**LUPUS ENGINE**
*The Sharpest Engine....*


Lupus Engine (Previously known as Orion+#) started as a project to convert Orion+ to c# just to see how fast I could do it.
I succeeded in about 4 days though it was quite unstable. After a lot of work the engine is starting to become stable and useable!
I Have fixed many bugs while also intoducing many new features and improvements!

I know you can remove the eclipse logos on client in silver edition i did it just go to client and into graphics and pictures/gui and replace the logos thats what i did tho on server and server select*Client* i don't know how to change but you can disable the server selector and the server.. well no one will see that so no need to worry.

I still like to advertise eclipse origins tho ingame because its a great tool!
