Rage

Rockstar Advanced Game Engine is a game engine developed almost entirely by Rockstar Games. It was used in the production of Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto: The Lost & Damned, Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony, and Grand Theft Auto V, and many others dating back to 2006.

Predecessor[edit]

It's predecessor was RenderWare, a more primitive rendering engine used to develop games for the previous generation of consoles. It has since become obsolete and has been abandoned.

Aspects[edit]

• High definition polygon and texture rendering.
• Real life physics; being run over by a car and being tossed like a ragdoll, being ejected from a vehicle from a front end collision, bailing out of a moving vehicle and rolling around like a ragdoll, suffering injuries of all kinds.
• Real lifelike vehicle physics. The player has the feeling of actually controlling a vehicle of a certain weight, unlike the train track like physics felt in previous GTA games.
• Pushing down a pedestrian and watching him or her fall to the ground, sometimes dropping various objects and shouting obscene insults.
• Life like skin and body textures in characters.
• More realistic fire and explosion effects.
