Hello, I am making thinking of making a game not sure what engine to choose from or make my own. The game site is being built and the plot and is being worked on. The team is only me so far and I am only looking for the best talent. This game has potential and I am looking for partners not lazy people who just dont have time or want to take this serious. If you want to know more drop me an email ''blue72@tampabay.rr.com" for more details and my ideas!!! BlueWolf72 Productions

And why don''t you make a summary of the game here. You''ll have more luck finding people that way.

Ya thought that to. But I want to go a more personal approach. I have a connection to get a game engine at low price and we split the $ made. My game idea is FPS single player Multi concept with a few different twists to it. I would like to form a team we all break the money made by the number of team members. I firstly want to do this for fun learn from the task and than make $!!!

I know this isnt much but if you are looking to chat or email me go for it.

Site should be done in a week.

Looking for:

Asset creation/game design-
one full-time 3D artist/designer
one full-time 3D artist
one part-time 2D artist
one 2D concept artist

Software development team-
one lead programmer
one additional full time programmer
short-term assistance with network, interface and sound code from one other full-time programmer

I am looking for partners not to be anyones boss. Team work is the key. I am a late bloomer so my exp is limited. But the connections I have and the idea of my game is in my opinion a nice one. I am not paying anyone till we get money in our pockets from our hard work.

Like I said I will talk to you one on one and show you the engine I want to use and you can either say "I have found a better one" or "Ya this one will work" My current projects are HL MODS and I want to make a game!!!

You''re obviously very keen, but you might be being a little optimistic. The reality is that a modern FPS game takes years to develop with a large team. You can''t just jump on a messageboard and expect to get a talented team that''s going to work ''full time'' for that long with no pay to see your vision come to life. People with ideas who want to start a game are a dime a dozen. If you want to see your design come alive you have to put in more of yourself, and ask for less from others.

If you''ve got a good multiplayer/FPS idea, then your best choice might be to make a mod.

Finish your current projects. Doing so will give you a good idea of what it takes to see a project to completion when you already have the engine done; extrapolate from there for a complete job including developing the engine.

Seeing how I would put up the front money I dont see my self asking for a magic. I am simply asking to get people interested in making a game.

"You''re obviously very keen, but you might be being a little optimistic." <--- You dont know me enough to judge in the forums let alone blame me for anything.

It would take to long to build my own engine I am looking at two. If you are a programmer who wants to stab at a new project drop me an email!!!

Don't take it personally, I wasn't casting judgement, just giving my 2c. There's a massive jump from doing a mod to doing your own game, and to expect to make money from your first venture is a little far fetched. So it seems a waste to blow your cast on a commercial engine so early.

I see what your saying but I am trying to get my hands ona engine at a 500 price tag. Its not the best but it could work for a demo of the game. I am thinking small but big down the road!!!

If all else fails I will make it a mod again.


If you are a skin artist in MS3D I could use yr help!!!

Its smart you are looking at getting an engine and not building your own. I would recommend The V12 engine (looks good though its source code is still being cleaned up), 3D Game Studio (excellent tools but looks a little ugly), or Auran Jet (no tools yet).

I would forget about getting artists here though. You might have more lucking finding them in the modding community.

Ya I was looking at "Auran Jet", ya not many people are interested in making a game!!!

Well the idea is FPS with two characters and the pick there destiny by the choices they make. I wanted to add a little twist in it, and that is the enemy can win but the game would go on since the goal is to capture kill or arrest the enemy!!!
