Hi fellow Moders/Gamers.

Vector8Games is looking for a character modeler that can start as soon as possible.
Already we have a level designer, two concept artists and a programmer.
-
Our mod (A horror/survival/Psychological/Single player/ First person shooter).
It takes place in our local members town. The game is a zombie shooter with a story and many different endings.
Since its a fps we want the player to feel encased in the character. To do that we need to be able to see your chest,legs,shoulders all of what you can see of your own body when you look around. Another key feature that adds to the "encased" feeling is no changing cameras and first person rag-doll.
A good way to show off first person rag-doll is the "Skulk" (Moddb.com) when the "Skulk" shunts you it sends you rag-dolling to the ground.

The 3D modeler won't be waiting for something to do, we have a couple right off the bat characters (Zombies) that can be done. Concepts and everything; a good thing about our Zombie Concept artist is that he's fast so drawing the same zombie from a different angle will be a piece of cake.

Much like every zombie game or even most action games we have so called ranks or levels of zombies.
Our ranks are :
Shambler = Standard zombie.
Squealer = Vocal powered zombie.
Thrasher = Large muscle arm.
Skulk = Stalking zombie.
Berserker = Tank zombie.
Each and every different zombie rank looks and acts differently. Instead of the normal blood decaled human we have taken a more drastic, mutated look on the zombies and what the virus might do to them and their DNA.

Our game tries to use new ideas that takes away from the standard zombie based game; for one, our game is non-linear, so it plays like Dead Rising, or GTA in the sense that you can choose to start missions or not. Zombie based games tend to take place in post-apocalyptic times, our game puts you in a pre-apocalyptic setting, day one if you will; However, the military does not want the rest of the world knowing of its happening, so they quarantine the town, no-one in, no-one out. As the game progresses, the world becomes more and more aware of the situation, thus shown to the player on news stations and the like.
Mainly, we want to create a zombie based game, that does not feel like a traditional zombie game, a new take on survival-horror.
