Torque Game Engine - Info

by GoraShrine · in General Discussion · 08/24/2008 (12:36 am) · 4 replies

Hey all, I have been saving up quite a few dollars to buy Torque Game Engine, but I am also having some second thoughts.

I want to know:

What comes with the engine which is completely free, like any content packs or programs?
How long does it take for me to get it? I want it to be done in at most 24 hrs.
Do I get any privileges on the website?
How many copies of TGE do I get?
What will happen if I format my hard drive and I lose TGE? Can I re-download one?


Also is it possible for me to get my money back if I am not happy with it.

P.S I am so far happy with the TGE, since I have been helping my friend with some modeling and a bit of scripting on his one.

PP.S I wanted to get it off of his computer but he said this "If you take it off of my computer not only will you get in trouble but I will get into trouble since I cannot give it out, you must buy it with your own money and put it on your own computer." This is what made me save up to get one, I have like 100 dollars now and I am so close of getting TGE.

1) You get 3 demos which can be used as a base, a small selection of art assets like models, textures, etc.
2) I believe it can take up to 24 hours but I'm not sure.
3) You get access to Torque Developer Network, the private forums, and a few more things I think.
4) 1 per-seat/per-computer.
5) You can re-download it if needed.
6) I believe so. You'll want a response from someone that knows though.

You also get Torque Show-Tool Pro with it. With a license , you can make as many games as you want.
