help

Not me -- I can't draw a straight line with a ruler :mrgreen:

Lol any help or is this just a failing post.

What do you need our help with? Finding a college you can attend? Do a google search for colleges in your area then look at their available curriculum.

Do you want to do the graphics and modelling? Or do you want to do the programming? The spell casting is part of both. The model's animation would perhaps wave the character's hands around, while the programmer would be the one in charge of displaying the particles over the hands and creating the actual magic effect.

Well, I checked google for the last day. You guys are better using that Medi-search engine then me. But, back on topic, I want to do graphics for the game Like the Roads, Characters, House, Dungeons! All the good stuff, if you could give me a place where I can go in the United States anywhere that would be great!


Thank you

FullSail in Florida offers several game design courses. Game programming, graphics designer, musician, its all geared towards game development. Senior project would have you working with a team of ppl from each program to create a game. But, FullSail is a bit expensive, I think around $6k a quarter, and you'd have to be prepared to devote a lot of time. It's not unusual for the students to spend 10 hours a day at school.

There's also CCAD in Ohio; Columbus College of Art Design. I'm not sure what it costs, but I doubt its cheap. And its not easy to get in. I had a friend go there. You'll need a portfolio of work when submitting an application to them. Disney is known for getting several of its animators from there.

There's also a game design college in Washington which is suppose to be one of the best in the world and then Westwood college. I'm not sure what courses and program they offer as far as graphics design, but you might want to check them out.

Ah, FullSail. That's the college I was thinking of. I've read several articles about them, and it's supposed to be a very good college. What Phaelex said about FullSail is true; that is, it's very expensive, and students generally sleep during the few daylight hours that they have; often coding/drawing right through the night.

Furthermore, don't even think about it if you don't have a highschool diploma. They're picky as all high-level colleges are, so be prepared not to get accepted even if you do have the diploma and money.

Umm I am 15 and I spend almost 24 hours doing code. Coding is my life! Cout<< "My life";

Not to be nitpicky, but you don't really need to capitalize cout, and you kinda forgot a endl, which would be useful since it would actually flush the output buffer so that your string would be visible onscreen.

Sorry. :cheesy:

Somehow I kind of doubt you spend anywhere near 24 hours of coding per day. And it's not nearly as much fun coding when you have to remove memory leaks and other such nasties, which are inevitable when you write a C++ program any larger than a few lines of code.

And you have to really love coding; not just as a fad, but as something you can see your life developing around.
