Anyone know a 100% FREE RPG game designer that can run with a PowerPC Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger? I've looked all over and nothing can even come close to what I want that's free. I want something that can be a good challenge to World of Warcraft.

Is this a joke?

Why... would it be?

1. Good luck finding any software of any type that will run on PowerPC. Apple's current development tools don't even have PowerPC support anymore, and there's no way to build for PPC at all without hacking the dev tools and copying over the compilers from an earlier version.

2. Building for 10.4.x is, likewise, no longer supported by Apple, although it's not nearly as much of a PITA as PowerPC is.

3. I'm not much into the gaming scene these days, but I know enough to know that World of Warcraft is a huge game made by a huge company that probably spent millions developing it. And you want an app that would make something like that for free? And with those crazy hardware/software requirements to boot?

Don't hold your breath.

I remember a game developer laughing at these requests. Apparently there are alot of these requests for the iOS. Where some Joe Blow wants a piece of software or code to do a certain task for an app he's developing. Why should anyonne give you code for free that they worked on and sold.

You have to realize, companies like EPIC, id, etc... SELL software to make games. They don't give it away.

The best way you could do this is to make a mod for a current game to do this. I saw a mod for, I think it was one of the Call of Duties, that turned it into a Star Wars game. But even that is months(a year?) worth of work. And alot of hard skinning/texture work at that.
