Wow!!! finally made a manageable walk cycle! I'll try adding run cycles, clothes and textures next.

@ World best: Downloaded unity yet? I'll start testing level ideas as soon as I finish modeling some props. I'm not worrying about textures and looks for now.

@Everyone: whats up? You guys ain't posted in a while,

Starting to put things together on my multiplayer project, still trying to figure out whether to incorporate weapons in the modeling program or in the game cuz I'm having problems with the gun positioning and stuffs.

@GA

Nice. I have downloaded unity but i haven't had the time to learn it. Do you have any resource that can help?

@Gameaddict, any chance we could meet?? i believe this project would go far if all people interested get to meet in person, i'd also love to chat with u online or meet in person.
hola back.

@ world best: There's lots of resources and tutorials on the unity website. I think they're under the support section. The scripting used in the tutorials are not always explained(like the lerpz 3rd person platformer example) but some of it is easy to learn once you go through them. The projects on the other hand come with no docs. Another good website is unitylabs.com. They explain many things from basics to simple 3rd person cameras and movement.

@ kencas: welcome to the team. Feel free to contribute anytime. Get unity3d as soon as possible cuz we're using it for now. Till we're comfortable with ogre and other addons.

@ A-zed: It would really be nice if everyone could meet sometime cuz it might make things easier. My mail is adamsibrahim_1@yahoo.com. You can use it to mail me and search for me on facebook. I live around Ajah.

Hi guys, how'z everyone doing?

I'm trying to create different scenes to get more ideas on the game levels. I think we need to discuss the levels now. We need to get an idea of the gameplay and how it's gonna feel, 

The first and second are warehouses(only crates are textured, rest is toon shader color). The third and fourth is a rushed up textured cave.

welcome to the team. please, try downloading unity 3d and some tutorials. Feel free to contribute anytime.

Working on the character, I'm trying to decide on the best rig system to use, By God's grace and PHCN's cooperation, I'll upload some test levels so we can understand and visualize our plans in a better way.

do you know how to design software?

@ autoclick: What kind of software?

@ Whizkid: Welcome, don't hesitate to contribute wherever possible.

@ everyone: I couldn't get much work done but I completed a model for the AI and added some animations. I'm still trying to learn how to script animation into layers in unity. I also had to test the AI so I read the AI script used in the fps tutorial. I still don't understand it much but I got it working somewhat,  I'll throw in a few models for buildings and props and upload the project file when I'm done with some modifications so we can start organizing our ideas better.

I've uploaded my project file to megaupload.

The url is: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K3F10KIJ

Anyone who has downloaded unity 3d can check it out. It's 13mb. Two test levels and no real interaction. Hopefully, we can start working on the ideas for levels now. We'll also need to figure out the texture aspects. I'm using really simple and bare textures at the moment and some of them don't look to good. 

There's eba, amala and tuwo on the levels if you're hungry.  I haven't scripted them yet. They only spin at the moment. 

Totally Awesome!

@gameaddict
Unity3D is the way to go. As you can get your game out there quickly.
Your project file is it in the indie version of unity or the pro version?
What version of unity are you using?

I'm using the indie version. It's free

I think that the success of any game hinges on very good art work.

@aphek: I don't really think so. Pacman and a lot of other games are not what I'd consider as succeeding based on art but they are very successful games. Recent games, especially high end ones backed by big publishers do need every bit of art quality that can be bought but then, it still depends on the game. That said, I'm hoping all the artists who put up their names will start doing something quickly. We haven't done anything considerable since we decided to work on this project and it seems most don't even visit this page anymore.

, am back guys,i travalled and i jst came back and waz offline.

@ Skoten: Welcome back bro.

Hello people i am not really a games programer or really good in graphics instead i prefer sound i want to commend you all but you guys should make ur game very unique to Africa like an african experience that way ur games can be discovered by the international game community. note this is just a suggestion. once again i commend you all

Thanks donclemo. It doesn't matter what area you're good at. We need all the help and advice we can get.

Am Afraid, it's been long I Contributed on this forum. This is simply because I was on leave. How far have you gone? Hope I will still be able to hope?.

Hi Big star, welcome back. We haven't done much but we've decided to use unity 3d as the game engine for various reasons. Download it and have some fun. We still have a lot of work to do.

Thanks. But How do i get the full version, I only saw trial version online

Go to http://www.unity3d.com/unity/download

The indie version is free but they allow you use the pro features for one month.

Also check the resources page for tutorials.

Hi Mobinga, welcome to the team. I visit the gaming section sometimes and I've come across some of your posts. They are nice.

We are using unity3d as the game engine so download it as soon as possible. Everyone needs to start coming up with plans and suggestion regarding the game especially the game play and levels. We've picked a storyline but that does not mean you can't edit it. We need to be flexible and fast with the development and really need much input from everyone. I'm hoping you'll also be able to help with the models and animations.


@ Everyone: If you've downloaded unity3d and gone through the tutorials, try checking out the demos especially the 3rd person shooter. I'm having problems with most of the scripts and sometimes, the models and scripts are structured in particular ways meaning one may have to model characters using the same structures as the test models in the demos.
