Another Tutorial Question
I am now able to access all the tutorials. However, they seem to be more examples then actual tutorials showing me how you did things.

Did I miss something or did you include these so we could break apart the codes? I was expecting more of a "Start by hitting this button, then turn it like this, and so on."

Thank You,

Re: Another Tutorial Question
Sorry for the confusion, I guess I didn't explain myself very well.

I was thinking that the tutorials were either video tutorials or step by step tutorials showing how to use the various tools in the engine. Not just various files showing demo's and examples of projects.

Not that I am dissappointed! I am just pretty new to all this so I am not sure what I am supposed to do with the file once I open it and get it running.

Let me say all in all I am very impressed with the engine.

Make sense?

Re: Another Tutorial Question
yeah smile but this engine is more to programming than clicking in the tools smile
the basic stuff is done in Mesh Editor (importing meshes and materials),
then having those data you can put in the World Editor
and after that you code the game in visual studio according to tutorials.

more or less this is how it goes smile

Re: Another Tutorial Question
Wow! Just a note to say that I am really impressed with the esenthel game engine. As a beginner, I was looking for a drag and click appraoach to game creation. I soon learned that the programs that allow that are vary basic and you have to "code" in order to do anything different. BUT, SINCE THEY WERE DESIGNED FOR DRAG AND CLICK, THEY GAVE ALMOST NO SUPPORT TO THE CODING. Plus, everything is done in the background! SO I really never knew what was going on. With this engine, I actually see what is happening! Plus, I am beginning to appreciate writing code.

Anyway, just wanted to give you a word of encouragement! I am going to keep playing with this engine but I am leaning toward using it to create my first game.
