hi im new here and im just wondering is there any tutorial or book about how to start making game with torque3d ? cos i didn't find one .
the tutorial that im looking for is the one that really teach how to create a complete game(simple one just to teach the basic idea how to use torque)
im not looking for something like "how to make dragon age" or " how to make grand theft auto" coz im not super stupid and i know those thing dont exist.
i've bought some books about scripting in torque but they dont really tell me how to apply stuff.
i am asking this because i had a hard time learning unity before until i had found that kind of tutorial for unity and after that i never had problem making my games ,so i think if the same thing exists for torque it would be extremely helpful for noob like me.
im no programmer but i know little bit of C++ and had experience making games with unity and flash.
i only need a guide to show me how to start :(
im really sorry if you think this is silly question , as i said before .. im noob
sorry for my english , english isn't my 1st language

the 2nd one will (Hopefully) come out monday with the new t3d 1.2 and this will (Supposedly) walk you through an entire game from begining to end. This looks like it will be a great resource once it is released. I hope it will tach me new things i can use.

Well 2 things. 1st is 3d game programming all in one. Great book! was designed for tge or tgea i cannot remember which. It has almost everything you need and almost everything still applies to t3d and I use this as a reference guide while im building my game!the 2nd one will (Hopefully) come out monday with the new t3d 1.2 and this will (Supposedly) walk you through an entire game from begining to end. This looks like it will be a great resource once it is released. I hope it will tach me new things i can use.

hmm... does this book contain a practical thing ? or it just explains "this function does this and that function does that bla bla" because most game engine book are like that and not really teaching how to apply to the real project.t3d 1.2 ?? is this a book ???

There's also the "Torque3D Script Manual" inside your downloaded documentation folder. You need to right click and "unblock" it, one of Microsoft's weird security issues that Windows doesn't tell you exists.

as a side note, this chm is the only one ive ever had to 'unblock', I suspect that this has 100% chance of being an authoring issue than a windows issue tbh

1.2 is the new soon to be released version of t3d, it comes uth additional documentation and a tutorial thats allegedly a fully playable FPS full game.as a side note, this chm is the only one ive ever had to 'unblock', I suspect that this has 100% chance of being an authoring issue than a windows issue tbh
