i like to design my character

and use it in my game

in my game, you have to kill

i named it genocide

now i need everything that are needed for killing like guns, bombs, panzers, cars, bullets, people, fire and more

now how can i design them?

as i mentioned before, i can't see well: i have 20% of eyesight only!

but i can see with magnifier

now can i design or say to my friends to go and design for me!

when you can't see well like me, you can't test your applications and you can't read something

I want to say yes you can, but naturally I can't promise something like that for another person. However many people make all their game characters, guns, etc. with Blender so it is definitely possible.

Remember it takes lots of time to become good at making models, even if you have perfect eyesight. So you must be patient. Download Blender and try it yourself, it doesn't cost you anything :)

Start with simple shape and object that does not move such as a barrel or a box. Try to make the shapes and don't worry about textures yet.

Regarding your eyesight, you might want to purchase a larger monitor. Choose the biggest one in 1920x1080 resolution you can get, which is probably around 26".

Some of the things you mentioned, like the bomb and the bullet, could potentially be easy to make. Making a good human, however, is kind of novice. You should probably save that for last.

If you want to be challenged to make something... I challenge you to make a vase from scratch, though you can use a shape as a base if necessary. I made my first vase just pretty much learning the interface. I think I created a circle and extruded, but my memory of my method is a little fuzzy. It's still an easy challenge, though.

Good luck.

Ok

i know now

now a question to get started with blender:

when i made my project in blender, and draw the shape: i want to design a wall now

after that, how can i save it?

my mean is save for use in programming

thanks and sorry

There are two types of files. Saving it as a Blender file, and exporting it for use in games. You definitely want to save anything you make as a Blender file to work on it later. But to use it in games, you need to export it.

I'm not using Blender right now so I don't remember what option you click, but it should be at the top left of the screen under the menu, the save and export buttons. The menu is probably named something like "File".

There is nothing to apologize about. I was a little straightforward in my posts because I wanted you to do well. If we taught you everything, you simply wouldn't learn, and I would rather a man learn to fish than have their fish caught for them. But anyway, this is a great community where I or anyone else can still help you.

Which game engine or development software do you use?

Unity takes .blend files so you can just File -> Save (CTRL+S) a .blend file and Unity can open it.

Other engines might use .3ds or .fbx and this you can export with File -> Export.

But now focus on getting shapes done.

If you have some problem or anything you want to ask about Blender feel free to PM me.
