So you're still not convinced about Unity Engine being the best thing to happen to gaming in a while?

Right now I'm working on a little hobby project to see what comes out of it.  Its very small scale, just myself working on it.  I'm using Unity for the engine and writing the scripts (JavaScript) in MonoDevelop (its the IDE that comes with Unity)

I'm trying to use all free software, so I'll be making simple 3D models in Blender and textures with GIMP.

 

I know how to use Maya, but I only have a student version (so I can't make anything commercial with it) 

I know how to use PhotoShop too, and now that they have the Creative Cloud service I have been thinking about getting a subscription just for PhotoShop

I'm also a hobbyist, not planning to release anything for profit myself, Have you tried Sculptris ? I personally find Blender pretty hard to use, I rather use Zbrush, but that isn't free , Sculptris on the other hand is a good Zbrush alternative and its free.

Hmmm no I've never heard of Sculptris, thanks for the heads up!  Though, I don't think my game will have a need for really detailed characters (I don't see myself  even using normal maps).

Any iea of when you might be done with your project?
