Is 3DGameStudio worth the $$

I used 3D Gamestudio in the A5 version days -- the current version is A6 I beleive.

Basicly what I found out is that in order to get your games to look like those screens, you have to pay lots of $$$ for the commercial/pro edition. It was pretty easy to make games though, and I got a lot of experience before moving on to C++.

Although I havn't tried Torque, I would say that since you get the full version for one price, you should go with that. I myself would never break from C++ back to 3D gamestudio.

Today I checked out the Torque engine. It looks like it comes with everything I need. Texture editor, level editor, model editor. I am going to download the 2D trial (since that is my immediate focus) and go from there.

If anybody else has advice, for or against Torque; OR for or against 3DGameStudio A6, please post.

Thanks

Phil

If you haven't already, you will need to learn C++ to use Torque.

I do know C++. I started using it 7 years ago.

I just tried to download the 2D engine demo, but found out that there is no demo of it. I think I am just going to drop the $100 on it. If it isn't what I was looking for, no harm no foul.
