Don't think a want to start a mess. Was just wondering what made you choose UE vs Cryengine? I've been reading  professionnal forum and cryengine appears to be better when it comes to graphics. Also i remenber having used Crysis sdk with ease, including  the visual way of making scripts.

i dont like visual scripts. I prefer the c++ power,

i honestly didnt look into cryengine too much. I know UE4 is c++, open and has a lot of docs and support.

Cryengine was in trouble not too long ago.

Is cryengine free too?

LeBabouin {sfx}

nope. something about 10 a month but no fees when you make money > $3000, which is gonna happen when sfx become a dev studio hehe

I personally don't like Cry Engine, and I have seen on some forums that you can't 'customize' assets like in UE4, all you have is the base Crysis weapons I think.

Not sure if any of you have seen that Amazon now have a game development team and have released an engine (based on CryEngine) to rival UE4, Unity, etc..

What cryengine should of been. .

C++, LUA, blueprint, cross platform with Double Helix networking code...and mostly free unless u want to use a web service...but being open source i imagine someone will soon and quickly add  equivalent.  Also its docs are poor and its not far off cryengine which is quite difficult to use.

Tho cryengine for free? yes please...

but.....with this cryengine probably will be free soon too...

-cannot find any api docs?

Game-ready AI out of the box (with stealth!)

Amazon Lumberyard, I never heard of it, it seems to be an amazing engine. Any difference from it to UE? Is it C++ compatible, Multiplayer ready, etc....

From what im reading its C++ OS, with very little api as they focus on visual scripts and LUA but it will come..
It is cryengine modified.

Net code is very very good, it can only be used with your own net server or game lift (very good) and amazon aws (very good) but those cost money.,...network costs money...but the engine is of course cryengine


downsides, it does not support FBX, but only have exportes for meya and 2ds max...????
