Research on FPGAs and George Hotz

Continue work on OSE playground

Setup basis for multiplayer and create client/server builds (need help testing between two Linux computers on separate networks)

Create playground UE project with character rig and controls

MJ sez - Seed_Eco-Home_Training_MMOG - just some thoughts on how this could play out

Wes sez - I love the team based competitive building aspect. I think all of this is possible if I push my limits and can get auxiliary dev, 3d modeling/animation, and marketing help. The main hurdle is definitely multiplayer, which can be difficult to develop and test solo, especially because the NetDriver code on Linux is not as stable as on Windows (often networked games made in Unreal only support Windows clients), improving Linux networking is something I'd like to contribute upstream to the engine so other devs can support Linux

Create Metahuman character for OSE game and setup playground project environment

The Datasmith IFC importer plugin only supports Windows due to a 3rd party dll, but it would probably not be that much work to add Linux support

Compiled FreeCAD with CMake configuration to OpenCascade 7.5

• I've been working on exporting the FreeCAD files to glTF so we can use https://modelviewer.dev/examples/loading/index.html

Here's a couple examples of rendering in UE 5 - Archviz

We can reach this level of fidelity: although many of the CAD workflow/rendering features are not available on Linux yet.
