I've tried programming my own since my first 20 goto 10. I have had some luck in the text only area of programming TI calculators. Everytime I try something fancy, I always give up. Patience and recreating the wheel are my biggest problems. I have known about game engines but never saw GG before. <br><br> I saw GG and bought it instantly. (Yesterday). Now I have a place to start that isn't creating my first triangle.<br><br> So, here is what I've done so far:<br><br>1. Completed the Beginner's Tutorial in the TDN<br>2. Messed around with the AI tutorial in the TDN<br>3. Made a little mission with the blue guys from the first tutorial.<br>4. Looked up object building in Blender<br>5. Designed my first thing in blender (without collision, that's tonight's headache).<br>6. Laughed at my designing skill (will definitly buy/ask for help for this later).<br>7. Imported my design over to torque succesfully!<br><br><br>This looks like a great community, I'm hoping I stick with it this time. I just have to fight the Warcraft urge.<br><br>-Richie<br><br>Ps. I wonder how many other people's first posts are like mine. <br>PPs. Screenshots will start next time.
