Hey all

I have seen a lot of stuff here about several of the same things and I am thinking about writing a few tutorials to help out the newbies and get them going on things.

Now my question to the channel is

1. Would anyone be willing to host such tutorials?
2. Would anyone be willing to do the html footwork for them? I have no interest in doing any web work, but would provide someone with all the text and images. I know I am lazy and busy and really don't want to even get into the html world. I work doing 3d for games all day long and teach max a few evenings a week. Html is not in my future.
3. Anyone even interested in such things?

There it is. Any interest let me know

Thanks

Maybe some lowpoly character topology.
Workflow in a detailing-up process.
Unwrapping?

There are already some great tuts like the jean darc out there when it comes for the basic modelling. But when doing such a tut ppl often get very locked to the specific workflow and dont develop a sense to improvise.

What kind of gaming are you into? I would appreciate timelapses as much as tuts, but I'm not sure if you're allowed to show what ur working on.

well...i dont know how to fade between 3 different cameras which fallow 2 different objects and then(the last camera) fallows both of them as they explode...

so that shouldn't take too long to do:applause:

Some good ideas

A low poly skinning thing could be cool. I was thinking about doing a guy from scratch

The camera thing could be cool, though it is a bit specific. Basicly it would be a video post tutorial which is easy enough

Egyt - I work at Microprose, owned by Infogrames. Currently I am working on Dungeons and Dragons Heroes for the console

The site for the game is at http://www.dungeonsanddragonsheroes.com

Sadly I can't use anything from that, but I could come up with some of my own stuff.

Keep the ideas coming
