hi,
i have a brilliant idea (well kinda). You know that open source FPS someone is doing? Well I'd like to start up another one, but with a GTA remake. There are no limits to what you can do with this game - just keep to the general crime theme. I have a wishlist:

1) Some nice models of gangstas, no limits on what you can do. try to keep the poly count low-mid.

2) a really cool map - typical GTA style, maybe a little different - it is up to the maker of the map.

3) nice guns - lots of nice guns, must be real. The sound that will go with that would be prefered.

4) music - typical gangsta style, DJ style too.

5) a good animator - some one that will animate for me - I dont have a clue about animation.

6) more updates to come...

This will be open source so anyone can give suggestions or add in ideas. There will be regular updates on my site:

http://s0l1dsoft.tk (not finished but I will soon have a section on this project)

once again, anyone is allowed to add in snippets (self running is preferred so all I have to add in is #include blahblahblah.dba), graphics, models, ect. ect. if there are any questions please do not hesitate to ask here or email me. Thank you and goodbye for now.

@s0l1dsnak3123

I'm afraid it's not that easy. That Open Source FPS is run my Hamish Mchaggis, who can't rely on other to make all the code, because no matter what anyone gives him, he has to be able to understand what they have given him, and he has to convert it into code that will fit into his game, otherwise it most likely wont work. This is the same with your game, you would essentially have to be able to make a GTA game from scratch yourself, otherwise all the codes given to you wont work together.

The only way you wont get flamed for osting something like this, is by proving that you actually can make this game, not the full game, but if you make a good start on the engine, then others will know that it's worthwhile taking part in this, and they wont flame you.

I suggest that you make a start on your game, and show it to people, then invite people in, rather than letting anyone do anything, you have to have relyable people to help out.

The Pro-Noob Anti-Boob Justice League is the exact opposite of the Anti-Noob Justice League. I just used their graphic and made the cat smile rather than frown like the ANJLs cat... I also changed the position of the eyes to look at whoever is looking at the cat. If you click on the signature in this message its linked to my profile where I talk about what I consider a "boob/stupid".

We're totally pro-newbie.

You just go to your profile and change it. Add an image tag in the signature like you add images to messages. You have to have a place to host your image too.

anyway

does boob mean something different in britain or something? cas being anti boob is usually frowned upon if you're a guy...


and seriously, quit taking that anjl thing seriously. its almost like a counterstrike clan now, except that havent killed anyone (yet)

peace

ps
a gta remake in dbc is a bit impractical noting the limitations of it.

The real meaning of boob is: A stupid or foolish person; a dolt.

When it comes to women... i'm pro-boob.

Oh God...the acronyms...the '1337 sp34k'....AHHHH!!

What happend to the good ol' days when people could type as if they were talking...and not abbreviating every other word. Nothing screams immature more than abbreviating every other word in the sentence....

Guys when your on a forum, please, for the love of everyone else, avoid using sentences such as

Quote: "u r totally k3wl"


As many of the readers here detest such forms of typing. If you want to earn respect amongst the community, try to type in full, non-abbreviated sentences and avoid using "IM Talk" when on a forum.

Thanks, Happy Holidays

With grammer and spelling like that? How can we resist.
No one honestly pointed a gun into your crotch and said "Join the cat group and work on this game".

I'll be more than happy to do some coding on this project. I'll just do anything you can't be bothered to

Add me to MSN if you like... If you need proof of my '1337 m4d sk177z ', then I'll show you this thar FPS & that music-graphics demo I've been working on. I just upgraded to full DBP 5.9 (christmas, yay) from a trial 5.7, which broke both of the programs. I'm quite annoyed about that, really, but I'm going to be trying to fix it this afternoon.

Oh well.

Code snippets may not actually be that helpful, as they have to work with the engine. It's no good if we have to rewrite your code just to get it to work with ours...

And with regard to that, I ought to get working on the engine. Like, right now.

sorry i havent been on the forums for a while, i was away shopping all bloomin day at homebase gettin taps and such for a renavation... anyway @DB newbie - i am doing the ai and the 2D graphics and any other odds and ends, I am also advertising the game and im running the whole kit 'n' kaboodle too, so as you can see - i am very busy. @ blanky - yes i aggree so strike that.

All media donations are accepted. However if anyone is stuck on a certain problem anyone can help. And dont forget that this is opensource and free for all - so if anyone here who wants to notify of a bug or a good idea just email me or blanky (if he doesnt mind). My email is s0l1dsnak3123@hotmail.com I hope i have answered anybody's questions.

Here is the todo list that i hope to achieve soon (like by the end of january):

1) add accelleration and decelleration of the model.
2) encorporate a storm engine
3) encoroporate a night and day engine
4) try to add buildings
5) Add collision
6) add collisions for edges of map
7) add a music searcher
8) add loading bars between main menu and the game
9) add an in game pause menu
10) make save and load functions
11) add character models

Then i will rease an alpha of the car part of the game. After that its onto the character parts of the game...

p.s @ DBnewbie - I said at the start of the post that it is a GTA remake. If you want more info it'll be all about a turf struggle which inncludes the mysterious death of your gang leaders girlfriend. This results in a huge claash of wills between you and your gang leader when you find that your brother killed her.
