Very nice video indeed. Now what we lack is easy to use content creation tools, and having that run looking like that with more drivers (just guessing it won't run or look as nice on non-nvidia).

You are right about the NVidia thing though... I have heard that XReal runs pretty badly on Ati cards... I guess it's their crappy OpenGL implementation again.

I already searched through the internet and couldn't find any active projects.
http://code43.net
and
http://openterror.com/
don't seem very active recently,
rouge reborn
doesn't seem to be active anymore or the developers are just on vacation...
and It isn't easily compiled on anything but Ubuntu 10.04 .
So where are the mods that are really being openly developed?
true combat: close quarters battle doesn't really count, because it's a one-man projekt, which isn't developed openly.
You seem to know something we don't so please don't leave us in the dark .

I'm a bit out of the loop in regards to ET modding too... but this is a rather interesting project that recently popped up:
An I guess they will follow Xreal to the ET engine (even though they were thinking about using another engine, like for example the Quake2 based Overdose (http://www.team-blur-games.com/overdose/ also looking for help) before the source release of ET was announced).
Otherwise if you are into Open-source game development in general check out our nice blog:
freegamer.blogspot.com
(we had the Xreal news first btw... I am suspecting that Phoronix copied it from us )

Concerning Blender... have you tried the new 2.5 beta? It is really a completely different story to previous releases. Of course it is a highly complex program... just like you can not expect to learn Maya very quickly either.
The exporters (I have tried) are pretty good too for blender, but currently there are still some missing for the new 2.5 beta, but that will change soon I think.
