Cat Mother has closed, but published its sources under BSD and GPL license. Had anyone tried this 3D engine? It is good or it is another tipical engine?

At least, sources are free in:
http://catmother.sourceforge.net/

there is a downloadable executable, did you have a look at it?

Bufff.... 60Mb downloaded...
There is a 3D game demo, and runs well in my computer. The engine seems good (the game a little less). But later I'll try to read the sources.

non-commercial? ehm... not really, this is one area where the commercial engines shine

i wonder if this is going to be a serious issue with ogre... none of the samples i've seen look very suitable for outdoor scenes
