Title: now hiring
Post by: LtNarol on February 14, 2002, 08:51:16 pm: first order of business:

i need more staff, particularly in the following fields

Texture artist- some one who can create textures for my 2 texturers to use. These textures need to show a level of detail somewhat like volition ships.

Background artist- need new nebulas and planets

Mission tester- someone who can test the missions to tell me where all the bugs are.

Ani creator- someone who can make animations for command briefings

cutscenes- some one to create the cinema effects.

If you're interested, either post on this thread or contact me via email at [email protected] please no off topic replies.

Tell me what you want, and I'll see what I can do. Nothing too fancy though, dont expect any flashy squadron logos out of me.
I can do flybys and whatnot, and I'm still getting the hang of animated weapon effects though...

Post by: LtNarol on February 14, 2002, 10:03:47 pm: cool, flybys are more important than squad logos, especially that one (its the intro campaign briefing ani)
Title: Maybe...
Post by: Kamikaze on February 15, 2002, 02:30:05 am: Hey, I could prolly do some mission testing if I'm not too busy, ummm and I can't do any art (just needed to tell you that...) except drawing.

Uh...i,ve been 158th Staff for a week or so now.
Title: now hiring
Post by: LtNarol on February 15, 2002, 05:02:58 pm: so you have been, and a most valued member too. Those of you now signing on, email me at [email protected] for data requests. The public site does not have all the updated files as some are very unstable.

Texture artists (those who make the textures) need to contact me and get the full set of models from me.

Ani builders, the list of what is needed is above towards the top

texturers, i'll let you know when the artists get me the bitmaps, sit tight for now, work on bmps if you want, but hold off on using capital ship textures for fighters as they dont come out so well.

testers, mail me for the fully updated missions packs.

Working on one right now....
Title: now hiring
Post by: LtNarol on February 15, 2002, 05:18:11 pm: thank you so very much Thorn. I really dont think the staff fully understands how much i appreciate all that they have done for this project, and i doubt even more how much i appreciate the HLP community for being so helpful (i came from FSW). So let me put it this way: this project would have never gotten past simple missions that dont work if i hadn't have stumbled on a link to HLP, and without the staff that i have, this project would have never come as far as it has. Therefore, since the 158th has been my dream for half a year, i would like to publicly thank all of you.
