How does the PR team do all this???

Al Barash is amazing...the whole city and desert parts are insane. I'm wondering how you go about making a map like this. I've been into video editing (HD and all that), along with 3D animation/effects for years. I was thinking of messing around with a little game modding for fun, mainly level construction. Where do I start? Do you guys use that sandbox program I always hear about? I'm sure I would be good at it in time...but I don't know where to begin. For video editing/3D animation there are millions of tutorials online...but for modding I found nothing. So please tell me (esp Duckhunt who made Al Barash) what program and tools you guys used. Thanks alot!!

There is also a mod called Sandbox, where you can place stuff in-game, but no one builds maps that way

hmmm animator, belive the dev team loves you then...

[GeZe]

You are an animator?

If you are, PM one of the devs right now and apply!

The DEVs could really use a animator.

heh .. yeah .. what we could really use is a reliable animator.. we've gone through a few folks who offered animation help, but never had anyone stick with it for the long haul who was capable of doing work at the same level as the rest of the team.

PM me if yer interested.
