Is there anyone who would be interested in creating a full replacement(14 lvls) for DF? I'm pretty new to DF editing so I don't want to do this by myself. The plotline would be something like this:

The New Republic found prototype Phase I and II DTs on Wayland, the Emperor's private storehouse. The DTs were sent to be examined but the ship carrying them msyteriously disapeared. The New Republic has called Kyle Katarn back to service to investigate.


Sound interesting?

Do you know how long it takes to create 1 DF level?
To be honest I don't think you're going to find anybody interested in building your levels for you.

I would do a lot of work on this myself but I would like it to be a team project because I know how long DF levels can take. I've been working on mine for about 3 yrs now and its not half done.

The best thing to do is to get a level finished yourself - that's all your own work - and then people can see that you're serious and may be more interested in helping you out.

Keep going Smile

I wanted to make JC a ten level series, but it was significantly reduced when I realized the plot made it so it had to have a limited amount of levels. It was then reduced to 6. I was hoping to have the bulk of it done by the end of the summer, but as it stands, I don't know when the second level will be finished.

I would help, but I've got enough on my plate as it is...sorry Sad

Hell- originally The Dark Tide was supposed to stand as a complete replacement for Dark Forces (essentially Dark Forces 1.5). It all started when I was annoyed that Jedi Knight wasn't released for Mac. I still have a sketchbook with all my big plans. Several of the level ideas would still be great standalone levels. Especially the one on a moving ocean ship, "Storm Bird".

Eh heh heh, I learned that the hard way with SBoT. I should have devided that into two levels: one with the city, the second with the base.... That's actually not a bad idea....

For some odd reason, DF level making is a monumental task. I have more or less put my series(!) on indefinite hold, and am working on a JK mission instead...

Damn, I really miss DF2000... Sad And all the people who said they'd release their levels from that never did! And when in the world might the Open project be close to completion? We seriously should not start these things unless we intend to fully finish them, guys. The best multi-level projects remain unfinished due to lack of dedication! Razz

I'm still working on this project. After reading Mini-Levels? I decided to make it a series of mini levels instead. I have about half of the first level done. Anyone who would like to help with a level or two, I can send you what i have done already and some ideas on a plot.
