Project Armory Recruitment

[Evul]

The Recruitment board:
This is the recruitment board for Project Armory this board is used for recruitment to the PA development team.

Available Positions:

• C# Programmers
• Software Programmer (For multiplatform compatibility of the kit switcher)
• Programmers for XML files
• Pixel artist

*Note that tester recruitment are a separate board.

Requirements:

• Active
  There are one major requirement. You need to be active or semi active. you need to at least once a month show sign of life that you are still available. (Of cause life comes first but inform the Project Lead.) But many members show up make one weapon and disappear and we want to avoid that.
• Skill
  You need to have some kind of knowledge of the position you applying to. Does not mean that you need to be a pro. Cause its a mod after all and it exist to make the game more fun. Even Evul is not pro on everything ether, believe it or not.
• Teamwork and independence
  Project Armory is a huge team project and that mean that we have tools to comprehend with that. First of we have a SVN server gathering all our files. (use it there are no size limit.) and secondly we have a Mantis server to know whats being worked on. The mantis goes first you need to be active and update it when you working on a active weapon. Don't make something that is assigned to anyone else. So we avoid duplicates.

How to Apply:
When you think you can handle the 3 requirements you can apply.

Send your application in a PM to Evul:

Well, I used to do Minecraft texture packs so I'm no stranger to pixel art. However, I'm really not that good at uploading/sharing/sending images and I dont have a good texturing program, so I probably wont be able to help. My coding skills are non existent too.

I can work my way round the XML files with competency, but actually in C# I know very little. I was actually hoping to learn through modding this game. Basically, if you're recruiting for XML stuff, I'm applying, and if its for C#, I'm applying for an apprenticeship XD

[Hexxagon]

I´m no graphic man, but I can help with coding, I am quite good at C#, I´m actually 'studying' it at my school 

[Evul]

I'm searching a bunch of coders for XML coding and it is the highest priority cause it is the major modding languish and the one this mod will focus on.

[Architect]

In that case I am most certainly applying

[Hexxagon]

I understood the RimWorld original xml files quite good, and with a little bit of coding experience I coul probably help out, so if you need urgent help, I´d try it

I've been doing YouTube related stuff for a little over 1.5 years off and on. So I could help with that.

I also do have a little bit of art skills and can create stuff in photoshop so I guess there's that as well.

[dbltap441]

I have skills in coding for over 2 years in LUA and HTML and I know how to use Photoshop and flash proficiently if you want me to show you some of my works I can provide...

Here is an M249 SAW I did quickly. Unfortunately, imgur hates me so the background is white and its been blurred a little (Ok, alot). I will try find a workaround, but you could try just shaving off all the bits outside the black outline and using it.

Hello!
I am looking on new ways on doings the kit switcher
It whould be awesome if some on could help me out rebuilding and make it easier to costumiz and mentain.

An idé i have is have a customizable ini file (or somthing) that makes the kits. Example:

Kit{
All_Weapons;"All weapons"
Allf_scifiweapons;"All SciFi Weapons"
}

All_Weapons;
{
PA_Filename1.xml;"Weapon name1";
PA_Filename2.xml;"Weapon name2";
PA_Filename3.xml;"Weapon name3";
}
Allf_scifiweapons{
PA_Filename1.xml;"Weapon name1";
PA_Filename2.xml;"Weapon name2";
}
Etc...



In that way it will be easy to make up your own kits

I've got a good amount of coding experience, but a lot of it's more data processing than this. I can do regular art, but pixel art is haaaaard. Might cut my teeth by tinkering with textures that exist already.

[Evul]

You have helpt us so you are welcome aboard anytime
I can send you a pm with descriptions and login information for our development build

[Felime]

Do that, or poke me on the IRC, I'll try to hang around there for a bit, and I can shoot you my skype if I'm there when you do.

[Kantalope]

I would like to help I can do pixel art and i know some coding. I tried making a mod before and it didn't turn out so well, but my pixel art isn't bad.
