@denzel: thank you. Wise saying.

@madhaker. Find something much more productive to do. XSS is cheap. you are no hacker but an attacKer, i wont hail you.

You dont need some of those programs you mentioned. As a beginner in python all you need is the python interpreter, notepad2 or any other IDE and the command line(CMD). I think you can get the interpreter from www.python.org.

After installation, check the manual, it contains tutorials or you can visit www.diveintopython.org for some great tutorial.

Seriously, you dont really need anyone to give you a head start in programming. If you want to learn python/c#/php just use google and i am sure the first ten results will get you started. Asking here will only slow you down.

Cheers

@laurexie: I am always available to help you and anyone. Yes! I would suggest you take your time, learn, experiment, feel excited and proud about whatever you do no matter how basic it may seem. If you do decide to learn a High-level language, i would advice you to choose Python. Its simple and powerful. Writing Web apps with it is also possible too.


Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in advance

@neo: welcome to the team. Feel free to contribute. Thanks

@laurexie:

Before you decide to learn programming you must first decide which area/field interest you. You may decide to program Web, Desktop and mobile applications.

Then you choose a programming language. Examples are PHP for Web, Python/C++/Java for Desktop, Java/C++ for mobile.

If you want to join us quickly, i would suggest you go learn Javascript @ http://w3schools.com since we'll be using it with Unity3D(our preferred game engine) as our scripting language.

I hope it helps.

@frenkstayl

Yes, sculptris is cool. We tried it months ago, too bad i wasnt able to model neatly. Why not show us stuffs u have done with it.

@Gameaddict: yes i have seen it.

@Zeta, i have a couple of blender resources, i will post links to them later, right now im on mobile.

@All: For human modelling, Makehuman.org is pretty cool, harmone introduced it to me. Although, i am finding it difficult to export the character.

@Gameaddict: Good to have you back. You can send the password to kennedyidialu@gmail.com.

@harmone.

Great! really nice. Uploading it as a .blend file is best. You can also post screenshots here too.

I would have suggested you upload the the file to our sourceforge project account but only gameaddict has the password to it for now.

Did you add textures? Cannot wait to see it.

Great job again.

Cheers

@GA:

Its been a while. Really nice screen you've got there.

@Harmone: I tried scanning the illustrations with my phone but they are kinda dark. I will post it later. But you dont have to wait for my illustrations you know, you can
start modeling houses.

A simple maze where the player just walks around picking stuffs and probably earning points will be alright for testing.

@Thatdave,mema900,amaof,alawore,dapor,easy03 and others

You are all welcome to the team. We are happy that you made the right decision to join us. We have started work already. Please go through the early pages to familiarize yourselves with the storyline

We are using the Unity3d game engine which can be downloaded @ http://unity3d.com.

I will send a mail to everyone later today and our SourceForge group and Facebook group/page.

Cheers.

@Harmone

Welcome to the team bro. We have been looking for someone like you, a dedicated 3D artist. I really appreciate your call and i love your spirit. Unity3D is great and i am sure you will enjoy working with it.

At the moment, i have a problem with my laptop. But it will be fixed by monday.

At the moment, we are working on the first level. We need to replicate the looks and feel of a Nigerian ghetto/town with simple houses(2 storeys, 'Face-me-i-face-you',shops,kiosk etc).

These buildings should be low poly, some of them dont need spaces in them except important once like police stations,some kiosk,actors house etc.

I would love for you @harmone to commence the modelling of this houses while i find a lasting solution to this gutter issue.

The gutter issue can be solved by modelling the whole level in blender, but we will loose the ability to use the goodies that came with the terrain system.

i am still looking @ the makeHuman, i like it, i will post my thought later today.

Update: I will post pictures/sketches of the kind of houses to be modelled later.

Cheers

dude! Sorry, i believe he was only trying to be funny. But wait! did you have to open a new thread?

@Donpozo: I understand you were just trying to showcase your humour skills by trying to turn a serious conversation to a 'lol,lwkmd' kind of thread. But d poster was serious, even dualcore says something meaningful after all the 'babes/woman talk'. Abi na too much coding cause am?

Cheers

Ex 1: hot and nice, ashawo, rich gurl
Ex 2: hustler, rod addict, china wear

@GA: Great. I havent been able to do anything. Still have other things taking much of my time.

@fif
If you want a 'who wants to be a millionaire' style game in html and javascript, i can help you with that. If u are interested call me 07033231214

if you want to develop something like facebook, you will need to have a good knowledge of HTML,PHP,JAVASCRIPT(not java), You can start your quest by visiting http://w3schools.com

Cheers

I believe he started FB with PHP,Javascript/Ajax.

if you intend to run d code, please correct the variable from 'oyn' to 'dyn', happy coding.

@GraphMoney

Thanks alot. Contest? I havent sensed that.

@GA:

I understad you. To make the collider work well, we need to build models and their various parts independently,like for example,the goal post, lets say we use cylinders for the poles, we can later export the model and apply colliders to the individual poles/cylinders. As for the gutter, that is one difficult thing to achieve without blender. The rest of the scene is very cool.

As for a gutter, we can create that in unity with multiple terrains. We leave space between the terrain and place the gutter model in the space. I think there is a function that makes the terrains work together. Terrain.setNeighbours

Currently, i am working on a project that is taking my time. Hopefully i will have some freedom by d weekend.

------
I am not saying we should recreate the level, NO, this level i perfect to begin work.

Happy new month everyone.

@GA

Some of the objects in the scene dont act well when a collider is applied.Like the goal post and the electric post, i was unable to walk through/inside after applying a box collider. The gutters did not display correctly. All this errors are there because the world was made in blender. We need to create this world in unity, on a unity terrain so that we can take advantage of unity's terrain physics and other features. Blender should be used for modelling the world components,that way we can size things independently and accurately. For example the goal post.

My suggestion is we should try to port the blender world into unity.

@Ojukwu
Nice to know your pc is ok now. As at now most of the models we'l need are Realistic houses, koisk,shops,mosque,church etc. Make a 2 or 3 storey building, with no space inside and a shop for now. We can populate the scene with this models. What tool are you using for modelling? Thanks

Cheers

@willo. Welcome to the team.

I am currently working on the camera.

@skoten: Welcome back bro.

@GA: Alright, i have downloaded it. At the moment i am not with my laptop, i will get home by tomorrow. I will add a camera and use a cylinder prefab as actor and allow the camera follow the actor while adding collision detection to both actor and camera.

Nice.

Cheers

@Mama!

I know what trash folder is. You didnt need to remind me or define it though.

Thanks pple. I will remove my email right away. I wonder how this scammer expects someone to fall for this old trick in 2010. Na wa ooo.

@Roki
Thanks o. I was hoping d thread will make d homepage, lol

Ok, This is really great. I still cant find good tutorials on texturing. You did this in blender right, cool man. Can you upload the project file so i can begin work on the camera?

Just look at the kind of mail one mumu sent me.A fellow nigerian like myself.

@GraphMoney

Thanks alot.

@Ojukwu
You are welcome to the team. We are currently creating the first level, since you have skills with 3D modelling tools, we will need low poly models  of buildings(Naija sytles) this buildings dont have to have openings/Spaces inside. We want to complete this level really quick. Your help here will make things easier. Welcome to the team again.
