Please, help the beginner :)
« on: October 11, 2006, 05:01:11 PM »

Hello, Everybody,

I decided to make my own adventure game for diploma in my university. I am studying "E-communication and digital media".
 
But, unfortunately, I have a problem with Wintermute Engine. I can't catch the idea, if you know, what I mean. Help files are very big and, as far as I know, they relate to making game with an actor. And I would like to make some adventure game like "Dead City" - without an actor, without animations - only old-school point&click graphic adventure.
 
So I have a big request for you. Could you make accessible some of your game files for example? Some source with one, maybe two scenes? I mean files editable in WME. I would like to see, how the scenes are builded, how inventory works etc. I can perfectly learn with examples. Learnig theory is much harder for me. :(

Could somebody does it for me?
 
Best regards,
Marcin

did you study the demo project files included in the wme distribution? you can build on them and if you don't want actor, just ut there actor.Active = false;

good way to start. And welcom aboard.

Thanks! I will try!

It's funny - I am working for big game developer City Interative. I created scenario for Starmageddon II: Project Freedom. I am co-producer of first Polish adventure game published 13 years ago. And still I am a beginner, because I am not a programmer. :(

But I really want to learn WME, because I love 1st person adventure games and want to create them!

Rocco posted a fully-featured 1st person game demo with sources here, i.e. exactly what you're looking for. But unfortunately the link doesn't  seem to work anymore :(
