RTS Engine

Post by Kazer0 »

Does anyone know a good rts engine that could be used to make windows games? Like games such as Red Alert, Tiberian Sun, Warcraft, Starcraft... etc. They exsist, such as the tiberian sun engine that westwood accidentally told us about.

I doubt there is. If there was, I'm pretty sure I'd've heard something...

Nope, there's not. We already had this discussion on GH.

Would be nice to have a RTS engine, I would love to get my hands on one.

The 2d Age of Empires series would be nice.

Yeah, 'twould be wonderful. Or the Star/Warcraft engine, though I think that AoE's more flexible.

Oh wait, I just remembered. There's a game called "FreeCraft" on Game Hippo. It's just a WC2 clone right now, but when the final version comes out (it's in beta), it should have a working engine.

I will have to somehow spare some time from track practices to search for an RTS engine. I doubt there is one tht's free. It would be awesome, though...

I searched up FreeCraft and sadly Blizzard­ had it removed since it was too closely related to Warcraft 2 and its engine, Don't you hate them for this now!? :Angry:
