In this month’s edition, the team behind MWLL would like to show you some of the different models we have been working on. Below are the current assets that are being worked on before they are sent down the production pipeline to the texture artists. These are some completed high poly count game assets.

5. Meet the Devs

 

http://www.mechlivinglegends.net/images/newsl_img/September/thumbs/Slava_thumb.jpg

In this months edition we would like to introduce Stlava.

 

Hey guys, my name is Slava Markeyev aka Stlava and my official title here at MWLL is Web Developer. First and foremost I would like to say while I am not a modeler, texture artist or animator I belong to a small group of people here at MWLL that support the mod in many ways such as web development, site administration, legal advice and many other fields. I joined the team seven months ago in February when I started development on what is known as our current website. Today on a daily basis I make sure the website components are functioning and are up to date as well. Besides maintaining the back end of the website I try to find way to support the development team. For example my in latest project I am attempting to setup a distributive rendering farm so the beautiful monthly renders that you guys see don't take one machine in the upwards of five hours to complete.

Outside of MWLL, like many of the developers, I am a gamer. My first game was Counter-Strike 1.5 from there I transitioned to Battlefield 1942, Counter-Strike Source, Battlefield 2 and most recently ET:Quake Wars. For the last two years I have been apart of the gaming team named The United Force, where I competed in various leagues. I'm looking forward to play ET:QW with my team in the near future. Beyond the Internet I am a full time high school student and very soon a college applicant.

 

 


As always, we appreciate your feedback to our models, to the concept art, the work in progress, this newsletter and any other input you want to give. Should you now feel motivated to contribute to this mod, head over to our website and introduce yourself on the forums.

Best wishes,

From the team of

MechWarrior: Living Legends
