Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Vespero on August 11, 2004, 04:37:36 pm

I am willing to use my voice to help out. I'm doing some voices for the WC Saga mod (I go by a different name there), and this project also looks very worthy of some community support.

What lines do you want as an audition?

We're now also hiring modellers and texturers, in addition to voice actors and fredders.

A couple of months late, but I can help with voice acting and FREDing. I can do something like a young male pilot, fresh from the Academy or something. :D

I'm also good at FREDing, just don't ask me to do any variables. I still don't know how to use the damn things. :mad:

Send me a sample mission demonstrating your fredding skills.

Post by: Cobra on November 19, 2004, 06:27:35 pm

Well, I'm almost finished with my sample mission. I'm gonna send over an Orion nameplate with the mission. It just says "GTD Orion" because I thought that would be cool. :cool: Do you want me to PM you to send the mission?

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Cobra on November 19, 2004, 07:00:04 pm

Damn. Now every time I try to open FRED2 it crashes. Sonofa****! :mad: Maybe I'll take off the nameplate.

*sighs* Well, I'm almost done with the THIRD version of my mission. This will be my concept mission. My missions always turn out to be assault missions, and sometimes an occasional rescue or protect something mission.

Title: FINISHED!!!
Post by: Cobra on November 24, 2004, 09:40:35 pm

My third version is finished!! *email's Spicious* I want feedback. Oh, and tell me if you would like me to voice act for ya. Like I said, a green recruit or something. ;)

Spoiler:

The mission is about the man played in the main Freespace 2 campaign. About a year after the Capellan incident, Alpha 1 is recommended by Admiral Petrarch for police duty due to increased pirate activity.

Think of it as a demo for my upcoming campaign.

It will take some time for the owners of the shop to show up, don't worry about it.

They 'll be here.

Well, if my sample mission is liked by Spicious, I might be a new face in the 158th Banshee Squadron.

Hello? Anyone here? *echo*

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Spicious on December 10, 2004, 11:54:04 pm

If you still want to do voice acting, record the following lines:
[list=1]

• San Antonio, respond. Respond dammit!
• We've shot down all the carriers, pilots! Good work.
• The Ford is launching two wings of fighters. Designations Mu and Kappa.
• 243rd here, moving to engage the Novgorod.
[/list=1]With the mission, here are some thoughts on it:

The pirates wouldn't have a Boadicea as their base. If you need to be an asteroid base there is another one available. Why would the pirates have a corvette and why would they send it to deal with a wing of fighters? Why does the Lexington arrive only after the pirate corvette arrives? Why do the pirates give their message demanding surrender after the player's wing destroys 3 waves of pirate fighters?

Why would an elite squadron be transferred by itself to police duty? Why would there be a command briefing going on just before arriving at a combat area?

The player's commanding officer wouldn't say 'now we know how good you are' in the succesful debriefing.

If the Lexington is destroyed there is no in-game message about it's destruction. Where is the failure debriefing given?

Why is the survival of the Lexington only a bonus goal? According to the debriefing it's survival would appear to be paramount. Why is the destruction of the pirate corvette a bonus goal? When I tested the mission the Lexington attacked and destroyed it before paying any attention to the asteroid base.

You really should use waypoints rather than attack orders for capital ships and the escort list and backgrounds should also be used. The player loadouts need to be properly set, since all the weapons, including dogfight varients and all the ships are available.

Actually, that was one I kind of threw together. In reality, that mission will be in Pathways (my new campaign), but a little more refined.

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Spicious on December 12, 2004, 12:34:21 am

A sample mission is supposed to be refined.  The point of a sample mission is to show your skill at creating a quality mission.

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Cobra on December 12, 2004, 01:00:05 am

OK then, I'll make a new one.

Spoiler:

It will be my own version of the last mission of Silent Threat. Might be kinda close to the original, though...

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Cobra on December 13, 2004, 12:31:58 am

Never mind. When I get the time, I'll record the lines. I'll have to put it in one .wav, since hotmail does a really crappy job of uploading voice files. Need your email.

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Cobra on December 18, 2004, 12:00:07 am

:wtf: i just found out that goldwave makes .wav's at 10.1 megs... used a different freeware recorder that makes the MUCH smaller. Sent 'em to Spicious.

Post by: Getter Robo G on December 19, 2004, 12:40:04 pm

Cobra, I think maybe you were using the wrong settings. Even with Campaing briefings I never had any single wave file close to 1MB! Biggest I had was like 800-900kb and that was a pretty hefty paragraph!

Title: 158th Hiring thread
Post by: Cobra on December 19, 2004, 01:56:27 pm

Yeah but now, all my .wavs are less than 50kb.

Title: 158th Hiring thread

i use goldwave, and i guarantee you that i had smaller wav files than that
