T3D tutorials en masse
by Lukas Joergensen · in Torque 3D Professional · 05/13/2013 (11:50 pm) · 49 replies
This is a list of available T3D tutorials!
Downloading T3D from GitHub and compiling projects etc.
All tutorials that primarily covers working in C++
All tutorials that primarily covers working in TorqueScript
All tutorials covering designing art for T3D, importing it and placing it in the world
Tutorials on how to create terrains for T3D, and how to export/import terrains
Full-blown game tutorials
I've always thought that there is not enough focus on the plenty of tutorials you'll find here and there. It should really be highlighted more: "Oi! Torque3D has tutorials" it sets a high barrier that these tutorials are so hard to find aswell.
So here is a central place to find these tutorials.
Wanna help?
Submit a tutorial in the comments or if you've went through one of the tutorials then leave a rating and a "user-level" estimation in the comments, that would be a great help!
