Looking for some collaboration
May 13, 2009 07:47PM
Hey guys, I've been working on my game for a few months now, and I'm not getting any further with the game engine. Right now, I have a half-assed working 2-D version, but my goal is to make it 3-D. I've tried various engine ports, and can't get it to do what I want. So I've either got my coding wrong, or I don't fully understand the workings of GX. Most of my game is currently using GRRLIB, at least for the menu, which I would like to keep if possible. But I want the game itself to be in 3-D.

If you're not aware of the game I'm making, you can check out the Wiki page I added for it. It's got screenshots of my current Wii version, as well as images of the 3-D version (currently only runs on winblows). I'm not sure if I actually need some collaboration, or if I really just need help understanding how GX functions work....specifically how you go about combining A TON of vertices into a solid 3-D model. I've looked over a bunch of guides and example source on GX and 3-D, but I think it might be starting to go over my programming experience head, so to speak. I was able to get a few of the gl2gx examples to work, but once I started modifying them and putting my own stuff in, it stopped working.

By the way, the 3-D version I have working on windows is written in BlitzBasic, which I can't port over. But if I could port it, the game would be 90% finished...lol...(fail?) Unless someone knows how to port over Basic. (I saw a Basic lib in development, but I don't think it was ever completed)

Anyway, I'll stop rambling. If anyone would like to help, or even just give me some GX pointers...it would be much appreciated.

Just confirming, you just want tips and information on the GX library and not additional coders for the project?

For the moment, I think I'm just looking on information on GX. I might ask for additional coders in the future, depending on how far I can take it myself before I get stuck.

Try using [code.google.com]
note i am NOT the author, his email is somewhere in the code or on code.google i believe.
