Questions about Esenthel 2.0 (Alpha)
Dear Esenthel, I have questions about your 2.0 Alpha version.
What are the main differences between the 1.0 free version that we can get now, and the 2.0 version.

I need to know if it's worth the 99 dollars to achieve what i want and need for the game I am trying to make.

Are their any new features added to the World Editor or the Mesh Editor?

Also If i do buy the 2.0, is there an update file that i can click to get current updates?

And i want to throw this question in as well. How soon will it take for you to create a way to make volocities of water changable?

RE: Questions about Esenthel 2.0 (Alpha)
I have some questions about this as well.

Is this new 2.0 going to come with a new API/SDK or will it be using the same stuff the current version uses?

Is there any hope for C# support?

Will be more (better) documentation for working with Esenthel's API offered with this new version?

Also, will we have a way to demo this or are there any plans to offer a free version of 2.0 like there is for 1.0?

I can't imagine spending 99 bucks for it without being able to try it out and see how much it really does for me.

hi, please check this link - http://www.esenthel.com/?id=editions
Quote:Esenthel Engine 2.0 uses exactly the same internals as version 1.0 - you will be able to keep your game codes, and use the same engine headers and functions.
the .h and .lib is the same, the main difference is new Editor and Licensing.

No any other new functions which are not mentioned in the page/video (no C#)

I will make many video tutorials about it once 2.0 is finished.

There may be a demo once 2.0 is finished.

RE: Questions about Esenthel 2.0 (Alpha)
I'm glad to hear that there is going to be video tutorials about the 2.0.
you say the Licencing is different. what is different about the licencing?
I was planning on buying the 99 dollar indie Licence along with 2.0.
do i need to buy a different licence to use and sell my indie game with the 2.0 engine?
Sorry for so many questions, but i need to know these things before i buy into this engine.
I'm sorry, but on the Licencing; I'm not sure what Per-Seat means.
does that mean if i have a one man team i buy the 99 dollars. if there is two people, two licences are bought, and so on? is that correct?

Yes, that is correct. One license per team member. The Esenthel 1.0 licensing is one license per project.
