/me pokes hes head in and likes the topic. I always enjoyed a game with a good SP mode, in addition to on-line play. I may be able to help a bit making this happen. /me returns to vacation mode.

Cool, glad you're interested, we can certainly use your help.

ok. everyone wants their sp concept to be used, so following the 2.5.2 release we should have a contest. it will last until the 2.5.3 release. submissions require a storyline, 2 campaign map minimum and at least 1 extra content, THAT ISNT IN SVN, IT HAS TO BE THEIR OWN, as well as the submitters source code for the mod, svn code may be used as long as they do the above. the winner will have their storyline as nexuiz's storyline and be put in the credits.

Meh, I don't think a contest would get much accomplished here, since making a campaign requires focused effort by a small team of content creators, and there aren't too many of us around to form more than one team I don't think. And then you also have the risk that if you don't 'win', your content won't be used, which might not be taken by folks as a motivator.

I think it would be better to include any working campaigns in the game for a trial run in a future stable release of Nexuiz (2.5.3 you mentioned), so that people can get a taste for them to decide which they like better. Kind of like "havoc mode" in 2.5.

And that's assuming there are multiple ideas that people pursue. If we get to that point (so far only a few people have posted ideas, most not yet followed up on) then the best scenario is for the content creators who will be 'making it happen' to come to a consensus on what all they want in a campaign and then work together to create a single official Nexuiz campaign.

Also note that because we are aiming for Official Nexuiz inclusion, we cannot use any content that is not GPL'ed or Public Domain. So we need to rely almost exclusively on our own craft.

the idea was to use nexuiz's current content combined with our own content.

What is intended, the final campaign is the user created concept most agreed apon.

There's anyone who can sketch?Sketches for maps and player models would be VERY useful !

[Mizu Kitsune]

Maybe our eyes would be happy to see your talent! Anyway, a good hand could help me (like other modellers) to follow proportions or detail like MASTERS teach :http://www.iddevnet.com/quake4/ArtReference_CreatingModels

That is not an aim that will be fulfilled. I have heard from certain sources that they (certain devs, not saying all of them) do not want single player campaign with official Nexuiz. If you're aiming for anything, aim for a separate pack people can download, and not being released with Nexuiz. But still keep it GPL, though, if it is a separate pack maybe CC would be just fine. I wouldn't mind, in fact, I would even like that.

And actually, before even deciding (or assuming as I believe many people do) that if this is made it will be included with Nexuiz, why not ask the devs before doing anything. It's rather stupid to assume stuff like this.
