Project Make-Over
Intro
So what exactly is this? Well, I just happened to be bored and want to help out people who need it. I will basically take a look at your project if you are struggling and give pointers on where to go, how to improve certain aspects and what you're doing correctly so far. I may even help reconstruct an event system or map.
The Process
Step 1: So you want me to help, huh? Well, I'm busy, so that means I can only take limited requests. If you want me to take a look at your project please send this form to
painshop@hotmail.comWhat is the name of the project?
How far is it in development?
What, in your opinion, is the field that it is struggling the most in? (I.e Scripting, Eventing, ETC)
What, in your opinion, is the field that it is strongest in? (I.e Scripting, Eventing, ETC)
Specify the main theme of the project and a brief story summary (This is so I understand what kind of mapping style is best for your project) :
Please specify what you require help with (Please keep this within reasonable bounds, I am only human) :
Is there a deadline that
MUST be met for a specific feature/aspect/area of the game?
What have you done so far to try and correct said problems?
Lastly, do you have any form of instant messaging to communicate with? (MSN, Yahoo, Gmail, ETC)
That's it. Should only take 10 minutes to fill out.
Step 2: Now that you have sent the form, please wait until I have reviewed it. If anything is missing I'll email you requesting the information. Once you've been confirmed, I will ask that you send me the project, if you wish to keep certain things private, such as some scripts or map, kindly request so in the email, I will keep my word not to look, or simply exclude the files from the project folder.
Step 3: I will look at the project and give some starter tips, as well as a date when we can talk about the project over instant messaging. During this talk I will go into an in-depth analysis, or at least try my best to help. Remember, I'm helping based off my experience, so if your project is far too complex or already is awesome, I can't do much except say "Good job. Next."
So, fire away. If you have questions, feel free to ask. Just one last note, don't think of this as a life saving revamp of your project. It's just some simple tips and advice, and possibly a few makeovers here and there. You will be doing a lot of the corrections yourself, just with my guidance.
