Modding, Mission Design, and Coding => The FRED Workshop => Topic started by: Nuclear1 on March 21, 2005, 06:43:17 pm
-
Judging from the list of "Help Needed" threads recently (admittedly some of them started by myself), I thought about starting a new thread where every modder/FREDer could list their abilities and availability in case they need help.
Abilities- FRED - Several years experience (SA, own campaigns; currently have 6-8 missions done for current project)
Availability- Currently leading a project and FREDing. Possibly available for a quick few missions.
Freespace Version
-
Abilities:
Two years of FREDing experience, and I actually enjoy FRED.
Availability:
Not at all. After losing two previous half-finished campaigns to a system crash, Blitzerland is now working on his latest project, to-be-announced. After he proves his compatence by finishing said-project, he will either join nuclear1 in FREDing GTI Rebellion, or beg TVWP for a position. Maybe both.
Freespace Version:
SCP, 3.6.5.
Faults:
Refers to himself in third person whilst listing traits, uncanny ability to get into flamewars and other misunderstandings without actually doing anything. It's true!
Furthermore, it took Blitzerland five minutes to notice this had been stickied.
-
Abilities:
Don´t know how many years of FREDing, maybe 5
Testing
Availability:
Little to none as I´m busy with MT. I´d try to help with revision or testing, but I won´t create any new missions.
I´m on SCP 3.6.5

Availability- Not much for FREDding, but writing/storyline I can probably do.
Freespace Version- FSO, any version you might need. Foolishly deleted retail .exe though.

Abilities:[/u]
Writing
FREDing -- been doing it off and on since 1998, though nothing has been released.
Basic POF editing
Some degree of ANI making, but usually only simple things like weapon icons.
Being a total packrat and collecting ridiculous numbers of MODs :p
Availablility:[/u]
I'm currently working solo on Eagle Takes Flight and have RL stuff too, so not much.
FRED/FS version[/u]
3.5.5 at this moment in time, but I'll upgrade to a version with multidocking soon.

Abilities:
Average FREDder
Average Table hacker
Average story writer
Average web designer
Average logo designer
Average...man...
Availability:
[EDIT(May 1st 2005): Hurra! i just bought a new hard disk and i'm now installing FS2_OPEN. Willy is back on bussiness]
Currently working on his own project (HomeWorlds: Human Nature, i will start to recruit member as soon as i finish the plot). I might write an history for you...or FRED a mission, if i like the plot of it.

-
Abilites:
An average FREDer (if that exists) with about a years worth of FREDing experience with only a few months of active FREDing.
I've also begun to start testing missions
Availability:
Working mainly on the Fred Academy, doing my own odd missions and testing other peoples work.
Freespace Version:
Retail, SCP, 3.6.5. and TBP.
-
Abilities:
FREDding (I like to think I'm competent, though I'm not a master by any means)
Writing: dialogue, scripts/storylines, background info, tech-nonsense etc.
Modelling: Extreme hardcore n00b(TM) ship-maker. I can make decent (IMO at least) models, but I have no texturing, lodding or converting experience as of yet, and it's likely to remain that way for some time, as I have little time to learn.
Availability:
In a word, no. :D I'm FREDding for SA, TVWP and ITN (158th Banshees), my own little project (who isn't though? :p), I may end up fleshing out the ITN storyline for later chapters (pending discussions with Spicious et al), and I'm currently drowning in RL stuff (coursework, uni applications, personal crisis).
Freespace version:
SCP (3.6.5), though I'm behind on much of the new stuff. High-poly models, high-res effects etc. are largely missing from my machine as I lose track of releases very quickly, and some stuff seems to break other stuff...
-
Skillz: Professional Fredder :nod:
Availability: I will gladly make a Logo, test a mission or write a plot for anyone who asks. I can't handle anything big quite yet because I'm leading a project and I am committing most of my time to that.

What? How does using SCP make you a better fredder? :wtf:
-
SCP is easier. :p
-
"went a long way" doesn't make you an expert by any stretch of the imagination.
-
WHATEVER.
jesus christ, i post one thing and everyone makes a ****ing riot out of it.
-
Oh, my God, people, please stop already.
I've said it a billion times already, but still nobody seems to get it. Cobra, stop taking everything so goddamn personally.
Goober, there was little need for that post mocking Cobra's abilities. A simple editing would have had the same effect.
Other vets, just stop. Don't irritate--it just makes the situation worse.
This thread is for listing the abilities provided by the Freespace community for modding and campaign building, not[/u] for flaming Cobra for having excessive self-confidence.
-
Abilities:
FRED - Formerly had about 6 months worth of experience - but that was 3 years ago.
Writing - Proficient - I took several high level creative writing classes, and write sci fi fiction for fun. I have two stories right now that I will shortly start working on for FS2 - I like to write more than I like to code, and would make a good match for someone who likes to collaborate or just likes to code (read: use fred) if there are people like that out there :confused:
Availability:
Weekends - particularly Saturday nights (have no life - nope none what so ever)
I'm down for whatever - don't know if anyone would want my voice but I'd try it out - and as said, I proof read well (don't judge forum writing to = real writing)
Freespace Version:
Retail
3.6.5
what ever else you need me to load
-
Hmmm. You could try writing a mini-campaign for the FRED Academy...? Talk to karajorma about it. :)
-
The FA needs to finish off the current running campaigns before we move on to anything else but when a couple are finished we will be taking new submissions :)
-
Abilities:
Pretty good modeler
Alright fredder, if FRED wants to work for more than 30 seconds
Pretty good poffer
Availibility:
Since it's summer now, I can probably do more stuff, however I have troubles finishing things.
Experience: TVWP, AotD (but not much modding here, more story stuff), my own personal stuff, some other campaigns that died a while ago...
Build:
Usually the most current FS2

Abilities (As in, what I /don't/ suck at)-
~ Unproven FREDder - Can do it, but nobody else knows how well.
~ trueSpace modelling.
~ Once Reason arrives, making music. (*Cough* (http://www.waycoolpages.com/originorder/grimssong.zip) I know it sucks, it's an older one...)
~ Voice Acting, but only if family isn't home 'cause they are already worried he's schizo.
[edit] Oh, and good web page design, but that will not likely come up much. However, I have increased availability on that. Can't do its graphics, though.
Experience-
~ :nervous:
Weaknesses-
~ Apathy, but you probably don't care. ;) .
~ Finishing stuff he starts.
Availability-
~ Laziness impacts this...
~ Working for Twisted Infinities, or rather, will, once he gets FS2 up and running.
~ Little to none.
Version-
~ Retail at the moment, will upgrade to the latest once FSO3.6.7 is released since he just reformatted and lost FS2.

As for me:
Abilities:
- basic texturing (mainly cut&paste)

- basic coding (will look at the SEXP-tutorial within some weeks; can't make any promises though)
- basic interface art (icons mostly)
- medium to expert pof-editing

Basicly none right now. RL issues mostly (uni) and a bit random modding for myself now and then (want to increase my modeling skills sometime).

Abilities
* FRED - A couple months worth. I tried to create my own campaign in FS1 where the folks on the...Delta Serpentis side of the Lucifer explosion started their own campaign to take back Shivan space. Of course, I got busy and never came close to finishing it.
* Voiceover - Did some work for a game that never came out called "Culpa Innata". It was developed in Turkey, but I did the work in Chicago. Any of my European friends ever hear of it?
- Also was the voice of Admiral Ahmose, Commander Syme, "The Hapti is a Scion vessel. We are being boarded" Vasudan, and "I think not command, this vessel is now under Scion control. Engaging drives in 5, 4, 3..." Vasudan in the BWO demo. It was a blast. Hope I can help out in the full version campaign
Availability
* I've got three jobs (two at local PA radio stations) so I'm around only part of the time. Very inconsistent.

-
Might as well throw my info in here...
Mission design: main strength, 7.5 years of experience
Modeling and POF editing: complete retard, can make cubes and spheres
Writing/proofreading: excellent English, spelling/grammar nazi, knowledge of FS universe befitting a true fanboy
Textures and 2D graphics: novice, can make simple interface graphics and do minor touchup work
Tables: good working knowledge, nothing remarkable
Mission testing: super excessively picky, take forever to get my own missions done
Programming: nothing relevant to the SCP, will try to pick up C++ if I get the time
Availability: none right now, but may have time for stuff in the future
Version: variable, changes every few days with new SCP releases, but using 9/17/05 build most of the time

Freespace version: Retail/latest CVS build
