That's actually not a game engine and it needs alot of programming work to get a acceptable result.

Torque - fucking cheap and works on just about everything. Also looks like crap a lot of the time... but you get what you pay for.

Yeah ogre3d should do it, with some basic skills in C/C++ you will have something decent. That said, the hard part in programming isn't really to render a 3d scene, cause you have a whole lot of premade functions for that, but to make a game with it ====> COLLISIOOONS & PHYSIIICS

not that I would disagree but I think much of the reason people dawg on this engine is mainly because people make crap for it... but it has come a long ways since it was originally released

but also to just mention something about many of these engines... There is only two that have tools and many of them just copy Q3 code with added feature sets like HDR lighting and such. On top of that no physics in many of them, which is a bog amount of work right there and you might as well just start from scratch as I found it to be a pain in the ass to implement a physics engine into code thats already well established.

this engine is actually REALLY good !

my last commercial game gig was based on orge:

only problem ogre has ... it comes basically without any useful tools

I second Torque... some fun Xbox Live Arcade games have been made with that.

Ogre3D is really powerfull and it can handle many things - they lighted some aspect of ogre developement in one of gamestar/dev/'s magazines on Ankh:

Was du nicht sagst... davon habe ich schon Kunde erhalten!

That's because its not a game engine, it's a realtime rendering engine.Very cool work on Alliance btw.

Unity is a really fantastic engine! I had the chance to work with it a Nordic Game Jam 2007 and it was a pleasure. The developers of it are also some great guys:) But yeah the IDE is mac only, but the engine itself runs on Windows.

AmpII! :science:

Actually, I don't recommend that one.

Nebula is pretty cool, though, runs everything through Maya plugins and is free. The educational game I worked on used it; it wasn't super incredible but did the job (plus there were only a handful of people working on it; I'm sure you could do more with more time and a few more people). http://www.radonlabs.de

Earlier version of the engine was used in this game: http://www.radonlabs.de/nomadsscreenshots.html

...which I think still looks pretty cool.

szb looks pretty fucking good ;D
