    Open 3D Engine (O3DE) is an Apache 2.0-licensed multi-platform 3D engine that enables developers and content creators to build AAA games, cinema-quality 3D worlds, and high-fidelity simulations without any fees or commercial obligations.

  • Cool!

    An alternative OSS 3D engine is Open 3D Engine (O3DE), more here: https://o3de.org/

    This is a new Linux Foundation project. (Full disclosure: I work for the LF, though I don't have any connection to O3DE.)

  • GodotAIGym

    Communicating with godot engine through shared memory

  • There’s also an interface to use OpenAI Gym environments in Godot.

    https://github.com/lupoglaz/GodotAIGym

    I have succeeded in modifying the new interface to send images to a version of Google’s DreamerV2 RL learner. I have a simple test environment I could publish.

    But I stalled because I kept getting a segmentation fault and I wasn’t up for debugging it.

    I think it would be very cool to be able to make a game in Godot and then train an agent to play it using DreamerV2 or similar. I’ve still not posted my sample files but if someone responds here saying they would like to see it, I will try to push it all to GitHub.
