Hello All,

I've not actually organized anything yet - theoretically it would have been Wednesday this week.

Anyone interested in going out for a drink after work on Wednesday???

Also, in terms of meeting topics, does anyone know anyone at any of the local game dev companies that you think could present on something interesting? I don't know anyone, hence me asking. If you do could you put me in contact with them and I'll see if I can get something organised for next month.

I contacted Peter Tyson and he was interested in chatting with us about Dwarf Fortress.  I can pass his email to you if you like Nahum.

I'd be up for tomorrow if anyone else is :)

I have a GDC talk I can go through if you like, but it might not be totally relevant - it's about some tech I wrote for KZ3. Preview here would let you know what to expect, although I'd want to skip over the hard bits:


I suspect that most people would be more interested in the usual game design or bizdev stuff though!

Cheers,

Will

Thinking about it I've got some older tech talk on shaders and post-processing which might be more relevant. Not as pretty or finessed though.

In terms of presentations for tomorrow I think I'm probably a bit late in booking the venue, so how about we add you to the plan for next month?

I'm still up for a drink though if anyone else is after work.

also, I had a quick look through the pdf, and looks pretty interesting to me. having presentations get nerdy about some things is all good I reckon.

Sorry I missed the last meetup and I would be keen for future meets, cant make drinks tommorrow though.
I would be keen to learn from shader writers, especially in relation to Unity.

See you at the next meetup

Hi

I'd like to come along to your next meeting, whenever it is.

I'm a composer and sound designer and have an interest in gaming music.

So keep me posted and I'll look out for the next meeting

Cheers
Theo

Ok to just confirm for everyone that nothing is happening tonight, but
it sounds like a lot of interest for a meeting next month. So we'll aim
for that on the 7th of November.

cheers,

Is the 7th of November meetup going ahead?

ugh, so this totally slipped my mind as my life is a bit hectic at the moment.  I have nothing organised, nor a venue.  So the best I can suggest is drinks somewhere like at the southern cross after work.

does someone else want to help try and organise meetings??

Hi Nahum,
Something has cropped up and I will most likely be unable to make this evening.  I did at least want to say hello before animfx.  If I am able to drop by this evening I will.
cheers

Hi all,

I won't be able to make it due to the NZ open source awards tonight,
but I'll try my best to make the next one.

BTW - I am looking for an artist to do a joint collaboration with
(based in Unity), so if anybody knows someone who has a
tech/future/8-bit aesthetic I'd love to talk with them.

Hi  All,

I'm keen to say hello if I can squeeze in the time.  I've been out of the loop due to me being busy packing & organizing over 10 years of living in NZ to move back to Melbourne in a few weeks.  That's the big reason I can't offer to help organize meet-ups lately.  

There are lots of bars on Courtney Place.  I quite like the Library, Ancestral or Betty's Function House myself but people may have a more limited budget so I am not sure about good cheaper bars in that vicinity...?

Anyway...Wednesday night could be good.  May I recommend Ancestral as my pick?


cheers all,

Pranee
