This thread is where mappers can request models to be made for their maps, or alternatively, <i>where modellers can post worldmodels they haven't even been asked to make</i> <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Mappers, please only post here if you have something specific that you'd like to be made, not just an idea for something that <i>might be cool</i>. This thread isn't about wasting anyone's time, it's about getting Modellers and 2D Artists doing what they're good at and seeing their work on display in custom NS maps.
This could also be the place for people to try their hand at something new and more demanding. Hopefully there'll be a decent variety on the wanted list, so beginners can try something easy and the more experienced can take on the more technical commissions.
Mappers, when you post you should link to a new thread that contains the specifications of what you need, including any concept pictures. Anyone wishing to comment or work on the project can make their posts there, this thread is for listing the wanted worldmodels with their state of completion (WIP Model, awaiting UVMap, etc.). <i>Work in Progress</i> (WIP) pictures of the concept or the Model/UVMap/Texture should be posted in the specific project's thread.
<span style='color:orange'>-- Posting Format --</span>
<b>Map Name:</b> <span style='color:white'>(link to relevant thread)</span>
<b>WorldModel Wanted:</b> <span style='color:white'>(link to relevant thread)</span>
<b>Description:</b> Go into details in your WIP thread. Just a few lines will suffice.
<b>State of Completion:</b> <span style='color:red'>WIP/Awaiting</span> Model/UVMap/Skinning/Boning/Animation
<span style='color:white'><u>Direct links to downloads of various stages</u></span> (when complete, and if the parties involved in its creation agree on a public download)
<span style='color:orange'> -------</span>
Any reply not meeting these specifications should be deleted by the Mods (the only exception being notification of dead download links). When the WorldModel progresses to a new state of completion, be sure to update your post here as well.
I hope that this thread will encourage artists of the Customisation Forum to take on the challenge of more varied projects and improve their skills in the process. It may also provide a database of finished WorldModels, usable in any custom NS map.
It should also be noted that all of the later batch of Official maps started out as custom maps. Who knows? Maybe this could provide the opportunity for your work included in an official NS map!
