Hello,
I am attempting to make a fan game of harry potter which will be dissimilar to the movies, it is not based on the movies, but the books although some scenes will be modeled around the movies.

The game will in the end cover all 7 books, and give the player more freedom than before in harry potter games.

So far i have only just began the modeling for the first book, and the first level, which will be Diagon Alley.

I would like some C&C (if possible) on my first start on the outside of the pub "The Leaky Cauldron".
It's not much at the moment, but this post will be updated regularly with new screens.

Oh my thrash music, I haven't read the first Harry Potter book since third grade, now I'm in twelfth grade, do the math lol. I actually read the first, second, and half of the forth book but it was really just for the sake of reading them, more or less they were read for school projects. Nowadays I'm all about real accounts of American war and the occasional sci-fi lol.

I always hear the Harry Potter games are sh*t so it'd be nice for the fans to have something worth playing.

Can't say much about the level as I don't know what it is lol.

Anyways good luck with it.

Thanks, and i agree the movie-based games are terrible, although the order of the phoenix is better, but they are all very short and all based upon the film version (which is shorter and different to the book)
In this game i am going to make all the locations available to explore.
And hopefully have a very good spell casting system.

Do you have more than some untextured blocks made in med?

Well that kinda sounds too big for a game. You would need a giant team and a lot of time to make such a big game.

Do you even have a concept or something? I mean a real one, not "well i wrote done some parts".

I don't want to sound like an ass or something, but it might be better te be a bit more realistic about such huge projects smirk

Your not trying very hard wink

And i do have a plan for the game, first of all i have broken it down into the different films, then under that i have sub-sections of each (characters, locations, etc.). In here i have references for everything i will need, every location image i can find, from most angles, pictures from the movies.

I also have all the current films and all the books to reference from.

The game will be split, it will start with the first year and when you have completed all the tasks for that year it will do part of the summer then start on the second year.
Yes it is a big project, but no it won't need a giant team, its not going to be next-gen graphic quality, just a fan game.

I am hoping to finish the first level of the game within a few days, after i make some more concepts.

Any other worries?

He means it will be very hard to try to pull off such a game in a small amount of time without a big team. Any game can be made by one or two people, it just takes alot more time than having 4 or 5. He is right though, for your plans it could take you quite a few years to do all that you plan on doing. Just one important question, how big is your team?

At the moment just me doing the modeling, but i now have someone willing to help do the texturing and i can probably get a few people when i need them.

Another plan is to sell some of my models on turbosquid when they are done to make some money to get freelancers if i need them.

I Also have someone who may be making me some concept art.

And "small amount of time"? I never set a time span, i believe that the first book's game will take about 3-4 months of hard work to complete a working demo, although making Hogwarts castle is where the time will be spent mainly.
