Are the private forums any good ?

I'm serously considering purchasing the engine license.

Will I find people sharing cool stuff like reasonable engine modifications
and helping to create good code ? I'm a programmer.

I know there's a problem for everyone with art, but does the community share engine
modifications ? are the mod's (if any) any good ?

I've seen this engine mod called fxSwarm, it allows bees and flyes to be added in
a swarm. Are there other things like this around.

Is there lots of stuff on TDN ?

Or will I find the forums lean.

Thanks,

There is a huge amount of information in the private forums, resources, and TDN is getting up to speed. But I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for or if the specificity that you're looking for is there.

Areal,

I've found the private forums to be very helpful. I'm not a natural-born coder, but with a lot of help from the community, I've been able to get some cool features into my TGE powered app. A few of the resources are a bit out of date, which is understandable on a constantly forward-moving engine, but overall, I've had very good results with the forums, TDN and the resource pages.

I would definitely recommend getting the engine. I'm currently using TGE and starting to work with TSE and am loving both of them.

BTW, cool nick. :)
