no response from emails (long load time lots of pics)
« on: March 05, 2003, 02:31:38 am »
hi, i sent several emails to luca a while back, and pms to some of the dev team, couldnt get a response but i think you guys could use my help, so ill post here

im a guarented dedicated  worker with experience, and youd be surprised how much freetime i have since graduated at 15.

http://www.freewebs.com/bumm/house.jpg

http://www.freewebs.com/bumm/lion.jpg

http://www.freewebs.com/bumm/untitled.jpg

i know these arnt the most impressive scenes to show but i will spend time on a project ps, the quality WILL be better than whats shown here

im not asking to be a ps dev or forum admin or anything, im not even asking to be on the website.

just post or privatly send a message explaining an enviorment area or \'zone\' that hasnt been complete, include many details like what kind of creaters its enviorment type anything to help me understand what you want.

i can get everything done exept convert the .ma maya file that scenes are saved in into a valid zone file that works with crystal space

People that think they know enough to not go to highschool here are called drop outs.

First I would recommend you just put links to the pics.

Second, contact Boonet and wait a while.

Talad, A.K.A. Luca gets a ton of e-mails a day, and while I wish he was faster with them, he has a full time job and Planeshift release to worry about. In short your e-mails might have been trashed, because you did not sell yourself in the first 3 lines.

My suggestion is mainly to wait till things calm down after MB there is far too much going on there (even my e-mails are getting ignored).

And while I understand your outrage?a lot of the group focuses on communication, if you are a whiny pain in the butt you will not be productive in any way form or shape in fact you may be counter productive. Our goal is not to have a ton of people chatting and saying how great they are. Our goal is to make a game. I am not saying that we can?t have fun while doing it, simply it is to have more work then play.

Another issue may be your age  (I do not know if this is the case with you) we currently have no one that is incredibly productive and has the attention to detail required that is under 18. and if I exclude 5 people I can bump that number up to 25.

Over all, I suggest you make a resume and a portfolio, zip it up and send it to Boonet
bboonneett@yahoo.com then wait a few days and send a follow up e-mail asking for his opinion and continue with follow ups till you get a response. Be forewarned that the response may be, at this time I do not think you are up to our level required?but it will be a response.

Also keep in mind that quality items bust also be polygon efficient.

Anyway I hope this helps you and any other aspiring team members.

Keep in mind a quote from a team member that I?ll keep his name  to myself  and I am paraphrasing ?members under 23 require 90% of the effort to keep happy and produce 5% of the product?

This is not to say there are not exceptions on both ends of the age gap, but this is a reasonable generalization.

Anyway I hope to see you sometime soon as a trial candidate.

Well, I talked to the powers that be. And from what I have gotten is they asked you to join the team, but you want to do your own thing?so I think that should leave everyone happy.

Now on the concept that you should be able to do whatever you want on your own, I think that it does not fit with the way we operate at the moment, in essence, you are either part of the dev team or you are not.

If you are you are given a task and you work on that till it is finished or something of higher priority comes along. If you do not complete anything then you get ignored and or ousted.

Your request to be given a huge task, and then be left to your own devices for a time is not how we are doing things.

Your choice really.

heh i would definatly not reject an offer to join the team,  what i meant is i dont need to be on the team to work on it, i will work on a project being on the team or not, just as long as i can help planeshift grow.

i would be very gratefull to join the team, and would only be doing things on my own if i wasnt part of the team, things would be very different if i was.
