I think it will be hard for us to police or in any way regulate payment stuff, so it's a lot better if people are mentally prepared to go truly Open Source, that is, free use for all. Obviously, if you're using a large amount of somebody's work, we should strongly encourage fairly compensating them if money is involved, and I think 99% of people will agree with that and act accordingly

Quote from Puddy

As for now, before any "system" is in place, I encourage those who are sitting on assets to simply put a link to a zip or similar and briefly describe what kind of assets the zip contains. It might be a while until the centralised infrastructure is in place and this is a good half-measure. Or in some cases, like the Cache assets for example, it can be enough to simply write that the assets are available to use and people can nab them from the bsp.

Agreed!

If you guys want to start uploading stuff, and linking the .zips here, go for it.

Can we get a recap from Tophat on his plans for this system? I'm leaving a lot of this up to you guys to work out the specifics, but I'd like to check in on our progress

Quote from Campaignjunkie

hey, if anyone is interested in this, let me know, I can try to put in a word for you... this is probably good more for people on the Producer / Consultant / PR sides of things... keep in mind it's part-time so you probably can't buy a house with this, but it might be a good step to help you shift careers or move to NYC or whatever

New York doesn't sound half bad.

Just finished True Detective.

MOST implausible show ever. Like nothing about it was plausible. But it was amazing.

Yeah I agree that looks really cool, also want to see it in-game before I can comment further.

I would say I'm not impressed at all, but the art for this game is so cool that I might dig having that thing around even as useless as it all is, it'd be very cool to look at most likely

Quote from Vilham

Working with the fuckers you have to work with.

Seriously this good social communication with other developers is probably one of the most important aspects of this job. If you can't do that, you are useless.

Not that I'm the expert

oh, rick_d, you rapscalion *studio audience laughs*

This is a book I'll be reading. Can't wait.

The trailer is awesome. Last gen as fuck, but awesome.

Just so I'm clear on the rationale for not including the game, is it because they presume people will get it digitally?

This already sounded like the kind of game that not everyone was going to love, since it's trying to do something a bit different and ambitious. Even if they did a perfect job going that route, there were going to be some detractors

Quote from TopHATTwaffle

GitHub repos, or a SVN could work for this system... I also have a buttload of hosting where I can store all of this content if needed. Google Drive/Dropbox would work, but this would have to be "owned" by someone or a few people. We don't need dicks everywhere now...

Also, here are my contributions to this pack.

I'll be in touch about this. For now just prepare your files, everybody, in convenient .rar, .zip, etc format for us.

Quote from (HP)

Facebizzle has just announced dat itz buyin Oculus Rift fo' $2 billion. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Seriously."Mobile is tha platform of todizzle, n' now we also gettin locked n loaded fo' tha platformz of tomorrow," Facebizzle smoker n' CEO Mark Zuckerberg say. "Oculus has tha chizzle ta create da most thugged-out hood platform ever, n' chizzle tha way we work, play n' rap."

Oculus is equally chuffed. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! "We is buckwild ta work wit Mark n' tha Facebizzle crew ta serve up tha straight-up dopest virtual realitizzle platform up in tha ghetto," Brendan Iribe, co-smoker n' CEO of Oculus VR say up in a PR release. "We believe virtual realitizzle is ghon be heavily defined by hood experiences dat connect playas up in magical, freshly smoked up ways. Well shiiiit, it aint nuthin but a transformatizzle n' disruptizzle technology, dat enablez tha ghetto ta experience tha impossible, n' itz only just tha beginning."

Quote from AlexM

Sounds awesome!

How would it be handled? One large file? Some sort of searchable database? I'd be willing to help out if that's at all needed.

Not sure, what would people prefer? Seems like a .rar for each author would be best

Quote from e-freak

could be engine agnostic and people can also post requests? would be a sweet system anyway.

engine agnostic might be kind of complicating things imo. keeping it source specific might be simpoler. but i dunno what do other people think?

Hey guys

This is an open invitation of all artists making models and textures for Source levels, to pile our content together into one big collection for our fellow artists, an Open-Sourcing of all Source related content for free use.

Any takers? I'll be happy to organize everything into one place, or maybe Thrik and the crew can help there also?

W00t, in Hurg we trust.

Shawn
