Game Developement December 2010

So far this month, we've done the following:

1. Choose an Engine

We've decided to try out some mapping using the Quake 3 engine (id Tech 3). It's a 1st person shooter engine and we're planning to turn it into our medieval/ancient/fantasy world.

2. Make a first map

A simple test map has been done. You can see a screenshot here, or see the map preview here.

3. Design a starting area

We've designed a starting area for the game, the island of Myag. Entire island map with information can be viewed here, or you can see the entire map without information here.

WARNING: Map is very big, needed to fit in detail

4. Find some decent music for background

We've found some decent music for the game's background, ranging from medieval music and christmass carols to Rocky and funky music. All can be found here.

The Trailer Can Be Found Here Or Here

That's all we've done so far this month. Please post your suggestions, questions and answers here and in the other categories. We're open to all suggestions. Please also post feedback on the above content here. Have a merry Christmass and a great holiday.

PS. I Did An Epic Trailer, With Music From The Matrix!
PPS. Post This Under Announcements
PPPS. I've Got Some Other Music For Us.
Final Thought. I'll Post It Later
Final Thought PS. I Think I Will Atleast
Final Thought PPS. Merry Christmass!

Okay, I'm doing some prefabs because doing the map will take forever otherwise.

I've done an Obelisk, and Sandicras Temple (I Changed It A Bit)

Ok Great

Um...I'm gonna need someone else to join the Dev Team, It'll Be Really Helpful If I Can Find Some Q3 Mappers...I'll try Put up a Job Request.

Volunteers. I'll try looking at the Engine too, how do you get it?

Err I'll Have To Give It To You, It's Illeagal Otherwise, I'm using the Darkplaces JK3 Engine.

To Arrange The Give over, U'll Have To Come To My House/Me To Your's With A Memory Stick (700mb) (without mods)

Ok, sometime after Christmas

We need to work on the Tutorial. Come here and suggest!

Tut's Are Easy, Give Em A Situation And What To Do, They'll Get Out Of It, It's What People Do In FPS and TPS

Okay:

-I'm Going To Give You Some 'Links'
-These 'Links' Will Take You To Some Tuts On GTK Radiant, Sadly You Can't Do Anything Other Than Map Until I Give You The Game.
-You'll Also Get GTK Radiant, To Map With.

Every Thing Is Covered Above (Mostly) But You'll Have To Wait To Get My Game Until You Build and Play the maps...and Texture the maps (You Can Make Your Own However)

OK, by the way, how's the trailer, if its done, can you send me the link?

It's been done for quite a while...but I'm thinking of doing another, with other music...I'll post it anyway, when I get home.(using my iPad)
