ANTEVERSE

Why do you thank him when you refer to one of my posts? And why do you call him "Marc"? His name is "Mark".
I have a vague suspicion: you are one of this flippant man of action. Not the best letter of introduction to ask for help.

Oh btw ... regarding McCormick ...

I can provide you with a very well done non-textured (and optimized!) 3d-model of Mark McCormick McCormick in every pose within a few days if you really want it and McCormick agrees. Something like this (my avatar from ESO):

Costs would be something around US$ 300. Probably you can share expenses with McCormick because I would print him a RL-statue of the model for his desktop in BronzeFill-material for material costs only ;-)

 

Fine! Good luck than, Hulyss!

But what is a "Bushido"?

 

MA outsourced "Project Entropia" ? You say a Canadian Studio made "Project Entropia" ? What ? :O

interesting pdf ... it's always funny to read such old things, especially those comments on page 2

i would be very very ashamed 13 years later if i were in charge

 

Alchemic dream was/is indeed a reallife company "for managing MMOS" and
is/was a society inside of Entropia that tried to do some "business" with MindArk. I know some ex-members.

Many tried and failed with this.
Alchemic Dream was "just players" trying to jump on our Titanic. ;p

Alchemic Dreams CEO still is Aurelien Merville :

He never replied to questions on Google+ though.
Hes "inactive" on facebook since 1.5 years.

I tried to contact him, because I also found out that they wanted to start "some business"
with MindArk back then. But that was many, many years ago.

SEE it as "FreeMyVunk" or the "Educational Planets". It never happened.
If there ever had been contracts signed to "do some work for MA" is unknown.

But afaik Alchemic Dream did NOT develop or do anything for "Project Entropia".
The only thing that would come into mind would be their "audio production".
Which could explain why "PE" started with so many "standard" sounds that are widley known in the movie and music industry.

But reading your "MA didnt understand Gamebryo" just sounds like todays "MA didnt understand Cryengine" x'D
That would be indeed somethign to dig further into...

Alas Google already removed results regarding "Aurelien Merville & Project Entropia".
I remember I found an old site via waybackmachine, many, many years ago, where their "idea" got presented...more or less.
But I didnt feel digging any deeper as I never got a reply by him anyway.

I could ask some ex soc members, if they still log in that is...you have my attention. ^^

 

don't get me wrong, but who's 'mindark'? ...considering a decade or nearly two

 

Thanks for sharing man !
If thats true....it would mean that even in the year 1999 MindArk was already outsourcing Project Entropia development.
This time, to the NetImmerse (GameBryo) guys.

Im a bit speechless :'D

Because MindArk was enlisted as developer, as partner on the their site, actually USING NetImmerse (GameBryo) for Project Entropia.
I nowhere, never ever heard that Gamebryo itself was working for MindArk.

This is either a translation mistake or...it would mean "hell on earth" :O

 

knowing mindark it's probably no mistake but no error either and in any case they're sorry for the inconvenience caused...
