I wouldn't have thought so, but If we had more active skinners on the team (nudge nudge), we'd be making quicker progress.

There was me thinking skinning was the least of our concerns...but then again as I'm not involved in Ostheer....so, I'm just 'guessing'.
And of course we recently hired some new talent for that if I'm not mistaken which no doubt will fill any perceived gap in skinning  ;D

 What tools are needed for COH skinning?
 You need skinners, not modelers?
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

CoH skinning requires Photoshop, Gimp , Paint.net , anything that can open .DDS files I think.

The key/core for moving Ostheer forwards is 'The Animator' and we haven't had one available, since about December 09'.
If we can't incorporate models in the game then we can't make the faction.

As such, put bluntly, we've been waiting/depending on what people produce externally to incorporate them in EF.
You could call it 'outsourcing', but we have no control over what is being built/animated.

Skinning is the last concern with regards to Ostheer.

Put an announcement on the front page maybe?
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

It's already there, at the right of the first post, Join us. Perhaps it's a good idea to be more especific. I hope that works, I'll talk with Dragon.

How can you ask, when there is no animator to answer  ;)
I believe it's the hardest job after coding.
