need help!!!!

need to know how to make an 2d mmo game,and something else wy did i buy A7 cormercial and it say that i have 30 DAYS LEFT!!!!

first off. choose what will you use for MP. 3dgs native MP system or some plugins like ANet(i use it) or GSTNet. then you be sure you have enough experience with 3dgs and that you're able to do something like that.
then start drawing 2d art/stuff or hire some 2d artist and start coding.

btw i cant tell you how to make a game like that. if you're experienced enough with 3dgs you should know it by yourself

yea but what about the 30 days left and my money

hm... try with reinstalling 3dgs?

thanks but i din't relly buy it i gat in some were but i think i downloaded the demo but i was thinking that it was the free full version ha and i want it for free because im 12 idont get 20 bucks untill chrismas so i suck

this is very unfortunate...
You have 29 days left to make the MMO game, and sell it.
Then you should have the 20 bucks.

you didn't buy it and you won't make a 2d mmo game, and probably no 20$ will be made either

you are 12. fortunately the world does not revolve around you. Regardless of this, you can't use your age as an excuse to do/get anything.
Try walking into a bank and telling them you are 12, need $899 to make a 2d MMO.

How are there so many idiots like this finding there way to the 3dgs forum? Honestly... I see threads like this atleast once, maybe twice a week.

well i started with 3dgs when i was 13 or 14 but i wasnt like him. i was learning and learning by myself. i had times when i wanted to give up but then i read that when learning about programming you MUST be persistent. so i think he could learn it, if he's persistent and willing to learn that - honestly i think he isnt but hey, maybe he can...maybe

the point is, he might be too young but as long as he has a great will do learn about programming and 3dgs he could do it...

@victor_crispin - but you wont do anything with asking questions and questions on this forum...go and take yourself a lite-c workshop and start learning

i'm quite sure that this is forbidden to talk about here, right? so better change your post and say something worth of saying, not this

thanks guys for your help

You're being too ambitious too early on. Get some pocket money, buy the regular latest version of 3DGS and a book (that can be purchased on this site) called The Official Guide to 3D-Game-Studio.

I warn you NOW.. Game design is NOT for the impatient. It is NOT a cakewalk! It takes time and effort. That is the first thing that you must come to terms with before pursuing game-design. You will not become a millionare in your first year of game production. You will not be able to make best-selling games without a good team. You WILL, however.. Be able to express yourself with it.

Game design is an art, not a way to make money. Mentalities such as this are what seperate games such as American Mcgee's Alice from games like that Hannah Montana version of guitar hero. It seperates good games from cheap knock-offs.

You are currently thinking too big, an overambitious project is destined for faliure, why? It's simply out of your reach.

What you should do first is throw away the mentality of "I wanna make a game". It's too ambitious at this early stage, and it is rather blank.

Some thoughts you might want to include:

"What genre is this game going to be"
"What type of setting is the game in?" (fantasy, war, etc)
"What mood are we trying to give to immerse the player in this virtual world?"

"What will it's key features be?"

This question is where you need to be VERY careful, you don't want to be too ambitious. Settle for something that is at or around your level. And pick it together one small piece at a time, remember.. World of Warcraft wasn't made in a week. It took years to make, test and and appeal to. If you are impatient, you will never be sucessfull in game-creation.

Also, you don't to add too many little features that have little to no relevance to the actual game. This is known as 'feature-creeping' and is best avoided.

An example is World of Warcraft (The Lich King expansion), they added new veichles (which turned out to be mechanical). The idea of an unpainted metal motorbike did not fit in with the frozen tundras of Northrend. They just wanted something new, but added little relevance to the actual atmosphere. Basically, if you are going to add a feature; add one that is relevant to the look and feel of the game.

You don't see goblins in Runescape with Uzis, now do you?

victor, there're a lot of free engines out there like Irrlicht for example. With a free compiler and ide (search for code::blocks and mingw) you can create your own game for free, but be aware that developing a game takes a lot of patience and time. 3DGS is the easy way for beginners but you have to pay.

Man 2013 And somehow I landed back here . Sorry for the trollish post. Btw I did fallow some of your advice and I did take the initiative to learn at least a couple of programming languages. Sorry for late response and impulsive post.

It's only 4 3/4 years late, don't worry.
