I am a newbie to Maya 6.0. My aim is to develop a game. I know that Maya is the righ software to begin with. I am a programmer and so much interested in developing a game in Maya. I would really appreciate if someone can give me the overview of developing game in maya. I have so many questions and no answers at all. First of all to develop a game Is maya only enough? -Do I require any other softwares along Maya? -Do I need development kit along Maya? -How would I make maps in Maya or how to connect two maps in Maya? -What resources I would require to develop a game in maya? - Can we even make whole game in Maya?
These are just few of the questions that I have. I would really appreciate if some experienced people guide me on this. Thank you in Advance. Regards, Faisal
The question is a bit too wide to be answered well.
Depends on what you mean make whole geme in maya. If you just intedn it tor un in may afor the fun of it like lmeltris then sure it can be doen with alot of limitations.
Usualy tough maya is just one part of the toolset. Namely just the tool for generating the 3d resources to your game eingene. Jsut like photosop would be for the 2d resources.
From what I have heard Maya is the way to go for your 3D resources. With the research I have done I don't believe you will be able to make a really good game just using Maya. I am not sure how depth the prgramming gets in maya as well. I also thought C++ was the main language game developers used. You should do a bit more research and email me anytime:)
cant see 2000$ for a game being aterribly big hit
