im baln a newbie to linux im interested in games , i hate windows (fatal exception and all that), i installed winex on mdk 9.0 but i don't seem to be gettin much out of it,now about some one issueing a call to get to make linux a gaming platform,please will some one elaborate,how much has this matured that is ,if it just were'nt a stray thought.
if such a group is constituted,what would it take , criteria for membership in knowledge ,skill,etc. |
I'll pick up UT2003 tonight. I think I can have the start of a map by the end of the night. if anyone is good at molding that would be very benificial for this project.
if anyone has any ideas on maps please post away...ill use what i can |
Arioch, one question: Have you been successful at making the UED work under Linux (via Wine or something?)
[edit] Its been almost a year since I trashed my Windows partition :D [/edit] |
i have an idea where you could host the project: sourceforge.net. they host projects (including games), and if they accept your project (yes, its reviewed by a human and it can be turned down) then you get 100mb web space for free!!! its a good offer! also, im starting to learn c++, so after i gain expr, i could maybe be one of those code monkeys!

I'm installing UT2K# on bth partitions right now :)
I've been mkng most maps for DukeNuk'em and for friends that play RPG's (without pc's)... And i'm currently trying to understand how Maya works. :) Havven't really used much 3d proggies since Real 3d, imagine and Lightwave on my Amiga (last time 1994). Fantasy? *smiles* I'm a rabid Warhammer fanatic.. So if there's going to be anything like that i'll be a raving lunatic. Eh? Ok, i'll be even worse. :) To bad that the editor for Savage is so comlete basic. :(( That was a dissapointment to me. |
Ok - Im installing Maya tonight.
|
or actually is 3D blender gpl? It would be nice to be legit.
[edit] [another edit] this is the latest one: http://www.blender3d.org/ |

PS: I know this project is off topic, but if this project is going to get moving, I must learn what libraries are in Linux C++. What are they and what are their M$ Development Studio equivalents? Where can I find that? I have gotten used to using, like, iostream.h, fstream.h, math.h, etc. and those are not in my flavor of Linux. The thread I have started on that has not gotten any activity. |
So does the unreal editor run natively in linux?? I just assumed it did because ut2k3 itself, runs natively. And wether or not it's native, where do i get it?? Is it on the cd's or installed automatically?
And i'm gonna download Blender 3D. Give it a shot. See if i can recall my basic 3d modelling from grade 11 :). Boy it really sounds like this is getting serious! I sure hope this can get done! I love the idea of being part of a game's development! |

blender looks pretty good - detailed - now to try to figure out what it can do.
easiest instructions to install I've ever seen [for newbies: tar -zxvf package.name.tar.gz then type ./blender in the folder or /path/to/blender/./blender] |
