Surely it's not dead already??

Of course....there's not been much of any updates lately....might explain WarrenM's snicker. :) Guess Ant has a history with 3d engines.

Ant hasn't been seen since Sunday. As for the site, works fine.

OK, works now. must have been out for the day.

Aurora is dead?

It went opensource

Yes but where?

It went opensource, then whoever was hosting it got hassle from Ants Ex-customers, and now it doesnt exist. (Well it exists, but I dont think its hosted anywhere, might be wrong tho)

This could be useful as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Blender

...and it supports rigid body dynamics...
...and it's Open Source...
...and it can be extended via Python scripting...

This seems not too shabby as well: http://www.garagegames.com/products/1 (Torque Engine)

..although it doesn't, as yet, do dynamics etc.

I dont know about the shader version but I found torque to be rather poor... with colour bleeding on interiors and difficult to use tools

I wonder if those particular ex-customers will still mind if it is released as free open source software...

Could be a good exercise in setting up a wiki.

I'm sure they've noticed the error in their ways by now!

i dont see why they would care that it go opensource? Development for it stopped so wtf.
