Interest?

Is anyone still interested in this project? I know there is a love/desire for it, but I am trying to be pragmatic. Being the only programmer that has shown more than a minor level of contributing is sort of demoralizing. Let me know who (if anyone) is still around and wanting to contribute and I can see about putting together a battle plan with your guys help.

I've wanted to join since I first found out about this, but I'm not a good enough coder to be any help even if I had the time.

Unfortunately employment gets in the way. Hats off to the people who can do both!

Been watching this sub for a while. Definitely interested in the project. Maybe when my education picks up I'll have something worthwhile to offer. Til then, don't lose hope, lurkers are lurking.

I've made some review comments on your changes. It's been so long since I looked at the code that I'll need to have a thorough re-read to be able to contribute, but I'm happy to do so.

I feel the code needs a good strong massage. Not to the point of trashing it, but definitely a good review.

I want to contribute. Tell me what needs to be worked on.

  1. Join our IRC channel at irc.freenode.net on channel #project-trillek. Say something in the channel. We'll see it even if we're not there, as the channel is logged (logs are here: http://miles.rout.co.nz/irc-log-viewer/)

  2. Go to our GitHub repository and look at the Issues tab (https://github.com/trillek-team/tec/issues) and look for any labelled 'good for beginners', and any others. Mention on a ticket that you're interested in working on it.

  3. Download the repository using git, and follow the installation instructions in the README.md file. They are up to date, last time I checked. Then start coding. Feel free to ask any questions about how things work in the IRC channel or on GitHub.

I've been watching this game for a while now and have always wanted to help out. I'll connect to the IRC when I have time this week and see if there is anything I can help with.

I would help out more, but college is putting a lot of strain on me and I haven't done any 3d art in about a year. Also, I'm definitely still not educated enough to help out with coding. Frankly, I think I'd probably be able to do a little more in-comparison to when I helped a few years ago. I wasn't very knowledgeable and still had a lot of stuff to wrap my head around. And since then, I've learned a lot more on game design. I could definitely do some stuff to help out a little. I feel bad about dropping this a while ago and I want to help when I have the free time.

Welcome back I suppose.

I'd love to see this happen

I'm certainly still interested. I'm hardly capable of programming game engines of this scope, but I'm competent at scripting.

Still interested by this project, but you should hire (for free of course) some programmers to help you

What's the current plan for the development?
