Hi, i want to speak with Xenocide developers about project and about development if someone is here.
Please contact me with PM.

You should contact Mad or dteviot.

Do you want to merge project xenocide with x-com origin?

[_h2o_]

(maybe) i wish to use some content or it could be great if some interested active members will be in "x-com: origin" project

[_h2o_]

hi to all,
i dont need any sources, maybe i will use some base models.. but i am not sure. if we will find a good environment 3d-artist than he will do it

my best wish is to be with interested people in one team and complete game

[kafros]

I tried accessing our SVN through the browser, I think it was svn.projectxenocide.com but of course, that doesn't work either (appears empty).

http://svn.projectxe...e.com/xenocide/ for code
http://svn.projectxenocide.com/assets/ for the rest of the project assets (text, sound, graphics)
Here you are

http://svn.projectxe...ork Department/ You can use any resource you want, provided you follow its license rights (Attribution-Sharealike-NonCommercial if I remember correctly)

Concerning the xcom projects, each one has its own vision and uses different technology, so it's practically not possible for people to merge into a common project.
Nevertheless, progress is being made in various projects (your "origin", Alien Invasion, The Two Sides, supsuper's remake), so there isn't much need to worry

Btw, do you plan to have some website or something for x-com-origin?

Also, how's your progress? Any news?

[kafros]

ROFL, "progress"
We've been dead for years.

He was talking about xcom origin

thats not right!
first is: any 2d-artist or 3d-artist can help
second is: if you are about programmers.. in programing is main is know OOP and know how to programming another script language is not problem.. also we will help to learn. its just need some wish and time to study. every experienced OOP programmer just need to read language basics also is same in all programming languages.

and thats goo that i can use some resources.. i think we will use it for first time only, while we have no own.

Update of x-com origin thread will be soon..
web site is in programing stage.

Easier said than done. You can't *just* merge Xenocide's c# (or even the old c++) codebase with UFO:AI's C codebase.
Use ideas from both? Yes you can. BUT, which ones will the developers agree upon?
... And more points we could talk/disagree/discuss upon, but it would be no help. This issue has already been discussed at least twice, and each time either it was decided that the changes would be overwhelming, or the developers didn't agree on losing some/most of their work or being "forced" to redo some stuff.

also we are looking for new game-designer.
here is many people with "creative text department", i dont know what it means but i think it is some like writer or game-designer, so if some one from xenocide wants to.. it would be great. but that someone should be 1. with experience 2. be not stupid guy who thinking he is a god..

also we need animator

ok, first off: "My first Post!!"

*AHEM*

I've been lurking around here for a year trying to find a point of entry, and watching this project's progress with interest. This thread is probably the first sign of life I've seen since April. I'm unsure of the progress of this project as a whole...

I'm what the industry calls a "Technical Artist" (I am not part of the VG industry). Instead of being set to work on the code, or art, or text, I go about working on an alien, or car, or similar prop, and do what it takes to model, write, and code it.

I know how to use 3ds Max, and own old versions of it, but I've been using blender 4.96b lately due to cost (don't have 4k just lying around). I'm C# literate and know a fair amount of the XNA library, if you use that... My big weakness is that I'm not great at making skins. I can make passable ones, but it's a job best suited for someone else.

I guess what I'm coming to is that I'd like to contribute, but I need to know how, and if there will be anyone with me...

[_h2o_]

xrabohrok i was saying about
http://www.xcomufo.c...h...pid=189189
and not about xenocide..

[Mad]

Guys, I really appreciate what you are trying to do, but this is not a recruitment center for X-Com Origins. Let the old lady die in peace.

xrabohrok: Xenocide is pretty much not acitve, most members MIA. There is a chance to revive it, there is always a chance. On the other hand, X-Com Origins (http://www.xcomufo.c...0&gopid=189189) has a lot of steam right now, so maybe you can do more over there. It is up to you. If you're still interested in trying to revive the (more or less) dead horse Xenocide, drop me a PM, maybe we can work something out.

Closed.
