Help others with their mods along with working on your own mod, and get helped back in return.

Newfoundking Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 So to me, this seems like a great idea, except for one thing. Skinning a vehicle is probably the easiest of tasks available. Now while a higher quality skin does take longer time than a mash up, it still takes less time than making a model, or even UVing it. So this means you'll have a lot of people with the idea that they want to make a mod, but with no real skills (skinning isn't a major skill, almost everyone on this forum can do it) coming to you looking for models. So people are volunteering to make a model, and then in turn, a UV map, as these people probably don't know how to make a UV map. So essentially someone is making models to be skinned after they UV it. The people creating the model would not need a skinner, as they would just as soon make the skin they want for the UV, as opposed to a vanilla/base skin before making the one they want. This flaw in the idea seems like a major issue to me. You'll get many people with little to no skills coming in expecting a full mod presented to them, models, and scripts and all. If I was you, I'd revise my entrance requirements to be a little more stringent. Perhaps limit it only to modelers, scripters and UV Mappers (Note, UV MAPPING IS NOT SKINNING) you know, skills that require a little more effort, and can be relatively equal in output. Now perhaps the agreement is that they'll make fair use items, so that new members can learn to mod on them. Realistically, there's members here that can knock out a bare model in say 5 or 6 hours, no UV. Now there's others that can knock out an awesome looking UV in say 3 or 4 hours after that. And there's scripters that can knock out a script in the same. The modeler I'm talking about that can fly through 3D hates UVing. I know people that love UVing and hate 3D work. If you expect to get into this, knowing they'll have to make models for others who will only reskin theirs in return isn't a fair trade off, and you're not going to attract many people that way. Look at the real modding skills (script, Model, UV) and you'll get more people in, as it'll be more reciprocal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamnj88 Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 I would not make a modding team until someone in the modding team has actually released a mod. Also only one person in your mod team can actually do more then just skinning and the rest of you are NOOBS to modding. If I was you I would just not have a modding team until you guys get some experience under your belt especially since you are new to modding and you already have three mod projects going and nothing to show for any of them yet.

I was just using skinning as an example too. And anyway I am being taught how to do the other stuff in mod making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willowfork fire capt Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I can script and map dennis reid can script,map,and model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 So just to understand... If I can only skin (I mean, that's all I can do, that and light... It's not like there's any way to verify this, as I haven't released anything, like many members) and I need a Ford SuperDuty pickup made for my mod, I exchange a reskin of dennis reid's model, and then I get my made model? And by map, what exactly do you mean? There's a LOT of different things that go into mapping. What if I needed a full map, would this be something you could work on for me?

willowfork fire capt Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 When it comes to mapping i can do everything but make paths but i can make a texture(Not completely from scratch but partly),virtual objects, making calls(Medical,MVAs,Gas explosions) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 So essentially reskins and placing objects on the map? Is there anyone to do the more difficult (and MOST important part) placing streets and paths? The others have echoed what I'm trying to say. There's too much of the difficult stuff that you don't have anyone to do, which is what people need the most around here. In regards to my question about the model, I still don't have an answer for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to answer your question, you are constantly working on each others mods. You will mainly focus on your mod, and others will help you with your mod, but then we expect you to help out with other peoples mods too. And now we have all skills covered by at least 2 people, and therefore your mod will never be short of any skills. That way we can get more mods actually complete because we have various people with various skills that help each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Okay, so since I have not gotten a straight answer, I'll ask again. I want a new Ford SuperDuty pickup with a cap, full working doors and an area for a K9 unit, lights included. Do you have anyone that will make this for me in exchange for a reskin? It appears based on the site's credits, you have two team members, neither of which can model. And looking around other things there, there's no list of who does what besides that list.

itchboy Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I will try from scratch, if not ill figure something outTis easy My newer F350 model (if you can still find it), then raise the ride height, then model the rear cap. Then take bama's Setina pushbar. You then need to model the tow hook and the trailer. Then you model it those monster truck tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't added all the members to the site yet. We have a total of 9 members right now. And normally we would help each other with their entire mod instead of just 1 model/skin. Unless you want a specific person to only do a skin because they are really good at it for one vehicle for your mod. But we don't have decent modelers yet from what I know.
