A C++ engine?

I like the design of Paul Baker''s Octagon engine. The open source project, Ogre, is another good one, but more complicated. I''ve heard the Unreal source is nice, but personally wasn''t able to make much out of it.

Because you asked for source code that''s "small and simple" - no C++ game engine is small or simple.

Look for Doom or Quake source on idsoftware.com

Not C++. John Carmack has coded all his game engines in C up to this point (Doom III is in C++).

An interesting C++ engine (and one for which a lot of documentation is available) is the Half-Life engine. All you need is the Half-Life SDK (get it from Valve Software; search under Google), and a C++ compiler. You can see how games such as Counter-Strike work off the Half-Life engine, and the whole thing's written in C++...

Bear in mind that you don''t actually get the engine source code in the SDK, just the interface to it. There''s the possibility that Valve will release the full HL1 source when HL2 comes out, like iD did with their stuff.

Still, the interface alone is pretty inspirational...

Insanity is right, I forgot about that.

octagon i nice

is there another c++ engine with lower system requirements?
