They moved rage release date. Think that will delay doom 3's engine release?
Is the game code mostly script?

They will probably release the engine code a few months after the release of Rage.

are there any licensees left? Seems with past engines they waited until the licensees had all shipped their titles...

There is Human Head Studios for the upcoming Prey 2 but it's probably so heavily modified it's unrecognisable.

We should send an email or something to Carmack or ID, asking for the source. RAGE is the biggest release in the year? Hell no, Doom 3 source is :DDDD

Calm down RAGE was only just released if we don't have a release by mid January that's when I'll start to freak out.

Carmack tweeted a few weeks ago that it's basically up to the lawyers at this point.
Maybe this Christmas perhaps?

probably because of creatives involvement in carmacks reverse or the havoc physics.
I dont think there going to start a war over havoc (to many good free physics libraries today) but creatives involvement im not so sure about
just have to hang tight and cross fingers.

But the implementation of the havoc physics engine is just a slew of library calls, right? There's not the source to that library, just how Doom3 uses it.
same thing wih the *cough* valve source circa 2003...

I wonder what will happen to the audio part. They use eax 4 (creative).

What? There's no havok in Doom3
id Tech 4 games handle audio using OpenAL
The big problem is the shadow patent held by patent troll Creative.
