-s/<itzo- Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Originally posted by seks03 (are these models ever gonna be released?) be patient grasshoper.. yeah it did seem like it deemed down a bit. maybe because theres not alot of releases goin on lately and people probably got tired of waiting. once a anticipated model is release it will be back to good ol' self again. but not in here though. check out the showcase section. that is where its happening. all the WIP:models got moved over there.

Elessar-Eärfalas Posted November 22, 2002 Author Share Posted November 22, 2002 yah i know about all the WIP being moved, its just that no one is here anymore, lol. it seems to me like in the summer everything was so big and this forum was bigger then the swamp. but once school started again,i thikn thats why its not the same. people are way more busy and have little to no time to model, including me. i have no time anymore to model, hence the Pablo-Jill model, lol. so now that every got moved, whats the point of this forum? the modeling forum...?

Bell Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 i'm still here hehehe, well i've noticed this is the case with most forums, they die down a bit after the initial frenzy, but the hard core people are around always, its the newbies that come and go. Most of them, once they realize how much work it is, get discouraged and move on. At least thats one theory. But our mod is going strong and hopefully will have chapter one released after the holidays. I'm still working on getting my character model in game. I spent the last week going over this forum, all 56 pages, and compiled all the character modeling and exporting info into a faq that will be up on our mod sight when it gets released in december. So there are still things going on around here i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 I think the reason why only few people visiting this forum are all the new restriction and the new forums you have to post your new threads. a forum realy lives when there is free communication and its organised by topics. the new forums they made here arent thematical they are functional, ex. questions here, answers there (functional) ; modeling or mapping are thematical forums. first fault in my view was the request forum, so many times i saw an answer on a question: this dont belong here, it needs to be in ... , you .... ! now they made this showcase forum, again restrictions were what belong and what you may ask and what not. people get disencouraged and stop participating, they are just looking what is in the showcase forum cause there are the most disscues threads. it would have been better if they made new forums like "player modeling" or "weapon modeling" were questins, requests and WIPs all together are posted, so people have all this topic together. there would be more and better communication between expirienced and less once. it make no sence to make a forum only for newbies, they (we) can learn better if we have contact to "oldies". the only reason i see why they made it like this, is the position of control. like this the moderators have much more power to allow and ban things. this isnt my view of free communication. information seeks for freedom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NITEMARE Posted November 27, 2002 Share Posted November 27, 2002 you mean chaos... it's way better like this. i don't want to see those WIP all the time when looking into modeling issues and if i want to see what people are woring on (so i don't start with something already done/in progress) then i want to see them all at once and separated from the stupid questions... i like it that way!
