  1. im not very good giving advice, but i'll do my best. i also have trouble when starting a project. no matter if it's for school, personal life, not even a simple skin. to overcome this, try to base your project on someone else's. im not saying you should steal his/her work, but, in level design (for instance), look at other maps, real life buildings, parks, streets, museums (good for finding detailed info on the time period the map is set on), websites and/or forums.

    i know you have ADHD. i've got another problem that kinda acts in the same way: my 14 dogs barking all the time, stealing my shoes, eating my snacks, touching the power button on the CPU (what involves standing up, grab a stick, chase the dog all around the house, grab the SOB, put it in the drawer for 10 minutes, then release it). my solution to it (i have no idea if this works for you) is just locking myself. not let any other thought get in my mind besides the work. if a dog barks, i just not listen. remove the internet wire, disconnect the TV, get all distracting things away from my room, closing windows and curtains (if i look outside for just 3 seconds i start daydreaming and i stay like that for 1 hour. happened more than once), locking all dogs in mom's room, no music, no food, no drink.

     

    try not to care too much about people criticising your work, nor deadlines. i tend to start making things months before having to hand in. that way, if i get distracted, i still have time to do my job and get distracted. try also having an advisor.

     

    to be continued...

  2. What we are going to use as a game (G-Mod or TF2?) TF2 and gmod for some scripted scenes like carefully timed traps and/or explosions. also for special gib movement

     

    What and how many new models we need? none. possibly some skins

     

    What and how many new maps we need? so far, none

     

    When we meet for first practice in tf 2. whenever we can

     

    The basic plot, which can be changed during first practice. the script is on hold due to school and my BGMS project

     

    Once we get these questions out we can start. K.

  3. ladies and gentlemen, 2012 is approaching, meaning we might all die in 1 year and 3 months. i was wondering, does anyone have any objective to accomplish before we all die a slow, painful death in the hands of civilization?
