Torque 3D $99
Torque 3D $99
In case you haven't heard... GarageGames is back and they have dropped the full-source price for Torque3D (and all their engines it looks like) to $99
Sucks that I paid so much for it last year... but I guess it's good news for others that want to get the engine

Re: Torque 3D $99
$99? Wasn't it $1000 before this, or did I miss a couple of price drops? Does this have to do with TorquePowered going out of business/seeking a buyer?

Re: Torque 3D $99
Yeah, it was $995 before. I got it for $495 as a previous torque owner and beta tester, but $99 is unheard of for a program of this magnitude.

Ahhh, they are reviving the name "Garage Games" and going back to the model of low-cost engines for hobbyists. Maybe someone else already bought them?

Reading that blog, it looks like they are returning to their roots. About time, I say

Re: Torque 3D $99
i agree! I do hate that so many had to pay the high price but I guess they are ahead of the game some being they have owned it for a while. I have source version but haven't really dug into it much. I want to, just hate Torquescript .
Torque really has some amazing graphics and the network is better than most realize.
They have been bought out by an investment company so i think we will see allot more, "lets do things that will sell" options.

Re: Torque 3D $99
Thank God. While I have no investment in Torque and likely never will, it is good to see them actually taking on Unity head-to-head, instead of pretending they are in a different tier than Unity (and we saw how well that worked for them). It will end up being better for the users of both products in the long-run.hallsofvallhalla wrote: They have been bought out by an investment company so i think we will see allot more, "lets do things that will sell" options.
