Your experience
Has anyone else had experience in game dev? (Wether that be modding game content, creating a fully custom mod, or a complete game)
For me, i've been modding Halo since it's released doing the whole pistols firing rocket mods, and custom warthog skins.. meta swaps and the like. Then moved onto Halo Custom Edition, where we were given the "awesome power" of HEK (Halo Editing Kit). Basically, we were given next to no information on how to use it, and as a community many hours were spent hacking and learning how to use it properly. Lately i've been back and forwards dealing with the 'new' community for H2V, but the engine is just as lacking as the original BLAM! engine was. And that's without mentioning how they killed the editing kit  Currently i'm working on a complete game; which I will be doing a full write up on when I get around to finishing it! |

i did a diploma in games development... done a fair bit of AI work as part of my uni studies as well. written a couple of small games.. tech demo's for the most part, but i wrote a nifty 3D pacman game a few years ago.
unfortunately, in aus, games dev sucks balls. **** pay for a ****ton of hours, and not exactly a glamour career path in front of you.

I'm doing a Game Dev diploma now. I've helped work on 2 Stargate mods, one for HL1 and began one for HL2.. but both were cancelled due to legal action being threatened by MGM.
I'm starting to write a 2D game engine in C#... completely software rendered. chem
