Campaign announcement! Cry of the Angels - In Progress
I am now officially announcing Zing and I's campaign, Cry of the Angels.

Overview:

In the Pegasus sector of the Sol Empire, the enormous Union Galactic corporation is in control. Commerce, travel, even elements of the military forces. This incredible mass of commerce has attracted many pirates to the sector, searching for the Big Score, that will let them live their lives in luxury.

Features:
- Fly through a unique universe in a band of space pirates searching for the Big Score.

- ~30 brand new ships

- New weapons

- Custom music

- Custom Interface

- Many missions spanning 3 seperate chapters

- Fight enemy pirates, the gigantic corporation Union Galactic, the military, and a secret foe

Yeah, this is heavily modded, but I figured since it's gonna be a camp more than a mod, this would be the place to advertise. We'll have 4 of the models done by the end of the night. They just need to get all the pof stuff finished. Eyepoint, gunpoints, etc.

However, we do still require help in some areas. Mostly the table data. Ships, weapons and music. I need someone experienced with making new ships and weapons to help me out with giving the ships and weapons good and balanced stats.

Any other help we need I'll announce later. Once we get some working ships I'm going to start making missions for Chapter 1. And then perhaps a trailer. :] I think this weekend I'll throw together a simple website for the camp if Zing wants to show off his models in progress.

I think we can, modelling is going fine, gone through my learning curve with FS2 this last week or so. Probably have all done in a month or two, then we just have to worry about the other aspects of it.

30 models is a hell of a lot of work though. If you have the free time to do so go for it.

 I suspect you'll have a hard time attracting staff unless you show that you can produce something. Give us pictures of those 4 ships, textured and in-game and you're more likely to attract people than you are by simply posting a grandiose list of what you hope to achieve.

*recommends Singh to help with custom music*

This looks like this could take a while. I wish I could help, but I've learned to stop spreading myself so thin.

Good luck. :)
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

The first chapter only has 15 models or so, so that load is light. After we get all the models done for chapter 1, we'll just focus on getting it complete. Then we'll worry about the other models.

As for something to show, I'll talk with Zing, get some names for those ships, and post some preview images. All 4 have textures and are in pof format. I just need to do the final pof editing.

If you desire more, with those 4 ships I could probably throw together some basic [read: mostly stolen from fs2 ships] stats for them and put together a really basic mission. Not enough for any kind of demo release, but something to show them in action with screenshots.

Giving them good table entries is what I'll need help with. Never been all that great with balancing.

I think the thing you're going to run in to the most trouble with is "custom interface" if that means what I think it does.  There's a lot of "interface" to change.  That said, if you can put together an interface pack that isn't :v:, you'll get lots of interest from the greater community.
who needs a signature? ;)
It's not much of an excuse for a website, but my stuff can be found here
