Confused with engines

[RJK_]

Hello guys,

I recently got confused with the following circumstance:

The Game Infernal uses AGEIA techniques (i was guessing thats the game engine).
A few other games use this like Mass Effect, Gothic 3. But Mass Effect is using Unreal 3 engine and Gothic 3 definately not, wiki says Gothic 3 is using “AGEIA”.

Infernal using AGEIA too.

VorpX has Mass Effect, Gothic 3 supported, but trying these profiles (among others) didnt provide G3D. (only very distorted).

Now i am quite confused if AGEIA is a game engine at all and (if i would just hold that “power to the people” tool in my hands) what Gothic 3 has to do with Mass Effect.

And, what game engine if not AGEIA has Gothic 3 ?

can anyone help ?

AGEIA is PhysX. Didn’t you google AGEIA ?

Yes is did, but somehow i came to the conclusion Ageia was a software instead of a company. So we better forget about this posting ;-)

Though i still wonder what engine Gothic 3 is running with.

The Gothic developers use their own in-house engine. Not sure whether there is a name for it.
