I asked grim the question to make a follow up point about his answer to it. By him not giving an answer, I can only assume that he doesn't know, or is only here by habit/to keep in touch with friends. That is fine, but really, its fairly obvious to everyone here that we don't get much done. People stop making games to make engines for other people to make games with, and people stop making engines to make super engines for people to make super games with, and then people stop making those because they realize they will never finish. While these features are great, to me they are in the same catagory as micro optimization. Get the other things done first, because nobody will say "oh I want to play that game because you can turn off the map name if you're a mod!". After all, we make these games for the players. @Giaken, sorry for hijacking your topic. If a mod wants to split them that would be great. |

I started programming with Mirage because it was a fun way to learn to program and because I enjoyed creating the maps. It wasn't until a few years after I started developing that I actually started to release shit. |

Yes, that makes sense, I used the wrong words. What I meant was that if your advertising an engine, your making it for who you are advertising to, ie the developers. And if you are advertising a game, you are also making it for who you are advertising to, ie the players. If you are going to advertise to someone who you don't care about (like how you advertised essence .3, and just stopped developing it) you really mess up things for people. So if you are making something just for yourself, keep it to yourself until its finished. |

I want to develop an engine just to upset people like Labmonkey.. Anyone with me? Advertising an engine isn't promising anyone anything.. It's simply showing off your work and what kind of things you've programmed... I post a screenshot of something doesn't mean I'm going to release it, stop releasing your anger on us because we didn't release our pro engines for kids like you. |

When you say, "I am going to release it soon", you imply that you are going to release it soon.

When you tell someone that you are going to do something, people expect you to do it. |

This is about all of the times on msn/forums that people have told me and others that such and such engine will be the greatest every and will come out next week. We all stop what we are doing and make preperations, then the engine gets delayed a week, then another week, then another week, and all of our games die and all of our time was wasted. Asphodel engine was supposed to come out in like march... I didn't mean to completely hijack giaken's topic. If matt can split the topics that would be great. |
