models and textures project

Rewelcome then Falthron, You don't really need any special program as long as your proggram can export to one of the following file types; Blender (.blend), Collada (.dae), Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg), Skeleton Mesh (.psk), Skeleton Anim (.psa), Stanford (.ply), Stl (.stl), 3d studio (.3ds), Wavefront (.obj), X3D Extensible 3D (.x3d/.wrl), or Ogre.

Also, Falthron, check out the new Art Assets thread, we are going to try and form an art team there to start to get to work on modelling, texturing, and the like.

Thank you both. As far as detailed content goes, I think we should stick with models exclusively for cell stage. That's the one that is in desperate need of being finished.

I know how to use maya, blender, and photoshop. Can I be of service to you?

timetraveler we need every skill you've got, check the Art Assets thred even if something is done you can think of a way to improve it. The team leads are still discussing what is needed i think but everything you make will be of help.

@Timetraveler: We'll manage what art assets that needs to be done using GitHub

1. Someone identifies an asset that is required, say, a 3D model for an organelle.
   
2. They create a new issue at GitHub that describes how the model should look, animations it should have, and so on.
   
3. Modellers in search for something to do check the issue list. I've added labels for "programming", "modelling" and "sound" to help the respective contributors find suitable tasks.
   
4. If a modeller is interested in the issue, they leave a short comment indicating that they started working on it. All contributors should check the comments for an issue to make sure that nobody else is working on it already.
   
5. A repository maintainer can assign the issue to the modeller. This helps in identifying orphan issues in the issue list, as assigned issues show up with the icon of their assignee.
   
6. The comment section for the issue can also be used for discussing the task, asking for clarification, etc.
   
7. Once the asset is done and uploaded into the asset repository, the issue can be closed.
   

Although, currently there's no tasks on there, were to disscuss what needs to be done at le art assets thread.

A task has been added on github for creating models for compounds for the christmas prototype!
Github issue

Thank you all! I'll see what I can do over my spare time.

A'ight. I'm following now.
