For all of you guys that speaks in portuguese: I’m from Brazil and I’m already creating some videos teaching Armory3D! Take a look (if you speak Portuguese, of course! :slight_smile:).

Hola blender armory 0.5 cuando sale

Hello blender armory 0.5 when it comes out

I do not know when 0.5 comes out. @lubos Any news on that?

It’s pointless to nag Lubos about dates. It’s not like 0.5 or 0.6 or 0.7 will suddenly make Armory production-ready. It’s in alpha and progressing really nicely. Just enjoy the ride, it’s going to take a while :slight_smile:
