well i had skipped around mmo engines but none i liked as much as unity so i have finally sat down and started working on some networking code. I started with the networking project provided by unity and have been modifying it to something new so now it doesn’t really look like the old one to much. my game started small but after players at my school started playing it a lot(my whole class) i decided to work on it more. this is Japanese themed most of the stuff im doing is things i havnt done before even though ive worked with unity. no character animation cause i dont know how and these are just place holder character models till i learn to model arms and heads. i wanted to show u cause i think im doing good for only working on it for 2 weeks now and most of it was made in the first 3 days.
can u guys tell me if its a good start or not?
Yeah, seems like a good start. Do you have any video of the game so we can see it more in action?
yeah here is a video though it was made Friday and i did a few things during the weekend but u get the feel of it a little i can make a new one at ur request
EDIT: forgot to add the link lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIN2cn6GKCM
Congratulations! The game is great!
How did you do this effect cartoon?
thank you very much. its the toon shading that is provided from unity
i would like to get animated characters that are better but for now id like to have these models animated if anypone can help me with that i would be gratefull. Im adding in a menu texturea and UI’ish lol
If you want to get some simple animations you could buy some from Maximo which can be done from inside the Unity editor. Also I recently found out about Ikinema’s in browser animation editor. It works pretty well and is free while they test it out, http://www.ikinema.com/webanimate/webanimate.php. Also if you have a kinect camera or a few webcams, iPiSoft is decent motion capture solution for getting some animations.
It would be asking too much if you pass me a tutorial teaching how to make cartoon effect? 
I’v been there, done that. Hope you know what your in for
i know what im in for with a project thats online. and i have a friend that has done it thats helping me a bit when im stuck since im not a coder in unity.
and dude u import the toon affect asset and use that for ur textures. i can make a vid if u really cant figure it out
im adding a simple menu tonight
The environments and the grass look good although I’m not quite sure the look of the character fits in. Looks like a 2D image has been stuck onto the screen.
i wont deny the fact he looks like that because for being an ok modeler i cant make nice character other than the legs and torso
Well ik i havnt updated and thats because of graduation and other things going on. For awhile i had a problem with the code and that lots of glitches came up so i had not done much work but i added a few models so i thought id show them. Hope u enjoy.
We have thought of a name for the game and its now called Dojo Online
If you are using Blender to make models, you might consider using this: http://www.blendswap.com/blends/characters/basemodelv1/
I dont use blender I use a program called AC3D and I plan to learn how to use maya or max
If you want to use it, I think I can export it to 3d Studio for you so you can still use it…
You’d have to re-rig it though I believe?
Joints should remain intact though
Though maybe Blender to max has some sort of conversion
Im not sure
id like to learn how to make my character better or at least learn to animate the ones i have now
