Ogre is a graphics and physics engine Roblox is using right now.

The engine version on Roblox is I think 1.4.4. But when I went to Ogre's website it says they already have a 1.7.3 version!! ROBLOX SHOULD UPDATE ALREADY!!

If they update it can:

1.Make DYNAMIC LIGHTING!!!! FINALLY!!
2.WATER!!!!! FINALLY TOO!!
3.Reduce ALOT of lag
4.I think it's already capable... 60+ PLAYERS IN ONE SERVER!!

So support or nope

You're asking for more lag.

Nope. Cause my graphics card sucks, and I'm not 100% sure if updating it would still support Pixel Shader 2.0

You see, I find this funny because:

1. ROBLOX has ogre3d version 1.6.something, not 1.4.4. It's something like the second-latest release.

2. Ogre3d is a graphics engine. It will NOT give us dynamic lighting, it will NOT let us have 60-player servers, it will NOT let us have realistic water. We could be on the oldest version that still works, and nothing would change.

3. All of you people are stupid. :D

tomato is correct, Dynamic Lighting and Realistic water is something the Roblox people have to create themselves, like how they made fire.

Like don said, true dynamic lighting is impossible.
No game engine has fully utilized dynamic lighting.

Dynamic lighting is basicly more lights in different positions. Like if the sun was copied and placed is ALOT of positions

Dynamic lighting also includes light bouncing and diffusion.

This idea will only contribute to the small (not much, i never notice it) amount of lag that ROBLOX recieves.
