Currently his main duty is learning how to login to stuff.  Then he gets to download LOTS of other stuff, and then he gets to boss people around a whole bunch.
Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!
Post by: kindofdoon on October 26, 2010, 12:54:10 PM
Is he replacing someone or just starting a new position?
Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!
Post by: snabbott on October 26, 2010, 01:54:52 PM
New position, I believe. More help = you get TSL sooner! !!! (within reason, that is)
Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!

Then we should all join!

I suppose I should amend this to say:
More help = you get TSL sooner and/or you get a better TSL.

Yeah, the systems stuff wasn't bad at all. Really quick job on that by the way Weldon. That was nice. Now I'm trying to digest way too much too fast. Hmm... Production... I guess it's like the Darth Vader of a project. Bringing order to the galaxy, making the emperor's life easier, ensuring the TIE Advanced get TWO coats of wax but we can probably skip it on the TIE Fighters... and we get a really cool outfit too.

No actually, I've done this position before but not in the video game domain. I'm really excited about it.

It's not that it's not fun - we just don't get the same experience you do - there aren't too many surprises (other than bugs).
Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!
Post by: kindofdoon on October 26, 2010, 06:42:59 PM
Lol.

Still, it must be a very cool experience to shape the game in such a direct way.

It's interesting to say the very least.  Sometimes it's more work than I ever imagined and other times it's less (those rare occasions when something works the way we want it to the first time we try it and we sit back and enjoy the moment for a couple minutes and wonder how we got so lucky on that particular task).  It's like on Mythbusters when something works exactly how they want it to the first time and they are just as much shocked as proud.

You can't really see any detail in the forum-sized image, but oh well. Also I couldn't really find Vader in any poses similar to the original, so I sorta had to change the pose.

Now to make some more TSL wallpaper...Hmmm...

Post by: Haids1987 on October 29, 2010, 03:46:10 PM
Hmmm.  Maybe something with the sea nymphs?  Give one four mouths?  ;)

I'm kidding about the four mouths thing, but seriously, it'd be cool to see what you do with the sea nymphs.  And of course, something to do with the Isle of Wonder is always fun.  Maybe the garden?

Of course I'm enthusiastic, Doon!  I am the founder of your fan club! :D
Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!
Post by: kindofdoon on October 29, 2010, 04:00:15 PM
Let's see... *puts on nonprescription glasses and rummages through files*

Here's what I've got in those areas.

(http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/7270/nymphfinal.jpg)

(http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/7885/tslep204.jpg)

Not a very large selection, or an especially good one. The screenshot of the garden is outdated; it's been updated since that was taken (for example, with vines on the rotten tomatoes). I personally prefer the underwater nymph picture, but there's not much editing I can do other than slapping a logo on it. But if you have any ideas and/or pictures, send them my way!

Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!
Post by: Haids1987 on October 29, 2010, 04:08:54 PM
Try doing what you did with the map, the druid village, etc. and do a split down the middle with the garden.  Y'know, the old/new comparison.
Title: Re: Woot! Just plain old Woot!
Post by: kindofdoon on October 29, 2010, 04:11:08 PM
Now that's something I can do. Maybe I'll finish it tonight.

Oh, there's also that Cyborg Graham mod I need to work on...
