Download Alien Swarm and the Alien Swarm SDK. --- End quote --- that's a MODDING tool you can't change how the engine works --- Quote from: Marcem on February 05, 2011, 03:55:59 AM ---Alien Swarm. Outdated? Nope. --- End quote --- source takes ages to load anything remotely large (AS maps are tiny), it can't do open areas well, it relies on slightly updated map making engine that was originally made 14 years ago, almost all the lighting is pre-baked stuff that takes forever to render, the AI out of the box is horrible, the dynamic lights are resource hogs (even compared to STALKER) |

It uses an events system for programming your game or you can use Python; plus there's various behaviors for objects that are implemented as base-level plugins such as top-down driving behaviors or physics. It is however still not at its first 'full release' (version 1.0) and probably still has some bugs and such floating around in several places. It's easy as piss to learn, but I dunno what's changed, I last used it at version 0.92 or something. --- End quote --- would be the way to go if you want to modify the engine itself. I would recommend people start with making simple 2d games before they move on to 3d games. |

Sure the source engine is dated, but it still works just fine. |
