Sindwiller: Corrected some grammar mistakes which hurt my eyes a lot. The conjugation of verbs in the English language isn't a big deal, seriously :P

DarkPlaces

2008-02-04T21:11:42Z

Sindwiller:

'''''DarkPlaces''''' is a 3d game engine based on ''Quake'', created by [[Forest Hale]]. It features many improvements over the original Quake engine, such as client-side [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuakeC QuakeC], limited support for the Quake 3 material shader system, decals, support for Quake 3 file formats, etc, while still remaining fully compatible to the original Quake assets and its QuakeC code. Hence why no major changes to the interface have been made. ''Darkplaces'' is licensed under the [[GNU General Public License]].<ref>[http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=596 linuX-gamers post that metions license as GPL]</ref>

==Games==
''DarkPlaces'' is being used by the [[First-person shooter game|first-person shooter game]] ''[[Nexuiz]]''.

Sauerbraten (engine)

2007-10-09T12:29:20Z

Sindwiller: Added Cube engine link

The '''Sauerbraten Engine''' is the [[Cube_Engine|Cube Engine's]] successor. Sauerbraten got founded by Wouter "Aardappel" van Oortmerssen and recieved lots of interest from other developers. Like Cube, it features in-game map editing and cooperative editing over the internet. Unlike Cube, Sauerbraten has lots of eyecandy functionality, like normal-, specular- and parallax-mapping, glow shaders and shadows. One of the biggest changes is probably the use of lightmaps for level lighting, rather than fast vertex lighting like Cube did. Sauerbraten is licensed under the [[Zlib_License|zlib/libpng License]], which is an approved open source license and compatible to the [[GNU_General_Public_License|GPL]].
