Unfortunate gdevelopā€™s developers didnā€™t are about 3d
They already told us in Facebook and instagram the 3d physics will add to the engine in 2025 but
Is thay mean just 3d physics or 3d physics and 3d nevgation So far, we donā€™t know whatā€™s going on in their heads. :smiling_face_with_tear:

No, theyā€™re pretty explicitly talking about 3D Physics, and donā€™t mention 3D Navigation in there, so you shouldnā€™t be expecting that from their statement.

Well, I just doubted that you are an Arab from your name because I am Egyptian and in Egypt there are women and men named by the same namešŸ˜…

The new update just launched, but the 3d editor is not just here. Are you sure the works are going on?

They said that they are working on it on top of the future plan, and basically it is finished with the initial version, which is semi-problematic, so based on this talk, I thought they would do that, but I donā€™t know why this delay

The above appears to be a narrative built on fiction or misunderstanding.

The only announcement was that looking into and working on a 3D editor was a focus for this year. Doesnā€™t mean it releases this year. Before that announcement there was never a guarantee of a 3D editor at all.

Since there was no timeline given, thereā€™s no delay, nor was there ever an announcement that it would be in the next update.

But they wrote in the blog that they are almost finished the prototype version in it

The most recent blog post is here: Happy New Year and Welcome to 2025! | GDevelop

The only thing in the most recent blog post is

ā€œWeā€™re working to get a ā€œfully usableā€ 3D editor, with a free-look camera. This will allow easier building of 3D levelsā€

Thatā€™s the entire mention about the 3D editor. Thereā€™s nothing about prototypes, no indication that itā€™s nearly finished, nor mentioning that it is in the next release.

The closest thing is mentioning that their 2025 goals are being worked on and they hope to have some of them in the coming months, which could mean anytime this year, and still isnā€™t a guarantee.

Again, I get the excitement, but you appear to have misunderstood what was posted.

Please avoid giving timelines or talk about delays that the team themselves didnā€™t give, because it can cause confusion for yourself or the community.

That is literally what I posted, though?

The second sentence does not change what I mentioned above, and isnā€™t even specific to 3D as it would be for 2D too. Thereā€™s no strict dates, timelines, nor guarantees in that message or in the blog post. That isnā€™t what prototyping means. Your posts in this thread about ā€œNext updateā€ and ā€œdelaysā€ have the potential to cause confusion in the community, and only set yourself up for frustration or disappointment.

It will likely happen, and potentially even this year. Thatā€™s better than last year when they hadnā€™t said anything about making a 3D editor at all, so take that as a win!

However you need to relax a bit about what you post, and not get peopleā€™s hopes up for things that the dev team didnā€™t say.

To be very clear: Yes. By definition your words were wrong.

You told other members of the community that things were coming in timeframes/patch releases that the dev team never mentioned, then tried to say there was a delay when there wasnā€™t any announced release coming in the first place.

Separately, it is not ā€˜a very bad thingā€™ that they didnā€™t add a feature you wanted, since they didnā€™t announce they were going to add it to the engine at all before the blog post above. 3D was only added in May 2023, so it couldnā€™t have been ā€˜more than 2 yearsā€™, either.

Your posts here and elsewhere about these things have been misleading at best, and could potentially be viewed as trolling. All Iā€™m trying to do is ensure you understand why these things and words matter, and am asking you to not mislead other community members in your replies going forward.

At this point none of this is relevant to the thread, and gone on too long, so itā€™s the last response Iā€™ll give to it. Please take the above into consideration before you make misleading posts in the future.
