new mod

[Bogyman]

hi all!

I am going to do a mod(for Rome Total War) but for the moment we are only two in the team and we are looking for:
Mapers :

Coders:

Scripters:


Modellers:

and

Skinners:

you must know a little french please.
the mod will be from -350 BC till the start of the roman empire, or
at the start of the barbarian invasion

sorry for my english

thank you.

soooo you are starting a fairly large new Mod with no experience in any of the fields you are asking help in. Maybe you should rethink think this.

[Bogyman]

how can you know i don't have any experience?
me and my friend know coding and scipting, but we need help.

[DisgruntledGoat]

I'm gonna be frank with you, most people aren't frank with people on these boards so don't take this the wrong way, but this isn't the best way to get started. You've basically said you have no experience, and experience in coding isn't much your scripting is good but you can't great a total conversion (which you sound like you are attempting) with just those skills and hope people will fill in the rest. There are plenty of mods out there right now that you and your friend may be able to help where you can apply your knowledge and develop your skills. Starting out essentially blind just leads to failure. I can almost guarantee where your mod idea is headed. After weeks of no one showing any interest here, or if they do its half-hearted interest where they promise you the moon and deliver nothing. Then you will try and push on by yourself only to eventually give up and end with nothing.

Better to join up with something established than to get turned off modding because of inexperience.

Welcome to TWC..

Bearing in mind the omission of any info on what your proposing, my advice is either do as DG says and join an existing mod, make a sub mod of an existing mod, or make a mod utilising already existing map, units and skins and artwork..

This thread will be moved to the classifieds section, I think you really might want to rethink your original post and add a lot more detail, no one is going to join a mod on the sole premiss of;

the mod will be from -350 BC till the start of the roman empire, or
at the start of the barbarian invasion

Good luck.

Peace

Although I am sure you would like to start with your own mod, I also think Goat has a good point -

However, the mod Total War: the King of Kings is recruiting - we have all the positions filled, but we want to expand, because it will be a lot of work.
Please visit our forum for more information: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=606
The timeframe is 1500-1700 approximately.

We would really appreciate any help - and if you like, you could join as an Official member.

Both you and your friend are very welcome.

Many Thanks
Espadana
Chief-Dev of the King of Kings

PS. I think your English is great - no worries

Unless I`ve counted wrong you have about 26 factions in there. Either way, there`re more than 21.

That's one very ambitious mod! To be honest I'd be really surprised if you find anyone wanting to work on a new mod for RTW. We're having difficulties enough recruiting further help with Roma Surrectum which is now well established and enjoys a good reputation. Certainly we've only had one or two graphics people who've contributed anything significant join in the last 6 months.

My feeling is that the vast majority of modders have already made the leap to M2TW.

Good luck however, my feeling is that you'll need it!

[Bogyman]

well, this mod will have a lot of scipting, like EB, so i think that i will be the scipter, and i will ask my friend if we can take units and buildings ect. from variouse mod(ROP,EB,RS...)with there agreement of course, so this will be a relatively quike made mod.
