Hey everyone
« on: October 27, 2007, 04:04:38 AM »
Hey everyone,

Im new to the forum here, and had a few questions. I'm really new into designing environments with sandbox2, and am really willing to take alot of time to learn the basics and even the advanced stuff too. I have alot great ideas in my head for map ideas and just need a blank sheet of paper (sandbox2) and a pen (the basics) if you get my drift; but mainly I came here because I admire the Battletech community and have been a Mechwarrior player / fan ever since 1993. It was really sad to see the game die off after Mechwarrior 4.

 I recently saw your motivating mod site and was very intrigued. With Cryengine2 you really have a great tool to make your mod dreams come true. Unfortunately for me I'm no designer, seeing that I've never had hands on with these tools, but I'm very interested and very motivated to make a map with proper guidance. I know I'm no candidate for your modding team but I would love to learn and maybe in the future become an asset of some sort to the team. I love what your doing here, it's a big passion of mine and I really felt the need to express my thoughts with you. I hope all the best with you mod and your team im sure that is growing in numbers daily.

On a final note, I was curious to know whether or not you guys had some sort of Ventrilo/Team Speak server in which I could get involved. Maybe indulge in some of this designing stuff! Lastly, a little about myself, I'm a 22 year old male, I'm a helicopter crewman in the navy and I've got tons of motivation and discipline. Hopefully with a little work and time I too can become a great environmental designer.

Thank you so for your time!

Aaron

great to have you on the forums! Another military man ;) I am also in the Military though different element I am a Naval Electronic tech and there are others around here in the mob as well.

As far as mapping goes level design is a very very difficult aspect of game design. We would love to see what you can do with the SB2 editor and since the demo is out now feel free to create anything and show us some of your work in the "join the team" section. We do use a Teamspeak server but unfortunately I can't share the info at present because of ALOT of discussion that goes on regarding issues that are under "Non-Disclosure-Agreement".

The forums is really the best place to keep discussions going :D anyways we REALLY look forward to seeing what you can do with SB2!

Haha, well we'll see what I can do as far as learning fast, and throwing something really good together. But since I have almost no experience.. it could be awhile. As always Ill try my best to work with what I got!
