Question: AC3D is also for making RTS wargames?
Hi there folks.
I know it sounds like a stupid question but is AC3D suite-able to use as software engine of a RTS wargame? Thank you for your answers. |

AC3D is not a gaming engine. It is a 3D modelling program. You can use it to make *content* for an RTS (with the limitation that AC3D does not currently provide native animation support - you have to get creative or use an external animation program).
Hope this clarifies things. Enjoy, -- Jeff |

If you want to make a game you could use OpenGL.

Yeah, but it isn't quite as user friendly a language.
