’s a vite project with everything setup to be able to start playing around.

I created it out of my own needs, but It would be great to continue the work with having a couple of templates for:

  • bare minimum
  • product viewer
  • first person game

but if the babylon team wants to have the npm lib create-babylon let me know and I can transfer it.

Any updates on the bug bounty? Did that bear some fruits?

There was some activity on a few but sadly they have not responded in a while sadly. I went ahead and released the poll ones, hopefully some get picked up.

I’ll probably move the ones that have gone stale back to ‘Ready’ meaning someone else could pick them up.

Also cc’ing @jelster who was interested in these bounties.

Ah yeah, that’s my bad on at least one of them - pretty much all of Q1 2023 has been filled with things taking me away from my computer and from OSS contributions :confused:

Good news though is that I’m freeing up more now and am almost all the way caught up (this being one of those things left to catch up on…)

Don’t let me hold things up though if there is someone who wants to take a bug!
