Introducing "ECLIPSE" a Crysis full conversion mod.

[darkmatter]

Hello everyone,
I'm Ron Richards, the art director for Eclipse. We are a total conversion mod for crysis. This is a non-pay project but all 20 members of the team are here for the exposure of getting all our talents in front of the big game developers and even investors to perhaps become a paying game studio down the road. At least of all to land some jobs out of all this. We are looking for very good sci-fi concept artists and modelers.

Discription:
ECLIPSE is a fast paced First Person Shooter with Multi-player and Single Player modes. Anarchy reigns throughout the universe and you are a laboratory bred human with super DNA who is the commander of a future elite fighting force known as "ECLIPSE." ECLIPSE was assembled by an alliance of alien worlds. You and your team are separated, trapped and captured after a large battle on a distant world. Your team was taken to different parts of the universe for detainment, then execution. Escape and fight through many worlds and battles to assemble your team again. Then battle your way back to glory.

ECLIPSE is a real-time action strategy game for the PC that allows the player to navigate through many worlds. Set in 2996 between the UWA "United Worlds Alliance" formed by the leaders of advanced alien races after several attack attempts by a greed and war driven group of worlds.


Here are some things in the works:

I thought i would give you guys a listen at 6 songs from the Eclipse Sound Track By Mike Jennings, our music composer. We are starting to look for Coders and Sound FX people along with adding environment Concept Artists.

Here are the 6 songs via our forums ......

wow, this looks like a very promising project. does the head of the first guy resemble the players character? that would be awesome, to be the ugly guy

You can play as him in multiplayer mode.

The head of the beastie reminds me of the Locust from Gears of War. A lot.

Very nice work on your site Tovette are you or do you happen to know of any environment artists that might be interested in joinin in. I have a team of real good modelers and mappers but not enough concepters to keep up at the moment. Great team here 1/2 my guys presently work for a game studio or VFX studio. Mostly the present art needed would be inner building, hallways, weapon labs, bio labs, landing pad / docking areas etc.

mmh...i'm working in the gaming genre too, but we ain't doing realtime 3d games. in case you need another 3d artist, no matter what needs to be done, gimme a PM and I'll see, if i have time for the project.

Thanks for the kudos, Darkness. Yes, I know a lot of concept artists, but they are all industry pros and almost always busy. The odds of them lending a hand for free are next to nill.

Yeah i hear ya on the busy and the free part. I have 6 concept artist right now and growing, im looking really for more environment concepters. One of my 2d people is a practiceing environment artist, the rest are mainly character / creature. I have industry pro's here for 2d and 3d now and for music design. They presently work in the film or gaming industry. They work on my project because they dont get to work on this style art at their jobs, and the non pro's are here of course for the exposure, PC Gamer magazine is not far out, and the variouse other outlets we will be promoting this with. A great portfolio builder
