anywhere from 10-50 dollars, depending on how good it is

Post by: [UK] Captain McMarcus on July 14, 2012, 07:13:29 PM: Ahh sorry, that's a lot lower to what I thought it would have been. Probably would have been nice working with you and we could have had an awesome loading screen and everything.

lol yeah.

Also, is it possible to make the loading screen play a video or a GIF?

Post by: smt on July 14, 2012, 08:13:38 PM: As far as I know the loading screen is pulled from a URL, but again as far as I am aware moving shit (videos/gifs) don't play while your loading, only when downloading files

Post by: [UK] Captain McMarcus on July 14, 2012, 08:38:33 PM: Depends how long you are on the loading screen for, but you are right there, as soon as the client is properly connecting up the loading screen will become entirely static causing any video / animations to stop.

Music tracks will probably still play however, also how much work is it going to be on this HUD?
as if it isn't an awful lot as you have said then I might consider working this one out for you. (yes i am being serious)

Also if you don't know who I am; I pretty much made most of the HUD for OCRP, including loading screen etc., done a tonne of other stuff as well too much to list really. Slowly in development website gives rough idea of what i'm capable of with nothing really listed and not a lot of content, it will be finished one day: http://marcusnichols.com/dev

You can also have fun on a crappy flash game I made a while back as well: http://marcusnichols.com/dev/game.html

Title: Re: Looking for a graphics artist for a HUD/GUI, paying good
Post by: [UK] Captain McMarcus on July 14, 2012, 08:49:59 PM: Honestly, I put a tonne of ideas in for OCRP but they never followed up with any of it so I just done the icons they wanted. Hence why it turned into a clusterfuck. I was surprised to see how it turned out in the end but either way we pissed a lot of people off with the full orange colour scheme, haha xD

One of my ideas I suggested was to keep everything under a menu called up by a single key command, I have the prototype version somewhere but I might have deleted the entire OC folder off my old computer but it did turn into a clusterfuck, i didn't have much control over any of it. Just made the icons I was asked for as I mentioned earlier.

Post by: alaskan thunderfuck on July 14, 2012, 10:21:36 PM: This isn't for OCRP2 and we don't really need a loading screen(though if you want to make one for OCRP2 pm me and i'll pay for that cause that would be really nice)

It's a no brainer that this is for some unnannounced project that you want this done for. I would have PM'ed this to you but it won't let me for some reason. I probably won't do the HUD / GUI but I can do you loading screens if your after them, I charge £30 per page. Haven't got any examples on me at the moment but I assume you know what the quality of it will be like.

Everything there was made from scratch by me.

EDIT: Also, here is a sample HUD I've made before.

Sorry for the large amounts of blank space(I can fix it, too, but I never used that HUD.)
