@stayscrisp - well we actually share resources here for non-commercial, "home-made" games. For commercial games you will need a team that will design and develop all the components, therefore FMOD perfectly fits into the list

And thanks for sharing another link! Added to the list.

Just clarifying

[SixOfEleven]

I was thinking that compilers/IDEs as well as the various graphics libraries/APIs might be nice.

[Core]

@SixOfEleven - I guess graphic libraries would be good. As of compilers and IDEs, I would assume that the person who looks for game resources already knows what IDE and compiler he/she uses. But that's just my opinion.

You're probably right about compilers/IDEs.

Which of the sprite tools is best for use on C# with Visual Studio 2008 Express and XNA?

Also I installed Blender a while ago and its really slow and generally non-responsive; does that just mean my comp probably cant handle it?

Thanks

[Core]

Basically, when it comes to sprites, it doesn't really matter what tools you use since you generate non-IDE dependent content.

As of Blender running slow, I would assume that your PC is a bit less powerful than required or is just over-loaded with various processes. It runs fine on my PC.

WTF! I'm the one who told gabehabe about Reinerstileset.de! Fag, I should get the credit for that =__=

[gabehabe]

Actually, I found it ages ago.

I just don't like the stuff on there too much, but figured someone else might.

[NeoTifa]

No, I think I told you about it months ago.... :\ Why don't I ever get credit for anything *cries*

[gabehabe]

Yeah you told me about it aaages ago, but I came across it more ages ago. (That sentence makes sense to me so stfu )

@Dennis could you please put that Neo gave you the link to shut her up?

[NeoTifa]

>=( butthead

[Core]

@Danny sure can. Consider that you both contributed.

[gabehabe]

Happy now, Erica? (I doubt it...)

Hey look, my name is before yours!

[NeoTifa]

I can never win for nothing. I hate you.

Just found this: http://www.perioncorner.com

Perion Corner seems pretty cool, it's got rips of Maple Story sprites. Can't use them commercially for obvious reasons but if you're just making a demo of an engine, they're pretty cool.

@X@MPP - Great resources! Thanks for sharing.

Well, so far we have a pretty decent list of resources. Still looking for additions

[gabehabe]

You missed perion corner

@X@MPP those are actually awesome. Thanks for sharing.
