Does anyone know of a good game engine/development kit?

Probably one of the best ones out there is RPG Maker XP. It costs about $90.00 US but you can find versions around the web.

Fortunately you have TONS of options.  Unfortunately you have TONS of options.\n\nIf you're looking to do professional game development, learn C/C++, OpenGL, and DirectX.  There are hundreds of websites dedicated to game development that can help get you started, but my recommendation is to start with a good book that takes you through the steps with a sample game.  Most bookstores have entire sections dedicated to game development.\n\nIf you're not concenred about "professional" development and just want to try making some games quickly and easily, there are several good pre-fab tools to do so including:\n\nJamagic and Multimedia Fusion (http://www.clickteam.com),\nDarkBasic (http://www.thegamecreators.com),\nBlitzBasic (http://www.blitzbasic.com),\nTorque (http://www.garagegames.com)\n\nAll of these have an associated cost to license the software, but provide engines that handle all of the rendering, sound, and environmental complexities for you.  For the most part, you simply come up with an idea, piece it together, and add some script logic.  They're also a good springboard into more advanced topics since you get a feel for what it takes to work within a game development framework which is what most modern games are developed around.\n\nGood luck!

I used to work on something like this. If the hardware has GPIB support, i suggest you to use borland C++ builder. It has cool interface and easy to work.

Try Bloodshed Software's version of C/C++ instead.  It's free just like Turbo C from Borland.\n\nhttp://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html

Isn't it SDRadiant that you're supposed to use for W:ET? (GTKRadiant will kinda work if you try hard enough, but I think SD is a fork that's specific to Wolfenstein.)

You'll probably find the source link useful.  It's a web app that will test your system configuration against the requirements for various games.

Well first of all, lets get out there that any really really good game maker is going to cost. They are game engines and take a lot of programming to make. \n\nOk, but for free there is one really good game maker that is more of a shareware that you can try for awhile and is like 30 dollars to get the pro version. It makes games much like Knight Online and Secondlife type of style.\n\nIt is called realm crafter and it even has a built in particle engine for special effects and everything. I have included a link to its download page and if you like it, you can eventually buy it. It is pretty cheap for a half decent game creator.\n\nSecondly, I have added links to screenshots of games that it has made using this tool.\n\nLastly, the other answerer is right with saying to learn C++ because that is the staple of real game development. If you are serious about breaking into that market, they will expect you to know C++ like the back of your hand.\n\nHope these links are what you needed! Enjoy!
