I was wondering what level editor would be best for fantasy levels, with terrain, buildings, and indoor levels. I wanted to know anything under $300US, or combinations of programs I should use. Thanks! Ogatoga

Level editors usualy come with an engine.

Are you making a hobby game or a commercial game? If its hobby you can get an existing game such as the latest Unreal and use the level editing tools to make your game - you just can''t sell it.

If you want to make a commercial game then you need to buy a license for an engine such as the Torque engine (www.garagegames.com) or something similar.

I''m using the A5 engine (www.3dgamestudio.com) for my current project. They''re up to A6 now, and it''s definitely worth checking out.
