Project Metroplis
 

This is the Project Metroplis hiring thread here I will fill you in a little about the project and what staff I need and how you can join the development team. Please do not post spam here as this is a seirous thread.

All I am at liberty to tell you about the project is that it will be a modern themed player world with an original style of playing never tried before to date. The whole world will be very detailed and will NOT FOCUS on player killing with guns or by other means.
A tile set is in the works and much more is on the way.

Two things will be posted in this thread. First a small preview of the tiles and secconedly a little concept art. I will show you these in later on in the thread. But now without delay the staff positions open on the team.

-Web Designer

-Level Development Team

-Graphics Development Team

-Coding Development Team

-Sound Effects Team

-Music Team

If you wish to join the team send me an e-mail at [email protected] for a further application.

Screen shots?.
It sounds good, but post the tiles!:)

Well a screenshot of the tiles, don't want them stolen :cool:

Tiles are being totaly redone heres the tiles I first made about 2 months ago.

and the concept I made isnt much. I still want a scanner because my real skill is in drawing. But heres a quick thing I did in psp as fast as possible. just for some content. Enjoy :D

Looks ok.

I like the little mousehole in the wall. Thats a good touch.

Yeah, some things seem oddly out of proportion (sp? brainfart), even for graal... @_@;

I love it!. Good luck:D

That is why I was reluctant to show the tiles at first but I am fixing everything.

Man, this looks great! I'll be your webmaster. I love the graphics. They look so interesting and inviting, begging me to come play that playerworld. Great job!

I like what I see!!! Keep up the great work.

Holy ****... I can't believe I like it but I do.. Well all I could judge was that first screen you posted but it looks very nice. Good Job!

Well that screen inst much im changing the tiles up a bit I might post a new screen shot later.

I agree some of the stuff is out of proportion... Little tip, on the mousehole, you should try and make it more jaggy. Real mouseholes aren't smooth and perfect like the one's on Tom & Jerry. :p They are just chewed through holes in the wall.

Koni - it doesn't need to resemble a real one... Tom and Jerry are cartoons, so is Graal. Sorta.

Only thing i'd change is to make the wall outlet smaller, it looks like it's the size of an 8x10 picture hanging there... same for the light switch.

Feels like the walls should be larger. It might fix the proportion problem also.

:)

sockets and light switch redone :D

looks nice. Also I am fixing the walls making them larger and adding a few new angles to them as well.

Looks great!

Very nice :D GL to you.

that is great graphics. if you can get that to work with graal..... please call me to see your levels first lol. I love that

Yeah i'd definately like to check this place out when they buy a server

Looks great, I'll be sure to check it out if you get this baby rolling. ;)

I like your body, but it's a bit out of style now.

I don't really like the sideways power outlet, but that might just be me. Sideways might even be better if you're going to script npcs that look like cords line up to them

um.. arent sideways power outlets the norm?

Infact ive never seen a power outlet one-on-top-of-the-other in my life O.o

Erm. All my household outlets are like that.

I think when it comes to how the power outlets are arranged, it all depends where in the world you are located, and how old is your property. When I used to live in a very old house as well as when I would travel, I would see the sideways power outlets. Whenever I was back in the US or in newer building, I usually would find the vertical power outlets.

Yeah I've never seen sideways outlets either. :) But I'm sure they exist so oh well! heheh

The clothing he is wearing is quite outdated though... If it's a present day server, that guy would seriously get laughed at. :p

In the uk all power outlets are sideways..

Not if he were living in a rural part of china or something

I have both types! :)

There's a mouse hole on Era :rolleyes: omfg u faked :rolleyes::rolleyes: :)( :o :rolleyes: :D :grin: :mad:

The outlets in my house are vert. But in metroplis they will be varied depending on exactly where you are.

His clothing is based on the style of his location. Its not exactly present day it is rather present day mixed with a fantasy world. There will be things that are very similar to modern times and thing that are not.

Do not expect to see all the same style clothing ethier people will have different stlyes from city to city including clothing, the food they eat, the products they produce, arcitecture, and much more.

The mouse hole thing isnt from era at all, it's from tritan but I wont go into that. I will leave it at this: It was made because it will serve a very annoying purpose. And mouse holes are a very general thing belonging to no one.(except of course the mice who infest them ;) )

If hes faking anything than the current world. Era is a fake by itself everything is a fake so never use era and fake anymore in one sentence ^^.

I thought everwhere in china was urban ;)

Never seen a side-ways power outlet...

Any way I figure since all yall have seen so far is the first preview I will release a seccond it is also pretty old and some of the errors are being fixed right now also the walls are changing to a more iso feel sort of like graal kingdoms walls.

Haha! I love the little man scratching his head!@ CLASSIC! :D

The wall at the bottom of the preview tony just posted will fade partially so you can see in there.

Those screenshots of PM are nice... best GFX I've seen on a modern day server so far.
