fyi:

sprites = 2 dimensional drawings
models = 3 dimensional creations(for lack of a better term)

sprites are for 2d, not 3d

Actually, look up voxels. A voxel is actually a pixel, the real term for the model/sprite thingy is a voxel section. It's pretty much a 3D sprite. It is drawn in layers. Each pixel is basically a cube in 3D space. It's kinda hard to visualize, I know, but look it up.

Only Crysis uses those.

Hell no, that's a waste of time. I'll make custom tiles and characters though.

i suggest 2 engines i've worked with. torque game engine. c# syntax buggy but well worth the price

and game maker if your just starting out

argelfraster · Post by **argelfraster** » Sun May 24, 2009 2:32 pm

i cant use gamemaker, for some reason when i download it ( its the xp version btw ) and start it up, the program immediately says i've used up my 30 days and i need to buy it.

Uh, you need to buy it anyway. The free trial version is absolutely useless. It's only something like $20 anyway...

there are other naughty forms of aquiring it but at 14 pounds u might as well buy it

If anyone wants to help me with the 2D (Oh dear, sorry for not being original) Pokemon Game that I've been working on and off for 3-4 years now PM me

Why not use the original GBC or GBA engine? Far more authentic, and lets you play on real hardware, or emulate on many different devices (PSP, GBA, GP2X, PC, Mac, Linux, Dingoo, etc.)

If anybody wants to go that route, consider me on-board for as much time as I can spare. I made a pokemon game back in the day, just 3 gyms, but it sucked.

Then I learned a lot of new stuff, and while I got some fun little demos together, I never applied it to a full game.
