When I saw "should I learn DirectX? Topic" and Gabriel ask chwaga, What's Your ultimate goal? and I thought that would be great idea to ask people this

trying, learning, trying, learning, trying and learning more and more how things does work and how to code.... a great target would be to code nice 4k DX9 intros and bigger DX9 stuff like 64k intros, demos, games... Would be nice to get a job in this business again and understanding C/CPP ^^

Mine would to be improve my learning & knowledge, and also hopefully make pretty cool productions.

My current goal has to do with the productivity/fun ratio.
I used to get anxious more or less when I tried to code many of my demos.
Even for my hardest works the oppresion was so high that, while you'd say it deserved the result (which was still not a top notch demo), it gave me the bad meaning. That if I wanted to make an even better word I have to be oppresed more. And so I said I am never gonna do it again and that would mean I would make worse demos. Well, I didn't exactly did worse demos, but I remember some of my older projects are thins I stare and think I will never be able to do this again.
So my current plan is to change this kind of psychology, to regulate my emotion and demomaking times, find some inner balance between productivity fun, laziness and creativity and show to myself that future great projects are possible without much fuzz and anxiety but well placed work and good fun.

My future goal would be to make something bigger, maybe a big virtual world or some crazy AI entity or anything I would right now dream on.

or some crazy AI entity

I love watching things evolve from code. You should definately do this.

It's something I'm going to tackle in yab at some point, evolving ai is a cool subject.

My next step, is try and get rid of the old habits, and try and learn new ways.

Shockwave · « **Reply #19 on:** February 13, 2009 »
