Anyone out there still using T3D?

I messed around with T3D back when Kenneth C. Finney wrote the first edition of "3D Game Programming All in One".
But now thought I would try to get back into T3D again. I got the free source of T3D 3.10.1 and compiled it on my windows machine. I recently found a hardback version of "3D Game Programming All in One 3rd Edition" complete with unopened DVD inside. So, I have all of the original files for the missions in the book.
Just wanted to know if there were others still kicking the tires and lighting the fires with the new open source T3D?
I am not an artist, I am more of a programmer, so I will need some art help if anyone is interested in donating their time on a project. Let me know if anyone wants to collaborate. Thanks

Head over to...

https://torque3d.org/

There's a discord channel linked on the page that's plenty active, lots of familiar names still around.

Can you be a little more specific? I don't see a discord link on there anywhere.
Thanks

I finally found it. I had to login first and the Discord link appeared.
Doh!
