[Announcement] ProjectCynosure in the Making

[MooseBoi]

Hey everyone.
ProjectCynosure is starting on a new MMORPG ran by the Torque Game Engine. We got a little progress idea-wise but in the long run, we're not really that far. We're looking for some other people who would be interested in joining our project to make this game happen. We need a whole range of people with skills in C++, Texturing, Modeling and animations(in 3ds Max) and a few for thinking out a story line. Also if this project gets any further we may need a few for MySQL to figure out game databases but thats thinking a little ahead :P.

Here's a link to our project website if you wanna check out our progress... ProjectCynosure.net • Index page

Here are our current members...
-Astra = Lore
-Bjarke = Modeling
-Ferocity = Scripting
-MooseBoi = Modeling and C++
-Squabert = Modeling and C++
-Tobii = Modeling
-2dgreengiant = MySQL
-A few of our friends = Lore and Ideas behind the game

So if you're interested in our project drop a reply to this post, PM me or add me on MSN at [email protected]

[ferocity]

I'm interested, I'm not particularly good at C++, but I can script in engines pretty well, also have a C++ book, and know the basics, and some of the advance stuff of programing, not saying that I'm pro or anything.

Although I like programming the most, I am also reasonably good at description of spells/effects, and have a few ideas of them myself.

EDIT: Just a question, why torque engine?

[MooseBoi]

Hey ferocity, thanks for the reply. We'd be happy to have you in the project. For your question, we chose Torque because well we liked the look of what it could do. It can render very large areas of land and also things such as the cloud layers, the water and alot of the other features it has.
edit- Add me on MSN so we can talk :P

[ferocity]

Err, your profile doesn't have your MSN.

Look in the thread

[Enfeebleness]

I'm fairly sure someone came here a LONG time ago attempting the exact same thing.

They got flamed the crap out of.

[MooseBoi]

Enfeebleness i dont think we're doing anything against the rules, this section is for anything thats "not directly WoW related"

[2dgreengiant]

Warsheep was but he never actually got around to doing much if i remember, i have spoken to these guys on msn and it seems to be legit and has alot of potential if ran correctly.

[MooseBoi]

thanks for the replies. For those who are interested, we're still looking for some more people to be involved in C++, texturing and modeling.
