Hey where is the starcraft thread anyway? And why can't I change my profile or pass for that matter. My avatar is out of season u know ;D. And I don't like the "apprentice" thing hanging over my name. :

Happy new year everyone !! Thanks to Teradyn I now have the starcraft bundled book and I've read the full story, and it's a very detailed and beautifull one (LOVE IT) I'm already working as I said on the story and the models, to be franc I've been slacking off lately, with the holydays and stuff and I need to know where we stand on the staff, whos in and who has any modding skills and want's to join.

I'm here... I tend to agree with Ismael what does the studio director do? Oh and a happy new year to everybody. I would go under the designers If I we're to choose anything let me just talk to Cain first.

Thanks . That is somewhat cinematic quality(and i think I should rename that to diseased tissue) I donno if I can squeeze that same degree of detail in the textures, but... I'll try . I've added you to my MSN list so we can talk some more, in fact I would encourage everyone on this thread to share they're MSN or Yahoo Id's.

OK !!! I love coders... err... programmers... they are EXTREMLY usefull. Yeah I think it's a very good ideea but I thought we already agreed on the codenames issue, and about gmail, well it's a good thing but yahoo also gives large accounts bout 1Gb anyway I do have a gmail account. Oh! and I'm glad we agree on the privacy of this thread (account based access).

Geez, Fosh !!! They're not the CIA u know... and still every plumming has it's leaks you know, maybe we should all pull out our super snoopers into action then...

Ain't it the truth... And JediIgor how can blizzard know what's on my hard drive?? Hmmmm..????? Amin and God bless.... we'll need it

Oh cmon... I thought we've been over this before, it will lose the starcraft feel if we don't keep to it... aren't you guys sick and tired of them to tell what you can and cannot do?? I mean they feel threatened by a bunch of kinds I mean that's a laugh... I mean blizzard is an industry giant they make some of the best games out there... Come on !!... and they don't let us put together a harmless mod?? They really should learn to let some things go I mean what other company does that?? Give me examples. And regarding the privacy of this thread I'll speak to Cain see if he can help me on this.

Oh... you guys are great support... and yeah I think I'm surely not the only one working in the field of graphics, I mean there's the guy who worked on the Warlords mod and I hear he just registered on this forum so here's your chance to help out... as we already agreed we're going to make this a private section and since there's no reward from blizzard for rating out on honest working moders I think it's safe to assume that we are all going to keep this to ourselves , and here's where you come in... since this will be a private section no one but us will be able to see this thread... and you'll probably wonder "where are we going to get the crew if no one knows about this?" you, and I insist on this beeing a 200% volunteer work, will browse the forum and see who might be able to join us... of course taking into account the skills they have, but not giving away anything and contacting them on the subject thru Private Messaging... how's that sound??? I think this way we get this matter classified.

Wow... Teradyn... I couldn't have said it better myself... and that's why I'm insisting on the modelling issue... I have already started working on some but any help whould be appreciated so moders out there unite. And regarding what you said about not seeing any disclaimers that whould prevent a mod based on their storyline to be created on another engine... well don't worry they always find a way to shut you down...

That's a very good suggestion but as Darkmark said it losses the Starcraft feel .... but hey I'm going to get busy modelling I really wanna do this on the EAW engine... it's shows potential... and look on the bright side at least now, Darkmark, will be able to finish his exams, given the release date. Oh and don't worry about the story, I know it by heart.

So who want's to join??? Any moding skills are apreciated.

But you haven't fully read the disclaimer it says that you have to use their own games and since starcraft is a very old game with no support for 3d, and warcraft just doesn't have the mood for starcraft it's practically illegal to mod it on a different engine besides their own... haven't u read anything so far ??? And think of this as an interesting scenario... we make a mod on the EAW engine and blizzard hasn't released anything about a future starcraft 2... ok... say we have a big success and a higher quality then the rest of the mods out there... starcraft fans will want to play this mod and so they will buy EAW in order for the mod to work and that's where blizzard looses costumers... so you see where you say it's harmless to release a mod, blizzard says it's illegal, and it all revolves around the profit.

This might come a little late but how's mine... drew&colored it myself... I'm working on the christmas spirit...

OK then... let's modify all our posts that contain words that whould give any connection to the game, just use codenames: zea**t ter**n pro***s ze*g well that's not exactly codenames, but anyway under that format. Or ask Cain to make this a hidden section. And don't worry about google i've tried this: "NMA Project - Starcraft: Invasion of Char" and it gave out no result... I've even added swempireatwar and still nothing.

Good point Cain... That's exacly what I've been trying to say.. we must keep anonymousy (I hope I got that right ), the creators I mean. Sooo.. no credits... Yeah and ok... we've been chating... and... chating, but I don't see any new additions to the crew... I mean who's in so far?? I wana get this mod started. I'm already working on the models... trying to model the battlecruiser.

That's Myzrael , not Ismael......

Yes i've read it : But the thing is they keep mentioning "our games" and that'a a problem. Yeah... Well say we do it, what then?? They'll track us down and maybe shut down the forum, we have to be very carefull about the distribution. And Darkman fire away... we could use ideas.

Yeah but the ideea is how many 3d artist are there willing to joing our "secret" mod for example I haven't visited this forum for a while I don't know who's willing do join, and Cain yeah that's a good ideea with the zerg, coz in fact the mod is named Invasion of Char, and that's the zerg homeworld . I was thinking of putting the story somewhere in the future starcraft, if you remmember correctly Duran, Kerrigan's sidekick was a beeing far more powerfull then anything they've ever met before and he spoke of powerfull agents scattered all over the galaxy ready to awaken, agents with a devastating power, also a Xel' Naga creation if I recall correctly , and if they don't fight toghether they don't stand a chance against them, this was an interlude between zeratul and duran, it was a secret stage it only works if you play broodwar without cheats . And anyway somewhere on that line, we could really use our imagination with those agents maybe even give blizzard a pointer on how to make them for their future starcraft .

Well I think it whould be a good ideea if we only did terran vs protoss, coz the zerg involves a lot of organic modelling and animation and that's not entirely easy to achieve, protoss and terran have a lot of vehicles and spaceships, anyway this my opinion. I always wanted to see a starcraft in which the battlereuisers and the carriers can get it on in high orbit and the vehicles and infantry on the planet surface. It gives me goosebumps already . Oh and I warned you it's short

Hy! I'm Myzrael and Cain tiped me off on this project... Well I quess it's sensless to say I'm a big Starcraft fan and that I want a 3d version of it and I was hoping to join in. I tried to replicate their cinematics a few years ago... just for the fun of it and here it is, you must keep in mind I was a noob in 3d graphics then so... http://myzrael.xhost.ro/pics/wraith_angle.jpg http://myzrael.xhost.ro/pics/sentinels.jpg and this is the link to the attempted cinematic http://myzrael.xhost.ro/index.php?filexx=./animations Of course the wraith is the cinematic version so it's a high poly model but that can be easily rectified. I also do concept art, you can find some here: http://myzrael.xhost.ro/index.php?filexx=./pics and as you guys said we must keep this a secret until we have a playable version at least. If the pics won't load just right click them "view image"

Wow!!!! Man blizzard must be getting a s**t lot of money... 40 bucks a person and think of all those people out there... I hate the concept of paying to play a game...

Say did anyone know that a WoW radio station is out ???? just follow the links on the main website. It only works with winamp so far... Youki just out of curiosity how much are you paying for your WoW account ?

Yes but what about game balance?? Seeing how there are land battles now. I mean for example I hope they don't follow EA's footseps like in their BFME and create almost invincible heroes, or unbeatble infantry. For what it's worth I think it will have an impact on how future SciFi RTS's will be made, I for one was impressed in the details of the sceneries for both land and space battles, so it's probably gonna make an impresion, I don't know about history . By the way nice to see you Cain, this has turned out to be a great forum, keep it up ( say i've finished some of my work may be yo u could take a look http://myzrael.xhost.ro they're under the two folders). Regards Alex.

Vader are you having flashbacks? Thanks for the support but hey that's like 20 post ago. By the way do you like my avatar, I drew it myself.
