Introduction thread for new forum members

Hello! I’m KireiKage, a beginner to Roblox Studio who is constantly trying to learn more about it. Currently trying to learn stuff past the basics of scripting, which has been pretty hard to learn :sweat_smile:

Format:

  1. I assume through my brother a while ago
  2. I have been messing with it for a few years, but it’s never been anything until some time after 2020, when I started putting time into learning the basics of the platform. Currently, I am working on learning pieces of making games; some examples I have done are some datastores, checkpoints, leaderstats and values, property changes, instances, and I am currently working on events!
  3. My goals are to learn as much as I can, especially with scripting. I am hoping to use whatever skills I can gather in the future for a career path in that field.
  4. I currently have no “role” per se, but rather I just gather different styles depending on the time, and as stated earlier, I’m currently (and will probably continue to mainly) learning scripting. I hope to be able to use scripting on a bigger project in the future, so currently I am just trying to gather some skills.
  5. I also try to use whatever I learned with Lua / Roblox’s scripting in other languages, such as Python, and the other way around, which actually helps a lot with understanding!

Thanks for reading!

I discovered Roblox in 2017 through YouTube recommendations. Additionally, I’m curious about the occurrence of a backdoor in Roblox around March 2019 that allowed exploiters to obtain gamepasses for free with just a few lines of code. It’s quite amusing to think of that as engineering.

1. How did you find Roblox?
Hello, this may be a late reply, considering I was a active member a couple years ago, but my username is Angermode, and I recently created a account around 2014. It wasn’t until 2017 I started getting more active within the platform. It was mainly my younger brother who roped me back into the platform around 2017. I played a lot of Tower defense games back then, but It kind of slided off when the community faded unfortunately.

2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
Like I mentioned earlier, it was really tower defense style games that really got me to be engaged with the community. I wanted to leave my mark in these games, so I started to make maps with hopes that they would get accepted.

3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
It may be a bit late for me to hop on this bandwagon, but I plan on familiarizing myself with the roblox forums and try to be a helpful and active member of the community (to the best of my knowledge)

4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
I don’t think I really have much of a role here? But I would say I know a little bit about coding / animating / building / 3d modeling.

5. Anything else you would like to include?
I don’t really think I have much to share, but I am planning on trying to enter the UGC program at this time. I am not sure If my application will be accepted, but I will keep trying. Currently familiarizing myself with Blender and its tools.

Hello I’m voermin! It is a genuine pleasure for me to be able to finally be promoted as a member and be an official member of the community!

I had only played Roblox for fun back in 2018 on my Xbox, and when I gained access to a computer, Roblox was a fun gaming platform for me. I had also been a fan of programming and developing my own games, and when I learned that you can script your own games on Roblox, I was exited to try making games!

I then started to learn the LUA coding language using YouTube tutorials so I can learn how to make my own scripts. It took a while to get used to it, but now I can say that I am relatively familiar with the language.

My Goals are to be able to make many great games for Players on the Roblox Platform to enjoy. Games that people will remember and have good memories about.

I am exited for the road ahead and I hope that my time on here can help me excel in my programming and help me advance my 3d modeling.

Thanks for accepting me into the community!

Hello, I’m Kiwimaximus02 and I’ve been using Roblox for many years and cant remember how I found out about it, I only recently decided that I wanted to get involved in the Roblox studio side of things and want to work as a modeler.

I got started with Roblox studio because there when many Items on the Roblox market that I thought looked good (I’m picky) and decided that I wanted to make my own, I have already done modelling for a couple of years now outside of Roblox so I have no problem modelling good assets and now my goal is to become a Roblox UGC member so I can put the stuff I create on the Roblox market.

I quick example of something I made recently would be this Goku hair.

Didn’t see this thread, been posting for a while now but better late than never!

  1. Found Roblox in May 2021 through my little brother wanting me to play a simulator game with him.
  2. I opened up studio out of curiosity one day and threw together a free modeled mess titled ‘a weird game’, but didn’t really start actually developing until 2022 when I started making ‘Find the’ games.
  3. At the time of writing this, I’m almost at 10K total place visits, a huge goal I’ve been working toward.
  4. I do a little bit of everything, I can script okay, build and do general game design.

Happy to be here! :smiley:

I just found it randomly out of nowhere, took interest as it was incredibly fun to play and there were interesting games back then that weren’t overused. Tycoons and Simulators.

I started by downloading Roblox Studio and using random plugins to learn off from so I could improve myself overtime, I gave myself many challenges to do in order to learn off of them.

Goals are simple, fame and respect from others, have others see me as someone that they could get help from. My second goal is to gain people from Roblox to be close associates whenever I develop. Last of my goals is to gain people that know me from somewhere and follow me around as if I was a influencer.

My achievements so far is that I’ve finally made some game that has a good number of players on it. That’s it.

Modeler and Builder.

No, thank you.

Hi everyone, My name is Walter Hartwell White. I live at 308 Negra Arroyo Lane Albuquerque New Mexico 87104. This is my confession.

Im currently no one here. No one knows who am i. Im pretty much no one in roblox community right now. Barely anyone knows about my existance here. Im trying my best to be funny here but sometimes devforum moderation just deletes my post. :sad: Im also trying my best to help some people in scripting section (i did that alot of times but i kinda stopped now). Im no longer helping in scripting section because it got boring right now. Of course I might come back and help some people but right now I dont feel like doing that.

Im trash at building but I know how to script in roblox luau. I dont know advanced roblox luau scripting so dont expect me to do some advanced stuff here.

I like devforum roblox staff they are most friendly people out there i ever met. Roblox should consider raising their salary like alot if possible.

Here some games that i like and play:

  • roblox
  • cs:go (now its counter-strike 2)
  • minecraft
  • gta 5
  • garrys mod
  • plants vs zombies
  • plants vs zombies 2

yeah and I dont play much. Video games became boring. As I mentioned below im from Poland and im Polish.

Video games became boring for me probably because i grow up honeslty I rarely turn on my computer after all of that.

sorry for bad english im polish after all and i dont know much about english language

I have played video games for hours and after more than 5 years I got into making video games here on Roblox. I just became a member today so I can finally use the dev forum and here is what I have to say:

  1. I first found Roblox after my Youtuber cousins first played and I have been playing it ever since 2018.
  2. After 5 years, I started looking into development and it is my absolute passion and I love to make games it is the most fun thing ever.
  3. I want to make my group Legario Inc a real success and my first game after I actually knew what I was doing instead of using tons of models is Spleef Master. Once I made that I realized I could actually make games, there was no stopping me.
  4. I am an independent game developer / all-rounder and I am studying all categories.
  5. I am currently working on a game called The Defenders Of Pacifica which is an RPG / Adventure game kind of inspired by The Legend of Zelda Breath of The Wild. Here are a couple screen shots:

The picture above is the thumbnail but it is alpha and it will change before release.




The game’s NPCs also walk toward the player when they are within a certain radius and are going to use their sword when they are close enough to the player the game will also save the swords and location of the player. Be sure to check it out when it is done!

Hi Everyone! I’m OffGridDude! Excited and grateful to be accepted into this great community.

How did you find Roblox?

My friends introduced me to Roblox. I was impressed at the immense work that developers put into their games/experiences. Being a musician myself, I felt they deserved more options for audio/music than stock audio. I thought that music algorithms could be used to allow game developers to create their own music, so I built Audioscape.ai, an app that creates copyright-clean, custom music (ambient, horror, chiptune, etc) for games.

How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?

We started programming in Roblox to figure out how to code music created by Audioscape into Roblox games in the way AA and AAA games do. We took some of Roblox’s sample games (Obby, Castle) and inserted our music, experimenting with how to handle loops and crossfading. See the link below for that code.

Current goals/achievements on the platform

  1. Help Roblox developers create their own, unique, and copyright-clear music that fits their vision of their game/experience.
  2. Engage with Roblox developers to discuss the best ways to code audio into games.

What is your role in the developer community?

  1. I do product, music composition, audio signal processing and a little programming.
  2. My primary role is talking to developers and understanding what they need from audio/music, and what their biggest challenges are with getting music to work the way they want in their games.

Anything else you would like to include

I’d love to hear your feedback — positive or negative — on the Audioscape app and the music it creates. For example:

  1. If you could make your own music for your game, what kind of music would that be?
  2. How easy do you find it to add music to your game in Roblox? Both uploading new music, and using/looping stock music? What can we make easier?

Thanks very much. Looking forward to some good discussions!

Hey there, I’m actually a veteran forumer but it seems I have not replied to this topic yet, so I’ll be delighted to introduce myself.

I briefly met with Roblox in 2008 for the first time but I had only registered an account myself for the first time in 2010. So, I will begin this story with the day that I registered an account on Roblox for the first time by myself.

My story is quite thrilling as though it is from a movie. Here goes nothing:

The date is November 23rd, 2010. I had turned 8 years old about two months prior and my mother in a third trimester of pregnancy is going to give birth that day to my younger brother. As a result of the occasion, my parents decided to have me sleepover at my cousins living in the same town as us, just a five-minute drive away from our house. I was to stay for a full week at my cousins. My cousins were both males - one being older than me by two years and the other younger than me by one year. They had married parents. One worked the day and the other the night.

Now, at the time, the weather wasn’t the greatest. I recall it generally being rainy, windy and cold. It was overall dull, so it was no time to go visiting/exploring anywhere, so we were pretty much stuck at their home for the week. As you can imagine, being inside a building a whole week is no fun experience, so we had to make the best out of it. Luckily, my cousins had a Wii gaming console as well as a desktop computer that were capable of running some pretty entertaining games. And as you’d imagine, we obviously played some games on them, day and night, making the best out of our situation. Some games we played were: Mario Kart Wii, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, some miniclip games, old Papa’s games, Club Penguin, Wizard 101 and also, Roblox.

Out of all of the games we played, Roblox fascinated me the most because it was three-dimensional as well as a great game aimed for kids. It just seemed fun and intriguing to my eight-year-old self. This should come as no surprise however, because, if anyone recalls the site design of the early 2010’s, you will recall that it was obviously aimed for a younger audience (consider the heading/top-site banners, membership graphics and event graphics of that time, for example). There were many entertaining experiences back then that aren’t so popular anymore but at the time were super-duper fun to play and I just wanted to continuously play them. The games weren’t the only thing attractive to me, however. The Roblox Studio software - the fact you can create those games using studio, had also fascinated me because I had never seen and used such software before. So, 4 days later on November 27th, 2010, I’d register my first account (it’s MasterSapphireFrost) with my cousin. However, the username was originally a typo of my last name as well as two random numbers at the end (Tekroglu12) so we decided to register another account that was named after my newborn brother, containing the same two random numbers at the end (serhat12). I’d use the second account as my main account up until 2015.

Shortly after registering the second account, my cousin wanted to teach me how to make games on Roblox and I was super excited about it and ready to watch and listen.

So on November 27th, 2010, my cousin opened up Studio and built a small map/scene based on descriptions I gave him. He explained how to do what he was doing as he did it. Below is the outcome:

It was the first thing I had ever developed on Roblox. Don’t ask why I made it, I don’t know what I was thinking, I think I wanted to be a supreme leader or fire lord or something, lol.

Years later, I’d begin translating, QA testing and more by learning how to develop in these fields by myself.

ezgif.com-crop

My ultimate goal is to someday develop an experience created by myself whether it be by doing it all myself or with a team (so imagine a popular experience with the creator saying “MasterSapphireFrost” and not some group name or other username - that’s my goal).

My achievements are listed below.

A short FAQ about myself:

1. How did you get Red Banded Top Hat?

In November 2016, I was granted the RBTH item for claiming to Roblox customer service that a Roblox look-alike (“clone”/“ripoff”) had infringed Roblox’s copyrights by stealing and selling a retextured fedora mesh. I’m presuming CS was in disbelief and wanted to make sure that they understood my claim so they invited me to a Skype call where I vocally repeated my claim to another agent, presumably higher in position. I remember that day very well, as well as the name of the agent I was speaking to, but to respect their privacy, I will not name them, and I recall myself playing Lumber Tycoon 2 while on call, lol, I was addicted to it at the time. Anyway, after vocally stating the issue, the agent thanked me, and declined. Shortly after, I received an email response from CS asking me to confirm the username of the Roblox account I was using at the time and so I replied answering the question and then CS emailed me one last time notifying me that they granted the RBTH to me as well as 10 USD in Robux credit which I’d use to get a month of Turbo Builders Club.

Now, you will be curious as to why this not so known method is not mentioned on the unofficial Roblox Wiki page about the RBTH and that is because I cannot justify this claim…even though I don’t have a reason to lie about it. I do not have the email conversation between myself and Roblox saved and I need it for justification. I no longer own the email conversation because I had deleted it shortly after it finished because I don’t keep finished email conversations in my inbox and by the time the ticket ended, there were like 20-25 responses from the ticket, so I really wanted that long email conversation gone. The 20-25 responses part I just mentioned might shock you and seem a bit intimidating but it’s because CS had lots of trouble understanding what I was reporting at first (presumably from shock/disbelief as well as maybe from using international agents because a few different agents responded to the ticket).

Now if I’m correct, this method that I used is no longer valid. Not only does Roblox investigate such reports anymore but they also no longer unprofessionally communicate with customers (Roblox users) through Skype. You can test your chances though, anyway.

2. Didn’t you have more DevForum posts?

Yes, you’re correct, I had way more forum posts than right now. In the past, I flagged all of my DevForum content, requesting it to be deleted, for privacy concerns and moderators obliged by my request. Later on, my concerns were addressed and I began foruming as normal again from nothing.

I may still delete some forum posts time to time. The reason can probably be inferred.

3. How are you a DevForum Regular?

Well, I became a Regular through some abnormal conditions but don’t worry, I am intended to be Regular.

In the past, I had participated in a voluntary Roblox program which gives you the opportunity to become a Regular as a program benefit. While participating in the program, I contributed tremendously to the DevForum by publishing lots of bug report and feature request topics. Later on, as time went on, I chose to leave the program, and as per a policy of the program, I was demoted from Regular back to Member. However, one day, I approached a staff member - whose username I won’t disclose, from the forum through PMs, requesting to be invited by them to be a Regular, highlighting some of the great bug report and feature request topics I had published whilst Regular in the past, and they reviewed the sort of content I had posted in the past and decided it would be okay for me to become a Regular again, so they promoted me.

If you have further questions feel free to PM me.

Hello!

I’m very excited to be on the forum! I’m very new to development (I’ve been learning for less than a month at the time of writing this), but I’m learning quickly and it’s loads of fun. I’m excited for the journey ahead and I can’t wait to see what I’ll do and who I’ll meet along the way!

I joined Roblox in December of 2016. I don’t really remember how I discovered the platform, but I believe it was through YouTube.

The beginning is a bit foggy on this one as well :sweat_smile: A few years after I joined, I downloaded Roblox Studio (can’t remember why) and played around with it. After that I made some places to show my friends, though I didn’t do much more than that. In 2020, I made four “joke” games after following some scripting tutorials online. Although they weren’t anything spectacular, I certainly enjoyed making them. Regardless, I soon forgot about these games and Studio as a whole. But I’ve recently fallen back in love with game development (programming in particular) and I’ve begun the learning process all over again.

I haven’t really achieved anything yet, and my only goal is to make games that I enjoy making (as more of a hobby than a career).

As I have a severe lack of experience, I can’t really assign myself a role :sweat_smile: However, I definitely enjoy programming more than any other aspect of game development.

Thank you so much for reading! I’m so happy to finally be here :grin:!
