Ok here is the idea mate. Why dont you put a thing on your page that will post what others are up too. I mean it seems every mounth or so someone comes in with some grand idea wooo wooo woo. Im not being mean here but just saying how it is. Everyone has ideas but some people really have stuff going on and could use help with mew ideas and other things. For example at the momment I have about 100 pages worth of story line for a full 3D RPG. Granted its not going to be all "God God God God" I am all for praze its good for the soul but the game im working on is more of a moral issiue then anything. So facts: got story line going, have a person working from time to time on the workings of the world and mathmatical probs. Then I have Stephen doing programing as soon as he gets out of collage. So good idea that is up and in the works with people that are deddicated on a 3-4 year project. My team and I could still use help. 1 or 2 more programers would be nice. Another story teller would get in the way. Some modelers for the game is needed. I dont want to do it myself to tell you the truth. I could but I am do bizzy with basicly a 1000 page book atleast for story line and I only have 1/10th of that in 3 mounths. Im hopeing to do more then that. Anyways it would be nice if there was a place that said "Games In The Works" GITW for short if you wish or something else :P You could post what the team is working on for the game. Like say a list like this... 1000+ Story Line, Including Base Story, World History, Lore and so on. In short this place is a like a Dilbert Cartoon. Ever seen one. You know the guy with the bald head walks in and ses "I got an idea." Then the two tecnitions say, "Where doomed..." K so ive pooked fun Just a suggestion Love Luck and Lolly Pops to you all |

That is a much better name Mack. Thanks ^_^ "developers diary log" hmm or maybe just Developers Log. Im suprised someone is up as late as I am. My wife gets up at 1:30am for work every day so I try to keep the same scedual. Oh ya I almost forgot. For all of you that remmber all the big hubbub about me and Dissability I am going to see a Shrink-Nuroligist today. Just another Dr. that will probably give me more bull but I finaly got some insurance and my wife wants me to go threw with this. I know one thing for sure no more pills for me. Every time I take them I turn into a mood swing maniack. If I stay normal me im just picky. Picky is alot more pridictable then mood swing maniack  K enough bull out of me. I need to work on story and im doing to much telling of stories here. God Bless |

Angel - we are praying for a complete healing for you still! Krylar - The diary would be a neat addition (isn't it called a .plan in game industry?). Not sure the best place to tie it in. Our profile? Then you could have a small section on the home page showing the most recently updated ones (like you have for forum postings now). Hmm... starting to look like GarageGame's What's New? panel, see -> http://www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=home&page=news Thanks again to Krylar and all the other volunteers who help with CCN! God bless you! -Tim ------------------ |

quote: .Plan files have turned more into personal diaries which are also used to annouce milestones in the games development. A developers diary is more like a daily day by day addition to the game development. An example would be "I finished creating the text used in the game and it works awesome, now I'm moving onto other HUD graphical displays for the health". I've also seen diaries used over a course of a week/month, and then released to the public. ------------------ |

Hiya, There is now a new Showcase posted up on this site. It has the latest entries on the front-page so we can see at a glance who's doing what. And it will move any "updated" entries to the top. This doesn't mean that it will move up entries that someone posts a comment to, but rather if the owner of the entry makes an update...it moves. There is also a new category called "Developer Diary" so you can put information about your developments in there. Hope this will work for you guys -Krylar ------------------ |

Hay man keep you cool ^_^ I like it for one. Ive just been fistling with what I may post. Im planing on changing the story line into a full book discriptions and all. Then im still writing the main story board so I just have alot on my mind. Oh ya and my shrink agreed that I shouldnt have a normal job. So he is writing up a thing to send to the dissability people. Still he didnt say whats wrong with me. Maybe it was the stories about my nightmares sence I was 5. I was wandering if anyone has herd of something simelar here. When I was 5 I had a dream where parents were grinding there children for fertulizer. I wont go more detaled then that. Might be more the what others want to read here. Anyways I have had dreams like that ever sence. Was wandering if anyone else knows of someone with the same probs. Oy I think im starting to like this place again. Thats very odd. Usely I leave and never come back. Heh maybe im growing up :P Angel |

Heh, we're growing up too Angel. Once again I want to thank you for the strong reprimand you gave us a while back. We were discussing a lot of things and giving a lot of bible verses about sin and pain and your problem, but I think few of us spent very much time actually praying about it. It really hit me that we need to put more emphasis on love and prayer rather than laying down formulas for how to solve a problem. I know for sure that I'm guilty of doing that at times. So yeah, thanks again, I don't think I'll ever forget that. (By the way, for those of you who are wondering what discussion I am reffering to, please look at the topic titled "Brain Scan?" under the "General discussions" category.) †Caleb† ------------------ |

I haven't used it yet, but I plan on using them *extensivily* for development logs for all TGS games.

Hiya, Don't get me wrong...I'm not irritated that nobody's posted! I just wanted to make sure that it was what you guys were looking for Looking forward seeing some stuff getting going in there Angel: Good to have you around with us again...and I'm glad you like the place! -Krylar ------------------ |

Thanks everyone for the comments. To tell you the truth one of the main reasons I like this place is cuz I havent been banned from it yet ^_^ So as long as that dosnt happen I will probably be around for some time. I am also looking at getting my story line copyrighted and then maybe I will post it here in strait text. It is sub-diveded into alot of htmls over a 100 pages now. So that would give yall something to read and then I could get feed back on what yall think. Im going to go read some of the other topics. Angel |
