How to get involved in making KotB

So you want to help with Keep on the Borderlands, and all the glory, fame and satisfaction that comes with it? Here's how:

First, download the starter pack here: ----> [link removed - starter pack no longer available]

Install it as a module in ToEEFE. Run it. Run around on it. Admire the work of the great modders u will be joining

Then ask urself, "what do I want to do?"

You might feel impelled to add some characters, or some plots. You might want a drunk to wander through the bar, or stage a robbery in the bank, or recreate something from a pnp adventure of KotB from many years back, or just provide some in depth dialogue for a character or two so they have something more interest to say than "hi my name is Bob, wanna do a quest for me?" Or, you might have no interest in the characters, but might want to get the fireplaces showing fires, or the sounds of the footsteps to correspond with the different sorts of ground, or make it look like the players are running behind the buildings where appropriate (all things that can be done very easily with Agetians ToEEWB tool and other tools). You might want to add some artwork or modify the monsters. Or you might want to compose some music!

Whatever you decide you want to do, email me at

admin@keepontheborderlands.org

we can discuss what you want to do, and i will send you the latest updates (the mod has come a LONG way since that first starter pack!) Otherwise, the current state of the mod will be kept for the modders themselves, for the obvious reasons of not spoiling it for those waiting to play.

 

Open Invitation

Just another call for help here: things are progressing nicely but a few more hands would certainly help.

Also, I have sent out the invites for the private forum to all who were interested, so if I missed anyone who has previously expressed interest, please say so now: i do need reminding of things as anyone here who has dealt with me knows. I am certainly not trying to keep anyone out, so poke me as necessary oke:

Thanks WizGeorge

 

Re: Open Invitation

After assembling a Hoplite with some of Cujo's gear and some pre-existing stuff, I gotta admit, I am looking forward to playing a samurai Hey, I may even start shopping with Ah Fong! That'd be a novelty.

As much as I appreciate the offer, there is nothing much needs doing in KotB atm, because on the design front Cuchulainn has kept us 2 steps ahead of what is needed. But check your PMs and we can discuss this further.

 

@ daadamo: Did you draw your avatar? I'm pretty sure any orc portraits will be welcomed in this module
