From my earlier blog post, www.garagegames.com/blogs/60084/10841 ive made some artistic progress... and just wanted to show it to you. Im making a modern day FPS game similar to Counter-strike, Battlefield 2 and Wolfenstein ET

about the image below, obviously the tank is the amazing bravetree tank pack, the player model that you can't see is the Soldier pack, everything else is my own, the HUD was created by me the m4a1 model is by me so is the texture, and i just want to say that the hands holding the gun and the skin for it is actually the soldier pack... i modified the model in cinema 4d down to just the arms and hands, and wrapped them around a gun... and btw if you think the weapon is rendered well that''s because it's not real... The screenshot is from torque game engine with my HUD and the tank, the hands and m4a1 is a cinema 4d render planted ontop of a TGE screenshot, this is just a mockup this isnt real, but this is what it should look like, i think it looks cool, and jsut wanted to share it with you

cheers, please post any comments

Combat Operations

Im 14, and im into computer gaming, espcially FPS, Ive played all the big multiplayer FPS games, Counter-strike, Wolfenstein ET, Battlefield 2, AA. and in all those games, i feel there's something missing. So i've decided to make my own game, with all those games put together, im not trying to copy them, i dont have enough skill and time to make super high poly Weapons with outstanding textures, and shaders that's not what i want in a game, sure it adds to how realistic the game feels but i cant help but feel something is missing. You play counter-strike and you want vehicles, you play battlefield and you want the rush of killing someone like on counter-strike

So, im making a computer game, what's the title? : Combat Operations
What's it about? : A modern day FPS game with vehicles

Im a real programming n00b and have never had ANY with any game engines. So i went and bought torque, had a play with it, experimented with various scripts off the GG site. Now im taking it to the next level. I've gpt my own art at my fingertips from my fellow teenager modeller. Im based in the UK and my resources are extremely limited as i dont have enough money, here's more about what i have

Computer :
Mac G4 dual 450mhz processors
1gb ram
128mb radeon 9200
Tools : TGE, Cinema 4d

im limited with interiot creation, ive used radiant but a liscense is too much for torque, so im not bothering... im going to wait for torque constructor for my interiors anyway you've probably had enough reading, this is my first blog, so please be kind and remeber im only 14... I cant really get across what im trying to say, basically i want a mix of all those big FPS games, but i want a quick reliable game, i dont care about graphics, as long as it isn't laggy in-game, but i do want to use TGE to it's full potential, if you see what i mean :P

i also plan to make other games at a later stage
