Message: [QUOTE="KenaiPhoenix, post: 221059, member: 637256"] Pick something simple: if you want an epic GTA clone with epic videos with a homebrew port to the PS2... you will be stuck for a while. So pick something not that complicated make the first compromise you will do with your project (it happens to big corporation, it will happen to you). Pick the best tool for the job: There are many game engines out there, but some are better than others for certain things. If what you want to do is an RPG, you probably want RPG maker. Still unsure but you want and want something less restricted: go for Unity. They already got their shit together and there SO MUCH documentation/people posting about their problems that you will find answer to it quickly online. The asset store can help you a lot, even with the "free" ones like pathfinding, camera management, etc. AI as ASSISTANT: I cant stress this enough: no AI wont code for you, AI wont solve your issues, but it will be able to quickly give you some advice on how to proceed. Im not exaggerating that AI had me chasing my tail for hours until I realize it was talking crap. But I cant tell you much it changed my coding error speed when I discover it. I used to spent days or weeks (not a full time dev nor coder ofc) trying to find the reason behind some errors. Now I can have a solution or a pin point in seconds, but I have to think, never copy and paste. It can also help you with stuff like "I need a way to calculate the speed of a car, how can profesional do it?" And for 3d model: Blender, there is no best way arround it. But where to start? How to learn this tool? Some years ago I find an incredible good guy who does quick. He goes to the point and let you know enough to get your feet and start experimenting yourself. But it is way better than many tutorials that are 25 minutes long only to know that you just needed to press ALT+n to flip normals. His name is Royal skies: [MEDIA=youtube]Q9Sh5yLcjGA[/MEDIA] I suggest you to reserve a weekend and see all the videos of blender if you are serious. And lastly, dont give up. Project like a 4k fan art requires times and there are full of misteps and frustation. So it is gamedev. But nothing worthy comes free, just keep working in it. [/QUOTE]
