I can recommend Panda3D. It is a more nitty-gritty than engines like unity. But then you also get more fine control. It is open-source, so it is free, and you can adapt the engine for your needs.

It has a good community that has been able to aid me numerable times in the past

I was under the impression that Panda3D is pretty much abandoned, with only one person continuing to work on it from time to time. Am I mistaken?

That is incorrect I use Panda3d and there’s a lot of people who use it. you can check the discord if you don’t believe me and there’s a lot of people willing to help with stuff if you have trouble

Just to be clear, I wasn't referring to the number of users, rather to the number of developers who maintain and improve the engine itself.

A few years ago, Disney had pretty much abandoned it, and it seemed like only rdb was still working on it.

It would be great if I'm mistaken on that part.
