Looking for:

I am looking for a mod thats not exactly the best mod in the world but a good group of people who can have a laugh and are sort of anime based. I am really very much into anime and anything very original. If anyone would like to start a mod with me, maybe u have an idea or something else. Then contact me.

hiya Ichi, i think we at Hell Blaze would be interested in both your talents. as a Modeler, mainly for cars at the moment (very nice by the way), but as a general modeller after that. and probably as a mapper, although im not all clued up on that side. aniways, read our about page, on the site, and if your interested contact me by email, come on MSN ( same email ) or PM me here. :cheers:

We could really use ur vehicle moddeling skills ;)

Hey, if you want an origonal mod to work on check out www.defensecommand.com

It seems your pretty good at modeling off of front, top, side views etc so you might want to check out the Media section and brows the pics. I've recently redone most of the drawings in a CAD program so they're better for modeling.

I can produce those to any detail level (within reason) or at additional elevations (front, back, other side) you need.

You know Pendragon, the mod I'm working on, has a pretty big story to go with it, much of the backstory for example wouldn't work in an actual game.. But I got to thinking the other night, it would be pretty cool to "film" the backstory in the source engine, instead of try create it as another game.. So the original game would be there, and also a "movie" to tell the story.. The world would be all done and dusted, many characters, locations and so on would already be built for it. Voices, sounds etc. Be just a case of filling in the blanks and putting it together

Could be an interesting joint project sometime in the future if you were interested, atleast a huge chunk of it would already be done, much less daunting right :).. course depends on just how well that sort of thing would work in the source engine. Wouldn't be for a long time though, first things first I gotta work on the game heh
 
Hostile Freedom is always scouting for new talent to add to the, already solid, development team. Contact Nostradamus, he has taken over project lead.
 
First off, is your name in ref to ichi the killer?.....second if that is in fact the case ....I WIN! but seriously...i have the begginings of a mod in the works, that has an eastern (oooh mysteriously vague) theme. Not anime exactly, but it might be up your alley nonetheless. PM me if you want to know more.
 
man

man this is sad how their all scrambling for one modeler. Its kinda like the brawl in the matrix reloaded where the 100 smiths pile on the one neo. Now ichi is pretty good, but the best way to get members is not by pleading. If you have to kiss someones *** to get them to join your mod, that may mean you'll have to continue kissing up to them to keep them on your team. And if your trying to make a mod, the last thing you need is to deal with your members using kid gloves.
 
There is a limited talent pool, especially this early, for the modification scene for Half Life 2. "Scrambling" as you put it, is an essential part in building a development team. It shows effort. You, obviously, know nothing about team recruitment. Ichi is offering his services to the best overall and most promising mod, which is why there are a dozen teams here "pleading" to get his attention. They are simply providing some fundamental information regarding their project and a link back to their homepage. This isn't like the Reloaded scene, this is more like one man in a room full of busty blonde women with Grade A bodies, who can only pick one.

so the one with the biggest tits in it wins?
 
I was thinking more along the lines of the, so god help, ass.
 
There could be a vacancies/jobs section placed on this site. Like in the style of a newspaper. People can have ads placed on it in different sections. Vacancies, .... for hire, misc help. So on. When someone submits a new ad they choose how long its there for, the appearance, limited word count. And for some of the mods they could take out whole "page" ads if they can make it look good enough.. or perhaps for the bigger ads they have to agree to display a large halflife2.net banner back to this site on their pages

oh and were you just calling me an ass?

Not really because I don't care about tits. Its more of a 'who i would rather have sex with' Because I am not looking for the biggest and best flashing mod with 100's of models already modeled with a proffesional team, don't get me wrong that would be good. but if they had a crappy idea and I didn't actual like it. Then it would be boring. I am not joining a mod to because uber popular and make money and because the next cs. I just want to model for a team get alone, have a laugh. Generating something u like gives u a big sense of acumplishment to me anyway. So even if the mod never even gets released to the public or only like 4 people download it. Then tbh I don't really care. What I am trying to say is that basiclly tits don't always have to be big for u to like the woman.

I like the whole 50 woman in room thing. But thats just a male thing :P

Stich, I have over 20 members in my mod, and they are all very skilled.
Thats 5 programmers, 6 modelers, an animator, 4 mappers and 3 concept artists. Do *not* talk to me about how I know nothing about recruitment.

Well, the size of the team doesnt really matter... its how you and your team work together.

I work best with a team of ~10.
 
Cerberus he was right and it is hard to get people to join your mod. You might have just been lucky or have a coding background. As soon as any mod has a certain number of coders and a good idea behind them with a well astablished idea then they will find it easy to get people. Also your wrong about thinking everyone is piling on me like neo. Because I am not overwelmed at all. The female tit theory is a lot more closer and acurate. Your mod seems very good and good luck to u. If i could choose any mod to join it would proberly be yours, mainly because your ideas and concept are so much like anime. I love anime a new ideas. I don't think u are recruiting so i won't ask. But good luck with your mod.
 
That's nothing. It is a fact that half if not all of your team members have joined your project based on the concept and not your uber-recruiting skills. Cyberpunk is a good theme, I would have joined just for that facet alone. And congratulations on the 20 members, which isn't something to glorify, but to fear. Managing 20 people is a tough job.

Personally I would have stuck with 10 and if, I stress the word if, needed more than I'd bring it up to 13. I'd also hire an assistant or someone to help me manage all of this talent. That way I can ensure my fans and the rest of my team that we are stable and will deliver what we intended to.

Good luck on the project, and I didn't mean to come off with hostility or anything, I was just being myself. :) -- I once told my mother that if I was an assassin I'd assassinate myself, based on that quality.

u said that people only joined because of the concept art and the fact that its cyberpunk. So wouldn't u class that as 'uber-recruiting' skills as u put it. U kinda contridicted your self.
 
Recruiting and the concept have nothing to do with each other. How can I be contradicting myself? Recruiting is your ability to make someone want to join your project. You're trying to sell it to everyone you possibly can. The concept is what the mod is about, how everything is laid out, the mechanics, theme and all that. I don't see where you can confuse the two.
 
yes, but use your head. no one is going to join a mod without concept and even U! your self said people would join his mod with his concept alone. So tbh his recruiting way is putting things in peoples face and have a very high quality to his work. He doesn't have to do anything really now in recruiting because he got some very high quality work and just waited for people. So he is a uber l33t recruiter because it looks to me like he has one of the best teams I have seen yet. Its just he did his recruiting in a different way. Just because u are not asking somone to join your mod that don;'t mean u are not using methods to recruit. So u did techniqually contriduct your self.
 
size

I made the decision that a larger team with redundant members was better overall for the mods survivability. If I got some life threatening disease and had to quite the mod, I'd do everything to have the mod live on despite my absence.

Besides theres alot of cyberpunk mods out there as well.
Entropy
Fall of Sicyon
The corporations
Neotokyo(favorite rival)
 
You are right, I guess I'm going on other peoples experiences rather than my own. And I see where you are coming from.

I am still having doughts about your idea. I think its a good idea having a super realistic game, but to keep the flow of this game well and fun to play with be very hard. I would much rather join a more futureistic mod like corporate anarchy. Its hard to choose a mod to join because u truely don't know whats going to happen. I am not bothered about the skill of the team I just want to make a game that I want to actually play and super realistic games are not my thing.
 
Um.... Yeah

Sorry for jumping in and asking after the subject's already changed, but you mentioned wanting to do an Anime mod in the beginning of the thread.

Well, so far, 4 of us are doing a Mobile Suit Gundam mod based around the One Year War of 0079. This takes place during the series of 08th MS Team and the original Mobile Suit Gundam. No Gundam Wing or G Gundam here.

We want a pretty realistic protrayal of Mobile Suit Combat, and we're aiming for the implementation of a weight system (limiting what you outfit your MS with before you go into battle.)

Also, to be more ambitious, we're attempting a full single-player experience with it. We already have Missons planned out, creating maps as I type. Quite a few weapon models are done, and the first MS is just now getting finished.

Well, thanks for listening. BTW, your AI_Girl model looked alot like the spider tanks (Can't remember their correct name) from Ghost In The Shell. Very nice. One of my favorites. :cool:
