Any coders/programmers looking for a project?

Postby Thijssnl » Wed Oct 13, 2010 2:11 pm

Edit: Updated. Only serious reactions from now on please, I know the .. original original post was crappy; I didnt know what to say at all.
There, I updated it.

I am looking for programmers/coders for making a mmo.
This mmo will be mainly a space-survival game, meaning there are different planets, you can inhabit abandoned houses, build spacecrafts.
The combat system is fps-like, with melee as well. (combat is the most under..developed? part in my design atm, working on it).
I do the modelling and animating, I have a dedicated artist and a rookie texturer.
More info about the game can indeed be found in the link.

I know only a little bit about programming, this is why I need programmers : )
What language I need: I do not know. Any language people are skilled in, enough to do whatever they want with it seems the best.
Unless you as programmer are excellent in making engines, we will work with the UnrealEngine3 (UDK).
I want to form a team, not boss slaves around. Programmers have as much input in the ideas as I or any other members of the team have.
I'm a beginning modeller but I do learn pretty quick, and most things a mmo needs, I think I can make. Like quoted somewhere below, I can not draw as well, but I can model, and concept art/blueprints and similar things will be drawn by the dedicated artist.

What I have to offer you as programmer/coder: A opportunity to program or code in a team, so not only will you write a line of code, but actually use it for something bigger.
Edit : I might actually be able to pay salary, this ofcourse has some requirements. (I can not offer any salary but donations, like it works here, I do not plan on making the game paid or having a special item shop.)
If you are a professional, hopefully a great addition to your portfolio.

And you should really tell people what you want.

Indeed. A random guy looking for random programmers for a random project requiring random skills.

I vote for thread delete unless he tells more info.

EDIT:
I guess his signature link tells a bit more about it.

I'm 'Head Concept-Design' and 'Head-Modeller/Animator'.

Is that the same as:
"I know nothing about programming, but I still want to organize a team of slaves working for free.
The programmers should be obedient enough to implement my great game idea just like I want them to."
?

See.. there are several types of coders.. there are website design/development.. which includes.. Html.. php, css, and javascrpt..

Then there is actual computer programing.. to name a few languages are c++ , c, c+ , python,

Then there is game programing languages or programs .. Can you be a little more specific?

How can he be specific, when from the looks of it, he knows nothing about programming?

What he wrote in his forum:
and to be honest, I cant draw, program and alot of other things just the slightest bit.

There are tons of places on the internet to look for 'programmers', but most people won't join a project unless:
1)You can program and can already show them a lot of the work done proving yourself capable and having initiative on the project.
2)You can draw and can already show a good deal of the artwork.
3)You've known the person a while.

A game design document also helps even if it's a shitty one, just a way of collecting all your thoughts and saying "I know what I want to do, this is it, now I just need to make it". :)

You forgot those who program with beams and levers out in their barn, ternary logic ftw.
