Hide nothing from him for game development.
He can't have total focus on any particular aspect and be able to ship anything.
Buy this kid a new gaming-class computer every 2 years.
This investment could save you $100,000 in college tuition fees.

This may be advanced, but worth a shot: Game Theory

As far as gameplay goes, follow the mantra of Dwarf Fortress and FTL, "Losing is Fun!".
Occasionally place players in impossible situations so they can experience failure while trying their best.
A game that's too easy or too linear gets dropped quickly.

Maybe he'll pick up the art side as well and make a game before he's out of high school.
8 years is long enough for a really good game, even designed/developed solo - Uplink had 3 devs, Banished is a 1-man shop.
I started programming at age 15 - within a year of getting my 1st computer.
I could have done it earlier, but didn't have the $2000+ required in those days.

'CruTcHy' & his "greatest hits" (lol, fails is more like it, vs. myself, 10x++ here on /.):

---

1.) 'CruTcHy' doesn't know that PYTHON requires left indentation -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3335057&cid=42378113

2.) Again: IF my program has a "bug", how come it ran PERFECTLY here vs. your "trollspeak/trollanguage", 'CruTcHy'... Hmmm?? -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41052117

3.) 'CruTcHy' conceded memory usage with loaded data (where first you criticized me for it & withdrew it) -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41126057

4.) 'CruTcHy' BLEW IT on the print statement -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41126057 (yes, I proved I was well aware of it, but unlike 'CruTcHy' , google-boy/googler? I do my OWN work & write my own inlined code vs. function call overheads & control actually - same reason I didn't use BDE or SQLite - I did the work, myself, perfectly!)

5.) 'CruTcHy' missed the fact that the hosts file DOES need protecting (UAC ACL & write protect help do so) -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41126421

6.) 'CruTcHy' ADMITTED hosts files are useful (which I will find very useful in the future, thank you!) -> http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41126661

7.) 2 significant folks in the security field who create custom hosts file data host my GUI program in malwarebytes' hpHosts & securemecca -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41126285 for custom hosts file creation & mgt.... and 'CruTcHy' said nobody gives a hoot about my program (seems you do, & fail vs. it, and there's these security folks also).

8.) Text Editors like notepad.exe &/or gedit will NOT handle properly processing hosts file data fully, which 'CruTcHy' had to be "schooled in" also -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41121573

9.) 'CruTcHy' is a troll that's constantly off topic - He had to be reminded of what the topic is here (hosts) since you were trolling calling me homo, retard, & such, plus starting up your trolling b.s. -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41104817 &

10.) 'CruTcHy' doesn't even know that PROCESSORS FETCH INSTRUCTIONS FROM MEMORY (not send them directly to the CPU) -> http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3335057&cid=42374745

11,) CruTcHy says code should be easy to debug & yet doesn't use error-handlers -> http://developers.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3258205&cid=42016197 (we ought to call you "Mr. Crash & Burn", lol... change your nick to that, might as well, after that... lmao!

* You FAIL 'CruTcHy' you noob, & 10x++ vs. myself (& there's more than that, but that will do for now, lol).

9.) LASTLY - YOU ADMIT MY PYTHON PROGRAM WORKS:

"regardless of how well it runs" - by crutchy (1949900) on Monday August 27, @05:53PM (#41142547)

Aha: There we have it - YOU ADMIT my code works, so... how can it be "buggy"?

10.) 10th would be that a "ne'er-do-well" TALKER like you even attempted to critique my work... you, with ZERO TO SHOW FOR YOURSELF!

(No bug in that output, now is there? Nope... that's the BOTTOM-LINE of any app - does it take in data & process it, correctly!)

* You made a mistake & because of it, so did that online debugger (which MAY also be operating on Python 3.x, rather than the 2.7x version I use which has less issues by far, or @ least, last time I looked into it over 2++ yrs. ago by now iirc).

It's 'under the radar' at the moment. You can take that as me being full of b/s if you like, but as an indie/homebrew dev I'd prefer to STFU until very close to release (don't want to promise anything I can't deliver within the next half year). If you've seen or played DCS:Ka-50 or DCS:A-10C then just below that is the quality of product I'm aiming for, but multi-platform (and leveraging all those lovely Java technologies I mentioned, which have saved a huge amount of time - plus all the usual Java goodness like JAXB, JVisualVM etc etc that makes even lil' ol' me much more productive per unit time than someone working on C++).

Sorry I can't give you more info amgo, I intend to reveal a lot at the end of the year. Meanwhile, I'm mid-way through implementing Eric Bruneton and Fabrice Neyret's superb research papers in JoGL/GLSL : check the excellent videos for Proland, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AVh1x-Uqjs, and then just imagine modern multiplayer jets running around there, such as these turbosquid models I licensed:

• F/A-18 sourced from Turbosquid
• CVN-79 USS Ronald Reagan
• MiG-29K
• AV-8B Harrier

So, I hope my points about Java + JoGL + JOAL + JoCL + JInput are taken seriously, especially by homebrew/indie game devs that otherwise might be trapped by using XNA when very good free tools are available (I can get less than 1 ms rendering time/1000 fps on an Nvidia 9600 GT mobile on my 2009 MacBook Pro using OpenGL VBOs for the F/A-18 Hornet with around 50k polygons and several textures and a shader for the limb-darkened sun - so Java/JoGL is definitely fast enough for modern games).

You can clearly see the bumps in photos and schematics of some models.

When dealing with cutting edge and secret military technology there are bound to be changes no civilian has seen. The US did admit they lost one too.

Ant-Roach reminds me of a tachikoma

You're doing something seriously wrong if you're doing mocap for a month.

Also, there already is a 3D model market, see TurboSquid for example. However, you're assuming that a game is only a patchwork of random disparate elements. It's not. It would pretty much break the fourth wall if you started to notice that you saw that particular soldier in another game, so you'd need people to retouch the models and assets anyway. Besides, you probably want all the models to have the same visual style, so it's probably less effort to just create the models from scratch instead of having to tweak something you bought.

Also, you failed to see that asset production is pretty much a pipelined process: a modeler makes a model, which is then sent to a texturer and an animator to complete. Also, a lot of the costs related to assets are mostly related to client demands. If someone at Disney or Warner doesn't like the look of character X from their license, well, you have to rework it, then send it for their approval again, hear them whine again, etc. Having asset libraries in that case doesn't help.

Well, you can always try http://www.turbosquid.com/ Most models there are for sale, but there are quite a few free ones there. I do remember getting a free model of a football (soccer) ball from there sometime ago.

everyone knows that prepacked stuff is used in games all the time. There's a whole industry based on it. Check out http://www.turbosquid.com/ sometime. I sell a lot of stock photos of ashpault on there quite a bit. I suspect most folks buying those are game designers working on car related video games...

I attended the XNA Open House this evening. The first demo consisted of downloading a model from TurboSquid, adding it to a XNA Game project, writing about 15 lines of code ... and boom -- there was a rendered ship that was lit, spining and was controlable by the 360 controller. Ridiculously easy.

The entry barrier has been lowered significant. I forsee alot people taking advantage of this platform.

Uh, wait. That's Running Man http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID /181886

I am astonished that no-one has provided a link to the original thousand year old beacon.

Around July, Crack first missed payroll. August came and we moved out of the office. September offered no new news, so we decided to call it quits. Rather than letting all that hard work sit around and rot, we released it to the public domain.

or mace

You know, I had to read that one twice. I kept thinking it said a mace.

I was trying to think how you stayed out of prison all these years.

Get a hold of Blender for 3D animation and rendering. You can use Terragen to create photorealistic landscapes. You can grab a kick-ass free model of the martian tripod, or if you've got $65 to spare, you could buy a pre-made model of a martian tripod. I don't recall what type of ship the Thunderchild was supposed to be, so I can't provide a link to that, but there are lots of free models you can find for that, too. That should just about do it... all you need for a CGI recreation of the scene, on a budget of $0.

If you don't like CGI, you could just make a paper model of the martian tripod and shoot it on video in your kitchen sink. The quality might suffer a bit, though.

There's a really cool collection of various WotW artwork here that should help inspire you.

Personally i've been freelance developing 3D art and models for companies for a few years now, and i've learned a couple of things.
Turbo squid is better for artists.
And 3D objects don't get better with age (at least not yet)

This will be GREAT for the production industry (which has moved off shore) as users will be able to forget their skills of automatic recall when it comes to part recognition and sucumb to the all mighty 3D shape database.

There is no doubt that 3D is terribly complex -- it's like software in a lot of ways. It has different complexity for each object, and productivity is completely ignorant of Moore and his law. One solution which Intel and Macromedia have been pushing to help with this is creating online marketplaces where vendors from all over the world can publish and aggregate their 3D content for reuse, similar to component reuse in software. One website that does this is Turbo Squid. Why build a ps2 model everytime? If the world can aggregate enough cheap and free 3D content, hopefully 3D will be used frequently and used in a context that makes sense.
