Open Machines?

Judas

It's the original sound used in the game, haha ;)

But yes, I've uploaded them all to the "Downloads" category. It's only 40mb or something.

You want me to check if I can convert it to Wings3D? (I'm not sure how much cross-compatibility there is between 3D models filetypes)

Exactly.

I think Wings3D should be able to access them as blender can.

@Judas It's more that I need to get used to blender and get off my lazy Wings3D-using butt. There isn't really a problem with file compatibility as much as software capability.

It's good to know the site can just host the downloads under a subdomain. I'll see if I can get something done with these.

Aquarillis

Has anyone tried to track down ANYONE that has developed the game using LinkedIn or other means? Might be able to get some sweet development stuff that way.

bilal

@Aquarillis
Yeah, I mean I found the designer on linkedin here.

But we were mainly looking at people who dealt with the IP, like people involved in the acclaim auction etc.

@Pisarz Wow an actual Machines 3D designer? :o

bilal

@Byrgius
He only did animation. We knew about him for a while though; even on the old forums.

Byrgius

@bilal Would be amazing to have him on board.

bilal

@Byrgius
Haha, I'm sure he's busy with contracts in the professional industry or something else.

AvionAris

I guess we need another animator, then. Unless our Machines animator somehow gets out of the "busy" status...

But who could animate things for us?
I really want to see a Gorilla smashing things with its giant arms!

@Encrypted
Me until someone better wants to. :p

Byrgius

@bilal Yeah I know it's a tough call
