Introduction thread for new forum members

Hi! I’m ThePotatoFruit
I started playing Roblox when I was about 10 from watching a Roblox ad and since then I started making games for my siblings to play. I am now 15 and I live in the UK and I am very passionate about scripting and making games. I am currently working on my first proper game, a battle royale. My dream is to work as some sort of programmer. Im looking forward to being part of this community!

Hello I am toxicator1 and I found roblox when my brother’s friend showed him it. I got started in roblox studio just building the things I liked, such as pianos and fighting arenas. Eventually I learned how to script with the help of some highschool. classes. I hope one day I can profit from my games but having fun developing is my goal for now. I have always been a player more than a developer, so there’s always an urge in me to finish a game quickly so I can play with my friends or see how fun it is. I take interest in games that have fights and require a lot of skill, and I enjoy sandbox games. Outside of roblox I really enjoy jazz music and street fighter, and I try to take skills I’ve learned from them and apply them to game development.

Err…Hi?

My name is Martianinferno98, and this is my first time doing a post. Oh dear, this is nerve wracking, but I’ll get straight to the point.

I started playing Roblox in 2010 and actively trying to enter the Dev Forums since 2016 / 2017. I hope to understand the Lua programming as I am now in university and hoping to learn coding and computing basics.

Occasionally, when I’m bored, I usually do test maps that are not intended for release, due to the many bugs that need fixing, but I use a program called 3DS Max that allows me to create 3D models with ease.

If you wish to discuss with me about Lua, don’t hesitate to contact me via Twitter.

Hey guys, Bladster94 here! I’ve been playing Roblox for about a year now, but I finally took the step and came into the forums! Sorry if my English isn’t perfect at times since I’m French, but I’ll try my best!

I heard about Roblox since quite a long time actually from here and there, but it took time for me to actually start playing. I started developping a few months ago after playing a dragon roleplay game and not being pleased by some features, so I decided to make my own roleplay game and make it the game I would have loved to play.
Right now, this game is doing pretty well! It’s called Legends of Kasai, and has peaks at 100 or 200 players during the evening. I’m almost graduated as a computer engineer, so I’ve taken care of all the scripts just because LUA is definitely funnier than my job (in C#). I also take care of everything that is related to scripts, such as the GUI.

Sadly, as we progress we’re encountering some difficulties, and just googling solutions is no longer enough. So I’ve made my way here, and hope you’ll accept to help me solve some issues, and if I can I’ll help others too, especially if it’s related to scripting!

Have a nice day!

Hello I am Liscuate. I have found roblox by just searching for a site to game on. (I know this sounds weird.) I am a modeler and builder. (Mostly modeler.) You can also know me from the roblox unofficial discord. (Server Moderator). I started with modeling just half a year ago. I have no idea when I joined Roblox.

Hello! I’m Chris, I’ve just recently become a New Member on the Dev forum.

I found Roblox through my cousin in 2010, he was learning Lua to start making games, and it looked interesting.

I got started with development when I found out about Free Models, and started looking through the code and editing it, creating new or slightly better or worse versions of the original.

My current goals are to finish the DarkRP I’m working on (Inspired from GMod darkRPs and Electric State.) Achievements are Club Iris (First successful collaboration project, failed miserably, but I check it as an achievement.)

I’m a programmer.

I started scripting around 2012-2013 and got better at it around 2015, I’m currently 13, going onto 14.
This account was not originally mine. It was an alt my cousin had made a year before he quit.

my name is alex I am dedicated to creating games more than playing them and I always wanted to work for roblox but now that I realize they do not accept boys or girls under 18 years old.
In short I have less than 18 because I will not say my current age and good I dedicate myself more to create than to the scripts I am not very good in script.
They know that if they need some help to build or some error.
I can guide them as long as I also understand.
Well that’s it if you ever want me to participate in a game of a group call me and there I will be.
Thanks for reading this comment.

Here is a model or rather a game created by me.

Before I begin, I would like to thank the forum for accepting me. My name is Vedant, I have been playing ROBLOX for about 2 years. I was introduced to it via my cousin. I never had interest in scripting, until I played the Egg hunt of 2018. It was so greatly built, that I was inspired to try (and fail miserably, lol) at scripting. Since then I have followed the forum, tried to enhance my knowledge of scripting. Thank you for accepting me.

Hello my name is BruiseIgnio, Bruise for short!

How I found Roblox: I discovered Roblox back in 2009 when there were probably only 400 people max in a game (geez).

How I got start with development on the Roblox Platform: I began to attempt to develop games within the same year that I joined, but didn’t get focused enough to learn code until 2016.

Goal(s): Currently, I’m planning on releasing a short RPG-styled cinematic game, that tests my programming and animation quality, then work up from there. Ultimately, I want to be able to create A grade animations, and be proficient in programming, and modelling clothes for characters.

Hello, I’m goldenstein64, as you can tell by the username…

  • How I found Roblox: I used to play it in my childhood since the age of 11. Now, I am an adult, and I still find this game fun to play, and even more fun to develop.

  • How I got started with Roblox development: I started developing when I wanted to make a game for my friends, which is still in the works… then I started mingling with discords and users on there, finding out about the devforum early on. I even got recruited into a project, I hope it pays off. I decided to take advantage of the new member recruitment program exactly when it came out, since all the projects I was working on would be unfinished until the end of time… and now, I’m here!

  • Current Goals: I plan to at least finish one game, I don’t care about the profits, just the experience. In real life, I am planning to get into a university and major in computer science.

  • Role in the developer community: A programmer would fit me best… not much else to say.

  • PS: The new recruitment system is a godsend, I’m going to start helping people all over the forums, starting today!

Hey guys, I’m finally a New Member so that’s cool.
Wood is a porous and fibrous structural tissue found in the stems and roots of trees and other woody plants. It is an organic material, a natural composite of cellulose fibers that are strong in tension and embedded in a matrix of lignin that resists compression. Wood is sometimes defined as only the secondary xylem in the stems of trees, or it is defined more broadly to include the same type of tissue elsewhere such as in the roots of trees or shrubs. In a living tree it performs a support function, enabling woody plants to grow large or to stand up by themselves. It also conveys water and nutrients between the leaves, other growing tissues, and the roots. Wood may also refer to other plant materials with comparable properties, and to material engineered from wood, or wood chips or fiber. Wood has been used for thousands of years for fuel, as a construction material, for making tools and weapons, furniture and paper, and as a feedstock.

Hello, my name is Cesar.

I first joined Roblox in 2011 after a friend mentioned it in conversation. I quit playing in 2014 to focus on my education.

After graduating from college in 2018 I have decided to take some time to focus on developing my 3D modelling skills. I approached a member of the forum regarding a building project, after a short introduction - I was hired.

My goal is to create games that are played and enjoyed by many, I wish to contribute to the ever growing Roblox community.

My roles are most suited to builder and modeller.

Thank you for letting me join the community.

Hello,

My name is giveme11 and I first joined Roblox in the year of 2013.

My skills are mainly consistent in the fields of Building and Modelling which I highly enjoy and take pride in everything I do. I decided to start developing around a year ago not only for the Devex Program to generate some money but to also take part in this community which I love and give back to.

After almost 5 hours straight of browsing the Developer Forum to gain more information to better help me in my hopeful developing carrier I am thankful for this New Member opportunity and will try to help others as much as I can.

Thank you for taking the time to read my first reply,

I found roblox through my brothers!

I started development when I had a sudden urge to become a developer and create games that people can enjoy.

My current goals at the moment is that I need to finish this story based game that is themed around the CyberPunk Genre. My current achievements is that I’ve gotten 1k members in one of my groups before.

My current role is that I am more of a Renaissance Developer. I do just about everything from building to graphics design and many things.

I initially found ROBLOX from my cousin. It seemed like a fascinating game and, being the curious person I was, explored more into it.

I began to get involved in creating games, which ultimately led to my love and desires of writing lines, building and creating graphical designs/UI work.

I’ve recently hit my income goal at the end of Novemeber 2018 from the commissions that I do, and wish to double that by the end of 2019.

I can finally post on the devforums!

Hi all, I have been playing Roblox as a kid since 2008, and in the past 2-3 years have started developing on Roblox more professionally. You can check out my creations at DENSELI.

I wasn’t able to get past the application for the devforums until they automated access which is what brought me here. But now that I’m here I hope to bring value by programming and UI designing some great stuff. Reinventing games I used to love and making them on Roblox.

I am also open to any opportunities to collaborate on great games, with only one condition: no jerks.

I got told by a message that I’m a dev forum member now and that I should talk about myself here? I’ll just split up the answers to the things up top between paragraphs so it’s easier to read.

I found Roblox because a model of a Subspace Bomb from Smash Bros was in google images and I thought Roblox was a Lego model site.

I got started with development after getting introduced to games like radiogamer’s Roblox Quest and Polyhex’s Roblox Adventure and I’ve been trying to make a similar game for a while.

In terms of what I’ve done on Roblox since that day in 2011, I’ve floated around in dev groups owned by friends, mainly as a builder and artist, but I’ve branched out to my own project and learned to script, 3D model in Blender, and compose music (music had become a big passion of mine in the past few years).

Recently, I’ve been working on my own game, Roblox Story, of which so far I’ve done all of the music, scripting, building, etc. (I now have a team for building, thank goodness).

My biggest accomplishments are probably writing music for Super Bomb Survival and coding a custom moveset for my game.

Thanks for letting me into this community, and I hope I grow from my experiences here!

Edit: Just thought I’d mention that over the summer I sell music/art commissions, so if anyone needs an artist or musician for anything in their games, hit me up!
