A 3d Model is a three-dimensional object you put into a video game. The most common model is that of the player in the game. But it can also be almost anything else you can imagine. Here is an overview of how you make 3D models for video games.

When you make a video game most of the design is done the same way an architect would design a city or a building. It is all very static. You define the shapes of the objects then you insert textures and colors. But this is just the static world that everything happens inside. The real adventure of a video game comes when the models are inserted into the game. And if you are learning how to make a video game using some of the more common software like Reality Factory you don’t have a whole lot of options for making models. This is where 3D modeling software comes in.

To Make a 3D Model you need some 3D modeling software

There are many different modeling software applications and most of them are very suitable for making models for games. Some of the more popular packages are:

Maya – A high end 3d modeling package, which is used by professionals and often, used to make movies. It also has a scaled down version which is more affordable3Ds Max – Another high end modeling package that is very popular within the game making industryLightwave – This is a professional package at a reasonable cost. If you are serious about 3d modeling this is a good optionBlender – This is a free open source software package that has some amazing abilities. If you have no budget this is the way to go.Milkshape 3D – Very inexpensive and easy to use 3d modeling package. They have a nice 30-day free trial period which gives you then chance to learn and test before you buy.

How is a 3D model made?

There are a few different paths to making a model for a video game. Here is a generic overview of the process steps.

You design a skeleton of your model. Think of this as the bones and joints underneath. You won’t see any of this when you play the game but these bones and joints are very necessary because they tell the game how the model moves. Exactly the same way your bones and joints define how you move.You design a colorless and texture-less skin around the bones and joints. This is how your model will look in shape.You color in the skin to get the exact look of the model. This is the details of the model. You make the final look here by putting in eyes, clothes, or anything else. You define how your model will behave. You tell the model what joints will move in what directions. This is a big time saver with modeling software because you just tell it the beginning and ending locations and the software draws in all the middle steps. You export the model into a format that video game design software understands. 3D modeling software has this export tool built in and most programs will export to a wide variety of formats for lots of game development software.

Making 3D video game models is not a really hard process and in no time you can make some nice models for your games. But, modeling is a profession that some people devote full time efforts to. If you want to get really good at modeling you are going to have to put in many hours of practice and you are going to have to develop your talents as an artist.

Becoming a Video Game Expert
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Hu_Thomas]Hu Thomas

Gaming is one of the best pastimes for many people. Some people play for enjoying enjoyment, and others play as a hobby. Gaming is a rage amongst youngsters. There are various gaming sites where gaming competitions are organized and anyone interested can participate and win exciting prizes. To become a gaming expert and be a part of such gaming competitions, one needs to know a lot about gaming terminologies, should have a good knowledge of a wide range of games and various gaming systems.

There are no such colleges which offer a course in becoming a video game expert. Anyone can become an expert, as it just needs natural skills and the ability to understand the tricks, which will help in solving problems while playing. As one progresses with the game it becomes interesting to solve the barriers. One needs to keep themselves updated with the latest techniques that are introduced in the gaming world.

Gaming becomes a serious business for some and they would like to consider knowing more about becoming a video game expert. For this purpose, taking classes in gaming programming and learning more about software development will be a good option. When the individual finally decides to pursue this vocation, then, there are various institutes which offer some diploma courses in game programming. You can develop self learning by subscribing to gaming magazines, joining clubs that focus on gaming, participating in online discussion groups, etc.

In today’s competitive world, not many will favor an individual’s decision in becoming a video game expert at home. This status is hardly appreciated and the individual will have to face strong criticism. However, criticism should not be taken personally as it comes when the individual is perceived as an expert.

Video games have inspired many people to spend hours in front of their computers. There are various types of games where one can get involved like puzzles, cards, racing, etc, and this interest can present an opportunity of becoming a video game expert. To develop skills, one needs to play a lot of games and get degrees in computer programming or graphic designing which will help the person in designing and 3D modeling. This skill is required by many video game development companies.

The individual should decide an area of specialty, whether he wants to be a programmer or an artist. The game developer field is also very competitive, so the individual should get an internship at any reputed organization, and also try gaining some experience at smaller companies. A video game is developed with the help of a designer, an artist and writers using their creative ideas, which is a must for the game to be successful. It gives an opportunity to interested people to collaborate with other gaming experts and fight to win the title of a video game expert. People interested in playing also get an opportunity to win cash prizes per hour on the basis of their performances. Ultimately, if an individual finds himself too involved into gaming, he can consider himself a prime candidate towards becoming a game expert.

The Surprising Benefits of Video Games

The Surprising Benefits of Video Games
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Morgan_Hamilton]Morgan Hamilton

In my opinion, video games are more than just addicting toys that keep people from being responsible, productive members of society. However, many people seem to disagree with me. A few days ago, I watched a show that covered the shootings by two eleven year-olds of students and teachers at a remote grade school in Arkansas.

There are various theories as to why these two students committed this unspeakable crime. The theory of too much influence on the part of video games was included in this hour-long documentary. Theories that pointed to music, the parents, and the social construct at large were included as well.

The emphasis of the theory that video games were the culprit was focused on the violent games that reward violence. The problem is that the analysts did not consider that the Middle Eastern countries have slaughtered each other in decade- and century-long battles even if these games virtually do not exist in those countries.

I think that the benefits of video games should also be addressed. Experts consider  games that require dexterity, linear thinking, and that make other complex demands on coordination, eyes, and the brain as useful in the staving off of such progressive illnesses as Alzheimer’s.

In this day and age, children can get video games in the classroom, as auxiliary materials, or in learning environments after school. These games are designed based on the rationale that video games can help with skills such as memorizing, remembering, inducing, deducing, recognizing patterns, solving problems, and mapping.

There are also other benefits that children can get out of video games. For example, these games also contribute to perseverance skills, socialization skill, and motor skills. These games have also been found to assist in assuaging the difficulties and challenges of attention deficit disorder. They are also useful for elevating the esteem and increasing the motivation and drive of children.

Video Game Testing - How To Become A Video Game Tester

Before you go out and start looking for video game tester jobs there are a few things you need to know.  The work that a game tester does is far and away from being easy.  However, if you do have a true passion for video games (you should if you are reading this) then it could be an rewarding career for you.  Becoming a game tester will also allow you to get your foot in the door at a game company. This is important as it may open up other possibilities for you in the game industry.  Other jobs such as game designer or game programmer are even better careers.  You should still plan on going to school to learn these things.  But you do not have to wait until you finish school to start testing games.

One of the first things you can do is participate in public beta tests for popular video games.  This will allow you to become familiar with what a game tester actually may do on a daily basis.  The great thing about beta testing is that it can be done from home in your spare time.  As a bonus, often you will be able to get the final version of the game for free or at a reduced price. You may also be able to work at home for some game tester jobs but it’s not extremely common for this to happen, certainly not for a full time employment.  It is possible to find some part-time work at home testing games.

As a video game tester you must have in depth knowledge of the operating systems or consoles that you will be testing on.  Game companies really only want to deal with people that know what they are doing.  Your main role as a beta tester is to find and report bugs and game defects.  You will have to provide a detailed report on how to reproduce each problem you find.  If you can not make a bug reproducible then you are wasting everyones time.  Strong written and verbal communication is a must.  As a game tester it is very important to be able to communicate effectively.

Remember that in life there is no easy way through whatever path you choose to take.  This does not mean that being a video game tester won’t  be fun.  It is just hard work.  If video games are really your thing then get out there and go for it.  Just remember that it’s not a walk in the park like some would have you think.

Are Video Games Good For You?

โดย trackingvideo@sanook.com ใน Articles เมื่อ กรกฎาคม 14th, 2009 |  คอมเมนท์ที่นี่ »

Do video games rot your brain or do they build up your brain? There is so much controversy around this matter that we decided to try to put it to rest. Within this article, you will find not only our opinion, but some facts on what video games really do for you.

Are Video Games Good For You?
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Melanie_Fitzpatrick]Melanie Fitzpatrick

Oh of course, most kids would much rather play video games than go outside and of course, do their homework and perhaps that is why children are becoming smarter in this day and age. Believe it or not, video games build your intelligence, it’s a proven fact. When a child or anyone else plays a video game, they are giving their brain a pretty good workout and at the same time, they are exercising their thumbs with the joystick.

Children are navigating their way through a virtual world that is mysterious. In video games, kids have to figure out the rules of the game and the goals they need to achieve to learn. For hours, the kids work at solving puzzles that are nested within these games. Yep, today’s culture is defiantly making us smarter. “Telescoping” it is called. Gamers have to deal with their immediate problems while they keep their long-term goals in their mind. “Probing.” Probing is referring to the strategic thinking and complex problem solving of video games.

Playing a video game is a parallel to working on a science problem. Gamers are just like students in a laboratory, they must come up with that hypothesis. For example, they have to find the quest in WoW.” With this, they engage in action by hunting for that quest and completing it. The gamers will be discovering if their hypothesis is true or false. If they are not able to complete this quest, then they will be revising their hypothesis. Playing video games is a fundamental to learning.

In conclusion…there is nothing wrong with playing video games. We could just go back to the old days, take video games and all that away and stop using your brain. Think about it: Run around in a park or exercise the brain…

The Author of this article would like for you to check this site out http://gamersrevenue.webs.com/ as you will be able to watch videos of games.

Swapping Video Games As a Route to Cheap Gaming

Swapping Video Games As a Route to Cheap Gaming
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=John_Dunne]John Dunne

Video gaming is an expensive hobby, but, as this article will demonstrate, it need not be! Most of the expense is due to the price tag of new video games and the fact that many video games have a short life span - be it a great but quick to complete Xbox 360 title or a PlayStation 3 game that simply loses its appeal quickly. This article will consider video game swapping as an alternative to purchasing new video games out right.

When you think of swapping video games, you might think of temporarily swapping your video games with friends. But, there are online communities which consist of like minded gamers who want to swap their games with other members, for keeps. A community forum enables gamers to talk with one another other to decide which games will be swapped. Once an agreement is made, the postal service is used to send the video games.

Video game swapping has several advantages over simply selling your current completed game to a local game store or via a sale such as on eBay. A brand new game will cost you up to around £40, but after a week (you could complete a game in that time!), a game store might only offer you £20 for that game and sell it on for £35! Or if sold on eBay, they will take an 8.5% cut (an additional 4% cut for taking payments via PayPal) on the final sale price. You’re not even guaranteed a price on eBay and your game may actually go for significantly less than you would like. By swapping your video game, you avoid the loss in value of that game and you don’t have to contribute any more money to get a new game. You get a game, for a game (or several depending on what was agreed!) After all, your game is in mint condition and some other gamer will be happy to make the swap with you. It’s a great way to get new games without costing a fortune!

John Dunne has been an avid gamer for over 20 years and has setup the video game swapping website TheGameCollective.co.uk to help gamers swap and sell their video games free of charge to help us get the most out of gaming.

Creating Computer Or Video Games - A Simple Explanation
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Ted_Ravenell]Ted Ravenell

This article is going to explain the steps to creating a video or computer game and will name some of the software that can be used to make a game. I will try to equate the different parts of the game making process to the human body to simplify it. The first process in creating a character or model is to create the muscle. One would think we would start with the bones but that would not be accurate.

After the muscles have been created, you stick the bones inside. Then we flatten our person out like a medical examiner conducting an autopsy. The next piece of the puzzle is to add the skin and clothes. Once that’s done we define a range of motions like the motions we do on a daily basis. Now the bulk of the work is done and we stick our character in a game. Even though I used a human just to give a comparison of the steps involved in creating a model, the same steps apply whether you’re creating an animal, a machine or an entire city. In the following sections I will explain the steps in more details.

First you create the muscle and bones of the animation. The muscles in humans are generally the same color all over. They outline the shape of the individual. The 3D modeling terminology of the muscles is called the mesh. The mesh is a colorless, transparent frame drawn over a grid. The next step is to create the bones inside the muscles. In 3D terminology this is actually called adding bones to a model. The bones and the joints they are attached to, make it easier for us to animate the character.

It is also possible to animate a character using the muscles or mesh. This is more like real motion where the muscles move bone. However, this method of animation requires more time and processing power from the computer. Can you image trying to manipulate hundreds of individual muscles to move someone instead of just moving a couple of bones? The most important thing to know about your software is; does it create a model compatible with the software your using to make your game or animation? They usually have a list of different formats they can save a character in. The good news is that all you have to do is create a character once and you can save it in different formats for different software. Here are some popular software to create the mesh and bones.

3DS max
Maya
Blender
Lightwave
Milkshape
Sketchup pro
Ulead
Truespace

Next, once the muscles and bones are created we would of course want to add skin to our model. But it’s difficult to draw skin on a 3 dimensional character so we have to make it a 2 dimensional character. We do that by unwrapping the model. We, in essence, become morgue technicians and slice up our poor little person and lay him out flat. The tools below are used to unwrap a mesh. Some tools are the same tools mentioned in the previous section.

Unwrap
Lithunwrap
3DS max
Maya
Blender
Lightwave

Now that our 3d model has been flattened we can draw the skin and clothes on him or her or it. We say skin and clothes because if your model always wears the same clothes then there is no need to draw the skin that no one will ever see. The skin and clothes gives us our color and texture. In 3d modeling terminology we say skinning a model or adding texture. These tools have a function called layering where we can draw the skin of the person add a layer and then draw the clothes if we want a more realistic appearance.

Paint.net
Paint shop pro
Photoshop
MS Paint
Zbrush
Lightwave
Blender

We are getting close to the end now. Now that we have our characters for our game created, we have to create the motions that the models will use throughout their game life. Most character will have the actions walk. In the simplest form of this action, you simply move the characters leg bones a couple of times back and forth. After each movement you use the animation tool to set a “key frame” which is just a snapshot of the motion. Adding 3 or 4 key frames of the characters leg bones moving back and forth will create the illusion of walking when the key frames are added together. A more complicated way of doing this is to move the muscles to create leg movement instead of the bones. This creates a more realistic look as in reality the muscles move the bone, not the other way around. However, there are more muscle fibers than bones, thus making it more complicated. The next motion would probably be “run” which of course adds more steps because more body parts are involved in running. After those two you would do the different “fight” movements and of course a game where the player keeps winning is not a challenge so you have to eventually die.

Poser
3DS max
Maya
Blender
Lightwave
Milkshape
Sketchup pro
Ulead

These same steps are used to create the world or levels the characters live in except that no motion needs to be added. Once the character, level, and the characters motion are created we can add it all to the game engine to get things in motion. The game engine provides the brains for the game. They detect the input from the keyboard, mouse or joystick and they translate it into one of the motions or actions designed previously. Game engines also detect when a missile fired at one of the bad guys hits the bad guy or misses and hits the wall. This is called collision detection. Game engines also decide which way a bullet goes once it is fired, this is called game physics.

Torque
3D Gamestudio
Unreal
Gamebryo

If you need more flexibility in your game than a game engine can give you then you can create your own game engine using a programming language. Be forewarned, this requires a lot of work and skill. If you’re smart, you can start out with one of the game engines that give you the source code also known as “open source” and make modifications.

java
c++
directx
flash

I have used a tutorial at [http://www.juniorgamemaker.com/]http://www.juniorgamemaker.com that uses relatively inexpensive software to make computer games. I used milkshape for creating the mesh. I used Lithunwrap to unwrap the model. I used Paint.net to skin the model. Last, I used 3d Gamestudio as my game engine and also to create the bones. Blender is supposed to be a good tool also and it’s free, so I may try that next. Whatever you choose, I wish you good luck on your journey to make the ultimate computer game.

Wholesale Video Games - Buy Cheap Video Games From Wholesalers

What does Wholesale Video Games mean?

Are you a fan of games? Then wholesale video games are your ideal option. There’s more to just getting thousands of copies of one game. For those game lovers it also provides the opportunity to get great games from wholesalers for fractions of the original price.

The gaming industry

A video gaming industry is a lot like a book selling industry. You won’t see the same old book on the shelves too long. There are various reasons for this. One of the main is that technology is rapidly moving. Many new innovations can make a great game look old and dated in no time.

Another reason is that competition is always introducing new options to consumers. Retailers are aware of this fact that’s why they’re seeking to move units and clear space as quickly as possible to increase there profit revenues.

As a gaming publisher, one thing they don’t tell you is that you’re often your own worst competition. That’s right. Two months after completing a game, you probably looking at the developer and thinking of bringing a sequel to part one. This is a great idea to keep excitement levels high and increase hype for future games to be released, however it destroys the value of the first game

How does the Wholesale Video Games system work?

Being an ordinary gamer I’m sure you’re not after a hundred copies of one game that was a hit last month. But there are many wholesalers who sell in those terms to retailers and gamers on a tight budget should be aware of them. Those wholesalers in particular buy the aging game inventories from stores where we gamers usually go to buy our entertainment.

Some of them are small business operators who buy frequently and resell them on Ebay or Amazon.com. Wholesale Video Games usually sell new games, but they feature a mailing list which comes with seasonal specials on older games at surprisingly low prices. Overstock is the main reason of buying big lots of products that are discontinued, or no longer that popular therefore selling them to the public at a discount.

Wholesale video games aren’t just for warehouses or huge enterprises. Keep your eyes peeled and you might be able to find a hot deal on a game that’s still trendy enough to keep your gaming nights going.

Are all Wholesale Video Games reliable?

Unfortunately as we all know there are many wholesale video game suppliers which are unethical sellers and are fairly common. It is important that if you choose to buy via a wholesale video game seller, make sure you check the seller out thoroughly and inspect his or her ratings and reviews.

So, are you ready to buy wholesale video games? Stop sitting and start playing or selling.

Should You Start a Wholesale Video Games E-Shop - Yes, or No?

โดย trackingvideo@sanook.com ใน Articles เมื่อ กรกฎาคม 12th, 2009 |  คอมเมนท์ที่นี่ »

If you’re broke, you should not. However, it goes beyond it, read some tips for understanding whether you should or should not start a business today as there are many advantages to starting right now.

Should You Start a Wholesale Video Games E-Shop - Yes, or No?
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Joaquin_Reveron]Joaquin Reveron

You have decided to start a business of wholesale video games. Do you want to be a retailer or discount store of video games? Do you have a plan ready to start the business? Do you have a few hundred dollars to smartly invest?

If you do not have money and you are broke, you should not start any business right now. In fact, blogging would be suitable for your end. I am not in any way here to discourage you. The purpose here is to find out whether you are serious or, if you are just trying to satisfy your whims. It’s a difference as you may imagine!

The store owner who does his business through e-commerce shop can soon reap profits if his planning is proper and if he or she takes his business seriously. But if these suggestions sounds to hard to start with, consider blogging, many people are doing it as some say and it is cheap.

Ok, a wholesale video game business can be a very profitable venture in the months and years to come. A lazy guy that has done enough research, executed and consistently markets his business can make it big in the hands-free online business when working on his own and using leverage with outsourcing.

Even with a small budget you can make a reasonable amount of money. A few thousands dollars per month is not strange once established, because in e-commerce know that there are enough customer to entertain and deliver gaming items. It would all depend on your exposure and how you end selling your merchandise.

You can even compete with million dollar companies and even defeat them in their own positioning in search results in Google, Yahoo and MSN. I am a clear example of it. You can also open several subsidiary businesses besides your main video game business by using the same infrastructure. Outsourcing your work in our economy today will definitely be a plus, although many would disagree.

But the facts still remain. By outsourcing you can even increase your profits, save your time, and concentrate on other business activities while keeping as much capital and quality in the scheduled work.

The internet is like a virtual world where you can even employ somebody whom you have never seen and sell your products to somebody whom you haven’t met. It is lovely. The other important thing necessary to build up an e-commerce merchandise shop is to possess knowledge of all the products that you are going to sell in your description and in your website sales area.

This way, the majority of us would consider your shopping site specialized in given products or services. The better you sell and describe your products or services, the more chances you will have in acquiring a flow of continued customers. Very simple!

In that way customers would trust your brand more and consider buying from your store instead of the ones from your competitors. So if you are prepared to smart and consistently market your merchandise, then consider setting up a wholesale store full of wholesale video games items.

If you think of relying on hired persons or agencies to build your e-commerce website, then you should make a detailed research on the options available and the charges involved before finalising your decision. Today, I confirm to you that there is no need to hire agencies if you want to do your own research and marketing analysis. You can certainly do that on your own within a few hours, two hours if you have the specifics on how to research.

If you are one of those who believe in those get-rich-instantly programs then we suggest that you should not start a business right now. Such get rich-quick mentality can only lead to disappointment. You have to make a thorough research of the products which you want to resale and estimate the demand for the products. Do not waste much of your time just building your website, let the specialists, the people who have studied and work on it day-by-day do that type of work.

You cannot and should not do everything on your own. This is why many companies and most of us often work with others. Be it partially or permanently, you need to trust others to do certain types of work for the benefit of business and your productive time.

There is only one Superman and one Flash comic that I know off, remember that! Consider the thought of starting a wholesale video games business, only when you are thoroughly prepared and informed. That is definitely how you start on the right foot, being clear of your wants!
