A possible long-term strategy for further growth/reuse of WF:

• Interface Blender and attribedit
• Make WF export scripts for Blender
• Finish level editing system with Blender (paths, anything else that is needed)
• Write Blender geometry and animation export scripts/WF import scripts

I guess the above could probably be reached in half a year at current capacity. (Current date Tue Oct 8 13:38:09 GMT 2002) At this point Blender can be used to create everything you need for a WF level. Blender's powerful capabilities (like skinning, IK, skeletons) allow creating animated character meshes, etc, just like the Superhero demo.

Then the possibilities are many:

• Advertise WF more in the Blender community as an alternative cross-platform game engine for which worlds can be created with Blender and attribedit. Blender has a large community of artists and aspiring game designers.
• Try to integrate attribedit more into Blender
• Integrate WF engine into Blender? Or make a smooth "one-button" preview possibility via python scripting which exports the level and calls the WF executable from within blender
• Do various improvements to the core WF engine as listed on wiki (see Ideas, WishList, RoadMap, ToDo)
• Investigate using the Nebula Device (http://nebuladevice.sourceforge.net) as a rendering back-end for WorldFoundry. See InterfacingNebulaDeviceAndWorldFoundry.
