It was a community wide project attempted about a year and a half ago.  Thunder still has the project files if you're interested.

I would like to help with any story or mission scripts as well as some mission designing.  

I'm only just starting to learn programming (and its visual basic anyway) so I couldn't help much in that respect.

I can do concept art, storyboarding, physics validation, texturing, cutscene art, 3D models, and other graphic-related widgets.

Well, if I remember correctly, we did a partial storyline, tossed around some ideas and such.  I don't know who was in charge of the models and missions but I think they got started as well.

Can I have a look at the story details (even if they're just rough notes) and would anyone be interested if I had a go at coming up with my own story line or an addition to the one that exists?

Just asking cos I don't really know what's happening so far with the plot of the game but I like what's happening here so far.

nothing is happening at the momment wildfire, we are just talking about it, thunder may have some idea about an actual game plan i am more focused on making the engine, as that needs to be done before any game design goes ahead. So far i have taken step one in an openGL tutorial and made a blank screen but hopefully my knowlege will grow quickly.


p.s could Thunder please email me about what u have in mind, or come on ICQ for an extended period of time, or if u are on and i am on then message me thanks

I can make models, but texturing... that's a grey area

Avenger, if you're making a 3d engine, hats off to you.  That's not an easy thing.  It looks like this is off to a good start.  Hmmmm, should I start drooling now or later  

I might be able to pitch in every now and again with a concept pic or two.  Some samples of my work can be found here.

I'll also email you the link.

Good Luck with this
