well i am personally too busy to learn a new script lang.Who thinks they can?

I'll see if i can. I think i've still got panda3d around here some where . . .

Well panda 3d supports .X format so you could export anim8or files to 3ds then use the program conv3ds to make the files .X format.

Or you could export the models to blender(dont scorn me) then use the .egg export script.

I did not know that. I'll try it

[almost cool]

Blender...BLENDER!!!

HOW COULD YOU!

TRAITOR!

YOU ARE EXILED FROM THIS PROJECT!

Im just kidding of course.

good idea.and thx great noob,show us what u can do!

I could give python a go... Always helps for when i get higher up in education... like actually using REAL programming in school, all we use is excel so far.

tell me about it,im fluent in html,javascript,css,and learning php and mysql.im in middle school and last year they explained usage of "the notorios close button." in laymans terms.python seems like the best so far.

lol I bow down to you master of the script.

"Notorios close button" thats great.

3d Joe

Like I said I know games can be made in lua just IN MY experience I had never seen it used for a WHOLE game not saying thats what you guys where planning on doing, but whenever I used lua it was on top of something else low level like C/C++ code. I'm sure you guys dont need me to tell you this and I'm confident you'll manage to make something cool. Good luck in your pursuits.

btw
Wikipedia is a good source

I hope that was sarcasm.

3d Joe and generally

we need to do this civilized.

pm the one you want to me and first one to get 3 votes wins!

[3D Joe Wiltshire]

I meant no disrespect, i myself had never seen a game made with it, but i'm highly defensive with lua, i agree, on it's own, it'd be hard to make a 3d game.

And votes aren't the way to go, how 'bout we list up pros and cons of each?

[The Great Noob]

My Computer isn't wanting to run panda3d so i can't learn it.

I also agree with 3D Joe, we should do a pros and cons list

[almost cool]

i think so too lets do it.

[almost cool]

Panda 3d
pros
__________________________________________________________________________
lighting/shader system.

used to make disaster response scenarios for firefighter/police training.

seems to support high poly...oh just see for yourself.http://panda3d.org/showss.php?page=0&shot=ssg-antarean/antarean5

terranim8or type greyscale-to heightmap type thing.

cons

well,check this out.

self.environ = loader.loadModel("models/arena2.egg")
self.environ.reparentTo(render)
self.environ.setPos(0,0,0)
course = self.environ.find('**/Plane')
course.setCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(1))
Wall = self.environ.find('**/Wall')
Wall.setCollideMask(BitMask32.bit(0))
Wall.hide()

self.Doll = Actor("models/VoodooDoll",
{"run":"models/VoodooDoll-runcycle",
"stand":"models/VoodooDoll-walk"})

That was only a third of the code to make a charachter walk up and down hills.

[TheCodedOne]

I consider that con to be a pro. Do you know how much code it would take to replicate that in
c++ and opengl? (Just a statement I mean no offence)

i've tried to use panda 3d because some of the games used with it look really kool,but when i downloaded it ,all ther was wer a bunch of demos of games.

You have to download python and learn the python and panda 3d languages

Hey where did you learn JavaScript? I can't find a good place to learn it.

ok everybody i finished the alien head,black are eyes,skin color can be interchangeable i dont care,and its not subdivided.And i have another idea for the alien heads that use gene mutations,they would have like pods on the back of the heads filled with liquid that could be like giving them more speed or strength or whatever so if u want me to start making that one i will.

[alien head moved to pg 11]
