  1. Wow, I seem to have steered a lot of you to this project. lawl. It's good to know someone actually clicked the link in my signature! Where at? AOE3H? AOMH? biggrin.gif
    AoE3H. I was not big on AoM, as you know, Mythos. I popped up there occasionally to get downloaded scenarios, maps, and scenario making advice. I said little and read alot though. But it was when I encoutered you in the AoE3HG future games thread, before I signed up to AoA, and I was bored.
  2. Mythos, could whoever made the engine/ whoever among you is best at this pretty much pull apart the engine and turn it into a previewer effectivley? Like totally change it so that it's nothing like the original, and you can just look at your texture and models and make them move around?. I don't know if this is possible, but it would be worth asking.

  3. I heard that a Beta Developers packet, as such, with a few meshes, a stripped down Actor Viewer and Actor Editor and so on, so people could play around with their own textures, learn how to make them and so on, was being debated.

    I say that this is a really great thing for everyone who can do this stuff and wants to play with 0AD, and those who can't, but are desperate to learn, LIKE ME!

    How about everyone who's interested joins in and posts here to show that the community out here likes this and that it should be done! ;)

  4. Hey Mythos, sorry, but I can't upload anything right now (cough *modem issues* cough), I'm having to surf on another PC, my disc drive died and so did my laptop battery. I don't mean to moan or anything, but currently, I have no way of getting you my shield images that I was messing with, and I'm about to sit 7 exams, so I won't be fixing anything for a couple of weeks, along with finishing my Celtic civ design for Age of Antiquity. Till then...

  5. All jokes aside, I am a historian myself. It's just that it requires relatively little skilled when compared to the sheer amount of effort and skill it takes to do rendering, programming and the like.
    Being a historian rewuires an awful lot effort too, as you will know from experience, and a different sort of ability.

    Anyway

    Learn modelling in some 3d program compatible with 0AD format (3DS, Dnas was also speaking about Blender and I consider it better option due to price) and become modeller or texturer.
    Pricewise, what's Blender like? I know of 3DS from a little modding experiance with Morrowind, sadly not applicable here, but it's not cheap.
  6. Show up, keep in touch, tell friends, sign up to test when you can, download and help distribute the game when its released, or be a historian. tongue.gif

    Okay, so maybe not the last one. This game will be nothing without an active and faithful community. That's where you come in.

    Ok, fair enough. I realise this but anyway...

    What's wrong with being a historian? If you need help in history/research, that is something I can do, and pretty well too. Some of us (e.g me) like that sort of thing.
