__MOGRE (Managed OGRE)__ is an advanced .NET ((-wrapper|wrapper)) for OGRE, [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mogre|hosted on sourceforge]. The "glue" code between C++ and .NET is developed using C++/CLI, which offers great flexibility and low-level control of how the wrapping should work.

MOGRE goes beyond a plain wrapper: The OGRE classes are integrated into the .NET framework seamlessly (see ((OGRE-MOGRE interconnection))).

!!Add-ons for MOGRE
''Addons or plugins are libraries that add new features to target platform, in this case MOGRE, an addon can add support for -GUI widgets, Physics simulations, terrain, AI,networking, special effects, etc,etc. With the right set of addons you can easily build a toolset or even a full GameEngine. But remember a GameEngine needs to be a consistent and integrated library with a custom framework.''
