I would love to see this engine go open source, community could expand it. I have seen so many projects thrive while going open source. The engine is "undead" as I read from another user, it would be great to boost some life back into this thing.
I am bouncing between GS3D, Godot, and Shiva3D. I prefer coding in GS3D, but see no point in starting a project that I will be at for years to have a ancient engine to finish it on. The experienced gained would be priceless of course. Although the experience could be gained in something else and still be applied in something current.
I know, I know use something else then. I am not insulting the engine, I quite enjoy it. I have been following GS3D for a few years now and am wondering why not either a) Actively develop it b) Open source it so it can live forever.
I am afraid if it takes too long, anyone who cares will be gone and if/when it gets open sourced or developed no one will give a hoot.
Maybe this should have been under Rants...? It is applicable to the future of the dieing engine.

Yeah let's kick start this!! Do not kickstart a product 'all but abandoned' by it's developers. I see you are new and haven't dealt with the apathy for the dev's, we have over these last few years. There are amazing start-up engine and great established engine your kickstart could help. LBGUI became the reason for the dev's to cancel the GUI expansion GED another third-party's work. Dev's probably won't pay for Savin's map editor would it be our new GED. <-- Pure assumption! C# wrapper <- Us! New physic <- Us! New GUI <- Us! Lite-C functions and explanations <- Us Multiplayer tutorial <- One of Us and Georges kind pocket More and more <- US 2 or 3 years of a update with bug fixes <- Dev's My request for force joystick check 2 years+ to be added <- Dev's and on and on Mal
