What Shall I do? o3o
« on: March 17, 2012, 07:37:04 pm »
Well, I sort of want to make a game, but I can't code/texture/pay/etc. So should I just make a big, prettiful map-pack with in-map mods and admins or something? Maybe I could add items that go with the map-pack to make it a little more game-ish?

Feedback and ideas are appreciated! :D

Learn to program. That is what you should do if you want to make a game.

Are we talking OGRE games?
OGRE is fairly easy.
You just need to learn either:
Visual C++ and Code::Blocks on Windows
Or gcc 3+ on Linux / Mac OSX (using XCode)
But once you make the source code and such of said game, I could help you with any texturing/particles/materials/meshes/etc xDD
I don't do actual heavy coding.
Like, I barely know basic HTML xD

Um...*stares at the 4th and 5th line, not knowing what ANY of that is* XD yeah, I'm still learning to mesh, so if I DID make a game, I'd need help with that department.

Well you're certainly not going to be able to make a game with that attitude.  :|

Yeah, most likely I'll just head into the film department, rather than games. I can draw and animate, and my friend is good with editing and such. I might look there. XD
