Avlis Gearing Up Its NWN2 Team

Post by Orleron » Wed Aug 30, 2006 2:16 pm

It's that time, folks! We are now going into serious development of our NWN2 server. At this point in time, most of the work consists of concept design and prototyping, with great regard being given to ideas on history, economy, crafting, community, and other human element things that are so important for success. Nevertheless, within a couple months we should have a toolset, and some of us are going to possess the beta toolset even before that, so let's get crackin'!!

We are looking for anyone who wants to develop for us. It's a clean slate. No prior Avlis experience necessary. We will take any qualified individual and give him or her the opportunity to be a part of our work group. If you are a builder or content creator looking for a position, contact Aloro: aloro@avlis.org

If you are unsure what you want to do, contact me: orleron@avlis.org or Dougnoel: dougnoel@avlis.org

There's a lot of work to be done, and we're going to organize it before we proceed, and we hope to see you in Avlis: Crosstreams for the grand opening.

(For more info on Avlis: Crosstreams, look here.)

What about people who already are on the team? Do they have to mail too?

Nope. We'll be putting you to work over time, after we figure out the balancing between NWN1 and NWN2.

I am not a coder and unfortunately a toolset noob, but one task I would volunteer on if someone could get me a table with all avlis items and their WEIGHTS is to give EVERY ITEM a realistic weight. Once the table is done you can work your magic to import things.

Other things, I could do is I am a reasonable writer and if people give me drafts of stuff for the PW I could flesh them out if they want.

For the rest I don't have much else to contribute but enthusiasm, limitless imagination and a "moderate" IQ :twisted:

Oh and I'd be willing to do that for avlis 1 too :)

If my schedule would allow me to, I would without a doubt volunteer to build areas and maybe a bit of writing because I have some experience with both. For now all I can do is wish you hard working people good luck. I can't wait to see what you all make. :D

I really doubt you will have a lack of volunteers for this. Too many people want to see it grow and flourish.
