Forums games development
Doesn't matter what engine you use, nor does it matter how many people are working on the project. I noticed their are lots of Animators and modelers that let their skill go to waste. Soooooooooo, here we are. Here we will list a bunch of Free and simple engines to advance engines like Cry Engine 3....
3D Engines
(You can get free versions of all these, these are my top choices)
Torque 3D (Free)
NeoAxis (Free)
Cry Engine 3 SDK (Free)
Unity 3D (Has a free verison, but sadly to get stuff like Shadows and shaders, you need to purchase the full version)
3D Rad (Pretty bad imo)
Delta3D (Really old)
Unreal Engine
2D Engines
(Free only)
Love 2D
SDL (C++)
(tell me more)

A small FPS game - (by me)
Are you a modeler looking for a team?
If so then come here! Just post if you want to be added.
Tips & Advice
1. Use an engine that EVERYONE in your team can use and grasp on easier. (I suggest using NeoAxis at first, then advance to something else)
2. Don't over do things
3. Make sure your animations are as smooth as can be
4. Make sure your game has at least 2 supported platforms (Mac & Windows most likely)
5. Make sure lighting works for both people who cannot run Shadows and Shaders and for people who can. (Otherwise some of your games surprises and stuff will be taken away by the lighting)
6. Make a small demo to start with.
7. Use good textures
8. Don't get mad if you don't succeed at first.
