Title: Looking for some good mappers
Post by: Fenrir on April 22, 2011, 06:35:49 am

Me and my friend Joopndufus have decided to start a server, and we have a whole lot of good ideas, and he's a pretty skilled programmer, but our only problem is mapping.

We are interested in finding maybe 1-2 people who are decent-amazing mappers would be interested in helping with our server, that we hope to become a pretty good server with a fairly large playerbase.

Our server is going to add some new interesting features to your Fonline experience, but at the same time have some similar styles of play as to what you would be used to playing on 2238 or TLA, so it will be a fun and enjoyable server ^_^

We are going to have a lot of flat terrain in our world map, and not much of mountain, but we will have everything from fields, to swamps, to urban, to desert tiles, and there's going to be a few underground maps made for some interesting locations ;)

If you're interested, send me a PM, and if you've made any maps, send a picture so we can see your work, and I'll get back to you. ^^

You won't find many people with such an ambigious request, be a bit more specific what goals your game shall achieve, what tone you want to see in maps etc. I won't have any time, but I could help some people re-checking maps or giving tips if you need that.

Thank you for the offer, it will be extremely useful when we get a few people to start working on maps :)

I'm certainly not a good mapper but I know how the mapper works and I could do some mapping for you if I have time for it.
To be honest I'm pretty interested in this, but I do have some questions.

1. On what timezone do you live on?
Or just tell me your country and I will look it up my self.

2. What state are your economy in?
I mean do you really have the money it takes for this, for hosting etc?

3. Will I get something for it or just the honor?
If I'm going to map everything I expect payment for my work.
But aslong as I have the interest and the joy to continue mapping I will do it free.

4. How long time are you expecting it to take?
2,4,6,8 months? 1,2,3 years, or more?

5. Will I get some kind of administrative task on the new server?
I would love to be an administrator on the server when It's up and running.
This is a question within parentheses due to the fact that it's pretty farfetched.

6. Do you have the sparetime and interest to really do this?
This will take alot of time and there will be some rough times.

I'm sure you seen my work before...

I will probably donate that map to you instead of fonline 2238 if I start mapping for you.

My abilities
• Alot of sparetime normally.
• Free mapping if I have the joy and interest for it.
• Basic knowledge about the mapper.
- Allready made my first map and I'm familiar with the mapper allready.

So that's about it... tell me if you want me in the team.
Add me on skype: "viktor.axelsson.".
