I'm sure this is a dead horse that has been beaten over and over again, but I'm a newbie to this forum and to programming (Like very, very new). I love the WC series games and want to try my hand at programming (on the side as a hobby).
1) So what engines are available? Can you list them all and what games were done with which and where can I find them (Links to them would be HUGELY appreciated)!!!
From what I undertand EA won't release some of the engines? Is this still true?
2) Is there a newer type of engine that can be used like 3D game studio or something like that? Or is everyone staying with the original engines or the ones that are close to keep with the original look and feel?
3) Besides forums, is there documentation on how to use the different engines someone is going to list (i.e. Vega Strike, FC (Force Commader???)?
4) How hard will it be for a newbie to catch on to the engines?
