Sticky Topic

Typical crap, typical solutions... Todays Rant!

Although my mood is rather sick i can not really give a rant right now as there is too much to rant about at the time. But maybe a major rant out to the current world is not bad. Have a look once at the number of environmental catastrophies (hurricanes, floods) that happened in the last couple of month. Now come tell me this is really not happening due to how we pollute the air and the rest of it. Oh yes, it has nothing to do with cars smoking dirty the athmosphere and global warming is simply a joke of WWF fanatics. Fortunatly people wake up soon enough to see that no effect exists without cause, and the cause is mankind itself.



News from the ticker

2000. yeah. not a year but page views. I have no idea when this happened nor did i pay any attention to it until a couple of minutes ago. Personally i don't know who i should thank for that as 99% of those people i have never seen before and after leaving their mark in the visitor statistics vanish into the oblivion of the dasphere once again unnoticed. A little bit sad how this place works as this is not really what i expected it to be in the beginning. But anyways, it's now 2000, however it happened. Looks like i now the next number is 3000. Oh cool, numbers... One of the reasons this place looks to me like a grave filled with zombies lacking any vividness i found in other communities. Maybe this changes... although... i witnessed many forums and comunities turning bad as the number of newbies increased like hell, also bringing along many n00bs. Judging after this old rule DA can only become worse, not better. A bit sad... really.

People somehow related to the Epsylon Project

This section devotes to people who showed interest in taking part in the Epsylon Game Projector that are already part of it or are otherwise affiliated with the project. Many thanks for the interest in contributing work at this place. The world needs more people doing something to share and building together a great project and not simply sitting egoistically on their work. I started this project as community project instead of yet another commercial project and it did already attract a couple of people and interest which I did not think at the beginning. to the helpers in the background who make this all possible.

  ==> Team Member: Concept Artist
==> Possible Future Contributor: Mapper
==> Possible Future Contributor: Programming, Interface Design
==> Affiliate: Has his own Mod-Project. Have a look at it.

There are still jobs open. Currently we are in need of people able to Skin 3D Models and/or creating World Textures (things like urban textures, nature textures, technical textures). If you are interested just send me a Note.

The Good People

I always hatted those icon collections of good people as it somehow puts the 'bad' stamp on all the other people that know you. Still some people really stand out of the mass that floods DA on a daily basis and as I have been mentioned on other peoples lists already I think it is just fair to give some credit back. If you are missing on the list and think you really belong here send me a Note so I can add you.

  ==> Nice guy to talk with. Is engaged in a Game-Dev project too.
==> Besides doing concept art for the Epsylon Project he leads his own Mod-Project.
==> Besides producing really nice Beasty-Series he devotes to promote Backyard Trees. This deserves to be mentioned especially.



Clubs

Major reason for this journal entry to place credits to the clubs I am in. Just a shame DA ruins all with their fucking stupid limitations. Here it goes in no particular order.
