SiN: Source

[helious]

I Have started making a complete SiN Makeover (Inspired by Black Mesa Source), and i am in desperate need of some help.

Its pretty tough doing it all by your self, and therefore i need some staff members, with the skills, the time and the passion for SiN. Remember. This will become a quality Mod, and therefore i need people capable of making quality Levels, Textures, Weapon modelling, etc.

I hope some of you guys want to help me out. Together we can make this happen.

These are the people i need:

Level Designers, capable of making complex levels, with the original SiN level in mind, but with creative additions to the Level (Ref. Black Mesa Source)

Texture artists, capable of making high res textures (For now, we will use the textures provided in the SiN Episodes SDK)

Weapon Modellers, capable of making high quality models of the Original SiN weapons (Except the Assault Rifle, The magnum and the Shotgun)

Prop Modellers, capable of making high quality models of the Original SiN elements( For now we will use the original Sin Episodes Props)

Programmer, who can put all the maps, guns, etc into one working package, and make a website for the mod.

Artist, who can make a cool looking menu, the Hud, and general Gui.


I hope you guys want to help me out here.
I my self have already startet on the level designs

I'm on the Black Mesa mod as a prop artist and you seem to wanna work hard on this but let me give you a few words of advice.

Get a writer for help or do all the paperwork yourself. Someone that handles all the needed dialog and even writes down events that are gonna happen. This is essential and maybe even the most important role. You need to get everything on paper and plan the chapters carefully.
Every map should be on paper and carefully planed before you start to map it in hammer. Essentially, the more you have planed the easier others that join your project will have to work on it.

You all can of course start of and map the base for it but since SiN is a storybased shooter allot of research and such is needed. And the story script you have to be quite carefull with. We all have a hint on episode to but after that everyone is clueless.

Here's another fan with the same idea. Put your heads together and we'll see what comes out of this. Good luck.

Hey, if you want, check out my mod "Sinwizard" in the Sin 1 section of the forum. I fixed some annoying bugs in the game

Are you still trying to make this "re-release" i am totally interested i had the same idea myself and came on here to see if anybody else shared my visions.

I have a lot of ideas on how this should be made.
A few thoughts i have:

.Use as many textures and models as possible from Emergence
.Create a few new textures for the existing models i.e. the grunts
.Use as many sounds from emergence as possible and also use ones from the original sin game (i.e comms between blade + jc and grunt/jump/and blades rants sounds)
.recreate the original sin music to give the same old effect only with a sense of newness
.Only a few models will be needed - weapons/builders and the truck things you drive.
.Use Emergence HUD.

As you can see everything i have stated above is mainly in keeping with emergence. I feel this makes the game feel more "on par" with each other if you catch my drift. You will be able to play the remade sin and jump straight into emergence without it feeling like a whole new game. Of course there other ideas i have in mind but first things first get a website up and running with forums, project outline, recruitment application and FAQ.

I can also help with Level Making and Skinning (having created a few unreleased CSS maps/models but cba with uploading them :P)

P.S. by keeping things in keeping with emergence it makes it way more up to date though i do suppose you could remake the menu screen (though keep the music, i think it rocks)

Edit: If i can get some interest and perhaps a team of players i will be more than happy to lead; Design/create and pay for a website and already have my own ventrillo (makes communicating a damn sight easier).
If i can get just a few names of dedicated interest i will start making the above preparations. And i will be asking on valve forums aswell

Well, I do hope you go well with your mod.
I wish you the best of luck.

Just don't change Elexis' clothing.
Her face looks way perfect. Just re-skin her red clothe to silver instead.

I can't wait to hear updates on this mod.

I've never really discussed this topic much, but once I wanted to something similiar, but realized it impossible todo without one heck of a good coder on your side and a huge team. SiN is kinda dying. You woundn't find someone to help you out easily. Best of luck to you and your future projects.

[metalseed]

Don't let it die. Ppl still want to play!
