GemRB Game Engine Reviews

Excellent as for free source is complete source (it drives all famiiar behavior of BG2 within). Suspicious of PYTHON (clown cart downloads and point object unix changes): i checked the 45,000 lines of .py they are 100% gameplay-only (stats and window image putting) related i doubt could sustain a virus if one got in. Also there is no networking socks in .c code. -1*: I compiled with these pre-installed: openal-soft-1.24.2 and SDL (1.2, 2.24, 3.2.2). source for "dragon lance editor" is windows only - and only .exe are in the zip. Demo showed warnings in xterm idk - but it played very well in linux. i was forced into building gemrb-0.93 (not newest) i don't remember why - some new ubuntu incompat junk added to 0.94. little documentation as to how to extend or edit levels (rts read the source) on main website not in src dl. there's so little good without a "freaking big problem with depends" on SF idk what gets 5 stars if GemRB doesn't. another nice this as long as you have py lua SDL there is not "games with grabbing .git off internet" to build it. It builds w/o internet access.

I receive this error :( C:\gemrb-win32-196c54e>gemrb.exe [Core]: GemRB Core Version vtags/v0.8.6, , Loading... [Core]: Initializing the Event Manager... [Core]: Starting Plugin Manager...

Great open source game engine to use in small games.

I have installed BG1 BG2 IWD1 AND IWD2 on my laptop. then installed GEMRB onto my kindle fire hd. I then copied all the games over to the GEMRB file. I then run GEMRB but all it can find is the standard 3 things ie BG2 demo. What am I doing wrong?

Very good Software.

Thanks for Gemrb, it's wonderful!

Great game. Thank!

Very cool

Superb project! Thanks to the dev team!

What a great job! Authors of the project are true enthusiasts!

this project is cool without question! Keep up the work on it! Thus, there still needs some work to be done. My experiences so far (v0.6.5). The downloaded Demo of BG works remarkabley well. So I tried to install my files from IWD and IWD2. But, to no avail. Starting the program will show of the Programmbackground and after 2 Seconds fell back to the desktop. I'm using the android port on a Samsung Galaxy Tab (where the demo works great). I tried to use the structure you already used for the demo, copying all the IWD files to that same directory. This leaves me in a situation, where I just had to check CD2 path in the config file, but since it was defaulted there as .\CD2, it was already fine. I changed the Id int he config to IWD2 then, and thats it. In both cases it did not work, always fell back to desktop. If there is anything else to check, please let me know. Otherwise I really hope, that you struggle on with the project. It is woth it and you did fine so far!. One final suggestion, please allow easy switching of the Packages instead letting the user fumble with the gemrb.cfg :).

The future of IE gaming!
