Questions and Answers

As answered by people managing Avoyd and SpriteStack.

What's the story behind your product?

Avoyd's answer

Avoyd started out in 1999 as a multiplayer first person shooter with a fully modifiable voxel world, arguably the first such type of game. Many of our early players were mainly interested in building structures with our game, and so when we came back to making a modern version of Avoyd we decided to put a strong focus on the Voxel Editor.

What makes your product unique?

Avoyd's answer

Avoyd Voxel Editor supports extremely large voxel worlds. It can import and renders entire Minecraft worlds as voxels.

How would you describe your primary audience?

Avoyd's answer

Minecraft map makers and modders, along with voxel artists who want to assemble and render large scenes or export to mesh for use in Games or 3D content tools with physically based materials.

Which are the primary technologies used for building your product?

Avoyd's answer

Avoyd runs on our in-house voxel game engine written in C++ using:

OpenGL (and soon Vulkan).
GLFW for the platform windowing layer.
Dear ImGui for the graphical user interface.
enkiTS our open source multithreaded task system.
Runtime Compiled C++ a C++ programming technique we developed for iterative development.

For a full list of technologies used in Avoyd see our FAQ.

Voxels in Avoyd are compressed with our proprietary enkiOT voxel octree technology, which is also used for ray casting. The enkiOT library is used in the Mercuna AI 3D Pathfinding middleware and has been shipped in a number of AAA titles over the years.

Who are some of the biggest customers of your product?

Avoyd's answer

Mercuna - AI navigation for games
kintsukuroi - Minecraft terrain creator
Meowbeard - Minecraft maps creator

Nope, https://spritestack.io/ . Very powerful little program still being developed as far as I know but what is already there is well worth the asking price. Once the animation stuff is fully fleshed out I plan on using this as my main tool for developing assets for my passion projects. Source: over 2 years ago
