A long long time ago in a galaxy far far away...

Just came aroud to see if the engine and everybody was still alive and kicking. Good to see that it is as RF was the only free engine I ever made any progress with. In fact it's better than most cheap engines even.

Even if I never finished a single RF game. I had a lot of fun, learned a lot, and made some pretty interesting levels.

Really long time Zenbudha,i hope you are doing well.Thank you for reminding the good old glory days.
I still check for good easy and free game engines.ussualy ,the indie licence ones of 100$ are too restricted,their forums are kind of empty or they just do not have enough demos and videos.
Cryengine i heard is heavy to mod so i dont think i will use it,then is udk,for which i got all the tutorials but have nt started watching them yet,in case i find a lighter engine.
Anyway,i have nt finished a game with any engine.

I have UDK on my harddrive. Its an amazing looking engine, and I really enjoy the WYSIWYG-interface in the editor, which a lot of modern engines go for these days. That said, I could only edit and run UDK when I turned off most of the shaders, and other bells and whistles. Untill I get a NASA PC, I think I'm gonna stick to a lighter engine that doesn't eat up quite as much resources. :P

I've spend some time looking for free engines at sites like ModDB, but I don't think there's any other engine that is free to license like RF / Genesis 3D. Well, you can still simulate some good looking 3D effects in RF.

Talk about a blast from the past! Nice to see you again, Zenbudha. I have no idea if you even remember me, but I sure remember you. Oh, the nostalgia. :)

I'm not even gonna try to contribute - just stopping by to say hi.
