Hey have any of you ever heard of the 3D GameMaker, Dark Basic ? it looks pritty good the features that were listed on its site were amazing and theres also a program called T.Ed thats a landscaping program and it takes around 2 minutes to download and the thing you can do is unbalievable but as i was saying Dark Basic is made to design 3D or 2D games my friends bought it last night and it cost $53 all togeather shipping and everything it came with a free game and a cd with the most popular 3D games on it along with a programming book on how to work Dark Basic.

I was wondering if any of you have tested this program or heard anything about it, For example how good is it or is it some cheap rip off to make money ?

I can only learn what i want to learn.

Yeah, it's not a "jump right in, and start using" kind of program.
It does have a fairly steep learning curve, but there are tons of tutorials on how to use it.
Here are a few of them:
Blender 3D: Noob to Pro
From start to render: A blender quickstart
Blender 3D Tutorials
Blender 3D: Tutorial Links List

These should get you started.
Just Google "Blender Tutorials", and you'll have more than you'll know what to do with (about 1,560,000 for Blender Tutorials). :thumbsup:

Not really.
I've just been playing around with it when I have some free time, which isn't often, but I do enjoy it. :thumbsup:

I find that the more you play with it, the more addicting it becomes.
For a free program, there's not much it won't do.
I like how much support there is for it, on the internet.
A good place to go with any questions is the forums, at elysiun.com.
I've learned a lot just reading the past posts.

I haven't made anything I've been satisfied with, therefore it's all been deleted.
As I said, I don't have much time to play with it, so I'm still learning the basics.
Have you checked out the Gallery on the website?
Gallery
That will give you a good idea, of what Blender is capable of.
There's some awesome work, there.
That's why I haven't given up on it yet. :thumbsup:
