Title: A Call to Arms: 158th Hiring
Post by: LtNarol on April 12, 2002, 12:01:31 am

[glow=blue]To all those new to HLPBB, welcome aboard.  The 158th needs everything from FREDders, texturers, weapons creators, sound effects peoples, animation artists, modellers, etc.  If you have a talent in any field of modding or campaign work, the 158th needs you.

For those of you wondering: what is the 158th, the answer is simple.  The 158th is a campaign team working on the "Into the Night" trilogy.  The campaign will feature multiple acts, and each act will be released when ready.  Some of you out there might be thinking "Thats a lot of work, I don't want to get myself into something thats going to take that much time."  Not true, the only additional work to be done for each act will be the fredding, and it will be very dispersed; no one will end up with 12 missions to do in a week.

For those of you wondering if the 158th is understaffed, the answer is yes.  The 158th is not overly understaffed, but more help, especially in fredding, is always welcome.[/glow]

I'm active but it takes time to make good ani's you can't make those in 2 hours.

1. It takes about 3/4 hours to setup a scene ( could be more depends on the complexity )
2. Rendering allot of frames ( about 500/600 ) takes about 12/14
hours ( again it depends on how complex you make the effects in the scene )
3. Converting whit "bright" takes longer then other progs to convert files to 8bpp, whit bright 500 frames take about 15/20 min.

So you see it is prety time consumeing.
