Requesting help for new mod (HL2 mod)!! Half-Life Hold-Out!! All positions!

Hey guys, check out my crappy site above I made for my new mod

Now for 1, I'm not a coder, which makes starting mods hard. Im just a guy with an idea... I can make music and map... but if I get a good team going I'll gladly step down as team leader. Never really believed in team leaders anyways

Hokay so details! if you didnt see the above site,

Half-life hold-out will a mod that involves a group of cooperatively players, being stationed in bunker like maps (defending destroyable doors so the CPU controlled.. zombies or whatever cant get in) There will be waves of monsters that attack the players bunker (cpu controlled), from all around, they must survive the wave or round, and their bunker and their health (and lives) will be restored every round. The waves get progressivily harder to beat untill they win the game at round... after the hardest monsters... There will be stationary turrets on the bunker and other cool stuff. Maybe new guns?? I also thought the more the more monsters the players kill, maybe they can like buy better guns or something... heh spend frag-points!) ideas and suggestions are welcome, and im very flexible with game play, and unlike most other mod leaders ive worked for, I will actually consider most suggestions As I was saying, I don't really feel I should be a team leader, (because I cant really contribute till HL2 is out) so that position is also definatly open also!!

Positions open for:

A new Team Leader!

Webmasters (FOR SURE!!)!!!

Modelers (for new guns maybe? new monsters)

Skinners (to skin stuff )

Mappers (I can map )

Musicians (so I can still be on the team lol )

Anything/anybody else that can POSSIBLY contribute,

if you can help my cause, and make us all Stupid-Rich like the Counter-strike guys, please e-mail [email protected]!!!

Also add me to MSN, if we all have MSN we can have team meetings easier

I know there will be some skepticism on lag issues, video or otherwise. Its possible. lol Sven coops doin a lotta monsters per map, so we can too

Thanks for your time guys, hope I see you soon!

Hmmm

it does resemble, but not quite, the monsters will spawn in locations away from the bunker, then head towards it in hold out, but in unreal 2k3/4 the monsters spawned randomly at player starts, that you werent near... good mode though in U2k4 i think HL players deserve a mode liek that too A few key differences:

1.monsters start at set locations then head towards the bunker.

2. Sentry guns (not cpu, the kind players control.)

3. every palyer is defending the bunker instead of just themselves

4. ability to get new/better weapons as a reward for killing more monsters (possibly)

Yeah so its kinda like that I think this mod will be funner though

I could possibly be a webmaster

I know my html, some php, uh, im good for designs in photoshop, and yea, i like doing sites

I'd say you can finish 90% of the mod gameplay wise with only a coder (and perhaps a mapper), so recruiting modellers and skinners may be a bit unnecessary. Coders aren't exactly growing on trees though.

Good luck

 

[Wilko]

well yeah I wasnt counting on finding any modelers, really, just would be a bonus to have some custom weapons ya know? Your welcome on the team if you wanna be a webmaster Goalie, anything is better than what I have now lol, e-mail [email protected] or add me to MSN if ya got it! Goooooo team!

lol yeah my bros a software engineer but hes being a sissy and wont help program/code

I will map for the mod fo sho.

looks like were in the market for a coder

if everyone helps make an awesome mod theres always a possible to get mad-rich like the CS guys Now thats tempting

 

[Goalie31]

I wish i coud be a coder, but i know only the basics to create lame-o win32 games

 

[Wilko]

"Please join this team so we can become stupid-rich like CS" <--- err yeah...

 

[Goalie31]
