invite to modellers,skinners,coders

okay i know its still early especially since the game has even gon on sale yet but here is my idea.

i want to create a whole new station in freelancer in the Cortez system, (it will be a custom model hopefully) the new station will be called INFINITY SHIPYARDS, i'm hoping to get a team together to build some custom ships to go into freelancer then when a ship is complete we will make it available to buy from the shipyard in the game. rather than just downloading it from the net and installing it yourself and having to configure everything yourself, this way just run the file you download from our site. and everything will be put in for you.
all you have to do is go to the shipyards and buy the ship you want.


so if anyone is intersted please send me an e-mail with some images or files of your previous work and we can start.

check out our website here Infinity shipyards

okay the website link above is now working. be warned though if your on 56k it is a flash website and will take slower machines a bit longer to load ok.

sounds really cool.
hows about a whole new system in which the station will be and maybe some testcourses? But if i understood the system of multiplayer you have on every server a new character ???? So the people has to come on your server make the big money and then buy a ship just to have it, so they could then buy it on another server (if the server has your ships).
Am i wrong???

This sounds like a great idea! I would like to help if possible. I can't really help with modelling or texturing but I can most likely hammer out the INI configurations for you

Hey if you need another modeller , let me know.

while i have plenty of time to model , i have no real projects.

I'm good at both model and texture creation, although I'm rather unfamiliar with the way FL and SL have their textures mapped, I usually just make several maps and apply them to different regions of the model. I'd show you an example of my work, but after my last crash, I lost all my models.

There are only 10 kinds of people in the world:
those who understand binary, and those who don't.

It sounds like a good idea.
I might join you if I find some more time to spend on my computer.
You know what I can do : modeling (if it's quite simple) and texturing.
Do I need to send samples of my "work" ?

well i plan on starting with a small team and build from there so i'll be sending out e-mials this week hopefully to you guys. the plan is to make the mod downloadable from the net and then you can put it on your on server as well as an on-line one, yes the idea is you'll have to make your money then buy the ships, but we dont plan on them being too expensive.
also we may yet need to add a system to the universe since is seems we may only be able to have three ships per station so the plan is to have north south east west, etc parts of the shipyard to get the different ships.

feed back and ideas welcome?

Darkpetzi, Hi dude no no need to show your previous work, your talent speaks for itself, can i have your e-mail addres, also Data Droid can i have your address too?

GAG, I loved what you did for modding with Starlancer. Any chance those custom ships of yours and others could be loaded into FL. Overall I am dissapointed with FL ship design.

Wow, this idea sounds really cool, perhaps we could bring together some of the other ideas going around. I would love to be part of the team if I could offer any assistance. I'm not any good with models, but if you need another person on the .ini front I could help out.

One thing I would suggest is that the infinity shipyards should only make elite ships - keep it a feature for the advanced players hehe. We really need a few more models released first, I have only seen one so far. It would be good to get some modlers making specificaly styled ships as well.

I also like the idea of having it in it's own system, it would be nice to keep it seperated from the rest of the game, I'm sure a small system with a costom planet or two would be easy enough.

well F131 i do plan on reviving a few old ones but i'll give them a good texture overhaul before i import them into freelancer. things are moving well we are building a good team and a few ships are already popping up, i have sent out the first lot of e-mials so some of you should be getting them today if not already.
the website has been updated with the new ship as well as adding the new staff.

and credit where it is due Darkpetzi and you have deserved it.
