<div class="IPBDescription">environment artist looking to lend a hand</div>This my first post so hello to everyone! I've recently just come off a project where I was doing both the level design and environment art. It ended up taking over a year, and i wasted too much time learning level design through basically trial and error. That level is around 90% done, missing a few textures, ambient sounds and the odd model. but I've put it on hold till they release the public beta and I get some feedback before I finalize anything.
Now for my next project I want to learn from my mistakes and find a experienced level designer who's equally motivated to expand the content for this great game and make something that's going to be both fun and good looking. Weather you've got something in the works or have (like me) been stewing on how to approach a project please give me a heads up via these forums or on steam: <a href="http://steamcommunity.com/id/howser" target="_blank">http://steamcommunity.com/id/howser</a>.
I haven't got a website up yet so here's some shots of random pieces I've made, not much of a portfolio but try use your imagination :P
Thanks

I appreciate how hard game development is. I'm studying computer science and this has basically been my obsession for the last 15 years... but are you really expecting someone who's good at level design to just do this out of pure passion? Why should I even care about your game? You've told us absolutely nothing that makes me more interested in developing for your project than I am for developing for NS2, an already released game where at least I know someone will actually play on my map when I'm finished (if I were actually a mapper).
I'm not trying to give you a hard time for no reason... but you really need to do better than this. It's ok to not have a website, but you're basically showing me screenshots of a terrible one man battlefield clone. Why should I care?
Sorry to bump but I thought i best respond to clarify any misunderstanding. This was never intended to get someone to help on some random project, I was trying to find someone to work on a NS2 map with me. I had just come off that project, finishing my map and I was looking to move engines and games. As it goes all the good friends I've since made in the mapping forums are all working on their own projects and it's quite hard to muster in mid-development on someones map. I'm helping people with random texture requests but that's about as far as it goes.
So currently I'm working on my own NATURAL-SELECTION 2 MAP, doing both the level design and the environment art. It's a big undertaking and it'll probably take a good year or two. All i was trying to do is find a partner to help make an Natural-selection 2 map with. I apologize for any lack of clarity in the post and for posting it in the wrong forum sections.
Peace
