Available Staff UPDATE: Jul.19.2006 - Modellers/Texturers

[thudmeizer]

As many of you know I'm part of the DoW/WA AI team **BUT** have been leading a rather subversive life garnishing various 3d people outside this community for help in ours.

I've been helping various mod teams out get the talent they need they would otherwise not be able to. Its not perfect: its human nature to get some all ready to go then they start working with the mod team and >BAM!< real-life obligations hit em and they fall off. You cannot screen for such intangibles! I try my best but ITS UP TO YOU MOD TEAMS to be as courteous and up-front as possible proving all the concept art and technical knowledge-exchange as possible. Everyone coming in that I get has 3ds MAX v6.x+ experience or at least tells me.

Now.. My most recent transaction happened with Alf but I do have 1 additional modeller/texturer/animator ready for activation.

Please try not to flood me with too many requests

I usually have modellers, riggers, texturers, and animators ready but VERY few who own a copy of DoW/WA. Thats just life.

So let me know and we can "queue you up"! :tooth:

[kindred ravens]

the crusade of redemption mod needs a modeler (many other people for other tasks aswell but modelers are quite important espeacially with infintry)

nathancooluk@msn.com

contact me or pm me

[Kjon]

The Depth of Heresy mod needs skinners and animators, to help skin and animate models...

contact me via e-mail or PM

kjon9[AT]hotmail[DOT]com

and once again Thud saves us all, good work!

[compiler]

I am in search and need of a good texturer/animator/modeler (in that order) for the mod I'm currently working on.

Thanks for proposing, Thud.

[Mit Gas]

if you have an experienced skinner (somewhere around my level would be good to ensure consistency)/animator/modeller that likes chaos, we'd be enjoying his company of course. He's gotta be insane and evil as well to fit into the team.

He however doesn't have to be nice or kind and post much in the forums, that's a huge bonus.

[hiddensmoke]

i do need a modeler for The Factions. I dont need any one advanced the mod will take a long time and completely editing will get skilled over time.

And a aniamator and texturer the usual a mod needs

i could also use an artist to help get the look on paper thus helping the modelers

please p.m. or email me at coljohan1538@hotmail.com i dont need an expert just someone with at least a little bit of know

[Palii]

The squatdom needs help in such priority order:
1. animator
2. character modeller
3. texturer

Even a single person who can help would boost our efficiency. I cant handle all the work.

Thank you Thudmeizer for this over-generous offer.

[Finaldeath]

I'd like some quick models and changes done to exsisting models for the final liberation campaign. I can be contacted by PM or finaldeath@gmail.com . Of course, I don't know how to model or animate. I was going to ask for models once I produced some beta maps so people know I'm serious, but if anyone has some spare time, they could get done now.

[Tyconius]

Dark Eldar need:
1. Modeller
2. Texturer
3. FX artist

[thudmeizer]

Now I have a queue of staff requests!

Tyconius - I sent 3 people yer way 1-2 months back? Did they all get scared when they saw how both sinster and sexy DE units are?

As for everyone else.. Okay.. so I will get moving as fast as I can. Most mod teams have enough staff although when is enough really ENOUGH?

The problem with illicting help is the simple fact: noone is getting paid. Money speaks.. Hard to motivate and keep focused without it especially if yer not passionate about the franchise. Takes a certain person..

[mel_danes]

Thud I'm not even religious and I see you as a saint. Once I finish with this major project at Uni I'll have A) more time to mod B) more skills to mod. Worry not Compiler good stuff is coming.
Your work in this area has inspired me Thud. I think I will make an general announcement in my school seeking qualified animators/texture/model people, we have some talented students in the higher grades. Getting credits in a major mod is good for a portfolio, and sure money talks but bragging rights scream. Maybe I can get one or two people to help out. It's worth a try.

[thudmeizer]

Thanks Mel.. Try my best since June on this side-recruitment project. Logisitically, hard to keep track of all the "new hires" but they are stored in my Trash bin somewhere. hehe. But hell.. if you can get some interested 3d students interested THATS THE BEST as young minds have more energy and lust for learning (to a degree). However, older we get the more experience but energy and family obligations slow things down.

Yes.. please get other 3d people in.. 3dsmax with any modelling, rigging, texturing, and animating experience! Being a committed person is a nice tangible.

[Tyconius]

Only two people joined up, and both of them don't have the time any more. Anyway, a texturer should be on top of the list. We've got a decent amount of models but we have no texturer.

[thudmeizer]

Bah! Ain't it the way? Alright.. will see what I can do.

[bloodthirster90]

an extra modeller/coder for the fantasy mod wouldn't go amiss thud! we ARE still working, but just very slowly...I know I said we were dead, but thanks to the tempest, we are actually doing something!

[hiddensmoke]

great id like to see the fantasy mod come out befor the new rts game does

[Scarabmaster]

The Empires of Ambition mod is in dire need of experienced modders. If someone would be willing to help we'd be most gratefull.

[thudmeizer]

You'll need to be more specific about your needs. What skills yer looking for?

[Scarabmaster]

We need a Modeller mainly. Without a modeller we can't get anything done. The mod hasn't made much progress to far, but if we could just have one model finished we could show to everyone that the mod isn't dead.

[p0seidon]

Like kindred said we need an extra modeler for some hard jobs of wich I can't discuss here cause they are secret.

[Chaos]

Darnit got here too late we needed a modeler for the World Eaters Mod seing as we do not have the best modelers... sigh*

[thudmeizer]

Chaos.. PM me with a contact email.. I am slowly getting to everyone.

[hiddensmoke]

well the community was never big, so its understandable.

latter is better then never :bandit:

[Romanov77]

Thudmeizer really gives oxygen to the community...Thanks for supporting all these great mods!

[p0seidon]

Thudmeizer r0xorz.

[One step away]

Thudmeizer, are you part of any official team?

[Mit Gas]

nah, thud is like a bitch that gets handed around.

[One step away]

Hum. So would he perhaps be interested in being a leader/projects manager for a kind of a team?

If he is, He could PM me for further information.

[compiler]

I wonder if there is any official team that Thudmeizer is not a member of.
Actually all the mods need Thud's team talents in AI, so I guess he is invited in every single mod out there.
Plus he is working with ShinGouki at the moment to update the Steel Legion mod to WA standard.

Thud is one of DA guys in official mod teams.
And he is also the community's unofficial cheerleader.

[LarkinVB]

Thudmeizer, are you part of any official team?

He is the boss of the skirmish AI mod. I got fired while asking for a salary increase ;-)

[thudmeizer]

You always welcome back, Larkin.. No hard feelings on the "boot out the door" policy. Corporation was just having a bad day.

[cagecrawler]

The GrotFest mod needs another modeller. We also need skinners, texturers, animators... but thats for another day.

Please help

EDIT: We have enough modellers for now, we just need some of the other people...

[Scarabmaster]

So... any chance of Empires of Ambition getting a modeller?

[Ghoyst]

The Kroot mod could use a texture artist if there is one.

Thanks for doing this, your a blessing to this community.

[thudmeizer]

Ghoyst.. Alf has plenty of new staff.. can you not take from the new personnel pool? I'm slowly getting to everyone..

[hiddensmoke]

really right now the factions mod has a modeler (a second one wouldnt hurt :moose: ) but really we need a texturer and anaimater. tahts all right now.

[kindred ravens]

thanx thud, as black tmeplar has said many times you must be like a god by now!

your modeler has helped considerably
(when u have one can i have a texturer too)

[p0seidon]

and thudmeizer thank you so much for the dude you arranged viva la steven.

[thudmeizer]

Hope they work out! More are inbound for everyone..

Edit: FD.. do you want to sticky this thread just so the community of DoW/WA modders can perhaps get the talent they need on an ongoing basis?

[kindred ravens]

great idea thud

[Finaldeath]

I'll sticky it, but if it goes off topic with discussions rather then requests, there isn't too much point in keeping it stickied

[thudmeizer]

Well.. fer sure on dat! :bandit:

Anyway.. getting to everyone slowly.. Gawd.. sometimes I wish I had even half the 3d talent some of these prospective candidates have! <sigh>

[Inert Mk2]

Adeptus Mechanicus mod requires Modeller, Skinner, Animator and a Texturer.
Don't need a Skinner, Animator and Texturer yet. So just a modeller if poss.

www.adeptusmechanicus.tk

Plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz.

[CLR]

The EoE mod needs someone that can create a fully textured model from an existing concept sketch. Essentially we're looking for someone to model and texture necron buildings in 3dsMax 7.

[thudmeizer]

Got a few in the queue now.. trying to delegate. A little slow due to pre-Christmas rush and of course every 3d artist wants to do it for money. Still.. lots of generous people who just want the challenge/glory without financial compensation. If only I could win the lottery... :omg:

[ShinGouki]

Thud I still don't have a single texture artist... dont' suppose you've found anyone interested in doing that yet? I have a whole bunch of stuff that would benefit a lot from decent textures. It's really frustrating having such a highly developed mod and not a single texture artist. The texture artist is vital to making your mod *look* good. If you look at the most popular mods out there it's largely due to the high level of detail in the textures.

I would also like a modeller who is interested in robots, mechs or vehicles to give the craftworld mod a big boost as well as to help on the relic unit for harlequins.

[CrossOrion]

Isn't Farseer Corhein(sp) Your texture Artist?

[ShinGouki]

Farseer Cohinor is a very faithful member of the mod and a good friend of mine. However by his own admission texture artist is not really the best way to describe him. He retextured some exsting eldar units admirably to make our placeholders more interesting however making a texture from scratch is a whole different kettle of fish to editing an existing texture. His assistance on the mod is greatly appreciated still but I think even he would want a more professional texture artist to work on the mod just as much as I do if not more.

[Madman]

HELL!!!! I need a modler for the my mod Call OF the Wild (visit the thread for more info or email me.) This involves modling feral/tribal orks, giant crabs, civillians, smaller squigoths without guns ontop ect. PLEASE I CANNOT EMPHASIZE HOW MUCH I NEED YOU!!!!" :flame: takes injection and calms down" thankyou.

[thudmeizer]

I checked what yer asking for: thats ALOT OF STAFF to fill. There is a narrowing queue now. Have a few more mods to get too which are in "priority sequence".
