Dark0ne's Suggestion: Read through the forum and make sure you understand the situation before posting...means you can make more informed decisions and people won't have to cut you some slack because there'll be nothing pushing on the slack in the first place. Once you've done this, come back and edit your post as it isn't even relevent anymore.

With Daerk’s step-down, likewise, we have felt that it is prudent to close down the proposed forums for MeGame for the S.T.A.L.K.E.R engine. Should the project proceed beyond initial stages of planning, then we can all be certain it will be announced in the specialist gaming press, and with its own dedicated website. For now, however, the members of the MeMod teams have felt that its presence on the MeMod forums is misleading and distracting to our own goal, that of a Mod for the Morrowind community.

This thread is irrelevant to the MeMod's production.

Even if that was not the case, no, STALKER does not use the HL2 engine, it uses the XRay engine (which, from what I have seen, is a far more versatile and all round better engine) and, whilst details on MEGame were scarce, if anything, it would be at least the same size as MEMod, if not substantially bigger.

As for your comment:

the devs have already stated that MEGame would only be made once MEMod was completed and only if MEMod was successful.

1. You're a "lazy bugger". Try to learn about what you talk about before you speak.
2. The MEGame would have used the X-Ray engine, which is way better than the HL-2 engine. Saying that STALKER runs on Source is a crime.
3. Daerk was spearheading the MEGame. He's gone now. Daerk + Lots of money/time = MEGame. No Daerk = No money/No MEGame. No money = No MEGame.

yep
..but note that not means by any way that modders cant extend it without braking the law...(or at least i hope they will release modding tools after releasing the game)..but lets just forget this all until memod is done or atleast we got stalker and the tools in our hands..

Alright you uselss fanboys.

Enough dismissing the Source engine as a bad engine. X-ray and Source are both extremely flexible engines.

The X-ray engine can be used to create vast landscapes. The Source engine, however, can be used to create puzzle games, sidescrolling fighters and can mock numerous other genres.

Do your research, kids. Just because MEgame will use the X-ray engine, doesn't mean it's the end all, beat all engine. In 2 years, another engine will be made that's three times what X-ray is/will be.

Since less than 1/12th of you have played Halflife2, shut the hell up.

~Valdir, not quite banned and going for the gold

I didn't say that Source was a bad engine. I said that X-RAy was a way better engine, but I might have overspoken. Remember, I'm totally behind you on Half Life 2, Valdir.
