Phoronix article: Open Source artwork is aweful

Post by DukeForever »

I was just reading this article:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=n ... px=MTExODg

And I was wondering whether we could contact Phoronix to let them know about the new (and totally cool) artwork that is being created for Unvanquished. Phoronix is a very popular site and they often make articles about open source games so it would be really nice if they have Unvanquished under their radar.

What do you think?

Of course we can! Poke Kharnov, he is the one who speaks on public :)

Yes, Unvanquished is quite relevant to this.

I've been holding off on the Phoronix posting until we get some more flashy models in-game, like the acid tube and human male that we have. After that, I think we'll be ready. A month or two?

Well it seems that someone already tipped them off (wasn't me BTW):

Oops, he posted gavlig's Imrod as a piece of art for Unvanquished.
I'm pretty sure it's meant for some other game.

It wasn't meant for anything. I just practiced on it(my first animation :))
But you know, you may be right, i gave that animation to PixelLight engine developers for their demo. So, technically, it's meant for the PL demo(not intentionally at first though) :)
