I stumbled onto some concept art for this and was WOW'd. 

So,  what is the story -- project still moving forward?  Is there anything going on with it and if so how can I help.  I am currently out of work so I need something to work on besides lingerie-repair and the occasional welding project (NOT RELATED).

Yep. We really need some additional programmers to implement the stuff the writers want to do.

And that is the one thing I cannot contribute.  I can program molding machines,  CNC mills and PLCs but I know nothing of COMPUTER programming.

So I downloaded and poked around the main game...   Impressive work so far.    Is the "plot" installed yet or at least some version of it?   If so where do I go to get the ball rolling so to speak...


Oh and I decided to play some SuperMelee just for old times sake.    Star Destroyer?    Shocked   REALLY?!   Grin

The plot is still a bit scattered but it's coming together very slowly. There is a project set up at Code Google which contains the story, a place to share ideas and so much more. Just a warning, those places contain spoilers to 6014 so don't go there if you want to keep the game a surprise once its completed.

That's not a problem,  I think I'll hop on over and take a look.

Kinda sad that project currently lacks actual developers to do the coding.

Too much writers, too little coders.

You could possibly find additional coders at koding.com

Is there a way members could chip in and hire programmers on Elance.com, etc...or are we messing with legal stuff there?

I've looked through the code repositories and the dev forum, but can't find a list of outstanding tasks anywhere, or even any high-level description of what needs doing.

I'm familiar with C++, OpenGL, and more specifically the UQM codebase (I made a slew of mods to it back in '08, for private use).  If there's a series of small tasks I could knock off over time, I'd be interested in doing some of the programming work to get things going again.

Hi Dczanik!

Total SC2 fan here.
I found out about this Project only now, and registered in the forum just to to voice my enthusiasm.
Great kudos!!!

Unfortunately, I'm really overbooked at this time and I cannot afford to offer any help to you or the team, at least for now. Sorry!

So, basically, just wanted to say

number_of_people_who_cannot_wait_to_see_this_happen ++



Well, I do have one small idea to offer, about a potential alien race.
I always had it in mind, because I think it is very SC2-ish.

(digression - this is what I mean by that: something I really loved about SC2 is how the characterization of many races, their specific 'main theme' so to say, is coherently reflected on so many different aspects: from cosmetic ones:  the appearance, the dialogs, the ship name, the ship look, the way it is piloted, the music... to gameplay ones: the role in the various adventure plots and subplots, the role in the 'strategic' game, the features of the ship - i.e. the combat style. Well, the alien race I have in mind would offer the whole set)

I see the project wiki pages have one "raw idea" section. Do you mind if I insert it there?
Yes I'm aware that just offering ideas for others to develop is very easy and not very helpful.

Also: did you consider rising some well deserved funding on, e.g., indiegogo or kickstarter? I for one would contribute.

Thanks! Go ahead and post. Always interested in new ideas.
We're not planning on any kickstarter. It's just a lot of legal issues and hurdles to overcome.

I sent an e-mail offering development help and received no response.  Are you still looking for developers?
