We can implement everything in OpenGL from the very beginning, for the matter. I just don't feel it'd be right for "old-school" tile-based engine to only have 3D renderer.


Absolutely. Qt skin mechanics can easily mimic any visual style, including Arcanum's one, so we can use standard GUI designer tools for fast-prototyping and then colorize them as needed. Look at modern Qt-based interfaces - it's hard to tell if it's game or business app.

Anyway, renderer itself is really small part of the app, anybody can scratch semi-decent renderer. Architecture is much more significant.

This idea is awesome!

I would love to help with the project, barring any coding jobs.

Unfortunately, coding is not my cup of tea. However, if you have any other necessary jobs I might be able to take on I'd be more than glad to help the team.

My brothers and I always considered multiplayer Arcanum to be a wonderful, impossible, dream...

This add-on would be a real dream come true!

Keep up the good work, and let's bring Arcanum back to life!

Have you any 3D modeling proficiencies?

Sorry, no!

And I'm also sorry this reply took so long.

I'm afraid moderation or writing for the project is all I can imagine I'd be able to do.

In the meantime, I might as well spread the news, right?

Its okey, I can do some modeling, I was modding a CnC:TW a year+ ago and I've made/edited a lot of models Also I did a few anims, so if it will be needed, I can refresh my memories

Wizard:
Do you know graphics? I mean in photoshop for example I want new design for websites, and I was able to create only new header, rest of website (post, footer, menus..) I couldnt design because of lack of imagination

PS: We have also a flying airship at website I've added that today...

I do not personally have any knowledge either of photoshop or web design, but almost all of my siblings do!

I'll drop my most web savvy brother a line and see if he wants to throw in with you guys.

Yep. How about bit of advertising for qtScribe project then?

Yeah, some small ad will help us and to qtScribe

Now it reminds me that we dont have a banner for our website, like ArcanumClub has on our website in Links menu. It will be good for exchange

so I'm going to create one or two now...

PS: About web design, I need only graphics so anybody can create a website in photoshop, and I can cut that and create a website template from that.
