Hi,
I am new to the forums. I hope to buy the Torgue game engine in a few month but i have a few questions about it:
1. I live in the UK can i pay in pounds
2. Will I need MS visual studio for any of the programing or will the GUI programing thing be all i need.
3. Is all the programing in C++

1. You buy it online, so I'm sure whatever method you use will allow for currency conversion... and plenty of people in the UK own the engine.

2. You will need an IDE and compiler for modifying/coding the C++ portion of the engine. I believe Visual Studio Express is still being given away free by Microsoft, and there are instructions for setting up the engine to be compiled with it.

3. No, you do a significant amount of coding in the engine's native scripting language. It's like a simpler more stripped down version of C.

I all ready have MS Visual studio.net 2003 so that should work ok. but i just wanted to check.
I am going to college to study games development and I wanted a good engine to have at home for prastic and to develop projects my self.
thanks
