Genres possiable with Torque?

by Michael McDowell · in Torque Game Engine · 09/15/2005 (7:03 am) · 4 replies

Hey guys,

what kind of genres can The torque 3D game engine do?

could you make a "Sports Car GT"(ISI,electronic arts, 1998) with the torque 3d game engine or would the Torque Shader Engine be better suited for that?(Sports Car GT- an endurence racing game like the Rolex-24 style racing)

and is the 3D Programming all in one a good book to use for both the toque 3D engine and the Torque Shader Engine???

    I would think that if you can imagine it, and you have the programming/artistic/musical talent to make it happen, then Torque should be able to do pretty much anything.

    Brett Fattori is working on dRacer, a Torque powered driving game and it looks pretty sweet. Check through some of his blogs to see what it's like.

    Consider this:

    You have everything from Marble Blast, to Lore, to an Massive Game (MoM) , to a 3D turn based replica of Scorched Earth.

    I can't speak for the shader engine, as I don't own it, but the book as been a HUGE help for me starting with Torque.

    Not only with the scripting, but also how to get the models, interiors and artwork into your game.

    It's a must have as far as I'm concerned.
