Entity communication: Message queue vs Publish/Subscribe vs Signal/Slots This is seriously how commercial game engines do it. He's not joking. Target.NotifyTakeDamage( DamageType, DamageAmount, DamageDealer, etc. ) is usually how it goes. |

What scripting language should I choose for my game? JavaScript does have traction. Unity uses it. So does Wolfire Games for their engine. |

Unreal Engine 3 vs id Tech 3 vs Unity I wish we could post credentials so that words like "uneducated" couldn't be used. I'm a professional Unreal programmer. You'll note, we're talking about the UDK, not the full Unreal source code. Please read everything before commenting. The UDK gives only script access, as such it's difficult to do any major changes to the engine. Additionally, Hail to the Chimp is not a triple-A title. I don't understand the need to ignore the OP's needs. Re-read his desires. He doesn't want to code in C++, that removes ID tech from the race, UnrealScript is similar to C++/Java... Unity it is! |

Unreal Engine 3 vs id Tech 3 vs Unity Seriously? You get a world editor. You don't have a materials editor, particle editor, physics editor, animset editor, animtree editor, or any of the various tools that make UnrealEd the industry standard and most licensed engine in the world. Plenty of wonderful games have shipped with id tech as their backbone. Guess what? They heavily modified the engine and build custom tools. It doesn't even use skeletal animation from the get-go! Unity3D? No triple-A title has been shipped with Unity. It does not support Xenon or PS3; so, you won't see any shipped on it. Happy? |

Unreal Engine 3 vs id Tech 3 vs Unity It would probably take far more effort to utilize Ogre3D for your project. As you're looking for a rapid solution, I'd say stay away from it. If you want to expand out and build your own engine, go for it! It's very well maintained and a joy to work with! I just can't wait until it's ported to 360 and PS3! |
