What will be the Torque Specific Seminars at IGC '03
by Anthony Rosenbaum · in General Discussion · 09/13/2003 (10:14 pm) · 7 replies
I missed out on Joe's animation seminar last year. Seeing that I 'll be attending this year I was hoping there will be some similar Torque specific seminars.
I would love to hear about the future for GarageGames, Torque 2.0. Not to mention techniques to improve the existing head, such as Shaders, Network Optimizing Techniques, and possible some Q & A to discuss with the engine's developers.

In regards to the exporter session we are going to demonstrate many of the common errors that people encounter and how to solve them using "Weapon" models. We are using weapon models simply because they are very simple shapes for everyone to understand and wrap their heads around, though we could have used any model type since the errors encountered are the same across them all.
If you have additional questions afterwards, then let us know after the exporter session.

And, of course, you're going to be surrounded by a lot of really knowledgeable Torque users... It's not like you can't take someone knowledgeable out to lunch and pick their brain. :)

We intentionally kept the Torque specific content to a small percantage of the conference both this year and last. The name of the conference is IndieGamesCon, not TorqueDevelopCon. But, Ben is right, you will not find a place on the planet with more Torque knowledge per square foot.-Jeff Tunnell GG
