Hey everyone
I would like to get a mod rolling along, and would just liek to shoot the idea out there and let people know abnout it. Basically it will be either a MOD for half-life 2, or STALKER, it is looking like HL2 will be the game becuase of Stalkers bad release and bugs.
Basically the mod is at 0% right now, nothing has started, but I need people to show interest, and people to join up, and help with anything they can. I am going to need a variety of help on this one, I can use Hammer well, but not amazing, and same with photoshop and 3DS max, and lightwave, im not expert at anyone of them, but I know how to use them, and I can make secondary resourses, what will need to be filled are things like weapons modler, animators and texture artists. Not much experience is required, Ive been in mod teams before with some pretty good artists, so I know what to expect.
If you are interested then just send me a quick little show of your work, and Ill get back to you, NO prior mod experience is required, but I would like atleast one other member to have been part of a previous mod.
As you may have figured out the Mod will be called "realTRUTH", and will be based I am hoping in the streets and country side of the
UK.(I myself am from Canada, so I am hoping a member or maybe just even anyone that can help to take pictures of landscape and areas in the UK) I have already ploted out the general layout of the Mod, and what will happen, and am currently working on concept art and finishing off the story line, but if you become a member, I would like your full input and what changes should be made.
So the game is a response to basically all of the environmental frenzy that has been going on for the last couple of years, and they style of game will be chaptered in a fasion where chapter 1 will be based in one moment (the past) and chapter 2 will be based in the present day, the game alternating as you go though it to uncover old facts, but to see new events. The game will alternate "realities" if you will like that.
So basically, you start off in the past world, a world taken over by the enviromentalists. You live in london, and picture everythign being white, all of the city being painted white, your cloths, your furniture, everything is to be given off as pure, and everything you touch is clean. The story goes that everything you eat is clean, you play as a characted called John 11-2B, because having different names is unclean, and therefore there are only a handlful of different names for millions of people.
Flash ahead to the next chapter, you are in the same city, but 10 years later, everythign is covered in grim, everythign is dirty, you are fighting with the rebelion, trying to over through the government. Picture the white landsacpe all tarnished and black now.
The game will go through liek this, you going through the past in yoru mind or sleep, as you try to unlock mysteries that will help you rebel agaisnt the government. Then, flipping back to fighting, and going about your day in an fast passed action. Essentially, the past will be the puzzle solving time, and the present will be the fighting time, hopefully providing a very nice balance. ( If all goes well, hopefully what you do in the past will affect certain events in the future)
The story is not completly done yet, and I am still drawing up some concept stuff, hopefully the idea of the game goes well with everyone, and I can get some postive feed-back and support, any help would be appreciated obviously. I did not pitch the entire plot of the story yet just to see what the first general reaction is, I want to get some people on the team before I start releasing everything, then we can go out in a public manner with updates and so on. Thanks for taking the time to read this btw.
Currently we bassically need everything:
Atleast 3 good modlers, who can either do weapons or characters. ( Dont be affraid to apply even if you can only make objects and stuff, your still valuable to us)
Map Designers, REALLY need this one right away, I dont think my skills in Hammer will cut it for what I see, please, anyone with experience, apply.
Texture Artists. Need some general texture skills, nothing to to fancy is required.
A Manager to manage all of the PR and stuff (orginization skills)
Anyone good in photoshop, Max, Miya, or Hammer!!!
In the FUTURE
We will need some coders, and animation experts (expert as in anybody who can do it!)
Please help out, this will be a lot of fun, im excited with this mod idea. Contact me if you have any questions or concerns:
