We're looking for level designers to create architecture parts for replacing our standard prefabs and WAD file.

The task:

Create walls, towers, houses, huts, tunnels, bridges or similar parts that are useful for level design. You do not need to care about the current prefabs. The new prefabs should be general purpose - not too complex and not too special.

The textures, 24 bit, should be stored in a WAD file named "standard8.wad". Every texture should be accompanied by a 32 bit normal map with depth on alpha, in another wad file "standard8_n.wad".

The reward:

Free upgrade to A8.
Additional payment is negotiable, depending on the number of prefabs contributed.

Please contact me if you're interested!

What about specularity maps?

Right, specularity on texture alpha when required. Just the format as described for the standard shaders.

The deadline is about 4 weeks. We take all prefab collections that are good in quantity, quality, and fit into the general concept.

@Frank, please do this

@JCL, what about models? will there be also new stock models. Like generic bone animated characters, trees etc. a pack of 10-12 stock models for quick-testing codes would also be very nice. I mean while you are at it about prefabs with dexsoft, negotiate about the models with them too?

Yes, new models will be eventually added, but from standard model shops, so we won't need help from users for this. This is for prefabs only.

Should they be done exclusively with WED? Can I use another 3D software?

Your preferred method to create prefabs is completely up to you.

great, so i can level design but i cant do textures. im out of the race then...

I'd try this, probably the easiest way for me to get a8

oops, meant that as a pm.

Here's an example of the type of work I'd be able to do:


the first is a quad with the standard gate texture, the second two are my remake, the second version of mine is just to see how light affects the normal map from different distances.
