FreeBuild Project continues under Torque 3D

[elfprince13]

That's the sort of thing I was thinking of. Absolutely no idea if they work with Torque, but if they work with C/C++ at all (and its unimaginable to me that game design majors don't since C++ is the industry standard), then they would definitely be helpful.

And I'd think that a university would balk less at the relatively paltry sum of a $100 license than a private programmer volunteering to help. I vote that you start sending out some feelers about this, although my impatience comes only from my impatience to play this game and enjoy more fine-grained control over my sandbox worlds than Minecraft offers.

The main reason I don't help with any of the coding for Freebuild is that I have no C++ knowledge. I've just never been able to pick it up. I was hoping I would learn in college but that's probably not happening for a while.

I actually am thinking of moving my Army Guys project to T3D(a friend of mine told me I can turn down the lights in the editor and get the same performance as TGE). So if I learn anything in the course of doing that I'll gladly carry that knowledge over to Freebuild.

You should take a look at some basic C first, and then try to layer the C++ knowledge on top of that. I'd be happy to point you in the right direction if you feel like some self directed learning on that front.

How's Army Guys going, btw?

For picking up C I suggest picking up a copy of K&R I keep mine with me pretty much all the time. All valid C code is also valid C++ code iirc so learning C first is definitely the way to go.

Elfprince, If your serious in getting more coders, wouldn't it be wise to get an online presence that's more significant than a subforum in a calculator site? Like Sourceforge, ModDB, etc?

Soo.... is this the torque that doesn't come with the destructable objects code? just wondering since I got back into learning game development... and I was playing with Torque's recent version... >.>
