Not sure if this is allowed on this forum but I will post anyways and find out.

I have been looking for some help for a long time to start my Half-Life 2 mod. I know it will be awhile before I get a full team but I was wondering if anyone was intested in becoming part of the team. If you are a concept artist or know how to model then send me an e-mail at mjcs@hlgaming.com. I am looking for other positions so e-mail me if you think you can help in other ways.

The mod is Borg Wars. Don't let the name fool you though. It is not entirely about the Borg. The main plot is that Species 8472 is still mad at the Borg for invading their fluidic space. Species 8472 sets out once again to combat the Borg. This is the Federations greatest chance to strike a giant blow to the collective. Not everything turns out the way you would expect though. Species 8472 starts to hate the rest of the galaxy once again. So now you are fighting on two fronts.

If you have any interest please contact me and check out the website at http://borgwars.hlgaming.com.

Is it possible?? a recruitment post with PROPER GRAMMAR and and A WEBSITE!! Holy s**t! That's a feat on its own.

Sorry for the sarcasm.

I have no idea if this would turn out well or not ... can't really see what direction you're taking this, but you have a decent start at least (and a larger start then most mod teams that have been slushing around here trying to pick up mappers)

Show some map ideas maybe? Or some rough (incredibly rough is okay too) sketches of sequences you're thinking of having.

Just some thoughts :smile:

I am not much of an drawing artist. I do mostly website design and Advertisement design (my real job). So I will have to describe these to you. BTW I really don't care if this is perfect grammer or not. It does not need to be since it is a post on a message board.

Basically I am looking for a very dark feel. If any of you have ever watched Star Trek: Voyager you know how it is with the Borg and the two episodes with Species 8472. The Borg are rather scarry in the dark or even in the light.

Example for a level would be a Borg Cube or Sphere. It would have minimal lighting. Spot lights lighing key areas with flickering control panels scattered througout. You would see conduits and electronics all around. If you know Trek then you know what I am talking about. If you don't then go watch Star Trek on SpikeTV or rent the DVD's.

If YOU knew Star Trek, you'd know that Species 8472 whomps on the Borg, so why would we want to help them? I mean, when the Borg's gone, 8472 can whomp on the humans even more easily, and all with less time for researching a solution. :wink:

If you knew star trek then you would know that there are modified nanoprobes that can harm/kill species 8472. :smile:

Couple of things first:

Have you cleared this with Paramount? You don't want to get into a lawsuit with them, and a cease and desist order means you destroy all of your work :razz:

''LCARS" is the name of the operating system, not the network. The network doesn't have a name; it's just the 'Starfleet subspace communications network'.

(Library Computer Access and Retrieval System', for anyone else who cares..)

</nerd> :biggrin:
