A newcomer who looks for work

@Kreekanon:
"Well, as advice to you, if you're looking into getting into modding Amnesia AKA making custom stories. You should practice with the editors, and such first.
If such areas are not what you're looking for, and writing, voice-acting, and/or music is more of your thing, and you're looking to join a team, or be "hired", post samples of work work for everyone to see so they'll know what you're capable of better."


Hmm well, I thought at first that I should of course maybe work my way through from bottom to top of course, and I shouldn't expect far too much since the engine is in fact limited
I will most likely attempt myself onto building the maps sooner or later, but as of right now I don't have much thoughts about doing so. But well, I doubt it's so hard when you've really learned it, it's just to get the more perfection which will be a little harder to master ( no glitches in the walls etc).






@Adrianis:
"What Kreekakon said.

Additionally, you should know that in order to contribute well to a project, you need to at least have a good familiarity with the tools and the process that goes into mod creation, even if your planned role is just in concept / writing. There are certain limitations to any game engine, knowing the constraints of the platform is very important, to weed out elements that are not implementable before you spend too much time thinking about them, and to make sure that what you plan makes best of the advantages of the engine you have.

...
"I have lots of plans in mind alredy"

Additionally-additionally, you should know that everyone gets into game/mod making because they have awesome ideas. If you are not able, or even willing to learn how to do the practicle part, it does not bode well. Plus, the making part is super fun when you get into it, you might love it! But you gotta try "


- Yeah, as I said in the previous response. I know that I shouldn't have too high goals in the beginning and work my way upwards, and I shouldn't have too many expectations since there probably is somewhat hard to make new good custom stories now without modding a lot, considering how long it has been etc.

I assume I should maybe try to fix the story for myself kind of, and try to practice a little and when the AAMFP comes out I'll try to make something then





New question:
Is there someone who could post some links which are very helpful for starters? I would prefer guides with text, and not videos, but videos are ofc ok aswell.
Yes, I can search myself, but I think it's always better to ask since someone might redirect me to a good guide which I wouldn't find otherwise.

Aswell, have you done any work yourself / tried to play around?
