HI,
I am ready to buy Game Studio after working with the trial version and some tutorials. I like the program. But I have a question about documentation. I see from the order form one gets the trial version, buys the product version and must get some kind of registration key? I downloaded the reference manual from the Game Studio site, but it is not very thorough nor does it explain a lot of functions Game Studio seems to have. When I buy the full version, is there a more thorough documentation available? For example, I have no idea what "bones" are and can't find a refernce to them for the model editor. Yet they must be useful and important. How would I be able to learn about them and how to use them? Would I have to find tutorials somewhere?
Thanks. I'm used to buying stuff and getting it on a CD or in a box with a printed or PDF manual, or at least some leads to books about the product and how to use it. I figured Game Studio, with its many vast features, must have some kind of similar documentation that I just don't know about yet. It seems to be sucvh a powerful and thorough program, I am hoping to find documentation on how to understand and use the many features. Otherwise, I'll be flying blind with the program, and won't know how to use so much of it.
Any suggestions? I did see a book offered on Amazon.com, and a video tutorial as well. Should I get these?
