Greetings,
Our team is currently looking to expand.
Cyclo Logic Studios is a volunteer-based group, producing a freeware game.
We are currently developing an online 3d action product and eventually add RPG elements.
To summarize in a few words our first demo releases will feature a relatively small online 'map', and p.-v.-p. sword combat (action oriented).
The project client executable is using C++ and DirectX 9.0c.
The project target minimum hardware is p.s. (pixel shader) 2.0 supporting systems.
The project was not started yesterday, some of us have been working on it since late 2003.
The project already has a fair list of features: dynamic sky/shadow system, parallax mapping, reflective/refractive water.
Some screen shots can be found
here[url].
The programming team is focusing and taking time to do things right.
Some of the benefits from that are:
- Continuous loads
- Terrain triangle optimization
- Mesh optimization
- Optimized shadow casting
- Frustum/occlusion culling system
- As well as others
The team at the moment consists of 6 members.
Please visit our [/url]
website for more details, or directly the
team page.
We are currently in need of some assistance in these various departments:
Server Programmer :
- The server application is using c++, gdi,
raknet, and mysql++.
- Were looking for someone to take charge in the Server development.
- no experience with gdi or mysql++ is needed as the lead programmer handled those.
- The server Lead should be familiar with server design, and ideally
raknet too.
- A fair bit of programming experience is needed as well.
- Also you must be able to work/program in a team.
3D Modeler, character. :
- Were looking for someone todo the only character mesh featured in our demo (hey or more!)
- The concept for the character is
here.
- Currently only 3ds max exporters are completed but whatever format you will use, we will deal with it.
Rig Animator :
- Once that warrior mesh completed we will need someone to animate him
- we will be using a Skeleton animation system.
3D Modeler, non character. :
- Someone who can create 3d objects using 3dmax from simple to complex.
- Experience is key as well as consciousness for performance (low vertex count).
Level Designer. :
- Were looking for someone create from simple to complex objects such as rocks, swords, trees, wreckage and so on.
- We are using
gtkradiant to build our structures.
- However we are not using the BSP technique, so less rules apply.
Texture Artist. :
- A texture artist who can create and apply textures to our already made structures using Gtk-Radiant.
- Someone who can also create texture packs.
- Experience with normal maps a plus.
UI Designer. :
- We are looking for someone to design to User Interface and produce the necessary data.
- We have a "start" the UI Designer is free to either continue on it, or start a new.
Concept Artist. :
- We need someone to create concept art for this project.
Sound Engineer. :
- We are in need of people to create sound effects and music.
- We are using
audiere.
- It supports several formats but we would prefer to stick to ogg vorbis licsence.
Public Relation. :
- We need a person in charge of recruiting experienced and serious people to help us with our project.
- Previous Experience is required.
Game design. :
- We need someone to design the final stages of the project.
- This includes : designing a rules set, working closely with level designers and several more.
- Some technical and programming knowledge is preferrable.
Writer. :
- We need someone to accompany our lead writer with creativity and imagination.
- Several stories need to be made for our project.
Please remember that we are a very serious team and we are looking for people who will stay for the long run,
that has free time in their hands and will apply them selves.
