I recently acquired the Artist's license for the engine, enabling me to do more work on the art pipeline so Ted's time is freed up for the numbers, or whatever it is programmers do.  Today I learned about height maps.  I already knew what they were and how they worked, and the implementation in Torque is fairly simple.  First shot:  mountainous terrain comprised of three image maps.  Second shot is the sun late in the day.  Why do I put this stuff out there?  Because I know you people are hungry for distraction!

So, why are none of the ITS games listed on the GarageGame game listings? http://www.torquepowered.com/games/rpg

Uhh, AoD is. The rest are in non-presentable state from what I understand.

Where? It doesn't appear either under RPG nor under 3D games.

Oscar: No, Frayed Knights is listed, e.g.

His screenshots are taken with the Torque 3D 2009 editor so I'll guess the latter.

I don't think you can buy TGE anymore, same for TGEA for that matter.

Sorry for not paying attention - the screenshots indeed show you are correct.
It's T3D.
