And be sure to watch our [presentation at DelphiCon 2021 _today_](https://delphicon.embarcadero.com/talks/castle-game-engine-coming-to-delphi/)! The development of Delphi port is now happening within [PR #350](https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/pull/350). We have almost everything in CGE working now smoothly in Delphi! ## Works: - [glTF, X3D (classic and XML), Spine, sprite sheets (and likely all other TCastleScene formats)](https://castle-engine.io/creating_data_model_formats.php). - X3D nodes and fields, including interpolators (animations). - [TCastleViewport, TCastleScene](https://castle-engine.io/manual_load_3d.php) which are our most important classes to render game world. - [Audio](https://castle-engine.io/creating_data_sound.php) (WAV and OggVorbis). Be sure to place the OpenAL DLLs alongside EXE (build tool will do it for you automatically). - TCastleUserInterface and descendants. - Teading JSON designs. - TCastleWindowBase on Windows 32 and 64-bit. - [CGE editor](https://castle-engine.io/manual_editor.php) support for Delphi IDE, you can choose Delphi as code editor, Delphi as compiler, default is to autodetect. - [Build tool support for Delphi compiler `dcc*`](https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/wiki/Build-Tool), compiler can be chosen on command-line or in [manifest](https://github.com/castle-engine/castle-engine/wiki/CastleEngineManifest.xml-examples), default is to autodetect. - Build tool support for the Delphi project – generates DPROJ, DPR, warns when using LPR (as Delphi doesn’t handle it). - Image formats: - [Physics](https://castle-engine.io/manual_physics.php). - [Utilities for typical 3D games (ready creatures, items, levels)](https://castle-engine.io/manual_high_level_3d_classes.php). ## Some examples that compile and work with Delphi (as well as FPC of course): - examples/user\_interface/state\_events - examples/3d\_rendering\_processing/collisions - examples/mobile/simple\_3d\_demo/ - examples/3d\_rendering\_processing/view\_3d\_model\_basic/ - examples/3d\_rendering\_processing/view\_3d\_model\_advanced/ (use this to load any model or image from [https://github.com/castle-engine/demo-models](https://github.com/castle-engine/demo-models) ! ) - examples/animations/play\_animation - all 4 templates created by “New Project” from CGE editor - examples/terrain - examples/physics/\* - examples/fps\_game (Soon, all examples will follow.)
