A new game development team

[Rapchik Killer]

^ i used to think that way.. but i found out the hard way that its best not to reinvent the wheel.. now ogre, irrlicht any engine and make the project on that.. do plan to create a major game engine some time.. but never get the time to do so :S...

That depends on whether you want to just make your game or learn 3d game programming.

wht about some game testers , i m in......btw i can do stuff like making movies of games on sony vegas with some great music and good visual effects (offcourse of some artist).......so if there is such kind of work involve, then i can also help.....

here is a movie of mine which i made by using CS Demos, u guys can watch n give ur feedback:

P.S...i m not a professional, this is just a part of my hobby....

 

[nasha26]

are there people here that can ACTUALLY make games? and I am talking about al sorts..... from 2D combat to prince of persia two thrones.

 

[Rapchik Killer]

lol.. if neone could make prince of persia two thrones single handedly he would be the king of game development in the world and would be a multi billionaire..

 

[nasha26]

hey man, I didnt say I want just one man to make it all. I said I am looking for people who think they can do it? and if you think about it you only need a few people. an excelent grapgics 3D designer, a really cool programmer who can do stuff on engines like jade (the one used on POP) a good story and stuff like cinematics and music. nuthing money cant attract.

Game Developer

I can help as a programmer
Currently I am playing with OGRE (Object Oriented Graphics Rendering Engine). Working on AI stuff. In last days i have complete the code for 3rd person camera system in OGre.

Also Having the knowledge of 3ds Max never make any character but have made bunch of unorganic things.

Also have a little bit knowledge of Flash.

So thread starter must have to make a list of available Programmers, Modelers, Flash Gurus(for making GUI and HUD).

A real problem that can encounter is Motion Capturing i can think so, what u guys say???

 

[hiratariq]

Umm... I am back... but with time my dreams have changed.

Guys, I need at least one dude, willing to teach me 3d game programming in C++, preferably with direct3d. I need 1 or 2 for my portfolio to get in a game development program abroad. Please please please help me! I don't mind paying you either, but please save my life someone!!

Regards,
Hira.

 

[aameeshah]

Which game development program? Do share!

 

[hiratariq]

yes, I have downloaded 2 books:

Introduction to 3D Game Programming with DirectX 9.0c
Advanced 3D Game Programming with DirectX 9.0

But the code inside is so scary. Plus I don't understand how to set up a directx project in visual studio. The book shows examples from a visual studio 6 project, while I use visual studio 2008.

I am stuck!!

 

[hiratariq]

This is the program I am most passionate about: http://guildhall.smu.edu/Master-s-Information.195.0.html

 

[hiratariq]

Yayyy!! that worked! Thanx... But I don't know what to do now... lol! The book is so complicated!

 

[hiratariq]

What kind of a C++ is this? I learned C++ 3 years ago, made 2, 3 gdi+ games and simulations in Turbo C. Even the books I studied had easy C++ in it. But whats this language used for Direct3d? Will I ever be able to understand these codes. Do I need to learn something else first? Please refer me books I need to read as a prerequisite to learning this stuff?

I spent so much time with 2d games in C# and java and web development, C++ scares me!!

hi can u make ps3 game if yes then i m interested in that i will help u alot in so manu things like the startup screen and how the character will be and so how the starting movie will be n so much...

 

[Rapchik Killer]

I think you are scared because its windows mfc.. you must have worked with console application.. this is simply code for making a window to work on and then you go on with dx code.. and cade is right this is simplest dx code.. just initializing the device and closing it..

BTW i would suggest starting with an engine like irrlicht .. that eases you into 3d game development..

 

[AbsoluteDashing]

I would suggest starting with Ogre.
Because later after learning Dx programming you are going to make a Graphics rendering engine. And Ogre is ready made free open source rendering engine..
It has large and very supportive community.
And they are adding more and more.

 

[hiratariq]

Umm... Thanx guys. I will give that a shot, assuming you guys will be there to help with any issues I encounter.

Do suggest books that may help me with the engines that you suggest, if they exist.

 

[Naminator]

Yeah well, I started DirectX this summer. Uptill now I can successfully create/release the directx device, set up transformations & vertex buffer and finally display polygons with colors/textures. Next step is lighting....
Anyways, I'd suggest taking basic Win32 programming tutorials beforehand. And then a bit about COM but that's not really necessary, because that'll scare you even more .

 

[bababango]

It's standard C++. I don't think there is anything special you need to learn for this, it's the simplest of tutorials I've seen.

good to see so much knowledgeable sharings .... impressed ....... ...... !! u guyz all are students or working??

5 years back when i was in programming feild we were only talking about VB , java, delphi ,lisp etc ..at that time we dont have such great tool like visual studio .... we have to write the classes again and again .. for different languages.......

its extreme ease to import the whole code base to different language by using dotnet's studio.........

If someone needs a 3D designer I am here. Just PM me. This is what i did in the past few years
http://j33l.bravehost.com/main.htm
I am familiare with 3D Studio Max and Blender.
