Gorilla3D Framework for Delphi/C++ Builder 10.1+
The Gorilla3D Framework is an extension for Firemonkey component library in Delphi and C++ Builder by Embarcadero. It extends the basic 3D functionality and offers additional useful components to create 3D games and applications.
If you don't already have installed Delphi or C++ Builder you can start by downloading the Delphi community editon at: https://www.embarcadero.com/de/products/delphi/starter
The component library uses the OpenGL 4.3+ or OpenGLES v3.0 + technology and currently supports Windows 32/64 and Android 32/64 platforms.
A wide range of classes and components helps you build your game or multimedia app much faster and easier.
We provide a free to download developer edition, which you can use it to develop an application. It contains visual and hardcoded watermarks and can only be used for development purposes. It is not allowed to publish anything built with Gorilla3D. When you're ready to release, you need to buy a commercial license.
Developer Edition
Perfectly suited for small indie developers at the beginning of their project. Start to develop your game or app. When you're ready to publish/release, you need to buy a commercial license!
- visual and hardcoded watermarks
- max. 5 developers in your team
- allowed only for development purposes
- not allowed to release or publish anything
- no limitation to the number of projects
Commercial / Release Edition
A commercial license comes in place, when your project is ready to release or if your team exceeds the number of 5 developers.
- no visual or hardcoded watermarks
- allowed to publish applications compiled with Gorilla3D
- restricted to install on one machine
- for teams with more than 5 developers: each developer / machine needs a single license
