I was searching for any free game engines or editors i could make a crappy little game from. But not one that makes rpg's or adventure things, im looking for a above shooter or first person shooter. Like doom or wolfenstien.

Ogre3D is the best free engine that I know, at least mowst of my clients uses it, so I think it's the best solution. But don't get to excited, all engines require some coding knowelege (C++, Delphi or so) and also some modeling or/and painting skills (If you want to make original game, You'll have to model characters and map by yourself.) So, the best thing I can suggest you is talk to your friends who are used to or studying programing, those who works or learns to do 3D stuff, and create a team, because even a little "crapy" game will took you forever, if you'll work alone. Believe me, I know that, lol.

Oh, and here is the link: http://www.ogre3d.org/

There are plenty of options with varying levels of coding experience needed. You definitely don't need to know C++ though. A list of interesting 3D game creators is listed here: http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=99818
