After much consideration, I've decided to heed the many suggestions I've received to assemble a team to work on Red Skulls. The RSEC (Red Skull Engineering Corps.) is that very team. We'll vote after the project is done on whether we want to continue working together, but for now just focus on Red Skulls. Sign up below if you'd like to be a part of creating this campaign. Any of the following skills are hoped for, but if you'd still like to join just tell me what you can contribute and I'll consider it:

- Animation: Particularly third-person for cutscenes. If you want to make Red Skull cutscenes you'll need to be fluent in this type of animation.

- AI encounter organization: Enemies and friends are a huge part of the game, in fact I daresay the campaign would not function without them, wouldn't you agree? To develop missions in Red Skulls, this is essential.

- Gameplay scripting: Not only is AI setup important, but lots of scripting is required to organize it efficiently. Only gameplay scripting is necessary, as I've already worked out the mechanics such as mission selection and support purchasing.

- Voice acting: If you're willing to lend your voice to a character in Red Skulls, then feel free to. Just choose a character, send me a PM with your character of choice, then I'll send you a few example lines for you to record yourself saying, and we can see if it'll be a good fit. The following characters are needed:
Spartan 2 protagonist
Red Skull commander
UNSC official
Generic marine
Generic rebel
Generic Red Skull infantry

- Plot development: The Red Skull story is ongoing, although I have quite a bit worked out. Any joining members will be expected to contribute to this.

Do note that, while I strive to be polite and have fun, I will pull out my iron fist and/or boot to rule with if necessary. Please do not aggravate me or other team members to the point that I am forced to plant one of the two aforementioned objects into your anus at a high rate of speed.

If you'd like to join, post here and apply on the team page. Also, be sure to add us as friends who are already in the group.

PM me a recorded example of you reading something military-like and I'll see.

I'll send you a PM with a suggestion or two.

I'd be willing to help. I can do everything on that list but animating.

I've learned almost everything I can with scripting, it's just the really advanced things that confuse me. (Just certain commands)

I have an app on my computer that allows me to record my voice, not the best quality, but it works well enough.

I can easily help come up with a plot, that's not hard at all.

If you wait a few months I can show you some work from some of my older projects.

I'm so glad I have a deep voice.

As much as I would like to be a marine I can't stand my own voice.

I thought I joined? Or was that something else?

Ah, you're correct. Sorry that was a little while ago but I do remember now.

Scripting is indeed a good part, but it is about half. The other two quarters are AI encounter setup and cutscene construction which both require some separate experience in themselves. If you feel up to it, PM me or add me on Xfire and we can discuss.

Not many people enjoy hearing their own voice played back; I'll send you a PM with the remaining needed characters and you try one out.

Sound's good. Make sure to add me on the list as a coordinator and a BSP designer.

Added, if anyone else would like to join we have room for one more animator, and possibly a scripter. Voice actors are also encouraged to sign up, so far we have 2/5.

I might be able to now that I got a working mic. I don't exactly have a great voice but hey.... I'll try.

I could do some voice acting and help out with plots.

Alright I'll add a new list to the OP in a bit for voice acting and characters available.

I can help in a lot of those areas, primarily the abstract ones like Developing Plot, Scripting, Voice Acting if desperate (I have a Mic), AI Encounter Organization, and Gameplay Scripting (though I am very messy in a lot of people's eyes). If you need help, just let me know.

What you see on Halomaps.org (besides the scripting reference) are both very early things I have done, one that was my first map ever (back in 07/08) and the other was an Alpha of an SP I was working on that never took off due to my inexeperience with scripting at the time. A lot of my junk is behind closed doors.

No problem, if you think you're up to the challenge I'd be happy to have you.

I applied, I'd be happy to join if you'd take me, I'm very good with HEK and I'm learning modeling.

I have no objections toward using Audacity for a small edit like that. Add me on Xfire and it will help speed up the process (auto-friender found in the website spot on my profile).

Updated the OP with a character list, look under the voice acting section.

I could make an attempt at voice acting. I doubt you will want to use it but I'll give it a shot.

Also:


I don't think that's a accurate description. I'm actually better with weapons, scripting, and animating. The only thing that I suck more at making than vehicle models is biped models. My bsp's are even better than that....and that's not saying much. Just change it to custom models instead of vehicles. Although I have been trying to improve my vehicle modeling to help with redskulls.(part of the reason I have not finished the claymore)

We should create our own rebels. It would make it easier to identify enemies, especially if there might be some 3-way fights.....

Cool, go for it.

Ah alright, my bad.

We could do that, lord knows I love a good 3-way. If you want to go into more detail on that, then please use the private team forums, away from the prying eyes of the public >.>

I can help with any plot development/ encounter ideas that you need.

I could help with plot development, and some voice acting if I find a mic.

Plot development assistance isn't necessary, but voice acting really would help.

I kind of want to help with voice acting. :D

Go for it. Grab a character, send me a PM with your character of choice, then I'll send you a few example lines for you to record yourself saying, and we can see if it'll be a good fit.

What help do you still need ? if any... let me now :)

Actually, i'd be fine with any character, just sned me the pms and i'll see what i can do.

Voice acting is the #1 aspect we still need, if you could help with that it'd be great.

That look's good... I wanna eat it...

^This.^

very very yes.
