Question About TorqueScript and "Custom Client Modification"
by Sam.Online · in Torque 3D Beginner · 09/19/2009 (12:03 pm) · 1 replies
Hi, i haven' yet bought T3D (nor did i bought TGEA or anything else either), i guess i could find a warez version easily and "test it" but i don't want to and, could it really answer my questions in wished time?
from what i can understand the "binary" made from Torque3D is dependable on "Main.cs" which is a pure TorqueScript file (no compilation or anything), doesn't it mean the client could easily modify or make a kind of "hack" from it? I mean... if you want to make an action game with a multi player option, it could begin to cause problems don't you think?
another question that cross my mind, how does the rendering engine performs compared to other like: Ogre (i know Ogre is just a rendering engine, but i'm only talking about the rendering performance here xD) or Unity?
(Please, excuse my english)

Rendering performance so far seems really good in T3D (runs well on my MacBook, too). I haven't compared to Unity lately (which might be less brilliant than T3D now), but I think Ogre is around the same in raw speed. I've really only looked at the demos without any framerate measurements, but it's a very capable rendering engine.
T3D comes with all the cool tools, though. It'll be even easier to get started once more genre kits are available than just the FPS kit.
