So, on the insistence of spot, and after seeing how empty this section of the forum is, I decided I would post something about my project idea here. I didn't think it would fit into the other sections due to there being a few things needed done for this, so yes.


I said once..somewhere on here, that I planned to make models of mines that would float in the air as opposed to the water for this game I play on occasion (like I haven't mentioned it before!) called Spring.

Now, the plan for these mines would be for them to be flat (I'll upload a screenshot of the rough copy ASAP) and to be able to float at various altitudes, and for some of them to be cloakable. Obviously it will take a good bit of energy resources and the like to manage that in game, so I will either have to learn LUA or find someone who is very good with it to pull this off. But, of course, I have to actually finish making decent textures for the model I've constructed and hammer out the rest of my hopes and wishes for it before I drag someone else in to get started on it.

I'm really interested in eventually taking this and starting up either my own mod for the game (if I can assemble a team to do such) or find an already popular mod (such as the ever growing Complete Annihilation mod) to add this model unit to just to see if it will have some use.

I see it as something useful and even amusing in my mind. Imagine a set of planes flying at you to bomb your base, and they hit something in the air they cannot see and explode, raining down bits of flaming plane bits around your units and Commander. I know I'd get a giggle out of it. :>

I think I'll shut up now and let spot ask his questions, and anyone else that may want to ramble on in here. :x
