@Duion Oh yeah, for sure. The RPKs would absolutely not be full demos with fancy polish or anything. I did figure on some larger-scale ones that act as a baseline for a general gameplay style(similar to how the full template acts like a basic FPS deathmatch shooter) but it obviously wouldn't be inte...

Oh, dang it people did some replies when i went to post. heh. Ok, so this discussion originally started with talk about engine-side contributions. If you were trying to discuss having a solid launch-off point so people focusing on doing a game rather than engine work can get on with that, then sure,...

At this point, I'm not even sure what your point is.

@Skipper As I've been doing my research on it, I started with a leaning towards T2D as the cleancore base, but I've been gravitating towards a incremental refactor of T3D in-place with T2D as a sort of reference guide/crib sheet. I'll be doing up a post here soon going into my findings relating to t...

Ultimately, what it boils down to is that Torque has a ton of systems and utilities built in already. You're right, with other engines you can wisk off to the app store, drop dozens or hundreds of dollars and get an addon to drop in. One of the things I've been leaning on is simpler editor tool impl...

Made more sense to do a development thread for the game class conversion in particular so we can track on that better:

@ Happenstance I can work on a draft of the 'todo/to-convert' for the E/C stuff tonight or tomorrow to act as a springboard for you and anyone else wanting to pitch in on that end

@Happenstance Sounds like a plan to me :D @Razer Obviously if people can contribute to fixes and core development, that's most pertinent to the current specific discussion happening. That absolutely does not, however, mean that people just working on games and stuff script-side are unimportant. Very...

When you only have a handful of people contributing finding ways to double down and improve on those strengths makes more sense to me than trying to grasp at every whizbang feature ThatOtherEngine™ has. Quite so, which is why we've actually been pretty selective with what work we're putting real ef...
