This is what I have for my game so far.
Story.
Character models.
and some other basic stuff for the game.

My questions is though.
What software do I need or shall I say recommended that is cheap or free by download.

Such as the animation software,
graphics software,etc.
I love games

Well, cheap would def. be Milkshape, prob the best thing for modelling for DB. Perfect for lowpoly, or even high poly. Can animate too! Its like $24.95 US.

Anim8or (www.anim8or.com) is free, I use it, but my teams modeller uses milkshape, and you can see shots of the models at www.halbrosproductions.netfirms.com/screeshotsx.html

to see what it can do.

I use anim8or and milkshape. What I do, is combine them. You know, make something in one of them, export it in 3ds (because both can import and export 3ds) and use the other to edit the model. See? Many tools!!! This way I have a lot of tools from both milkshape and anim8or. I am also pretty good with Anim8or, but Milkshape offers much more.

Ya, netfirms is a great hosting solution. Its cheap- even for no adds! I am buying the domain as soon as Eternal Destiny is released.
