Hello guys, I'm LadyQueen and nice to meet/read you all.
I've decided finally to become part of this community, curious about open source and curious about the Cube2 engine. It's almost one little yeart that I've changed my habit, liking more and morer the open source way of thinking and living.
So, even if I'm not a coder (but I've basis to "read" and understand basic codes of Visual Basic, Turbo Pascal, C++ etc.) I am an artist and a graphic designer, interested in the understanding of the 3D world as evolution of the 2D graphic.
Because of my husband, who loves nerdy FPS, I was initiated to Sauerbraten. Actually I'm not an Ace, but I liked very much, from a personal and professional point of view.
So, I've discovered Red Eclipse.
I'm here to help myself to understand, because I like learning, with the right time, and "evolving" myself, and I sincerely hope to reciprocate the favour, once I've learned enough to share my contribute with you all.
First, I've to learn and read a lot, in particular wikies.
I would like to develop a "mini" game as a mod for Red Eclipse, something like a custom and personal remake of Bullfrog's Syndicate, in a FPS key.
I think that concentrating in this project I could become familiar with scripting and C++ (<-in particular).
I know that "ideas" are free, but I like to try to make some of them "real", through wise, humble and good sensed steps, from smaller to the bigger, with no hurry.
So, here I am.
Warm regards from Italy
