Two more people interested in helping start a planet partnership are needed. Any knowledge of CryEngine 2 or 3, 3Ds Max, Maya, Mudbox (3D sculpting), Photoshop would be great. If interested PM me for more info or go to our mini forum here where you can sign up: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/boards/project-planet-partner.215/
At risk of being slow on the uptake, you mean you can't see the link? Anyway, you should still be able to see the PPP forum at the bottom of the forums list and apply that way.
Nope, 3D skills is a bonus but by no means a must - the most important thing is a genuine interest in trying to get a new PP-ship off the ground. Thanks for showing an interest.
Hmm I have the intrest and some very minor skills in Cry engine 3.. I will play with it some more and let you know this weekend.
I get an error message when clicking on the link. " EntropiaPlanets.com - Entropia Universe forum, wiki, media, tools - Error You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action."
If you've got ce3 skills at any level that would be great. ATM it's holosquad and myself holding the fort and we've come up with a good general idea of what we want to go with...
2 people.... Not to be a nay sayer but did you see what happened to planet post moderna? they did a kickstart and failed to even see their target let alone reach it. Given we have planets like Next Island going down the pan and even the ones that bought calypso I feel the future isn't bright for you... Just saying.. Wistrel
Thier is a reason NI is slowly hitting the pan AKA david Post. Post Moderna with kickstarter Maybe the bidders never had faith or did not understand how the game works or mindark if he had a video about himself and the project with some thing to backup his claim with, maybe things could have been different. 2 - 4 people it would be a hell of a lot of workload but also good for economy (cuts) Calypso was never bought we bought calypso with 6 mill of cld's 50% thats how kim got his money also kim used to work for MA. Some of the money will be used for different things like marketing ect, Unless your talking about SEE
NI is one of five planets now and it's still not certain that David Post can't recover the situation. The other new PP'ships seem to be doing well, Arkadia and RT for instance, so this is why I feel that another one could also work if it's well thought out...
That's because the link you posted is to the private forum :) People can apply to join the user group here: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/account/join-user-groups
Ah, OK - my fault ;) Thanks for clearing that up :) In that case, if anyone's really interested please go here http://www.entropiaplanets.com/account/join-user-groups to sign up.
For the sake of keeping the thread clean, I split off the off-topic discussion to a thread of its own: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/threads/are-planet-partners-leeching-from-calypso.8142/
I would need to look into this post moderna planet a bit, however I have seen some great crowdfunding projects fail due to lack of proper campaign planning, belief that if you set it they will come, not enough leverage of social media traffic, lack of communication with potential funders, etc. Unless a crowdfunding project gets lucky (seen that a few times) it takes tons of work to succeed. the Rap group "Public Enemy" thought they could succeed with their name alone and failed not once by twice before they got smart and actually worked out a plan that could succeed and raised $75,000. Far short of the original $250,000 they shot for the 1st time. That was a sad day for me as they offered revenue share that 1st time and so I jumped in to help with funding. I ended up doing research for several potential funders since Public Enemy weren't communicating and due to the lack of what I found dropped my funding offer 6 months. All this is to say you can have a project better then everyone else's and still fail with crowdfunding by not putting the time and energy to learn how crowdfunding differs from most everything else.
Thanks for the info there. I wouldn't rely on crowdfunding alone, kickstarter for instance seems to give very short bidding times imho...
When SAB (the 1st popular crowdfunding site for musicians) started in 2006 there was no time limit for projects. However by the time kickstarter, pledgemusic, and tons of other companies started it was learned the importance of having a time limit. One way to handle a percieved too short time limit is to break the project of into smaller pieces. A musician in Aussie land (Aly Cook) did this by breaking her project up into Album recording, album marketing, tour expenses for album, I think there was 1 more though can't remember for sure. Anyways all except the album marketing were completed within a few short months. She also used different companies for each one based on that companies average user base interest (just 1 example of putting time and energy into a project 1st). OK time for me to unsubscribe to this thread would hate to give away any secrets of crowdfunding.
