   What Engine Would Fit My Needs?
  Hi, what engine would work well for a game that would be 3d, but with 2d sprites (like the original mario kart or wolfenstein 3d).  It needs to be free and preferably available for linux.  Also, I dont want one of those drag and drop game makers, I want something that I can code with.  Language doesnt matter

[lol][google] is your friend, although I see many recommend OGRE or Irrlicht.   ;  irrlicht looks nice, any other suggestions?Also, i didnt know what to google (3d 2d game engine wouldnt work...).Thanks   ;Panda3D -- It is a 3D engine but it has support for billboards, which I think is what you want unless you really want a ray-casting engine. It is designed for Python, but can be used with C++ if necessary.
