Im thinking of building a map based on the Animatrix short-The Second Renassance. Heres a link to it. The violence is kinda........graphic. (just a warning) But the trick is to not think of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frpTs...related&search=

I need some people to:
1. Discuss what units best represent the ones seen in the short.
2. Make a map based on it.
3. Possibly some mod people. We may need to remove some of the units able to be built and maybe make new models or change some existing ones.
4. We also may need some people to make singleplayer if it does become a singleplayer map.

If anyones interested please reply.

I always have a question, do you people get paid or are you just doing this for fun?

no, just press print screen, open up the program called paint, click the first tool on the left side of the screen, right click in the big blank area where your picture goes, then click paste, then save it to the file you are going to zip up to send your map in

Edit:
that sounded a bit confusing to me, all i know is that they go into C:\Program Files\THQ\Dawn Of War\WXP\Data\Scenarios\MP. if some of the files dont exist then you have to create them. WXP = winter assalt, data = the data, Scenarios = different things ingame, and MP = mulitplayer maps. (if you want a loading screen find a tuturial, but you have to make a folder called "loading" and put that in the MP folder, then just take a screenshot of your map or somthing, make it 800 by 600 pixles, (i think) save it with the same exact name as the .sbg and .tga files for your map, and put it in that file

hope i helped

hey maby u should mod the matrix game and not dawn of war i think that would work out better for u becuase i don't think the animatrix works in rts forum
