Gamebryo

Gamebryo Editor provides a variety of functionalities including a build process. The editor will manage all assets, export from Autodesk Max® and Maya®, and process into platform specific data to be written to the appropriate final directory. This entire system is automated and requires no user interaction.

The Gamebryo Editor is used in level creation to add terrain, entities, lights, cameras and to customize placement and properties.

Enables terrain creation, placement of references for scenes, lights and cameras and the key frame of other variables.

Creates scenes in the Gamebryo Editor and loads via streaming while the game is running. A Set is saved as a .gbs file which contains all model and texture data. Gamebryo builds a set's .gbs file into a finalized .gbf file.
Best used for groups of assets that share resources or need to be controlled by designers. Also used for initializing a character, groups of NPCs or props, or level objects that can appear anywhere in a level.
Useful for dynamic objects which can change appearance or location. These dynamic assets will stay loaded, keeping their current status saved.
Assets that use the same materials or textures can also be grouped within a Set to improve performance and reduce memory footprint, allowing assets to reference resources that would otherwise be duplicated.

Customizable creation and editing platform to make materials and level objects.
Exposes the interface to the material files that represent all parameters used for rendering, gameplay, physics and other variables.

The Preview Viewport enables assets to be viewed while running. Multiple assets can be viewed simultaneously in real-time along with performance statistics such as frame rate, polygon counts and an overdraw indicator.

The Asset Viewer displays both a rendered view of the scene and a complete hierarchical view of the underlying graph, providing detailed information about any object in the scene.
