Simple Open Source 3D Game Engines?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the fun-for-personal-projects dept.

Zenitram asks: "I'm trying to find a good open source/free, 3D first/third-person game engines. I can write basic scripts and make basic programs in various programming languages, but when it comes to making 3D worlds I do not have the skill set. Most of the Open Source programs I've found are not for beginners. I've found some pretty good commercial programs, however the game I am making has no chance of ever making a profit. As such I don't really want to invest money on a personal project. Any advice?"

    Caveman: "I'm hungry. I want to hunt for some small rodents. I'm not very fast or strong and I really would like some food now. Know where I can find where some hide?"

    Cavedot: "Oh, you don't want to do that. What you reall want to do is catch a wooly mammoth, you'll appreciate the meat so much more, and you'll learn how to take down an 8 ton beast in the process.. what could be cooler than that? What you should do is go over there and lift those rocks until you get strong enough, then go find a large branch and make a set of spears yourself, then go roam the tundra for 20 days until you see a mammoth. It's easy."
