Hi
I am looking to start a team for an ambitious project where I am looking to capture the spirit of old-school FPS games with linear single-player experiences and epic multiplayer arena-style battle.
I am a programmer with experience in C/C++, C# and many other languages, I've worked a lot with Quake-based engines (Which is why I want to use the Doom3 source as a base). I can also cover environmental texture work, level design and websites. (Basic environmental props at a push)
I want to use an engine that has great moddability and a modern enough look where I don't have to change too much to get the style of game I'm looking for. I would like to incorporate horror elements which is why I think the Doom 3 lighting system is perfect. (I've been testing fhDoom an advanced Doom3 distro with some improvements) I think you could do a lot with the engine.
I am looking for anyone looking to get involved with a project like this, there is no initial desire to sell the game unless the team agrees to go down that route.
If you have any skills you could offer (Writing, textures, 3D modelling, animation, coding etc.) please let me know, it would especially useful if you have experience with Quake engines.
Let me know if you're interested!
Dan
