If there is any space at all for a modeler, will work for proper conversion software. Also, it's a long shot, but I *MIGHT* be able to interest some of the smart dudes at TMP in helping to program... very long shot, but they've been dealing with EarthC for a long time and it's essentially identical to C. Email me if you want a modeler, I have lots of tools I never could use in the DXF transfer or in FS (most of them take little notice of poly count) pleasepleasepleeease!

Hmm... true. I could do all sorts of stuff like that, yeah. To be brutally honest, I just don't want to come out and say I can do modeling (which I can) or mission creation (which I can) since they both require enormus amounts of time, which is something that ATM I don't know how much I'll have. So I'll keep my resume to spell-checking and brain-storming for now.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

space sim, i think is what thunder was thinking and me to, it seems to be one of the easiest 3d genres to work on, as there is no walls to worry about and the ai cant get stuck really. Unless it is really dumb!

I've draughted up some ideas for a possible game that combines both space sim and strategy.  It is very rough and would need working on - but what the hell.

it will use some of the principles of what iw2 has to offer and extend on them, but this openGL is harder than i thought i really need to learn c/c++ but that is just boring

Come to think of it - how hard would it be to create non-newtonian physics in IW2? That'd save the trouble of having to write a new engine...

oh if you are interested, i have decided to put off making a new engine for the game, but dont fret i will not be using the freespace 2 engine so it will not be a mod and i will be using a massivly powerful one which is totally free, checkout http://www.themodplace.co.uk/blackdust  for the latest info
