   Hello, Question about Game Engine Source Code
  So, i have been looking around and found that it cost more to get a game engine with source code. I understand that u can do more if you have the source code, but i thought u could already do a lot with the game engine. Could someone give me an clear and detailed example of why having the game source code is better? Thank You, ComboShotO   
  Can't say for sure... but I'm guessing with the source code you could edit it to your liking and then recompile.   ;  It lets you edit the engine.Say the engine implements one kind of shadow mapping, but for your game you want a different kind. Or say the engine only supports DDS textures and you want to use PNG. Or the engine's networking code was designed for an FPS game but you're making an RTS. etc...   ;  Its also a lot easier to debug if you got the actual source.
