E-Mail:johndoe@aol.com

Preference:INI Editor

When stating your preference, it is meant which job you would like to work on. If you like editing the Rules and ArtIni files, enter as an INI Editor. If you prefer making textures, enter as a Texturer. In one week entrees will be paired up randomly in order to form a 2 modder team. This will make the mod more well rounded and will help to make it more successful. If there is somebody that you absolutely could not work with, or are having a problem with, send me an IM here.

Preference: 3Drelated.*NOTE* I Won't work alone at anything introlike(bad experience with such)

[Frodo]

cool, thanks for signing up anders. you get your own category. ;) note you can make a request to work with somebody though i can not garuntee that you will be paired with that person.

[Cyborg]

my experience in ini editing is very sparse...

I don't know why I signed up, but I need atleast one companion if I am to do 3dtasks as introes and stuff.(Because it is impossible to do alone :()

[Frodo]

well, there are a few people that do both ini and textures like myself, so you wouldn't have to do work that you aren't good at. what you could also do 3d is xbf editing using adrians viewer, it has improved alot since it's first release.

[Cyborg]

seem to fit me well.

[Frodo]

Frodo, will you be entering?

Maybe if there is someone on there own

[Frodo]

if there is an odd number of entrees i will enter. i would like to participate, but it depends on who signs up. it should turn out ok. the teams will be anounced this saturday, March 8. I will contact some people and see if they will participate so that there will be more mods.

[Apollyon]

Woah. That's really pretty soon...

[Frodo]

ah,maybe i should wait. that is really to soon. next friday, march 14 then.

[Cyborg]

this sounds exciting ;D

[Apollyon]

ah,maybe i should wait. that is really to soon. next friday, march 14 then.

Well I reconsidered and now think it would be good on Saturday. It is, of course, up to you though =). (I've already got a fairly good idea of what mod I will make).

[Frodo]

if 8 people sign up then a date will be set. but right now there is 5(6)

[Apollyon]

Alright.

[Apollyon]

Oh and also, should the XBF editing be done by the texturer (indeed like all graphics editing)? That is up to the team i guess. but idealy the texturer yes.

[Inoculator9]
