Hi there!
Vault6 is looking for a talented programmer. No pay, sorry! This is a fun project although it's merely fun but hard work. The game's name is "Contract Force - The Avalon Conflict" a real as well as turnbased strategy game. No details this time but there's a lot of framework already (including a highly realistic story as far as this is possible). Maybe you should just test the demo. Note that the level is just for testing and therefor doesn't represent the actual game. Short summary of what's done:
-fast pathfinding including "special" moves like jumping over small fences and climbing on roofs
-system to change clothes of the mercenaries (that will all have their own individual style)
-complex but easy to use inventory (almost done)
-item editor which gives you the ability to create your own items including name, description, attributes etc.
-csa editor which gives you the ability to create custom clothes/wound decals for you mercenaries
-mercenary and some weapon and level models created by Philipp Hoeffmann (also known as "xcelos" on the forums)
-framework including complete story, some locations, a few merc's biographies (and their skills), weapon list, formulas to calculate health points, action points, energy, movement etc
http://www.vault6.nano-games.de/down/0_02_9.rarshort manual:
<f> switch from/to turn based mode
<e> refill action points to 24
<s> change camera level (roof/floor)
<c> open console
<pgup>/<pgdn> climp/jump from/to roof (merc must be close to a wall)
<shift> color all items red
To use the console start path.exe with the argument "-d dev3"
console commands:
attach(name) - attaches csa file to current merc (use filenames located in data\csa\)
wire on - switches to wire mode
wire off - switches to solid mode
print trifaces - write amount of visible polygons into log file
where is jessica - just try it
Your task would be a level editor which is more work than you can think of. This is a very important task because most of the gameplay needs precalculated data (like line of sight calculation etc.)
Further details if you pm me.
