Title: Hidden Terror
Post by: DragonClaw on September 16, 2001, 12:58:00 pm
I've come to the conclusion that HT will most likely be cancelled, unless some mission designer joins that will actually do some work.

The reason for this is because I have no inspiration left to work on it, I've been the only one thats done missions for it(and am sick of doing so), the only other person thats done a mission is Roy Fokker, and thats only 1 mission. There are currently 4 out of 14 missions left to do, and I don't have the inspiration to complete them.

In other words, Hidden Terror will be cancelled(and current progress released to the public) unless a mission designer that will be willing to complete the rest of the missions comes along. I just don't have the time or the will power to do them.

4 missions left to do and you're quitting!

You know what they say, "just can't find good help these days..."

What do you need?  What's the story?  I'm in a bit of a lull in my own production, maybe I can do something.

BTW- Although it's nice to have help with something, you just can't expect anyone else to be as excited over your idea as you are (were?)  This is a lesson that I've learned the hard way from years of game design (board, RPG, and wargames, this is actually my first 'stint' into computer games).  All you can do is try not to get discouraged (hell, I'm frankly surprised that ANYONE has even had a second look at my own project   (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif) ).

Hope this helps.

I suppose I could release a bit more of the story due to the current circumstances.


You are part of a 'rogue', you could say, shivan fleet. A fleet that got seperated from the main shivan fleet and the new race lost its influence over the rogue fleet.

I guess you can guess what happens from there. All I need done is the 4 missions, the rest of the stuff can be handled by the active staff.

That's not much to go on...  I can't just 'crank out' 4 missions without knowing the other 10 missions, the ongoing arcplots, etc.  

I understand if you don't want this released over the forum, maybe you could e-mail it to me instead.

My gosh, you're RIGHT!  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif)

Guess I need those before I can do much (did you need me to actually write the sexp and other mission data, or just mission synopsis to regain some inspiration?)

OK, I'm registered with MSN Messanger under (you guessed it) jonskowitz.  Don't really know how to use messenger (or any ICQ for that matter!) so this should be quite the learming experience  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/lol.gif)
