You can upload the screenshots to an image hosting site like imageshack or photobucket. Use the img tags and enclose the complete url of the image, but both imageshack and photobucket supply links you can copy and paste with the tags included already.

I think i`m gonna create my own website for this. My organisation that i work for keep blokking alot of sites, so no luck on that part thx anyway .

Good idea. I recommend using Megabyet if you want a free webhost. Looking forward to see what you have been up to. I have just finished my first complete platformer mini-game using Unity.

You must show us!

Hi guys any leads for free 3D moddeling programs... that actually wprk and are not only trials.

you only need blender. The interface is challenging, but once you learn it it works like a well oiled machine. It has great features, and you can make AAA quality stuff with it. Just look at the openproject movies they made.

Blender is great. However keep in my that it is challenging. You will have to go through quite a bit of tutorials before you will be able to create a game character. You will also have to animate the models. First use a model from the game engine you are using as a starting point to see how it needs to be done. Not every game engine uses the same type of models nor the same rigs. Modelling is not easy. But if you keep your head in the game you might do just fine. Good luck!

Thanks you guys are helping me very much. I`m now busy playing with Blender and yep its a bit complicated - nope alot complicated but with alot of features, i`m struggling to make point drawings in blender but hopefulle wil soon figure it out, just alot frustrating only hahahahaha. It`s cool with al the meshes you can use but i want to just do 3d point and line drawings for now so ......... wil keep you guys posted on how it goes.

I'm still using version 2.49. What version are you using? The reason I ask is because Blender 2.5's Alpha 2 is now available and I hear it has a new layout. I also hear that quite a bit has changed. Dunno if is wise switching to 2.5 now as it still might have a few bugs.

RBD

I`m also still on 2.49, maybe you can help with some advice how to do only simple drawings so I can understand the program better.

hi guys been a while since I`ne been here, any new develepment from any of you guys ?

Im currently busy with a small game in Unity 3D. I should be finished within 2 days. Would anyone be interested in a tutorial? Anyone even remotely interested in game development should download unity. Its taking the game dev world by by storm.

Attack of the evil hairy coconuts is now done!

It took about 4 days. Coding was done in C# and it uses PhysX for physics.

Great can't wait to get your tutorial will appreciate it alot..

I don't visit this forum enough. You guys should search for "Tornado Twins" on Youtube, they did a tutorial series that really helped me get into Unity3D.

I'm currently working on a First Person game in Unity 3D(free version) and I must say that it's quite challenging, which I like. I'll post screenshots as soon as I've got something worth showing.

I'll try the coconut game tonight, can't wait.

Im the (currently only 3D Modeller/Designer for the RollcageX Game Project

And I am developing a Visualization Engine via Visual Studio ... although not a game - but somewhat related - that will be usable by primarily .net based media players, and such....




I am looking for an additional game project to join in on (if 3d / if space based ) if anyone needs a 3d modeller.

Great Unity tutorial site:

http://unity3dstudent.com/

Run by the creators of Unity as far as I can tell.

Im not writing the tutorial at the moment. Its taking way too much time. Maybe I'll do it in the future.

Im downloading beta 4 of Unity 3! Soooooo excited!

Cool Thanks I`m starting tonight with the schooling .

i actually recently started a games dev course here in the UK

3years starting from scratch with C++ coding and i got grant for it
