Benzetacil Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Hello Everybody!! I’m new here, so i think is better begin with an introduction : ) My name is Alex. I'm from Brazil (São Paulo), and I will start university in Computer Science. Searching for RTS games I Found 0 A.D. a few months ago. I really liked the game and when I saw the game is open source and anyone could help i thought that could be a great place to learn more about game programming and how works a big project. I downloaded the code and opened with visual studio. but it's hard to begin from zero modify the code. where can I found a documentation or tips to help me? what I need to know before try to help? I know openGL is important so where can i learn more about? sorry if I made silly questions, and sorry for my english mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leper Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Hello. Have you found our wiki (trac) yet? There is a page for new programmers there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thamlett Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Hi Alex,You don't really even need to know that much about OpenGL in order to work on the game. Most of it is Ideas, 3D Art, and editing .XML documents.When I first came here, I thought I needed to learn code too (and I have learned some from working on the game and its mods). But I found that all I really needed in order to start was the willingness, diligence, and patience. Everything else followed . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
