there isnt one. you're gonna have to learn 3d studio max or some other 3d modeling/rendering/animation program and then learn programming.
making 3d games isnt something you can just start to do.

unfortunately, you guys are wrong, my brother just started making 3d games and the one he is working on is comming along fine, he is figuring it all out as he goes along and its working, so dont doubt so easily.

If you want to write one from scratch, you're going to have to learn some extremely advanced programming (C++ probably). This would take about 3 years... 3d modeling is sort of an afterthought.

But, there's easier ways to do it... there are probably programs that let you put stuff together from a premade set of objects.

Yeah, your going to have to learn to program really well, model really well, and map realy well.

And dont count out doing the texturing, sounds, and other artwork that is necessary.

A good game takes a expert team of developers months, even years to make, a single person, even if they were amazing in every field, would take at least a year to make a small game.

Sorry to get your hopes up, but its not gonna happen

man veryone here is so negative. i just started learning java and its coming along fine. i dont think it can make any real good 3d games but it provides a backg ground which will make c++ easier and c++ makes good games. just start out with and easy programming language and learn it. go from there

if you know you're shit you can scrape together a game from a premade 'engine' and stuff. The baiscs are alreayd put together. Not saying it wouldn't require a lot of work though.

anyone know what the equivelent of the locate command from QBASIC would be in c++? C++ is tough. I couldn't even imagine a 3d game.

yah ur best bet is lightwave and gettin a premade engine in a language you underatand, but it really isnt an easy task, especially if you cant find an engine that suits your game for free.
