CryEngine wasn't intended by the developers to be just for video games, it can be used for films and architectural visualization as well.

kys desu
even if you dont pay royalties what proof have they that you used their engine?
>>54720016
Go to >>>/out/ retard!
>>54720130
Their are dedicated companies that check for this.
For example, let's say the developers know of flaws that the engine has. All that have to do is test your game, and if those same exact flaws are found in your game, then it's pretty fucking obvious you used their engine.
They can also decompile it and get a general idea.
>>54719966

in any case stealing code is bad and you'll get caught
>>54719997
This is the perfect opportunity to get people working on this mess and maybe be able to port the engine and retroactively the games that run on it to linux (if they don't have other stupid platform dependencies and the devs comply)
holy shit, Crysis source port fucking when?

Having better rendering capabilities doesn't make the engine better.
Overwatch looks like TF2, yet it's probably the most popular game out right now.
Indie devs especially don't care about that.
It only matters if you have a big enough team to make use of it, aka AAA devs.

"Good game" is subjective.
I think Life Is Strange is a good game, but some others may disagree.
Hopefully it will pressure Unity to release source.

No wonder crytek going down.
The reason for the "games" definition is because you have to negotiate enterprise royalty terms for non-gaming applications and are subject to a different usage agreement.

Ask a lawyer. Also, depends on what country you're in.
I think in the U.S.A., you have to develop the replacement software without having every looked at the original code or something absurd like that.
In Europe the laws are much saner.

I have a question,

>>54724129
This has been possible for years.
Some of the functions that span hundreds of lines look terrifying but I think you need someone who is expert on game engines to judge whether it is warranted or not. It stands out so much there must be a reason behind it other than "yeah it's shit but we don't care".
Btw not even cryengine use c++ streams, they really are universally hated.

Are all game engines assumed to be written in C++?
>>54728086
I would guess C# or C++
>>54728086
No, not "all", but many do.
Unity uses C#
>>54728086
C++, C (maybe), C#, JS, Java, Lua, and Python are like the 99%. They usually mix and match to feel special
>>54728184
>JS, Java, Lua, and Python
are not used for writing game engines
they are used for scripting the behavior engines written in a more "difficult" compiled language, so skiddies can make games without learning memory management.
The exceptions are shit like PyGame (which is useful only for education), tools for creating visual novels (which are not game engines), and asm.js (only one small part of a game engine)
>>54728184
So you could write an engine in c++ maybe some C and c# if you felt like dealing with microshit? Isnt c# proprietary and cost?

its such a shame for crytek.
it means something bad is going down.
i always thought the cryengine was one of the most advanced engines out there in terms of optimization and features.
too bad they shot themselves in the foot by making it so expensive to use.
granted they changed that some time ago but bad sales of ryse and a change in policy way too late probably doomed the company.

>>54731341
il2cpp
You write C#, it translates to C++
>>54728348
c++ for any memory and pointer magic.
c# for the rest, scripting with what ever. I wouldn't want to use c as the core engine language, c++ is a pain in the ass enough.
Mostly comes down to just how much 'manual' memory management you want to do. Could just use C# or some other language that hides and does the memory/pointer stuff for you.
They are banning science, architecture and simulations?
This engine could have been huge in exactly these fields and they are cutting them off.
wow there must be some serious autism going through their management.
Any explanation for this?
>>54734053
no explanation, just crytek being assholes. they also don't allow porn.
>>54734064
>banning porn
well guess they can live without 90% of their profit then.
With decent camera/movie-capabilities a lot of those SFM-porn makers could have migrated. Now they'll migrate to UE4 instead und cryengine will just die out.
>>54722831
I can look into the code, so it is open source by definition.
It isn't free software though by Stallman's definition.

What is a good and simple engine in C and in C++ to learn from (meaning, coding style and organisation)? This obviously not, the code looks horrendous.
>>54734053
They allow it for education and recognized scientific institutions. They don't want any liability because some shortcut/optimization of the code leads to bad results.
>>54738400
OpenXRay may be drunken slav engineering, but it's at least put into modules that aren't half bad.

Dead in the water. Pepsiman is making noise about a new cossacks, but I doubt the company will survive to release. It was /supposed/ to be an "official leak" of the CoP source, in exchange for work with Dezowave (The GSC devs would help, and would allow Dezowave to release the CoP code after completion), but some jackass decided to leak a copy of the collab work as "april fools". Lost alpha became the trash we have today, since the contract said leaks = everything from GSC goes poof. They threw out the CoP code to the public as an apology.

They're trying to legally prevent you from using the code they release for anything other than game development. I'm not sure why they chose the term "serious games" to describe "things which you can play but are not really a game", but realistically if they tried to slap you with a C&D they'd be more interested in settling and getting you to license the engine than actually having you face charges.
It doesn't have anything to do with the "seriousness" of the games produced.
