Post Topic: CryENGINE3 SDK hits 100,000 downloads in only five days  Posted 22.08.2011, 20:35 |
Frankfurt (Germany), August 22, 2011 – Crytek GmbH (“Crytek”) is excited to announce first download numbers for its recently released SDK. The free version of CryENGINE®3 hit 100.000 downloads within the first five days after its release on August 17th. In line with GDC Europe and Gamescom last week, the independent developer had announced the release of a CryENGINE®3 free of charge for non-commercial use. The award winning SDK provides the complete game engine to create AAA quality next generation games for PC, and includes the CryENGINE®3 Sandbox™ level editor, a production-proven, 3rd generation “What you see is what you play” (WYSIWYP) - tool designed by and for professional developers. Crytek also offers a royalty-only license model for developers who are interested in using the SDK for commercial gaming. In this case, Crytek require only 20% of the developer’s revenues from the commercial launch of their game. The free toolset is available for download at crydev.net, the former crymod.com community portal that offers documentation written by the developers of the engine, a thriving community and a supplementary knowledge base for CryENGINE 3. For more information visit http://www.crydev.net and http://www.mycryengine.com--- Nice going everyone!  Hope you're enjoying the Free SDK and can't wait to see what you guys can do with the engine! 
  No dev/modding PM's please, use the forums! :)

Why release an older build ...Well I hope they update it soon then...  I get 15-30 FPS MORE in Crysis 2's SDK on "Ultra" compared to CE3's "High" (even 2 settings lower)  I won't even get into my other complaints in comparison but hey the "Vehicle Editor" is back lol!

Quote by Ash712: Why release an older build In order to be able to implement new (DX11) features properly instead of a quick patch-in that doesn't really perform that well.  Don't worry, the missing features will be added in future updates, as well as bugfixes to many bugs that infest the current release - in the meantime you can get started with your game development if you wish; you don't need fancy DX11 rendering to implement core features after all. Congratulations to Crytek, I hope the package will be updated frequently as promised!
