Hi everyone !!!

The next beta of GpFinalWar is coming soon, with shroud, units building and more stuff... The program is now almost ready for a skirmish mode, but I'm going to need a lot more gfx... So if someone's interested in working on that game with me and Octavious, feel free to PM me !!

Mainly there is need for gfx (units, background), but I'm also looking for someone that could code..
 
Dont think i got a reply on the last post but, u cant build unit yet right? so the building dont really do much then? Great work though...
 
Alright, So I'm not the best modler in the world, but MAYBE I could help out. I'm still learning, though. My style differs from what you would expect to use in a war game, but I could possibly make a few tanks and stuff if you want.

and as for the coding, I'm really new to GP32 (can't do much more than draw lines on screen ATM, lol) and I have only a very limited knowledge of C++ anyway (only enough to make console windows and stuff like that....) but I can do quality VB6 progs though........., so best to ask someone else with that.


Hope I can help a bit, just post here or PM if u need anything.
 
Ok 1st of all thanks for proposing your help !!

Sorry ShadowHarlequin if I missed your post, I didn't see it.

So about the gfx, yes I'm going to need terrain blocks, right now I'd prefer grass / towns with roads, dirt roads, and buildings, houses... But I'll take everything !

As I said the programs is almost finished for the skirmish mode (I'm gonna release the 0.3 beta end of the week), so you will be able to build units, repair them, deploy them...

clone, you might not be the best modler but from hat I've seen you do really better than me. I'll contact you by PM.
 
Wish I could help dude but I only know how to make 2D stuff. This is really great. RTS's take ages to get boring :)
 
Well, kotd, the game is in 2D !! I need 3D models to have realistic vehicles for rotation, but for the the other stuff it's all in 2D !! There are lots of work on the map gfx for example.
 
yes, We have some terrain, but I tried it on the gp32 ( with out lightening the image by gamma adjust or whatever, and it looked a litle crappy. It appears that the Red Alert terrain ( grass is what we will use at the moment ) is a little to dark for the screen in my opinion. I made an image of a red alert like game using nothing but RA images and it was pretty dark and I fear the lightening might lose some image quality. So, we need origional artwork that would go with the current grass shade. I will start working on some origional stuff soon, but due to construction at my new house ( we are moving soon ) I have been busy. I also am glad to inform you that MOST bugs have been worked out of this release in the last few weeks. Unit construction goes off without a hinge and the shroud has been a wonder in all but one case ( that problem came from a issue with the randomness of sructures, but is solved now ) If anyone can help us please email me or mATkEUpON with info. Thx.

any questions?
I can answer most of them
 
Ok what exactly would you want me to make? I can make some stuff if I can spare some time :)
 
Mostly, if you "push pixels", what would be interesting to me are map gfx, and buildings, as they're not much animated. Maybe some better looking pointers also.
 
Well, off of the top of my head, a Nice refinery like structure, but there dosnt have to be much emphasis on the docking area due to a new concept with harvesting. Also, a helipad would be nice and maybe some new powerplant design that is more square , and a small silo would also be neat
Please note, the final decision belongs to Matkuepon on what gets used, and thanks for all the help
also, please try to stay with the mood we have in place with current structures

Thx

That's the spririt !!! In fact, as I'm gonna need 2 complete teams for the skirmish mode, I'll take everything, because one of the teams simply has no buildings yet !!
