Development question

03/26/2009 06:29 Hoven#1
Sorry this is in the wrong sub forum but I just want to ask a quick question.

Is anyone good with game creation, as in 3D maps and scratch games? Because me n my friend oscar are creating 1, so far we have built 3D maps and citys n bunkers etc, and are moving to coding the game now. Any tips or help would b cool. We all are playing our parts!

Just leave an comment if u are good at any of the following things and are willing to be dedicated:
Coding
Website design
Map creation(2d or 3d)
Cd designing & processing

Thanks!i

Exactly WHICH programming language are you looking to go with, C++?
If not C++ or VC++(CLI), are you planning C#? I don't know how successful it would be in C#, you don't see many games written in C# these days.

Isn't VB very popular to create 2D games with?

If you`re using C++, I really liked DarkGDK, try it out. Also Irrlicht seems to be popular with it. But you will fail if you don`t start with a decent C++ knowledge, trust me, I did.

If you use C#, go with XNA, I`ve seen some seriously good stuff done with it.

Oh, and one thing :D Don`t ever start an MMO XD It will be a horrible fail.

Ye its pretty neato, i used it for a mmorpg since i didnt want to just use a simple form -> database. Insert the control on the form and code away :P.

OpenGL isn't good for 3D.

DirectX is the only way to go really.
XNA is gay.
