Tocmai am vazut o stire in care cei de la Crytek au decis sa faca CryEngine3 gratis. Adica cu alte cuvinte acum toata lumea poate descarca SDK-ul lor pentru a-si incerca talentul. Trebuie doar sa intrati pe site-ul lor si sa descarcat (easy as that). Iar in urma cu 2 ani cei de la Epic games au facut engine-ul lor gratis (Unreal Engine 3).

O sa pun stirea de acu 2 ani ( Epic Sets The Unreal Engine Free ) dar si cea de acum ( CryEngine 3 SDK: download now for free | VG247 )
For those that fancy themselves as sculptors of the future, Crytek�s world-building game engine is available now for free. Unreal.

The press release announcing the launch of the CryEngine 3 SDK touts it as the �latest all-in-one game development solution�. What�s more, it�s free for all non-commercial endeavours.
The �What you see is what you play� third-generation toolkit is available from the CryDev website. It weighs in at a smidgen over 658MB and has seen close to 20,000 downloads at the time of writing.
Documentation and community support is also available via the website, so you�ve really no excuse to dive in and attempt to create the games of tomorrow, today � �Crytek require only 20% of the developer�s revenues from the commercial launch of their game.�
It goes up against the Unreal Development Kit, which is also free, and should result in some exciting projects from the visionaries among you.
Just do us a favour and, for the sake of originality, try to create something without death and violence in it, OK?

Stirea asta m-a facut foarte fericit avand in vedere ca zilele astea o sa imi cumpar un laptop nou si in mai putin de o luna merg in Anglia la Game Design. Asa ca o sa incerc engine-urile astea cat de curnad. Ma gandeam sa cumpar si Amnesia: The Dark Descent tot pentru engine-ul lor care il ofera impreuna cu jocul celor de la frictional games (HPL 2) Engine.


Ma gandeam ca poate sunt si alti entuziasti pe forum si ma cred ca aici ar trebui sa postam aici idei, nelamuriri sau tot felu de "creatii"... just for the fun of it (oricum si de facem ceva de distractie tot capatam experienta...so it`s a win-win situation). Sa aveti spor!
