I would look at Unity. I think that the best bet in the long run for doing gaming in QC would be to add in an actual "Game Kit" so to speak, or some kind of system/other editor to design levels, and then playback in normal QC, with some kind of ability to control aspects of the game. In some ways the OpenEMU for QC project was a good display of being able to load a game, and then "do" certain QC things to it.
It would be great to see something like Unity able to be manipulated with QC, to allow for more interactive control, and interesting control of rendering. -George Toledo On Fri, Apr 2, 2010 at 11:56 AM, Letty Logan <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm sorry guys, I'm new on this and I want to develop games and I need some > advice from a good soul on what application I should use.
