good for you cowabanga , and i dont blame you , you have com or pro i think right? Yes, i have Commercial. you already have the features i crave and cannot afford with gs right now , i have a6 standard and free lite c . so unity will blow my versions of gs out of the water Yes, and besides, I'm already making a project, so i'm not gonna change the engine right now. but like i said im just gonna move the acknex pot to the back burner , not take it off the stove Hey, nice saying

Hell,
they want with full force that everyone use their UNITY -thing.
I hate this monopol building like Microsoft or Google did.
And buying the "PRO" version to get the RenderToTexture feature is like Gamestudio in the year 2003.
Further only Version 1.1 of the dotnet framework is supported until now. And if I want to use C# there are restrictions (dont use namespaces , dont use constructors).
So better wait till Unity is grown up a bit more.
I'm satisfied what my A7 "com" can do , but will keep an eye on Unity.

hm I still have a6 extra and lite-c free, I think I will try it out. For me the main reason for using a product is not wheter they are building a monopol position thanks to erveryone which uses their products but for me the main reson is if a product is good. And Unity is definitively really good. I didn't buy a7 because nowadays competitors have for the same money the same and often more good features too. and I think twice before giving my money out(due the global financial situation and first my situation comes then the one of companys sincerly), I see what it gives for it, and compare with others. And the respect apart that I have for acknex, there are a lot of things which makes me wanna work with unity right now that it turned free. hope that conitec adds more fetaures for a7 extra (i dont say that they have to do it with the lite-c free edition) so guys like me, would spent the money for the extra. It's still better for the company if they go more for the users money, than bringing the user to use another engine for free with the same or easier workflow. I mean you can see It as a monopoly building thing, but I think they just react to the global financial situation. Big Names also turn theri games sooner than a few years ago into a budget game after some months, engine developers can only make the price lower or add more fetaures to their engines...It's hard to add ne features but nowadays hobbyist programmer, think twice before giving out money, because they knew they will probably never have a game been published...so if they spent money than only if they get a lot for it. but I will use untiy only like i did with a6 just for playing around as a hobby, but sincerly I see more potencial for untiy. and acknex remains my favorite one for prototyping. this said by not a professional one, but just a wanna be gamedeveloper maybe the goal customers of conitec... but acknex still rocks and I would not turn back if it would not be this way hehe

there is only one reason why i might switch to unity sooner or later and thats rather simple, LEVEL LIGHTING, blocks are so out of date and the radiosity takes decades to generate, i went to bed leaving ma pc on, radiosity on minimum setting and when i woke up, about 62% wat tha!! come on, i love everything else about GS, but damn man, its like they dont expect us to make more than a room size demo, or to use some external app... so, i may be visiting unity to see if they do better level lights

oh, then might as well use gile[s] with gamestudio, when as far as i am in my project, i cant just switch engines thanks for the reply, blenders interface is like a retarded monkey speaking spanish to me while i'm in a crowd of shouting ppl [you get the idea] [edit] where can i find the gile[s] site? the one i found is on "thegamecreators.com" and thats nowhere near free [edit] found it: http://www.frecle.net/index.php?show=§ion=giles&sub=downloadits not taking over really but ya, its competition, lol, i can only imagine what torque will do in response.. some weeks ago torque seemed to be taking over, now its unity, GAMESTUDIO its YOUR time to SHINE... dont let darkbasic be the next one -bawls-
