All the info is there, I seek everyone needed for mod. Modellers, mappers, concept artists, texture artists, 2d artists, PR etc. etc.

Got the skills? Contact me, must have previous work to show.
 
"Bid For Power" is the name of a Q3A Dragon Ball Z mod...
 
So I'm aware, but this is HL2 and not a Dragonball Z mod, so it's all good.

Nah, not really.

Everyone will think you're talking about the q3 mod. Try to come up with your own name.
 
lol...using another mods name ?, thats a big no
 
Well, I didn't choose to use another mod's name. I wasn't aware of another mod being called that. But seeing as they're 2 very different mods I don't see the problem. If anyone else has a problem that's their beef :)
 
Indeed.

I mean, search around a bit before forming names... plus I'm a little grouchy, since I thought this was the DBZ mod, and was ready to slam it 'cos thats right unorigianal like :/
 
Whoa....great way to win over potential recruits there. :rolleyes:

Sounds like a pretty interesting story, but the gameplay sounds just like any other war based mod.
 
Bah, it's so easy to critiscize others.. Oh well, I still don't see why I should rename my mod because someone else has it. They're 2 completely different games and if people get mistakened, well, it happens..

But going about it all negative like what you're all doing is pretty weak..

I have been considering name change, I just don't have any ideas. And as for the Q3 mod, I didn't know about it until well after I had things underway, this shit happens :/
 
Claiming ignorance is no excuse, because the factis you know now, though the people here are being a little hard on you.

Ona side note, when I saw the title, and I was like "Oh cool, bid for power is coming to HL2"

That is coming from me who didn't even know it was a Dragonball Z mod, but knew it was a mod with high reputation elsewhere.

It's so easy to criticise others.. yeah, you're talking to people with a LOT of experience running these types of projects (well, Fenric and Pendragon... can't really blow my own trumpet) oh, and the story sounds like a rip of Rebellion..

What the hell? First, having the same name as another mod is just a bad idea. regardless of whether you think it is wrong or not, it will hurt your publicity. Second, don't start complaining when people give you critism on your mod. Like badger said these people know what they are talking about. If you truly want to make a popular game than I seriously suggest you listen to what other gamers and gamer developers have to say.
 
Sorry lads, I actually directed Nemor to these forums. What a big ****ing mistake. No offense Nemor, but u seem like a person who don't have a clue about making a mod but still wants to try anyway. But your thinkings its going to be easy. I think you ened a reality check. Gl with your recruiting and mod anyway.
 
Pendadragon, you don't know what you're on about. When I first got the mod uploaded to moddb, I was informed the same day there is already a mod called that. Yes, I used past tense, but I didn't know there was another mod called Bid For Power.

And I am listening, but when people accuse you of deliberately copying another persons name/mod idea, it's pretty annoying. I know most of you probably have more experience, I'm not doubting that but flaming me when you don't know my side of it?
 
I wasn't failing to act, I said that the people who originally thought of the name can like it or lump it, me naming it that in the first place I mean. I am changing the mod name, but I'm struggling to come up with anything decent.

I think everyone just misunderstood, me included.
 
I agree with everyone else.

You should change your mod name ASAP.

You're extremely lucky, however, that mods can't necessarily fox other mods. :p
 
I already am changing the mod, I just dunno what the hell to :S
 
Oh, and while you're changing things, change the story and gameplay ;)

Your story is a straight rip of Rebellion. Bad.

Doesn't seem like it is a ripoff of the storyline that I made. Still a little cliche though. :p
 
I've just read through Rebellion and I can't see any similarity other than China is one of America's main threats, but meh, whatever..

I have to disagree that the story is cliche or a rip from Rebellion, but everyone is entitled to their opinion..
 
This is the first forum I've been on with such negativity. I might be new to the forums but it doesn't mean I don't know what I'm doing, or know how to go about making a mod. I have alot of friends in mods such as Jurassic Park and Navy Seals who I get help from, whenever I don't know something :)
 
Yes, but the thing is, we've been here a while, we've seens tons of mods like this, you have to understand that we tend to pan mods with a hint of unorigianality (I Pendragon and Fenric) becuase we've been with the HL2 mod scene from the beginning practically.

With regards to the story Nemor, any mod aiming for a WW3 style concept is cliche, theres just too many of them.

I see you've renamed yourself to E-Force, a slightly better name, but at least it's not a ripoff.

Your weapon models need a lot of work, but the concept drawings aren't too bad :)
 
I haven't modelled long. Modeller from Navy Seals (and leader) are joining my mod as main modellers. And a guy called f00l :eek:

I've only had experience modelling little items like flares n' stuff, just learning guns now.
 
f00l's grenade model is quite good, although the texture needs work..

What experience do you have in leading a mod?
 
None, but I wouldn't have taken on the project without knowing what to do. Like I said, I have friends who have made previous mods, that's why I started one. Coz if I get stuck on something, I can always ask them.
 
Yes, but starting a mod, asking for people with experience, asking them to show work etc, when you yourself admittedly would only be an 'ideas guy' ... hmmmm
 
Here we go..

I model and map (experienced mapper but have nothing uploaded to show you).

I can model, but I'm not quite a pro at it yet, as you see.

I'm not going to sit around ordering people about, I will actually take part.
 
Good. Becuase most 'idea guy' led mods fail miserably :|

You have to remember, we're here to help you :)
 
Well, you sound like all the villains - "This is for your own/the worlds good"....
 
Heh, well, it is, if your idea gets a bashing, it might just be for a reason, and you could ened up with a better mod idea at the end of it.

I'm not a villian am I? ;(
 
No, of course you're not a villain.
You just used a too villain-used excuse...
 
Ahhh :)

Thanks for clearing that up, I'm not the sharpest knife in the box sometimes :eek:
