My friend and I have been using Blender for a little while and have been planning a game to make. Unfortunatly, there aren’t that many basic tutorial/resources out there (that we’ve been able to find) and we were hoping for a few pointers. Can anyone help?

either read the stickes in this forum or be more specific

Well the best way to learn how to make games with blender is to download other peoples work…

https://blenderartists.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11857

or ask specific questions on here, it’s very easy to pick up the basics of Blender.

also if you download a game that is a .exe you can still see how they made the game by opening through blender.

Good luck :smiley:

  1. Make a story or something like plans
  2. Make weapons or character models or make both
  3. make the world
  4. make houses or objects that belong to the world
  5. Put them all together and connect them with logic bricks however you want… and set the cameras and stuff
  6. add sounds
  7. release a demo or something and if that worked and everyone liked it then you can work on a better project… That means don’t start a game if you haven’t made a little game or haven’t seen other’s games and viewed their blend files…

Okay…

Sutabi - Sorry, I was just trying to find out the best place to start

rep-re-crea - Thanks, will do

orion119net - Thanks for the info, but a last resort at the moment I think (I’m flat broke :()

xintoc - Wow! Thanks. I’ll see what I can do and if I make some progress I will post a demo

OTO - Not self promoting are we? It’s a good site, I did the pinball tut. It helped out but we were trying for a bit of a 3rd person style game which (we think) needs different steps.

Thanks everyone. I’ll take your advice and get back to you.

Hello
I also have attempted to make a 3d MMORPG I have some landscaping done and a few buildings made, also have some animated character model and a spider monster animated , good idea is do everything by the book because I made my game pretty much the way i wanted not the way I should . It’s good to take advice and learn what can and cannot be done with blender. Also u should have a nice website for your game before u even relase a screenshot , Name and storyline is also important. Plan and write things down Goals and Accomplishments for the game and set a date to finish these things , It will provide motivation for completion. Read tutorials throughly dont jus read hal of it and assume to do it another way. READ CAREFULLY Do just as they say, I may have to redo 3yrs worth of learning and learn all again, because I didnt pay attention to tutorials. Well I hope for much luck to your game and would like an update link to your website when you have one made.
