Hartland is hiring Staff
 

We are now hiring Developers. Please send tasks for EVERY Area you wish to develop for Hartland.

Requirements:

You must have 5 referees and a way for us to contact them (2 of them must be well known Developers).
You must be dedicated to Hartland. So you should spend a lot of time online. And you must only work on Hartland, no where else (for security reasons).
You should be able to role play, or at least try to.
Post your AIM in order to apply, I'll contact you as soon as I can. If you can't post on these forums, post on Hartland Forums.

Levels
5 Levels need to follow the following guidelines:

A waterfall with a river. The cliff should be near a forest, and there is a cave in the cliff.
Make a cave level with puddles of water. Connect it to the first. This cave leads to another side of the cliff.
A cliff levels with the exit from a cave leads to a village. Make a village of sorts.
All of the hosues are closed off exept one, make inside(s) for that house.
But if you go by the road you'll come out to a Castle. Create an original Castle.

Creativity is counted for and appreciated. Remember that proper use of light effects will spruce up a level, and graphics will make it interesting.

Graphics
3 Graphics:

Create 1 sprite sheet for an animal. Include as many sprites as you can.
Make temple tiles the way you think a temple should look. (Outside).
Any other GFX you wish to show.

Originality is rewarded.

NPCs
3 NPCs:

Make a menu of sorts.
Script a creature. Use any spritesheet, this is confidential. But if a sprite sheet is your own that would be nice.
Put a 3rd NPC of any kind into the mix.

I should have mad a graalian award for most *****ic requirement ever. LOL.

That's done for security as well. If person is unknown to me I wouldn't want to hire him so that he can go destroying the server. This requierment allows for more trust towards the person.

[Edited out the last comment]

lol, so if they are the best Developer graal has seen, but are unknown, they aren't going to be staff on your server?

uhh... Probably... :\

If they are the best developer Graal has seen I'll see it through their work.

You don't have a valid point here. So I'll stop replying to any posts regarding that point.

Is the tryout kinda like a town they have to make.. what will be on hartland.. kinda sound's like it :p

No, none of the stuff sent in Aplications will be used on Hartland, unless permission is given by the sender of the aplication (Owner of teh graphics/levels/scripts).

And now nothing like that will appear on Hartland. I simply tried to get the most out of the 5 level req, in order to see ability of the person in different tile fields (Inside/Outside/Cliffs/Water/Town/Castle).

kk, do a 6 level tryout:D 3 inside 3 outside

Actually, I do, and I am right. :)

Why work on a server you show nothing for. People want to see what they will be working for. It might help to get more people if show some screens.

That's exactly what I was thinking....
MadMartigan approached me to work on Trib and I wanted to see some stuff before I actually said yes..

Find the screen shots yourself :p

Yup there are a few screenshots on Hartland Forums as well as these forums, just do a search 0.o

and I bet you don't regret it either. ;)

Normally I dont show people anything for a 2 week trial period. In which we assign small tasks that wont be detrimental to the server if its leaked. Then after some work is done and a person is found trustworthy we allow them to see the rest of the server. But having known Valder for a while I knew what I was getting into and had no problem with trusting him.

I feel the 5 references is a bit over kill personally but to each their own. I personally dont care about references as long as they prove themselves trustworthy through various appointed tasks and getting to know them on more of a one on one basis. Like Oinkness for example. I was very reluctant to hire him as I didnt know him at all. Especially in the taboo area of music where most things are stolen. But he's proven himself trustworth, loyal and has even branched out into other areas of development. :) Definatly glad I hired him.

...No

You are looking for staff. You should try and get people.

You can see the character in my sig (and Androk's).

Two Threads:
Thread 1
Old Screenshot Showing Inside Tiles

Two Images:
Foxy
Outside

I guess Androk just figured people would take some initiative and look or simply know from looking at previous posts. Anyways, that should satisfy anyone who wanted to see screenshots of Hartland.

Actually, you are a complete *****. If
someone is the best developer on Graal
and no one knows about him/her then I
wouldn't want them working on my server
for the simple fact they obviously don't
communicate well.

How about you go get some 'smarts' and
make us all happy?

Funny '*****', most people did not know about Giltwist for a long time, and he was one of the best scripters on graal, and now he is on the forums, and gets along with most people fine. Please don't try to randomly flame when what you say is *****ic, and untrue. ;)

Well, I was interested in working for Hartland before, but I got a music job on Shifting Ages instead. :) I don't really like Hartland's graphics anyway...

Best of luck finding staff.

o_O Weren't you the one talking crap about UC servers in that other thread?

Huh? Where? I've never once badmouthed Shifting Ages or any other UC server (unless I had a good reason) to my knowledge....
