Massive Black has a new Game 3D and Design forums-

[Jason Manley]

We are looking for Moderators to help with posting structure and ready the new community sister site to conceptart.org before we open the floodgates. It is focused on education and resources for those interested in making video games. It will become a major industry teaching and learning site just like this one.

if anyone is interested in helping us with the foundation to the new community, please let me know.

I'd be willing if you guys will have me.

[JoshuaTheJames]

I would love to help. That is if I haven't been branded an Eternal Scourge.

I've learned much in the Work Place since I have left art college and would love to share whatever I can.

I guess I could help out a bit if you want. I already moderate over at the Polycount forums, and I think I'm fairly knowledgeable about games development in general.

[oracrest]

this sounds pretty fun. Not sure what kind of time something like this would entail, but I would love to help out any way I can :yayca:

[S.C. Watson]

I'd be happy to help, but I don't know jack about 3d games, other than playing the couple I have... >:| :S

[Jason Manley]

I have a ton of free time while i'm at work...

And moments like now...

[Zaknafain]

If you need another one, I would be glad to help out. I already moderated several forums (smaller ones though).

[talmir]

Never been a mod. Not a good artist.. But I have dabbled in coding games in 3d and 2d (OpenGL and SDL). I'd be happy to help. I have lots of free time.

[Fozzybar]

Shoot me one pm also...just to check what it's about...maybe i can provide some help :)

[Red_Rook]

dunno much about 3d but still id love to help :)

[blankslatejoe]

I'd love to help out. I'm pretty active on all the other gameart forums and have experience with 3dstudio max, Lightwave, and a little XSI. I'd love to get in on something on the ground floor.

I sent ya a PM, Jason!

[Jason Manley]

thanks all!!


I sent you some pm's with a bit more details.

if anyone else is interested in helping us get everything right before we release it to the rest of the world, begin our marketing push, press releases, advertising and sending it to everyone we know, please let me know

If you need help with anything, let me know. I doubt you will need my help, but if I can do anything for this community, let me know.

[simfonie]

Is there a programming head/position or something? I am a Computer Science major and have a varied and massive programming portfolio spanning multiple languages.

Slight understatement. Much respected this man is (Said in Yoda voice)

[Slash]

I would also be glad to help out in any way i can. I know a little about a lot when it comes to game development.

//edit: GREAT initiative btw! much respect.

[Madman!]

yea! I'm already a member there and I don't know anything about 3D. I'd be willing to help out..I'm on here everyday, but like I said I know nothing about 3D stuff..but now maybe I'll learn.

oh and I run joemadfan.com

[Denart]

I would love to help! Fire a PM my way Jason. thanks :D

I'm the creator and admin of the official Frazetta forum so I have experience in starting and maintaining a community ;)

[Interceptor]

I moderate an art and VG forum on another site... but I'd love to give that up in lieu of a Massive Black site. Just tell me where to sign!

[Pixeldragoon]

I would be willing to take a position here if someone wanted to switch over, because I dont think I'm qualified for 3d stuff over there :D

[0kelvin]

I just wanted to say I'm totally psyched for this.

ROCK!

[OLSEN]

I have plenty free time to take something new on, so if you're still looking for people I'd be happy to help in any way I can, either here on CA or on the new forum. I'd probably clean your bathroom too if you asked me. :)

[Jason Manley]

if anyone else wants to help set this up with me, I would appreciate it. We are setting up the quality threads to set an example of how the place works...it is taking some building. I want to make sure that quality is numero uno. Thanks to everyone for their assistance so far. It is coming along well.

[cartoonfox]

umm, i would be more than happy to like help look after the place if you wanted. i dont know anything about 3d though... *shrugs* helps here if you need it ^-^



peace :7up:

[wassermelone]

I'd love to help. Unlikely as you have so many clamoring for the chance ;)

[egerie]

Hey guys. I'd like to have more info too Jason. I don't know about creds but I'm also in the industry and teach and stuff. Oh and I've been around here for ages. This might prod me out of this torpor and share what the heck is going on on the art side of things at a first party dev with colleagues and aspiring artists willing to join.

[strych9ine]

Shoot me a pm, I'd be glad to help out.

[Robert.B]

thats cool.

[Grooveholmes]

I dont mind helping out.. I plan to be pretty active over there, as active as my work schedule permits.

[Jason Manley]

we are doing some tweaks to the system...the new forums will go down for a bit as we add some new tech.

im stoked. hehehe...we get closer by the day to having the new tech on the site. simple stuff but adds up to this place being rad.

[blankslatejoe]

its fun over there.

[Red_Rook]

its fun over there.

agreed :) its where all the cool kids hang out ;)

[MoP]

sure it is :wink:

jason, can you check your PM's over there? cheers :)

[dCepT]

I might have overlooked something here.. but is the site up? If so I totally missed the URL :)

[Jason Manley]

we are holding off releasing the link until we have the database tied together with ca. my fear is transferring so many threads should we have to move them to the new database...so for now we wait while programmers do their wonderful duty.

Will this game design forum be seperate from conceptart?
Or will the uder satabase be the same or is it just another "part/section" of conceptart?
Why does it need to be tied together with Conceptart?
Is there some partthat is shared by both forums/sites?
