Title: Like Troika's Temple of Elemental Evil D&D 3.5 PC Game? Want to help improve it?
Post by: Endarire on August 09, 2018, 01:40:41 AM
Greetings, all!

I've been a big fan of Temple of Elemental Evil (https://www.gog.com/game/the_temple_of_elemental_evil), so much so that I've contributed mods to this game:  I voice acted the NPC Human Cleric of St. Cuthbert Ronald Rynnwrathi (https://co8.org/community/index.php?threads/the-circle-of-eight-modpack-explained.7737/) and modded some inventory scripts for improved item availability (https://co8.org/community/index.php?threads/endarires-mods-for-co8-v8-1-0.11995/).  (Worry not about review sfor vanilla ToEE since the Circle of Eight and Temple+ mods have drastically improved this game over vanilla!)

I also felt like our communities on the Circle of Eight/Co8 Forums (https://co8.org/community/index.php) and Temple+ Forum (http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?forums/toee-modding.98/) have remained largely isolated from the rest of the world, including people who liked D&D 3.5, Pathfinder, Arcanum, Fallout, or/and other Troika/Interplay/Black Isle games.  (Some people who worked on the original Fallout series - notably, Tim Cain - also worked on ToEE and Troika titles.)

While programmers are likely in the highest demand, if you're interested in helping in any capacity, there's likely a spot for you and something helpful to do.  Great with portraits?  Background art?  3D modeling?  Audio?  Something else that seems relevant to improve ToEE or/and its expansion modules of Keep on the Borderlands (https://www.moddb.com/mods/the-keep-on-the-borderlands), Icewind Dale (https://co8.org/community/index.php?forums/icewind-dale-total-conversion.108/) or/and something else that should be done?  Let's talk!  (For example, Against the Giants (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Against_the_Giants) has been a commonly-requested module to be ported to ToEE, but certain critical aspects have been lacking, preventing working on this module in earnest.)

On the Co8 Board (https://co8.org/community/index.php), contact Allyx (https://co8.org/community/index.php?members/allyx.3142/) or/and Sitra Achara (https://co8.org/community/index.php?members/sitra-achara.19/).  On the Temple+ Forum (http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?forums/toee-modding.98/), contact Sitra Achara (http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?members/sitra-achara.1064/).

Regardless, tell them that Endarire sent you.  Also tell them that you want to learn more about helping with ToEE or/and an associated project and in what regards (audio, background art, coding, etc.)

Together, we can improve this game, this engine, and all associated media.

Thankee!
