Hi everyone, I've been wanting to make a game for a while, then I stumbled upon TGC, here is my quick test in Max, this is the type of aesthetic that I want and I am reasonably happy.
I have a few questions
- in time can we paint out our textures onto the landscape/terrain
- can we add our own grass/trees into the auto populate part?

Mod Edit to show Video ..

Nicely done !!

Hi davekirk. That's the big question will they allow us to get our own unique mark on the game.
I can't answer that except TGC

I do like what parts you have created though looks like it could be really good. However as we all know we all can tell instantly its made with max so i am on your side to get our own trees textures and grasses

Fingers crossed and keep up the good work

@ DaveKirk

No for the March release, but I don't lose my hopes.
Customize is the key, not because you hide the game engine, nothing wrong with this; but because it makes the game unique.
TGC already knows it, and GG does, so, no reason to don't do it in GGMax.

Hi

Thanks for the comments, I really hope we can add our own textures in time, as well as use the tree/vegetation with our own stuff rather than having to manually place them. You guys are right, it will always look like a GG until we can customise these parts.
Is there a HUD builder for Max?

Hello,
yes there is a basic Hud Generator here https://tgcstore.net/product/36249

There are a couple of Tools for MAX and Classic you can find information in this forum section https://forum.game-guru.com/board/31

Yes as 3com says more tactfully to make our games unique

But we will all have the same everything until we can access and manipulate world and other out of the box parts.

After the concerns on vid 81 i have accepted the fate where ever it may go. And i will just accept that my game will only be partly unique as in the same environment as everyone else with what's given.

But on the up i can place My own trees as well and i guess i will have to place all over the 5km map to Make it less obvious and more My world.
And it is looking absolutely fantastic
And the first time They have got it right. I also think they know this too.
But they need to be be able to protect their software and their add ons.
They do right with character creator
And making it a good way amd that we will be able to add our own extras.
They should protect their world as well. But they need to be allowing usnto change things also

Anyway i do love what you are doing amd keep it up

@GraPhiX
do you know whether it is possible to replace the terrain and grass DDS files with our own?

Yes it is possible

@GraPhiX but at the moment we can only have sprites for grass?

Night time test - I kinda like how it looks in the night

Just a quick zombie AI test, they are pretty much default other than lowered health
