Tie Fighter Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Assuming Che Guevera is taken to represent Revolution, then simply google "Revolution3D". It would seem that Revolution are a company involved in 3D graphics. No great mystery - everyone kept referring to "Revolution" and "3D" - I just added them together and googled them! Mystery solved?

Matthew Le God Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I doubt if SI ever had a 3D engine they would have another company make it for them. More likely they would develop it in house in conjunction with the other game modules and hire animators to make it or alternatively develop an existing football game eg. PES to work with the FM match engine. Looking at website of the company you mention their work isn't exactly impressive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeeman27bob Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 It will not be 3d , Fm09 uses the same match engine as FML - which is in 2d. The match engine is the thing the makes the calculations and decisions. The 2D/3D part is the visual representation. So theoretically FM09 could use the same engine as FML, but still show matches in 3D. Personally I hope it doesn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abaddon879 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 When you hear about SI hiring animators or 3d graphics artists, then perhaps would be a good time to condier a 3d engine. Think about how long it took SI to change to 2d. They were one of the last to implement a visual representation of the pitch. Many football management sims had 3d engines before SI had even got a 2d engine. I don't expect to see 3d for a few years yet. And then it would require vast amounts of processing and graphical power. If SI's attention to detail when it comes to movement on the ball is anything to go by, they wouldn't make a 3d engine until it could look and feel like real life.

It would seem that Revolution are a company involved in 3D graphics. No great mystery - everyone kept referring to "Revolution" and "3D" - I just added them together and googled them! Mystery solved? Looking at Revolution3D's website, I sure doesn't hope that this is what Football Manager would use as graphic engine, if they have decided to implement 3D-matches (And I think the whole Che Guevara = Revolution = Revolution3D is really really reeeeally.... Farfetched). Poor graphics engine! However I do love how these rumours take form. Kudos for an at least creative idea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suge Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 The natural evolution of video games dictates that FM will be 3D sometime in the future.

Bodis Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I'm gonna sneak another prediction in here among the 3d talk: Che was a part of the revolution in Cuba right? Che and his buddies "launched" the revolution on November 25th (thats when they left for Cuba from Mexico City) .... so .... you probably figured where I'm going with this right? FM09 to be launched on November 25th (2008 that is, not 1956 ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norville Rodgers Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Sure Che would have approved of being used to market the biggest selling football management sim of all time Very odd how the image of a man so strongly opposed to capitalist consumerism could become one of the most marketable images in history. Personally, i think the "revolution" suggested by Che's image will be indeed that, a revolution, but i don't think it will be a 3D match engine interface. What it will be, i don't know.

port-ton Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 i dont really think that it will be a 3D engine, but on the Championship Manager site it says other developers have been recruiting animators, and since Fifa already have 3D engine there is really only one competitor left.

Taras_Shevchenko Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I think FM2009 will be exactly the same as FM2008, the only difference will be the incredible amount of cash Man City will have in their coffers.
