Popular Stonetrip engine upgrade released today

Shiva 1.9 now available

Stonetrip has announced that the latest iteration of its Shiva engine, 1.9, is available as of today.

The 1.9 engine features coding in C, C++, Cocoa and Objective-C, as well as native compilation capabilities and a unified authoring tool. It is available on a pay-once purchasing model that Stonetrip has said proved successful in older engine models.

“This ShiVa3D upgrade brings in some amazing new capabilities – the Unified Authoring Tool on its own, for example, makes creating games across desktop, console and mobile platforms a smooth, efficient, one-stop process,” said Stonetrip CEO Philip Belhassen.

“This and other features such as the coding abilities and the integration of plug-ins such as PhysX and F-Mod, all contribute to ShiVa3D 1.9’s incredible ease of use while maintaining the excellence of its output.”
