<div class="IPBDescription">For a secret project</div><i>Foreword: I got this OK'ed by Nem after I bribed him w/ a high-class prostitute</i>

I am in need of a someone who can do basic modelling/skinning/animating on the Source engine for help with prototyping some secret project(s) I have in mind.

All work done will be entirely for prototypes to make sure I'm doing various things right on the code end of things, and thus, won't ever be released. In fact, some of the stuff I'll be asking you to do will be relatively secret, hush hush type stuff.

Since this is all for prototyping, your work doesn't need to be production quality (i.e. it can be crap), you just need to know the technical side of things to get it done.

Vital skills needed:
- Knowledge of Source modelling/skinning/animation, from creation in the editor to compiling, to getting in game.
- Ability to communicate w/ programmer who knows diddly squat about modelling
- Speed; I will need to have the models crudely made, crudely skinned, and crudely animated to get them done asap.
- Patience; Since I'm trying new things, you may be asked to scrap everything and start over, or to otherwise dramatically change everything you've done

Remember, this is all for prototyping, and your work won't ever be released.

If anyone is interested in helping me out, please catch me on IRC or email me at <a href='mailto:doomaniac@espionagemod.com'>doomaniac@espionagemod.com</a> sometime so we can talk more about what I need.

Thanks guys.

    Wow, what are the odds that you post a thread calling for modellers/animators 7 minutes I post a thread calling for mappers? O_o

    For the record, I suck at both, so I'm useless <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Sucking at skinning is no problem. The skin can be in MSPaint for all I care.

    Maybe if you know some peeps who don't frequent OT you could point em this way? :P

    I'd like to help, but I'm already doing something similiar with my friend in his hl2 mod. But yeah ask in the custimization forum. Try on some other forums as well.

    <a href='http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/member.php?action=getinfo&userid=118' target='_blank'>Faceman</a> from the Day of Defeat forums might be able to help you, if you're willing to leave the boundaries of Natural Selection's forums. If memory serves, Faceman does modeling, skinning, and animating, but I might be totally wrong there. I don't know if he even has yet to move to Steam's system yet.

    Still, worth an email to find out, if you need the help.

    On second thoughts, my housemate may be able to help. He's been learning softimage (i think it's called) at uni, but he hasn't ever compiled for source. Second problem would be that it's assessment time here in university land and were getting owned. Well, we will see if he see this, and see if he responds
