Other versions are available, at a lesser price.
3DCakeWalk allows you to create games with little or no coding.
It includes a WYSIWYG Editor, easy to use Python Scripting, Sound, Multiplayer, and more.

I have an program too... with only 3 clicks ( of curse no programming experience ) you will create the ultra mog of all times. Just try to imagine what you can do with 4 clicks...
And i'm giving it for free ...

Maybe your product is good, nice, etc ...
But believe me no one will believe you.

Game Programming & Development Just Got Easier
Plan, design, and create enthralling game environments complete with richly animated characters and objects, using today's best graphic choices, DirectX Graphics, OpenGL or its own software renderer. 3DCakeWalk allows the development of commercial quality games with all the "state of art" features, including our patent pending MLE technology, but at a fraction of the cost.

... your screen shots don't really make me believe that i will be able to do an quake 2 or warcraft 2 game type ... (maybe i'm wrong ...)

Any way with out an easy to get demo (i just couldn't download any demo from the site ) you don't have too much chance to do something ...

Ps.
and the prices are too big ... there are many alternatives ... and many free alternatives ..

3DCakeWalk uses the Irrlicht Engine!

Conquistador · Post by **Conquistador** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 2:51 am

If I wanted something like this, I'd buy Torque, it's half the price and kicks way more ass.

3DCakeWalk · Post by **3DCakeWalk** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 3:01 am

From Torque(GarageGames); Believe the $100 per programmer price for the license, too. As long as your company has less than $250,000 in sales, you can publish your game anywhere, for any price without any royalties or further commitment to GarageGames except for displaying the TGE logo upon game start up.

Most people might not care, but some hope to make money on projects they created!

Torque is a great engine however, buut so is Irrlicht!

Well my software, Freeworld3D 2.0, is only $30.00, not $200.00 and has a nicer interface ;-p

Nice program, but it's not a GDK like 3DCakeWalk!

3DCakeWalk · Post by **3DCakeWalk** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 3:21 am

3DCW also has a $50.00 version, that is a complete game development kit, using Irrlicht!

Captor's "VSEDITOR" and "IRRSED" oprn source is FREE
and can do the job done for some Irrlicht project w/o a budget.

Nonetheless, both 3DC & FREEWORLD is a good apps.

could you add some nice (and actual) screenshots of your project

? the screenshots on your page are reaaally old

pr3t3nd3r_guest · Post by **pr3t3nd3r_guest** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 1:41 pm

and a demo .. trial version ... etc ...

3DCakeWalk · Post by **3DCakeWalk** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 6:52 pm

They have never really released anything with 3DCakeWalk yet. Nothing fancy that is. Doing coding mainly for updates and features. They will release a demo game soon. I will post some "actual" screenshots shortly. You can find some in the gallery.

The red * are not be available until v1.1. Sorry, I didn't noticed that didn't get in there. I just copyed it from the 3DCakeWalk forum. To put in those features now, would have cost another months wait time, and with Christmas in this month, it didn't add up very well.

3DCakeWalk is more than an Editor, it is a complete Game Development Kit (GDK). It has Python Scripting, Sound, Terrain Editor, Multiplayer, all the features of Irrlicht, and more. Talks of advanced physics, sound, particles and more are floating around.

Where can I see VSEDITOR and IRRSED?

the irrlicht forums are not the place to post advertisements for commercial programs which boasts to do things all other irrlicht programs can do too
