Job Title - Lead Animator
Description
Age of Chivalry is looking for a animator to continue the work on our project. Right now pretty much all of our animations are considered placeholders for future work from a more professional animator, perhaps you? If you think that you would enjoy doing this for a long time and that you have a love for medieval themed stuff, please dont hesitate to send us a letter.
Age of Chivalry is using Valve's Source engine. Our models are rigged using bipeds and a few helpers. We mainly animate using keyframe animations in 3D Studio Max, current version Max 8. You will be working with ready models and help with the scripts from the team members who has already been doing this for some time now. If you have any previous experience with .qc files its gonna help but its also something you can learn over time.
Requirements:
■ Dedication over a long time, AoC is a work continued and will be kept worked on for a long time until the product is at a state where we can start working on a sequel.
■ You need to be familiar with bipeds and keyframe animations.
■ 3D Studio Max 8 or later is a must. There is a possibility to convert the models to Maya, but if that is to be done the work must be done by you.
■ Understanding of gameplay and the ability to come up with animation designs by your self.
■ Preferably some knowledge about Valve's Source engine. But not needed.
■ Need to own a Valve game that comes with Source SDK Base (Half-Life2, HalfLife Deathmatch Source, CounterStrike Source or Day of Defeat Source)
