    I'm tired of playing games, I want to learn how to make them!

    Professor Hubert Farnsworth - That question is less stupid but, you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    He never said "Eve's graphics are so new and cool". He said they were amazing. And they are. That's his opinion. Not sure what your purpose was in pointing out the age of the graphics engine ( which WAS just updates with the latest expansion ) since the game came out in what...2002? Of course the graphics aren't brand new. Neither are DAoCs, AOs, or any OTHER game that's been out for a couple years. So to call them "old" ( which is a subjective term in and of itself ) served absoultely NO purpose.

    To the OP I have played Eve on and off since it started ( in fact since Beta phase 5 ). It IS a great game. The ONLY reason why I am not playing now is that I can't keep myself involved in ANY MMO for more than 6 months at a time before I take some time off and do a lateral shift. IF you are going to play get yourself in a GOOD corp. Having a group of friends triples the entertainment value of that game ( since PvP by yourself is really quite hard ).

    "What is it I have against Microsoft, you ask? Well, you know how you feel when you wait for an MMO to come out and when it does you feel like you've paid to play it's beta test for another 6-9 months before anything even thinks of working the way it should? Being a network engineer you feel that way about anything Microsoft puts out."

    I know how you feel. I am just about to start studying for my BS in Game Art and Design with a minor in Programming. Yeah, a lot of people say forego the formal schooling and just  get involved in the Mod community since MOST developers started there anyway but I figure it can NEVER hurt to have a degree ALSO. Besides, I am bored, have lots of time, and need something to do. Since the Art Institute Online offers everything online I figured what the hell.

    The game was released on May 6th, 2003.  You'd think someone playing since beta would know that. image

    Until you cancel your subscription, you are only helping to continue the cycle of mediocrity.

    Beta, however, started in 2002. Which was using the same graphics engine until they updates in the expansion. Sorry for not specifying there...

    lol BetrayalX there are quite a few game making programs out there such as Game Maker and RPG Maker 2000. These programs allows you to make 2D games (3D games if you're really good) and will give you a feel of how games are made.

    Actually there is a Free Mmorpg program maker in Beta called Kaneva. The Chronical is using this exact Program to create their game ironically. It can be used to import chars give them inventorys, levels. create maps, using FPS and or mmorpg type games with level based systems. its totally free to download and you can even host up to 30 people on your own mmorpg free, after 30 you must pay them to host a larger server for more people.

    A speaker from their company recently came to our college(TODAY ACTUALLY) at our Computer lab building to talk to us about their company. He even featured the chronical and showed us some ingame features of their program used to create the chronical. Well anywhos the site is http://kaneva.com/

    Wow, that's really cool. It could lead to people making those great games that we need so bad but the big boys are too scared to make.

    EDIT: I just read the site and it seems that you will need a program such as 3ds max as well.

    EVE's graphics are pretty good, but still i don't like paying money to play MMO's.
