anim8or game team effort
« on: July 26, 2008, 07:13:55 pm »

Ok straight to the point  :) ill use cre8or 2 make the game and i can't pay anyone...im only like eleven :-\. It will make a good portfolio for those of us taking it beyond hobby and it will be fun.I wont deny newbs (what better way 2 learn) or experts (its about time there was a project that you guys could enter.) so lets go.first off lets all toss our ideas into the mixin pot and make a storyline!!! ;D so if anyone had an idea sittin in the back of their head.Only restiction is it has to be a good clean not too gorey and not at all nasty and also must be original. :)

So i'd like to point out if you want to make a good game, cre8or is not the way to go. If you wanna sell go for something better like 3dgamestudio. If you just wanna make the game just to say I can make games, sure, use cre8or. BTW, i can't help out cause i've got to many projects going on

Well, the game engine is up to you guys, just make sure it's a good one.
As for me, I'll be doing the CG stuff with anyone else that joins, I'm not really into programming, maybe when I'm older and have more time (I know that's a contradiction).

What I'm thinking is massive environments, that are very different from one another (forests, oceans, arctic, something with volcanoes etc).
I don't have any story idea's yet, when I get one, I'll let you guys know, and if this project gets anywhere then almost cool will have to set up a website and forum, and he might have to let CG-Nation know, they have a lot of pro's over there.

yeah i was thinking a massive freedom rpg mideival game with the ability to go anywhere and become from a theif or a knight or anything in between,with a main point,yet billions of side quests.and the game doesnt end when u beat it,it just continues so you can play around and explore and finish the side quests.kind of like oblivion.but thats just my idea and this is not my game,its ours.

And tanzim, i already got a website goin!im in the prosses of making it,and building a collection of anim8or-cre8or games and workin on the site. no it wont be a cheap freewebs.im hard coding it.and for a forum...i know a guy.

And about CG-nation, i dont want pro`s.its just an anim8or project!

Nice to know.
Project or not, it might go big, and there's no 'just' in Anim8or.

It will make a good portfolio for those of us taking it beyond hobby and it will be fun.
I'd like to get the most out of this!
Although if you want to keep this small than that's cool as well, though not as cool... :-\

cre8or is no longer being maintained

and there ae fa too many things it still needs.


it doesn't have the power to make a full game.

I don't think maplestory would be the way to go. I would much prefer it to be similar to TES. Maybe even online play...

What's TES?
I don't think we will be able to go as far as online play, maybe just install and play.
Do we have a official team, opr anything like that?

what u mean team tanzim?

well I dont really think online will be a good idea for bandwidth, language and such.i dont think were aproaching this right.lets not use something similar to other games and make an original, creative, complex game.lets start with this.a game without limits, where you can do virtually anything, where you can do things impossible in reality.but yet the game has a main point.now lets find an era.

who likes a dark mideival with demons and dragons and beasts. pm 1 to me.explain why

who likes another world where there is no real similaritys to past present or future. pm 2 to me.explain why

who likes future with lazers or energy beams (persolnally i think  this is used up). pm 3 to me.explain why

who likes a modern day era with guns & such (also exhausted but thats just my opinion). pm 4 to me.explain why

when everyone has voted we shall begin.

mine is 2,because i think we could get most creative with it.
