rapt0r Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Anyone else here uses Ogre3D for games? It is one of the most popular open source graphics rendering engines currently. I have just started using it and I must say it's a great engine! I'm still learning it though You can see some screenshots taken from actual games here: http://www.ogre3d.or...d_Projects.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nathan Posted March 1, 2012 Administrators Share Posted March 1, 2012 Looks cool, so it's a new one then? What's the benefit of it over OpenGL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapt0r Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 Looks cool, so it's a new one then? What's the benefit of it over OpenGL? It's not that new, it has been around since 2001. Ogre3D is a wrapper for OpenGL, however the idea of such a wrapper is that you don't have to concern yourself with the intricacies of OpenGL, basically you have to do less work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androidz Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Will this be portable or is it tied to a particular platform? I like the idea that it uses OpenGL, but I also know that it doesn't necessarily mean that it can run on Linux as well as other exotic devices.

tronik Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Ogre3D is okay, there are better game engines that you can use. I put a list together for Free 3D Game Engines if anyone that interested in game development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryce12 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 @Raptor the list is amazing. I was not aware that Ogre3D was used to create so many games. Can you share something that you have designed? @Tronik that's a great list, thanks for sharing it. Bryce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
