SoW - From Concept to Game Asset

I wrote up a post about the process of creating a game ready model for T3D on my blog. It is more an interest piece for non-developers than something technical, but some people here might enjoy it, if only for the pictures.

T3D Beta - Initial Impressions, Level Editing

Well, the T3D beta is upon us, as I'm sure everyone knows. Like everyone else involved, I opened up the Warrior Camp and Physics demos and "oohed" and "ahhed" at the shiny. But last night was the first opportunity I had to sit down and play with T3D, so I decided to start at the beginning and create a level from scratch. Shiny is nice, but how does the new engine "feel"?

Early WIP - Wayland's Camp

Did a few models for one of the game areas yesterday, suppose it doesn't hurt to post them. Early days yet, mind, just some tents and pointy sticks thrown together in a test area.

SoW - A Quick Update

The new GG site reminded me of just how long it's been since I posted here. Too long. Scars of War development continues, sometimes slowly, but it continues.

It's all Josh Josh Engebretson's fault. He forced me, forced me I tell you, to port to TGEA. I've betrayed everything I believe in. :( Heh, just kidding. But it is his fault. Him and tho...

SoW - Environments.

I have to admit, Scars development has been pretty slow the last month or so. There are 2 reasons for this. First, the release of a lot of games that I've been waiting ages for. Mask of the Betrayer, ...

SoW - The War in the West
