Unreal Engine
Comared to what we do with the Irrlicht Engine, just doesn't add up to the commercial engine "Unreal Engine" Its incredible and seems so easy to use. These companies such as UbiSoft uses unreal engine, Its crazy because we use c++ and they use unreal engine, it provides a GUI based creation software. That is easy to use... such and such... Like drag and drop... And it has amazing
effects and such... Geez...

the lowest cost unreal engine you acn get is the unreal engine runtime, a stripped off version of the engine with no game related content. It's aroung US$7500 -$8000, but you can't use it for games, only for stuff like simulations or architectural walkthrus. You can dl the demo and try it out for yourself. But the real stuff till unreal engine 2.5 was around US$350.000? (correct me if I'm wrong). I can't imagine how much UE3 will cost!
so, no, it's not open source...definitely!

I don't mean to stomp on your sausage, but what the hell are you on about, as far as I'm aware theres no GUI based creation software, ok sure you get UnrealEd which is a level editor (a damn good one but it won't make a game for you) I believe they use Maya for the models.Anonymous wrote:Its crazy because we use c++ and they use unreal engine, it provides a GUI based creation software.

The actual game logic and game interface is written in UnrealScript (progs) and thats a language similar to C++ in some respects so why are you saying it's GUI based creation software. Please research more into what you type, then I won't have to show you up.
Plus as already mentioned Irrlicht is opensource and the UnrealEngine will cost you more than a couple of houses.

Oh, please, please... turn OFF the guest account.Its people like you with your stupidity that makes registered users want to turn off the guest account....
C'mon, it's bad enough dealing with the 'noobs' who do register and simply spout rubbish and nonsense. Then you get idiots like the one who started this thread. I don't know if they're trolling, mis-informed or just plain stupid.
I guess I'd just call him/her an "unreal poster"...
Wow... He almost makes me wish they'd turn off the guest feature (ironic, I know).
Considering what Irrlicht can do (at least what I've seen from the screenshots), it may not be everything that Unreal is (for obvious reasons), but it's certainly powerful enough. For low-budget projects, Irrlicht way better, IMHO (though that may be extremely self-evident).
