Hey guys, I was bored and decided to open a poll- which is the best free game engine.
I will also post links to the various game engines I have come across.

I think I know the result already. We are in the RF forums, after all. :wink:

Out of the engines in your poll, RF is much better and easier to use.

CrystalSpace is not a game engine. It's a rendering engine. It's also extremely difficult to use. It takes like 200 lines of code to get a window rendering a triangle. Very inefficient.

I wouldn't agree completely. CA3D is quite simple and it has better graphics and can handle better models than RF. And in my personal favour it uses C++ and supports multiplayer. I'd check it out if I were you.

CA3DE is a huge engine, but not very powerful or customizable. It is mainly designed for FPS games. RF is way better!

RF can't handle big spaces. So RF is good if game is in small rooms, but if you wanna make huge open spaces CA3D is way better. But I got to agree that CA3D isn't very costumizible. But I love it for one reason - it uses c++
