RE: [GD-General] Prices of well-known 3D engines

[Gareth L. <GL...@cl...>]

Because free engines don't include support, wont make changes to suit you
and your time schedule, and in general (I haven't used crystal space, so I'm
not giving an opinion on it at all!) they are not as good as high quality
commercial ones.

I specifically said Read:"Very good". Buying an engine which isn't a good
one will probably end up costing you more than writing one yourself.
