Post subject:  Volunteers needed for new project

It's been a while since I updated Unmapped Lands for the last time. But I'm glad to announce that I'm making the next big thing: bigger, better, more complex, with plot, characters and possibly factions and this time it might be finished or at least released in playable state. The only problem is that this project require an awful amount of spritework and testing.

What I have is a 80% complete Lua engine for this project (>6K lines of code total :grin: ).

What I need is bunkermodules, machinery, other spritework and INI-work. So if you have free time, some skills and can keep secrets - feel free to join.

We'll also need betatesters, but only when we'll have 100% complete engine and some actual gameplay to test. Anyway if you're willing to join, you're welcome but your help will be utilized later.

Finally as I said project supports factions. But this time mod-makers will have to provide support for this new project in their own mods. I can't technically do anything about it. So if you have some faction mod and want it to be supported by this new project (from the very release), just give me a sign and I'll provide all the assistance needed for making it compatible. But I must warn you that the process might be quite tedious.

Your names won't be forgotten, komrades! :evil:

I can beta test and if there is any text do some grammar and spell checking

God-dammit I'd love to help but I'm not a good spriter and I'm fairly sure you can find better code-wizards here.

If you pm me the details of adding support for my mods, I'll take a look into it.
Not that anyone plays with them anymore...

I'm in for anything you need me to do. If I have time. Which I probably will as I have no life.

EDIT: Family holiday for a week soon.

gtaiiilc, ok you'll have to test and spellcheck A LOT )))

Natti, there's not so much Lua coding work needed, it's mostly mission specific and what's more frightening framework specific. In other words you'll have to live in an ugly world and the results can be hardly reused anywhere else :)

Duh102, PMd

Kettenkrad, ok, kind sir, I'll send you what I have and what I currently need most right away :)

I think I could do some .ini coding, if that's needed, and betatesting ofc.

I can help if needed, though Kettenkrad probably has sprites covered. :P

I'd be at least somewhat willing to look into having the recompilation version of the 40K pack support this, depending on the exact requirements such as time, code, etc.

I would be honored to be a beta tester, weegee, I have plenty of time on my hands and can offer opinions and ideas.

Post subject:  Re: Volunteers needed for new project

Natti, ok testers are of great value

Major, Kettenkrad took the flag but I need some bunker modules of different styles, so if you're ready for this kind of stuff :)

Arcalane, PM-d

Fail Flail, ok

A shiver went down my spine. But do tell what would be required of me please. :)

About helping: I'd love to help, but I'm so CC-mod tired lately, so I'm of little use at the moment. :(
I'll give you a nudge if/when that's going to change. Sowwy.

Post subject:  Re: Volunteers needed for new project

I'm fully ready for spriting, betatesting or whatever I can do for you,
since you're the only seed of hope in the belly of this beast, weegee.

Gotcha@: Your expert of demagogy :lol: I have a lot remain to learn...

Major, Naxete, since Kettenkrad is on a vacation I hope some of you will take the dropped flag :smile:

I'll give my best, in legitimate name of progress :cool:
