Torque has 2 types of shader engines?
Maxx_:
Now, before you say this is a "omg upgrad engin lps" topic. No, I simply just thought of this.
While playing Marble Blast Gold, which is made from torque, I turned shadows on. Which there was in MBG.
So I found out it seems that Marble Blast Gold, has a slightly different shader type than blockland.
Does torque use the same shading, Or are there 2 shader types?
Before you ask, Marble Blast Gold was made on the same torque engine blockland was made on, now I am not sure, but this seems true.

otto-san:
blockland runs on a rather heavily modified torque engine
marble blast gold probably does too
Melting Plastic:
I remember reading that the stencil shadows in marble-blast were custom built into the engine.
The Black Card:
Marble blast gold, I remember playing in primary school :)
Chrono:
Keep in mind that TGE comes in c++ source code, meaning you can make as many changes to it as you like.
