I am currently looking for modelers, texturers, interface artists, background artists, or anybody else who thinks they can be a big help.
Please reply to this thread telling me what you can do, how long it usually takes you ( So I can more accurately predict release dates) and if possible, maybe a sample or two of your work ( If you're working on some project that has secret stuff, don't spoil it:D ). If I think you qualify, I'll send you a PM.
Anybody who doesn't have one of the qualities listed can still ( maybe ) join. Just tell me what you can do, and all the other stuff.
We are currently in NEED of Modelers/texturers, and background artists.

how about a Website Manager/Fredder :D
-
We'll be hiring FREDers in a little while, and Stealth, PM me about the site.

you bet i do... an awesome webmaster, who's a PRO with Flash!
j/k, couldn't resist :p
i tried PMing you Hades, but your 'inbox is full' :(
-
If you dont get enough FREDers I can do some "parttime" work for you, but I wont become permanent member. At least not now...
When you require some assistant give me a PM...
-
Alright Miburo. I'll consider you. But I know we will have tons of people wanting to FRED ( The whole team, except Eishtmo, and several others have contacted me ). If you would like to FRED, please do a sample mission for us. One missions will suffice, though if you want to make a mini-campaign, go ahead. Anyway. If you FRED, you must use either the TVWP MOD ( The EXACT one I gave out. Most current version ) OR, use the standaard fs2 stuff. I don't care which, but please, no other MODs. I am extremely busy ( Mostly with school now ) and I don't have time to install a bunch of MODs.

Since "they" forgot...

Exits are to the rear and left. In case of emergency, shotguns are located under the seats.
I don't remember the new one, so the old one will have to do :p
-
Ah remember Hades that I only do can few jobs like assisting (on FRED) if needed. I wont became a stabil member of TVW. So if you get enough FREDers I suppose you dont need my assistance (am I right?).
And what comes about mission, sure I can do a mission at some point currently bit hurry with other 6 FS2 projects and school. Thor should know my handy work also, since I'm on his ITHOV project.
And Ryx thanks (I need to remember those exits :p )
-
You might not need them, but I can do single frame Command briefing ani's.
Some examples are:

Note: I've got an improved Apollo and Athena ani, ones shown have greyer black round the ships but I've removed this on my final ones - just haven't updated the website.
I don't know how long it takes me the top left was fairly quick to do, the bottom right took rather longer.
Apologies if I'm wasting your time.
-
Could you do some new ones, of some TVWP ships. I can't post them up here, 'cause they aren't publicaly available. PM me. And have you tried moving ones?
-
I send you a PM, but I said your inbox was full, so I'll post the same message here:
I got your message, send me some pics to [email protected] and tell me what your aiming for and I'll see what I can whip up.
As to moving ones, thats not really possible since have only free verison of Photoimpact, thats what my examples were done on.
That being said, I could do you an moving GTA logo for the command brief. Basically it would be the top left image in size using the frames from the FS1 to make in moving. Don't know what the legal aspects of this however.

Well, I'm not after GTA stuff right now. We're working on the Unification War demo. it sets the stage for the TVWar, as well as let's us see exactly what we can do. You guys can critisize it, then we'll make the TVWar even better.
I'm very busy, but I'll work on getting you some pics.

Wow, those are GREAT. I especially like the one on the lower right. :yes:
Apologies if I'm wasting your time.
No, don't feel like that! We need everyone we can get. ;)
-
Yeah, if you can make those in a pretty short amount of time ( Under a week, unless something pops up, like school ) we would be glad to have you on the team.
Could you make a command briefing for the United Nations of Earth? UNE for short. Make a GTA, GTVA, SOC, icon thing styl one. If you could make it glitter that would be cool also. Don't release it pubically, but e-mail it to me. PM me if you want to do it, I've cleaned out my box.

Good! Keep it that way! :lol:
Tar-Palantir, could you also make a GTI command briefing logo? :nod: I would really appreciate it. :D
-
I can do you a GTI and UNE one, they wont be animated howver. I'll try must best.
-
We're still hiring! :D
If you have anything at all to contribute, we'd love to have you. We especially need modellers and texturers. :nod:
-
Hey Goob =p
If you get him to make a pic of a GTI logo, i could try my best to model what he comes out with and make an animation with it...
And about the latest pm at vwbb, I like that node idea, I'll go ahead and do it this saturday... ;)
-
Hey RKIFDC! :p
Yeah, that's the problem - coming up with the GTI logo itself. :) I haven't heard much from Tar-Palantir in a while, though.
Making the node animation would be great - I'll pm you my email so you can mail it when you're done. :nod: That'll be really cool - I look forward to it. ;7
Hades, howabout we give our new friend DragonClaw here an avatar? He's going to be doing a couple command briefing animations for us. Really good ones, too. :D

Avatar and Internal Access. I'll talk to Shrike.
-
Goody goody. :D While you're at it, mention that I still haven't received my FTP access email yet. :rolleyes:
-
You can ask him that:D
-
I already did... :sigh:
-
I haven't heard much from Tar-Palantir in a while, though.
You (read: someone on the project) should have my logo's for the PRM, LR, KC and UNE. Whether they're any good if another matter but you should have them. If you've still need more Command briefs let me know. Alas, they will not be animated.
-
Well, I have UNE, LR, and PRM, but not KC. If you want to make a GTI logo, that'd be cool. :)
-

Alright, then I'll ask.:D
-
Yay! I just got a PM saying it's being done. :)
-

I take it you want me to send you my KC ani, or has someone already done it? If they have it'll probably be better than mine.
-
Oh curses.... I can't convert the subspace nodes... doesn't use polygons or something, get an error on the old one and the new one isn't visible at all(--and I get some error in 3dexploration when i convert to .lwo)
bah... Goober, is there any other options?
-
Eh? :wtf:
Hmm... suppose I took a bunch of screenshots of the old node in FRED, and then you could assemble them into an animation or something. Or I could try doing a video screen capture. What say you?
-
Oh, and keep in mind the old node and the new node use different formats. I could send you a FS2 format old node if you need it.
-
Actually, I think this one is a better view...
If you want, I could screen-capture an animation of me twirling it around in ModelView, and you could use that. Or alternatively, you could screen-capture your own twirling with the model I sent you. :)
-
I mean for the cbani you wanted me to do..... I need a model of it, and for me to do the animation it needs to be in lightwave format(.lwo), and I can't convert the pof to .lwo for some reason or other... every other FS2/FS ships converts fine but the node uses some other type of modelling that either pof2cob or 3dexploration doesn't like
-
Right...but I was wondering about superimposing the node animation over the finished cbanim if you didn't have to do it using a model. Hmm...
Maybe we could ask Woomeister if it's possible to convert it. I'll PM him.
-
Do you need any mission testers, i haven`t seen any apply yet, if so let me know via this post or pm..
-
No, we do need FREDers though. If you can do glowpoints on our models that would be great. I can't do them all myself.
-
No mission testers, oh well, though i`d ask anyway..
I don`t have any expertice at models (glow points ) i`m afraid.. I can do subsystems, engines weapons communictions, you get the idea, except turreting, I can`t turret at all...
So anyway, how is the campaign going, mods and such, good I hope..
-
Maybe I misunderstood what you asked about glow points, do you mean engine glows, if so, yes I can do engine glows..
Not to sure about fighters unless they are added the same way as capital ship engine glows ..
If i`m right you got a helper ready and waiting..
(edit) I can also do the tables for the subsystems, if I understood you correctly.. I`m hoping so..
-
I can probably figure out glow points on models. I can do pretty much everything else with POFs as well, including paths and insignia. The glow points stuff doesn't look too complex anyway.
-
Spicious, glowpoints are pretty easy. They are done in PCS. You just put in the coordinates, and the bitmap, stuff like that.
We could also use some insignias on our models.
How about it?
-
Ok, I'll help
-
Am I still being hired?
-
Yup. PM Hades or something, I'm not sure exactly what he wants you to do.
-
Do you need a history writer?:rolleyes: :nervous:
-

Actually, if Eishtmo doesn't show up in time for the first act of the TVWar, we'll need a writer.
-
Eishtmo pops in from time to time, and he already gave us a timeline. I'm sure we can count on him for that.
That being said, MiG, we welcome your help in whatever area you wish to contribute. :)
-
Ok, thanks, and i will read the Eishtmo work.:nod:
-
So what else is open?
-
Anything you want. :nod: We need modellers, texturers, mission designers, command briefing animators, cutscene animators, spellcheckers, and anything else you can think of. :D
-
How 'bout special FX?
-
That too. :nod: What can you do?
-
You name it, and I'll see if I can do it:nod:
-
Um... what were you thinking of? I really don't know what we would need in the SFX category. Do you have an example?
-
Weapon FX?
-
Sure..make it look good.:D
-
If it's models you need .... then I can help :D
Show me a picture, and I can build it :D
If your lucky, I can even deliver it painted, and if I can ever get the hang of it, I may be able to provide it POF'd too :D
I may need a few pointers on model structure etc. coz I'm pretty new when it comes to FS2 modding. Not so new when it comes to building low-poly models for use in PC games though ;)
-
Yay! :D (and welcome to the HLP BB by the way ;))
Here, see if you can build this one for us...
(http://www.3dap.com/hlp/hosted/14_year_war/concept_art/gtb_tyr.jpg)
Meantime, Solatar, can we make this man a TVWP staff member? :)
-
hmm.. to quote an old engineering maxim...
It's impossible to build that, it's way to complex... we'll have to go out and buy one instead ;)
Seriously, though, I will have a crack at making a basic mesh this weekend, and we'll see how she looks :D
-
Thanks. :)
-
It's far from fully finished, but I got a first draft of the ship in FS2.
Where do you want me to send it so you can have a look at her?
I also got a few questions about modelling techniques for FS2 that I need some info on ... when you look at the model, you will know why!
-
You can email it to me. I'll PM you my email address.
-
Hey Goob, ain't seen ya for a bit, should I post a pic of what I've got done on that thing you sent me? ;)
-
Not yet. PM me a link. I'll try to get to an IM-equipped computer either tonight or tomorrow afternoon.
-
ah, gotcha
