Coder Looking To Join Outpost
« on: August 19, 2005, 08:16:51 PM »
Hey, I found out about this Outpost 2 mod from my friend (Instigator).
I am a C++ coder with 4+ years experience. I have a lot of experience in AI coding, using pathfinding algorithms, neural networks, expert systems (learning systems), sensory input systems for AI npcs, combat AI, and more.
I also know a lot about entity systems, and gameplay coding.

I haven't done an RTS before, but I've played a lot of them.
And I know a lot about C++ programming, so I can learn how to code an RTS quick.

Great! welcome aboard

I already talked to Instigator about this yesterday.. there ARE some projects going on here in the Outpost Universe. Please check them out. Most of them are either dead in the water, or just a single-coder effort. I know for sure 2 of them are still alive: OP: MIA and OP: Renegades.  MIA is done by leeor, and renegades by me. I can't speak for him, but i don't 'need' an extra coder, since all AI you have experience with is mostly included in the op2 executable, or is very difficult to add, or change (renegades is a campaign running ON outpost 2, it's *just* a couple new missions). MIA is a totally new game, based on the original Outpost (1), but built from scratch.

There's one more project, that is just taking shape, which is a new OP3 game, that some people want to get started. We're attracting coders and non-coders to work on it. Please read the programming and coding sections of this forum.


Enjoy your stay.
Rule #1:  Eddy is always right
