Yes, i just had an idea that may get people moving.
If any of you have heard of the game Sauerbraten, be sure to check it out! http://sauerbraten.org/
This engine is totally open source and totally customizable and awesome gameplay. I suggest we look for new frontiers with this new game engine!

What about Marswars? We already created it... It is a upgrade of RF as a mod for the UT2004 engine; UE2.5... |

Wow fast download.. 16KB/s will take 2 hours to download.
Thanks for the link Slitzerfest, I didn't know Sauerbraten (why is it called like food? LOL) before!! Looks like an intersting thing!
and yes..we have Mars Wars. Do you really think you can make Red Faction using a bare engine? Nothing is harder than this. |

I tried Sauerbraten's demo last year and I thought it was pretty hot.
The developers of this engine have done a great job with pixel shading FX (water and HDR); it looks really nice 
Here's a screenie I took:

REDFROG - This engine will (or should) work well to modify. All editing is done in-game and real-time. Stunning maps is awesome.

u serious? so a group of mappers could make a map
play the map
find flaws or sucky bits
AND THEN CHANGE THEM ON THE FLY?
wow thats realy cool and u will all have the map
what about custom textures though
does this engine support auto download?
i've actualy been playing the single player bit and accidently found the E "edit key", it spawned a heap of dudes and they killed me, i think it looks alot like quake 2 with fancy lighting and shaders
wish we could port GEOMOD to a modified Q3 engine, Q3E is so versatile
oh yay QUAKEFACTION 3 ARENA if u can blow parkers head off im all for it, he looks like george clooney |
oh no, i think i just forgot something verry important |

The engine is okay.
Most levels have very simple geometry and some objects for detail.
For Red Faction there would not be much improvement possible.
It's not possible to beat MW with that engine (doh UT2004's engine is just great)
But the game itself is fun - not only because I'm always placed first The game has some original ideas like the menus and the whole gameplay system. |

If there's any engine that we should migrate RF to it'd be Unreal Engine 3. Having all the source code for Mars Wars is a bonus, and will make the conversion much easier. Besides, you can't beat the latest commercial UT engine, now can you? |

Quoting evilhomer | hey hey hey! this engine rocks 
but would it be able to have geo-mod? |
Im not too sure about geo-mod, but if we got our hands on the rf source code, then yeah there would be geo-mod.
And Assman......
This engine is free, unlike unreal engine.
Just a heads up. |

it seems like the sauerkraut sauerbraten engine is geomodable. Since you can edit the maps in realtime with your friends online.
However I don't know if its possible to have sphere like holes or just blocky ones.
I couldnt figure out how to use the edit mode in the Coop gametype. I was only able to substract some boxes from the level. 
It would too much time to figure out how the engine works anyway.
edit. omg did I say sauerkraut? Thats something to eat, too! LOL I corrected it |

Example
...
.....
...
now being that i know nothing about the CUBE engine except that it's free and traies to creat a relistic world using Cubes, ihave absolutly no idea if this is possable. |

Yeah I tested engine and it seemed just another quake clone, which are more than enough on markets.
Anyhow engine looks pretty like almost every engine nowdays, however quickly viewed it DID NOT have any cutting edge feature that would rise it from grey masses...
So I will be staying with RF and I see can I get any answers on ASM'07 Winter. |

Well i suppose u could say that, besides the fact its totally customizable and a sustainable engine that is free, and could be creaed into a new RF, say someone created a mod for it.
In this game, vehicles in multiplayer are more than possible.
