'''[[File:GAE_Icon.png]]G'''lest '''A'''dvanced '''E'''ngine ('''GAE''') is an advanced mod involving the modification of the Glest engine. At this time, tentative plans still exist to integrate GAE back into Glest once it has achieved a portion of it's goals, has integrated all latest Glest features (such as lua scripting) and has stabilized. GAE may be downloaded [http://sourceforge.net/projects/glestae/files here].

Developer Tips (not really sure where this would go):
*Put the dependencies folder at the same level as the branch folder, then multiple branches can be used with the same dependencies
*When you have checked out the branch, compile it before working on it (all branches should be compilable)
*Make the debug working directory the same as your Glest data directory so you can easily start the debugger in Visual Studio.

=GAE-based mods=
* [[Four path magitech]]: A faction mod extending upon the existing magitech. ''Since as of August 5, 2010, FPM is incomplete.''
* [[Military]]: A fully built mod exclusive for GAE with many GAE features such as Patrolling, Guarding, tracking projectiles, and emanations. It was the first created complete mod for GAE.

-'''G'''lest '''A'''dvanced '''E'''ngine ('''GAE''') is a fork/modification of the '''R'''eal '''T'''ime '''S'''trategy ('''RTS''') game [[Glest]]. GAE may be downloaded [http://sourceforge.net/projects/glestae/files here].
-==History==
-GAE was originally started by [http://glest.org/glest_board/index.php?action=profile;u=4709 Daniel.Santos], as a desire to create a special engine for the then-work-in-progress, [[Four Path Magitech]], and started with offering auto returning units and other small enhancements, growing to eventually try to accompany the four path magitech. When four path magitech was abandoned, it was later picked up as an alternative way to play glest, and now is an engine with its own unique mods which work specifically on GAE (namely, [[Military]] and [[Malevolent Rising]]). To date, it is still actively developed by the GAE team, who's current active members include Silnarm, Hailstone, and Yggdrasil.

-* [[Malevolent Rising]]: An RTS Game that is using GAE purely as an engine. Being recreated from scratch for a University Project.
-* [[Constellus]]: A sci-fi mod with two factions: the Crincillin Remnant and the Phorin Tribes. Currently a WIP project.
-* [[Project Green]]: A mod that aims to make GAE more like a real-time tactics game. It utilizes GAE's PhysFS capabilities for a smaller download size, as well as emanations and multi-production. WIP.
-* [[Japanese]]: While the Japanese mod was not produced with GAE in mind, a small secondary mod file allows it to run on GAE and also adds the GAE Patrol and Guard commands to armed units.
