INTRO:
I am an absolute beginner with ogre so i wanted to start a group of beginners or people that know a little about ogre ((NOTE: this is just a beginners group so no pay or anything)).

THE PROJECT:
The game is going to be like Silent Hill, Obscure and Halo thrown together.
It is still in the planning stages so any ideas you have would be nice.

WHO I NEED:
TEXTURE MAKERS ((lol))
SCRIPTORS
MODELERS
ANIMATORS
AND ALL THE OTHER THINGS

ABOUT THE GROUP:
This is more like a club then anything. You are not hired or paid or anything so you can be any age i guess.... anyways. Its for beginners so we can all learn together.BUT if anyone has any idea on copyrighting or anything we might could sell a game or two lol.

ME
I am 14 years old about to be 15. My email is stevenmusick17@gmail.com

HOW TO JOIN
Just email me telling me your name , age, and what you want to do in the group. I will reply with further instructions on it and such.

Sorry, but i think - for first project - the best thing is to do something like tetris game or some kind of minesweeper (or lines). It's good thing to know - game development is so hard process. Make games from minimum - to maximum

For a first project, you shouldn't need more than one artist (As coder art sucks) and a coder, namely yourself. Everything above that is far out of the scope.

A good scoped game is something like Monkey Ball/Marble madness. It covers everything, nothing is too hard or takes too long and it's a cool game type. I get all my students to make one and they manage fine. You might want to consider C# with 'MOgre'. I have an unfinished guide on the MOgre wiki page (linked from the main ogre wiki) which starts you on a marble game.
