why would you want to use an outdated game engine on purposeespecially when the newer version of it is free and open-source
A friend wants to start on making video games and his computer can't run any of these fancy new game engines.
it's only hard to run if you make it hard to run. just because it uses T3D doesn't mean it's going to be intensive by default. I'm 100% sure you can disable any fancy lighting effects or anything like that
He uses a celeron...
tell him to get a better computer then. no way is he gonna do anything with such a stuffty computer
jesus christ. a 2D engine is probably gonna be the only decent option in that case
He wants to make 3d games.
why? you can make a better looking 2D game or a nasty outdated 3D game. does he even have any programming experience? it's probably better to start with 2D anyway
