Howdy all,

I will make this brief as you all look serious around here..

Over at RTk we are busy cooking up a new mod for the upcoming release of HL2. A brief description of the mod:

SR 2053

In the Year of 2010 we had an occurrence in our reality that we call The Awakening. Something from our past awoke legends that were long forgotten. Creatures from our mythical history walked the earth once more, giving birth to magic. Chaos reigned as governments crumbled and Corporations grew into power. Trolls, Orcs, Dwarfs & Elf?s became once again part of our society. Even some humans show strength in an ancient magical skill. Wars are fought in new ways now, for corporations rule this world. This war is waged underground in the very shadows of our cities. And now rumors are surfacing of an even more powerful ancient Beast. Fear runs through everyone?s veins, as we all fear the worst is yet to come.

==========================================================

Thats right!
So, due to the game's "never-release" date. There are no official mapping tools to work with, but we are not limited. no. Valve has stated many a time how easy and compatible the map files themselves will be! So, with that said, we are on the look-out for mappers up to this task. It will require patience and dedication to map for a game on a different paltform then its intended, but we intend to do just that! And we want you if you can fit the bill!

We are currently looking for level designers on the HL1 platform only, for obvious reasons. If you feel up to the task please email OSIAS@rtkdevelopment.com or hit up our forums and make yourself known.
Thx for your time.

i find it a bit odd, to see a member name representing an entire group of people..

snarkpit is a one on one minded atmosphere.. why can't the group at individuals sign up for membership?

/me gasps

vash, didn't realize that Chihuahua was in your gene pool

i can, think large, very large..

just think of it, maps that make chaocity look small, and much better constructed to boot.

smaller than U2 though, but big none the less

[edit] i retextured reno's competition map from the last comp.. it compiled in about 5 minutes, and run smooth as silk.. compile times will be altered with the new engine as well..

Indeed, as ReNo says - good luck with it all I just don't feel there is potential or a market for HL2 mod players yet - perhaps if you focus on high r_speeds concept in development and "breaking the mould", as it were.

If you lay down concept ideals for mapping, modelling and coding before everyone else - you are bound to be onto something semi-successful

gl with it all, youll need it.... knowing valve
