Irrlicht Engine

No shaders, and I admit I cheated with the sky glowings, but that's an effect I wish to get in the final release !

I hope we can have a whole website soon. In the meanwhile I'd like to inform you that we wish to recruit 2 new partners, considering the amount of work still ahead :)

Trust me, when the material will be even remotely interestingly playable, It'll be online

Due to the size of the gate (maybe 3 - 3,5 meters high), I didn't think a textured plane would have made it nice-looking enough. Besides, the gate is meant to be an animated mesh which can open/close, so it was definitely not a solution to be considered.
The polycount is not so high anyway, and ...

As for the lightning stuff, I'll try this thanks :)

Dev plan is clever too.

Look forward seeing more.

But I really don't see the problem with Max.
