We're busy getting the team back together (a few have gone awol) and balancing the Soviets more. The Ostheer is underway, but we have nothing ingame right now, just models and idea's, although these are not final. It never is
just wondering, but can anyone tell me how to make a mod/video game like company of Heroes? I like the format of the game, I just want a modern combat version of the game, and the sides would be the US, Russia, Germany, and possibly Iran.
There's already a Modern Combat mod in the works, Its between the US and China though -

As mods go, you will need some knowledge of how the game works yourself before you start. Unless you want to do everything yourself, you'll need to get a team together... this usually includes -
- A lead designer who isn't a total retard/dickhead
- Coders and Programmers with intimate knowledge of the game
- Artists, Modellers, UVW mappers, Skinners, Animators and general people who know how to get animated/skinned models in game. If you get a person who can do all this (very very rare) you're pretty much in business.
- Mappers, preferably good ones
- Sound Technicians
- Translators
- Historians and Ideas people if needed
- Balance testers
- Webmaster if you want a website
I think that's it. Obviously, its helpful to have more than 1 of each of these people, but not too many or else its becomes very hard to organise effectively.
But yeah... seriously off topic.
