Hi all,

Just thought id announce a Left 4 Dead mod i am currently starting up. And wanted to see if anyone wants to get involved.. I wont go into to much detail on here, but i have a site up and running as well as a lot of Thread about the mod at L4Dmods.com

Website address is:

www.deadsafemod.com

We are also looking for some help so if anyone has plenty of free time and some and enthusiasm to dedicate to it why not drop me a note and get on board.

(Please be aware that all the mod members so far are professionals in the games industry so its a very professional setup, and would expect the same from any new members (professionalism not previous experience in the games industry) ;) ).

Currently were looking for some Code / Script support, preferably with some previous Source engine experience. But always looking for artists, animators or web experts too..

Any questions just ask..

Ta,

Nintenjo.

And yeah we do need some great screen shots at some point, but im more concerned with the finish the environments and getting some nice HDR lighting sorted. Those on the website were just uploaded to setup the media page :) So may very well need your services too :D

Direct Evacuation Assault Division

That doesn't make sense. Does it? Evacuation Assault?

Good luck with the mod though.:cool:

Direct Evacuation: Assault Division probably explains it better.

They are the Assault Division of the DE, or something like that :p
 
It does in combination with the first word, although would perhaps work better as Direct Evacuation: Assault Division.

Basically we get our asses in to get yours out!

-edit the above has said exactly what I have said while I was writing it! :D
 
Yeah.. well the wording might not make the most sense.. but lets not get too tied down with the title :) Thanks for the positives so far.

I'll get registered on moddb as well..
 
Hey,

Sounds like a cool idea so far, would love to help with this however I am in my final year of uni with 3 months left before I could take on anything like this. However after I finish I am looking to work on projects creating 3D assets, and character models.

I am not yet "Industry standard", however I do have a great love of 3D, and aim to work in the field once I have created a good portfolio. Currently designing and creating a character based around the left4dead limitations for my final year project, and would be quite happy to work with you on this if you were interested. However either way good luck as this does look like a very interesting mod!

'We need coders, animators and artists!'

This is a sure indicator that the mod's dead before it was even born.

You kind of miss quoted me there... i said we are looking for coders.. but always interested in others.

We have 3 environment artists and a character artist.. most of the weapon models i have already done and.. so its largely polish work in terms of animation. Our current coder just got a new job so wont be on the team much long hense why were "looking" for a replacement ...
 
Not keen on the name much but I like the concept, for me sarcasm doesn't work for a game title, that and it sounds to much like Dead Space.

Maybe D.E.A.D alone would be better but who am I to say :D

Thought the same and then thought Deep Encounters could be good :) but as its based on Evac wouldn't really make any sense :confused:

Feel free to use it though if you like, just make sure I get a mention ;)

Looks good. I'd really enjoy some nice London set-pieces. BTW you've got one and a half typos on your map: distrabution and meters (sic).
 
Its an interesting idea, but you are going to have to work a lot on the AI for the civillians, they need to be able to stay out of the way of hordes and not get in the way of the action while travelling or its just going to be annoying.
