Hello,

I am part of the mod team behind the mod Heroes of the West for Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm. A tactical realism first person shooter set in WW2 on the Unreal 3 engine.

We need 3D animators who can either do First person weapon animations or 3rd person animations which involves the 3rd person player model using the weapon. The ability to modify existing animations would help a lot as most of the animations, especially the 3rd person animations would only involve a slight alteration. Animations would include running, reloading, firing and ammo checks. Our team has basic Animators with good knowledge of the UE3 engine and how the game works however we don't have the animating skills for good weapon animations.

No knowledge of the UE3 engine is required and you don't even need to own the vanilla game. Though obviously a plus. You just have to be able to export your animations as an .FBX file, most software can do this. I know Blender, 3DS Max and Maya can.

Priority would be first person animations of our British Bren gun and Sten gun. Other guns we have ready for animation are the Browning Hi power pistol, STG44 and G43. As well as a couple of secret stuff we don't want to announce just yet. There are also guns being made but aren't ready for animations such as the M3 Grease gun, Browning 50.cal and Bazooka. Along with even more weapons we haven't even started making.

You can do one gun or keep animating everything we throw at you. You choose what you want to do. We think our mod is very promising and have full backing from the developers of the original game. This mod will be getting off the workshop and going official on steam very soon and I mean "Very" soon. The reason we want to get the Bren and Sten done as fast as possible is as soon as those 2 weapons are done we can push out the British faction as they are the only things holding it back. We got maps, uniforms and even voices sorted for them along with a couple of weapons.

Once part of the team you will be referred to the head of the project and given everything from the game you need to get animating. I will remain your point of contact if you need anything else as that's what I do.
