As of the past few weeks, a friend and I have gotten the idea to make a small game level, with a simple character model made via 3ds Max 7. Yeah, probably won't work, but we're going to give it a shot.
I'm not sure if this is something that's really hard, or fairly simple.
Edit: We planned on buying some cheapo server, and allowing others to connect to the world(small level, for now) as well..
So, a few questions:
After a character model is made, and a few animations are made for the model, how exactly do you integrate it in with C++? ( That's what most of any MMO is written in right? C++ in OpenGL? Yeah, we really don't know much).
I mean, how exactly would you go about it in C++ so that say when W is pushed, the model will move forward, or when S is pushed, it will walk backwards ( assuming we have those animations ).
Is doing something like that really difficult or what? Is this whole idea absurd?
