The nice thing is that because of the MIT license, those coding up their own engines can borrow missing pieces (such as navmesh generation, pathfinding, animation, etc.) from Torque. I really like this move.

Guess it's time to start wearing my old GarageGames t-shirt again. Unfortunately, college was a few years and a few pounds ago...

Well, i wish there would by something like that for Linux. Some of them can compile the games for Linux, but the tools are Win-only.

Torque did build and run (In-game editor an all) on Linux back in the day, although support was always iffy (not sure if that's pre-Torque3D or not) - maybe open-sourcing will bring out some Linux hackers to shore that back up.

I'm one of those who can't use UDK or Unity.... too many buttons, it's confusing.
