My last words of advice:

Relying on a single game engine is like relying on a bum to get you into a mansion... it just doesn't work.

Careful planning, research (a LOT of it) and dedication plus a lot of information is vital to ANY game.

Regardless if you use the most popular game engine and have a $2,000.00 budget to use, what if the engine is horrible and sucks to begin with?
That is the problem, people think there is a "do it for me" button when they do not even give things a try.

Most people who make games are usually people who play games but never fathom in MAKING a REAL game worth their while, this is a common trend and 99.9% of ANY project fails... hell I have NEVER seen a complete 2D or 3D game that is commercially completed for the fans by the fans for free... never.

It is a rare thing to do because most people lack any ambition or ideas, art and assets too, to do much of anything and rely on others to do it "for them."

I applaud your work but I saw this coming, I think this topic needs to bury itself in its own grave unfortunately as the author seems to show no interest in continuing the project at all.

In all, good work, but next time hopefully you have a story and other types of structure to hold the game together :3

Quote from: LTGH
I wonder why this topic isnt moved to the graveyard yet.
The project that this topic is made for is dead and UT2004 is not topic related expect that its the same person that makes it, he should start a new topic that isnt in the zelda development and explain more about UT there, that would make it easier.
I am still wondering why the mods isnt doing anything becouse he said

I have stopped working on this project.
which means that this should be moved to the graveyard.

Well im switching graphics because i initially wanted to do twilight princess style anyways, and its much easier in terms of getting the content. So here are a few teaser shots of a fully animated Epona and Moi.

The story will be similar but there will be no twilight realm, and since my computer is slow im going to give the option to enable effects like bloom and stuff.

REALLY!?!?!??! I thought you would hate this style choice lol, im glad you like...this means that i wont be as frustrated since im getting all the source art upfront and it will be much better in the long run which improves the chances of me actually getting something done!

Cows!

Out of curiosity, where are you getting fully rigged and animated models from? Could be a helpful source for this site.

I believe Facepunch had some ripped by various people, though a lot of them are unrigged. I'm not sure, I haven't visited Facepunch in a while.

Are you going to release the source to the Wind Waker graphics demo?  I'm sure it would be useful to many.

Thanks cheesepie! I got some more stuff done. I painstakingly fixed the dino enemys z-position in all of the animations and re-imported him back into the engine...:). Also got one more character in! All of the Gorons are next!

Assuming you've missed my question, hence not answering it, I quote myself to bump it.

Well i saw it but i was taking my time to answer it because i was thinking of how to answer it. You see its very difficult to extract the stuff itself, especially if you're not familiar with it (its still hard if you are though), and to release the source is somewhat useless because its in a format specific to the engine and is in no way complete. It was just a demo and i stopped it because of the very reason that it was so hard to handle and get all the source art.

If you mean "source" to include coding as well, well that is also kinda useless since the coding is again incomplete and just plain bad. IF however you want me to tell you how to extract everything yourself i can tell you and anyone else who asks individually. If you want a model that i used such as outset island or link or something (not animated or rigged though because i don't have the source stuff on my computer anymore just the stuff from the game engine) then i can send you that stuff.

Hope my long-winded answer was what you were looking for, if you need some more clarification or have more questions just let me know.
