Game lib? Sfml, Ogre, panda3d??

sfml
This one is a 2d c++ media lib for images sound ect..

Has anyone made anything using sflm and c++?

There are some games made with it by people,

Panda3d
Has anyone made anything using this one?

They used it to make some games in the pro industry,

It overall appears to just be like ogre.

Has anyone ever used this to make anything?
It seems like it makes doing simple 3d app creation easy. You can only do what a python program would be able to
do overall, but since the 3d rendering is still just the c++ ogre base you can do quite a bit without it getting lag.

I've used SFML but found it a bit too low-level for my liking. Not much is done for you (which can be good or bad). Didn't make anything worthwhile mind.

I'm sure we have an Ogre user here but I can't for the life of me think who.
 
Many years ago I started getting into Ogre. Then I decided I would rather get a more fully featured engine and pay the licensing fees; it would be faster and cheaper than adding the features to Ogre. I'm a UDKer myself, and when my current project is finished, I'll probably pick up UE4.
