Skyscraper Simulator (formerly Skyscraper Project), also known as Skyscraper Sim, Skyscrapersim,[1] Skyscraper 3D, or simply Skyscraper[1] is a free and open-source 3D building simulator created by Ryan Thoryk, currently utilizing the OGRE graphics rendering engine, and formerly using Crystal Space.
History
Skyscraper was originally developed in Microsoft Visual Basic using the Truevision3D graphics engine, and simulated a single building (an early design of the Triton Center, the program's flagship building). The first release of Skyscraper was released on December 27, 2002. A 1.0 stable release was released in mid-2004, followed by a gradual complete redesign and rewrite in C++ using the Crystal Space simulation engine with wxWidgets for the graphical user interfaces (GUIs) control panel. The first release of the rewritten simulator (version 1.1, released as 2.0 Alpha 1) was released on January 6, 2009.[2] Skyscraper's latest stable release, version 1.11 (released as "2.0 Alpha 11") was released on April 13, 2023. The last version to use the Crystal Space engine was the September 19, 2012 build. Beginning with the July 28 2024 build, the simulator is now in the 2.0 Beta stage. As of the most recent build (November 27, 2024), the Mac version of the simulator is now signed by Apple.[3] There is also a new menu screen since the 2.0 Beta release.
