Content Packs Listing
by Leslie Young · 01/26/2007 (6:26 am) · 7 comments
Took yesterday off from working on my game and created this little site.
Though the GG content packs are great they don't all fit into the style I wanted for my game so I started searching for some other packs that was not listed on this site, which took the better part of a day searching through blogs and the forum on this site for posts about content packs and where I could find them. I suppose there are a lot I never even found and know about :(
So I create the Game Developer Resources site, which is dedicated to listing Content Packs for various game engines. Currently there are no packs listed as I am only now contacting pack creators to list their content packs on the site, those I can;t get a hold off I will list myself as I find more packs.
You can have a look at the site here: Game Developer Resources
If this site/listing grows I will register a proper domain for it and make the site prettier, I just wanted to go for something functional and which can start collecting some data while I work on my game, which I might have to delay for a month :( since I received a new contract to develop a mobile application which will keep me busy for a few weeks.

Otherwise, looks like a great idea.

@Leslie, as the title of the site is "Developer Resources", might I suggest that you add some form of "code" categories to your site. I realize that code categories would most likely have to be engine specific, and your site seems to engine agnostic -- Otherwise, looks like a great idea.

Dunno about some other engines, maybe they don't have such a nice resources system like we got here?

Ye, I thought the name won't really work, but I couldn't think of anything else and I think code should stay on the engine's site, like the resources and forums we got here for Torque :) Dunno about some other engines, maybe they don't have such a nice resources system like we got here?

Just wanted to say I think this is a really great idea. I see you wanted some help with a logo, I'd love to help you out with that :) If you're interested, and haven't found someone else yet then shoot me an email at robsandbach@urban-games.net.

This is a great idea. This should actually be part of the GG site... You could have a contest like GG is doing with the GGE website to help get your site populated. Maybe offer a content pack to the person who posts the most packs in a month or so.
