Annoucing The New Mod Request Site

**masterj3123** · 08-05-2005, 01:52

I used to be a member at ferrets old skin request site but its kinda dead and disorganized. So with the coming release of BI i figure more people will get back into rtw. So new site if anyone wants a new unit or any other kinda mod done. link

I think the old skin request died due to poor balance of supply and demand. There's a lot of demand while barely any supply. Also, many people expect to put in a request and demand nothing less than professional quality products. RTW is not losing popularity thanks to the excellent mods so it's not due to lack of people interested in it. In fact, there's probably more people interested in the mods than the original game by now.

My suggestion is this: you should tie this site with the academy somehow. Make it so that people can request skins/models/mods (in small scale, no "GIMME A CAVEMEN TOTAL COVERSION WITH MAMMOTHS", etc) and newbie modders can try their hands on it. It would make a good learning place instead of starting a mod team, or trying to join a mod team just to learn. Senior modders can just give tips if they're busy working on mods. Heck, maybe you can have a few senior modders be "graders" or official critics/mentors.

yeah i have a little thing on my site that says i will train you and help u to skin and maybe model. I think its a great idea to train people there and then put them to work so i can critizice them and get them good. It would help get the rtw community more modders.

Please adjust the colors of the forum - my brain is bleeding.

Other than that, I may have use for this. Thank you!

Er... I second the colours thing!

Black text on dark green....not good for actually reading...
And bright Orange....

Have you had tests for colour blindness?

As far as good colour schemes go, you either want a dark background set of colours with white text, or stick with very pale background colours for black text. The dark green hides the black text, and the shock of the orange contrast serves to further darken the appearance of the green...

Content looks promising though
