Heaven/Hell mod needs modelers and skinners
let me lay this out on the table. i can model very little. i can skin a little more but not much. im mostly interested in story lines and narratives. ive been working on a story that i wanted to throw out and see if some people wanted to take it for a spin. here goes the short version.
the fires of hell long ago burned out and its now just a barren wasteland. a baron (or lord or regional leader or whatever you want to call it) figures out a way to animate the dead land and decides to make an army, in greedy hopes that he will be able to be supreme ruler of hell. lucifer says "not on my watch, grandma" and goes in to stomp him out. he succeeds in doing this. but the collective conscienceness of the barons creations is too great, and they make their own leader. the forces of hell put up a good fight, and are doing a good job in taking out the rogue creations. then, in a bit of genious, the rogues decide to attack earth. heaven sees this and assumes the monsters tearing **** up are lucifers minions. so heaven ignites the flames and turns hell back into the suffering it orginally was.... and at the same time, making the the hellian army pretty much down for the count, what with all the suffering and searing pain. so its down to a battle between heaven and the rogues.
thats the short version. i think it would give way to some pretty nice opportunities for original art... which is why i got the heaven/hell idea to begin with. the storyline i wrote down is basic at best... the whole thing is more involved and is centered around specific characters... kinda like in starcraft or warcraft III (although i didnt particularlly like either of those games). youd start out as hell fighting the rogues, then the rogues fighting hell at the turning point (going to earth) then heaven fighting the rogues.
i dont know... i just think it would be nice to have a serious mod in the making that wasnt just a bunch of cosmetic edits... id like to see something with a interconnected story like generals was supposed to be.
one final note to this already too long post... im not looking at this as "im the designer, and i need people to do the work for me". i just have a story line. while i can draw and do 2d graphic work and web work and all that jive (i go to art school for design and printmaking), im not looking to be a boss. i want to work with a team of people. all input is good input. that sort of thing.
just an idea. if you think its lame, so be it. If you are even vaguely interested, reply and ill send you some concept stuff Ive been working on... maybe get a dialog goin
