Hi @ all,
at first I'm from Germany and Im afraid my English is not so very good, but I hope you can understand me

Im from a modding-team for BfME II which is called "The 3rd Age" (the name has nothing to do with this site ), but we still need some good modders especially for skinning and modelling.
Our mod will be about the 3rd age (as the name says ), and it will show the world of Tolkien as he thouhgt about it, because EA is produced crap (Cartoon-Goblin-Castle ) . So you also should have seen at least the films or better: read the books.
The problem might be that the whole team is from Germany, but I think everyone of us can speak English. If you are interested and if you want some more information what the mod is about, don't be shy and send me an E-mail or a PM. We really need you and I'm sure it will be a great mod !!!

There is a mod called Visions who is doing exactly the same..

[Der Alte]

Are you sure ? How do you know ?
Well, here you've a link for our current homepage:

[Mathijs]

I know because I am the leader of that mod

Check our hosted forum, it's under the name Matias.

[|MeMw|KingDuku]

Imo this sounds nothing like visions.

[Mathijs]

and it will show the world of Tolkien as he thouhgt about it, because EA is produced crap

That is exactly what we want to do as well. Hence the name Visions, as in what Tolkien envisioned. Maybe you should actually visit the forum.

But i dont think u both add the same things pluss different teams ideas. And well different mods.
I say go ahead withit and why not post the renders of ur site here?

[Mathijs]

I don't believe I told them to stop the mod, just mentioning something.

[Der Alte]

No one else who wants to join the mod team ???

Its REALLY, REALLY hard to get people to join if you dont have any work Presented. Thats the dumb thing about recruting, if you are a coder who wants to start a mod, you have to already have friends who are modelers and skinners; else noone will join. People want to see some work done (Most of the time they want to see renders of your completed models) so the mod actually has a footing.

All true, but I believe they had some screenshots of models on their site, which is now under construction.
Guess everyone is busy doing some project or just not interested in joining.
And it's true that, compared to the mod from Matias, there are things done different in this mod, but the general goal is the same. Those who saw that as a good theme likely have joined Matias, because he started (or at least was know here) before Der Alte came with his request for help.

I was thinking of statring a mod with the same name once ,, but it were supposed to be like the heroes :
Hostile , Ched and all the other moderators+

[Cobra]

ha, that'd be stupidly awesome

[Joe]

remove the awesome and ly and there you have what it would be

[Ocard Riddle]

If you ever want another coder, I'm here

[Cobra]

lol i might model myself if u do bother to do it

[LadyRhiea]

BTW I think this mod would have cool unit names like..
Goblin King...
GOBLIN KAISER!
HAIL Deut-MORIA!

[Cobra]

hehe or "Master Hostile", "Captain Ched" and 'Commander Kelso".

Hostile could be a jedi, ched some punk guy with a shotgun and kelso a ninja
