The threads about doing a community-written BGE game are particularly interesting to me. I have subscribers from all around the world, from very remote places like Pitcairn Island, the Island of Jersey, and Christmas Island, as well as places where there may not be the resources available to me. The idea that all of them can collaborate and learn is exciting.<br>
<br>To help the education, I did a number of introductory tutorials on the BGE. Some examples:<br><br><a href="http://forum.irakrakow.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2">http://forum.irakrakow.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2</a><br>

Hello all,<br><br>I recently started a Blender 3D discussion forum at:<br><br><a href="http://forum.irakrakow.com" target="_blank">http://forum.irakrakow.com</a><br><br>There are many students who are members. I try to welcome everyone, regardless of Blender background or language. Some interesting threads:<br>
<br>Discussion of developing a group based Blender game:<br><a href="http://forum.irakrakow.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=140" target="_blank">http://forum.irakrakow.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=140</a><br><br>Discussion of motion capture, with links to the Carnegie Mellon University mocap library:<br>

Each one has a link to the video, a link to the script (so that people can read the text of the video and/or translate it with Google Translate), and a description.<br>
<br>I welcome everyone to join the group and contribute to the discussion.<br><br>Best wishes,<br><font color="#888888">Ira<br><br><br><br><br>
