Well , been hanging around you site and decided that i should introduce myself.
I'm a 34 year old guy living in London and have been wanting to try create a 3d game myself for some time.So I fired up my copy of firefox and started checking out CS.
Looked at the related projects and found precursor which seemed very much like the game I wanted to create, it's at an early stage and seem to have being making steady progress.
While I have experience programming its mostly database and VB/PHP,while I am not a total stranger to C++ I have little experience programming with it. That's likely to change as I start getting into CS.
Currently I have precursors/Cel/CS and blender loaded and working.I am doing the tutorials, built my own walktest app from the doc's and have moved on to a little bit of modelling with Blender. After I get more of the basics down I plan to have a closer look at precursor and see if I can be any help. Probably be a while before I get up to speed but am making good progress.
My plan at the moment is to get basic modelling down ( read ugly ships ) and then to get more into CS, My current goal is to create a small trader/explorer type ship with several seperate weapons(read crew positions), and some form of damage system. Not going to try get any multilayer functionality as i think that above is plenty to work on to start.
Anyway,I will be in and out of the forums regularly to seem how you are getting along.
Regards
