Re: SEIV E-NewsPaper??
Gentlemen,
I would be willing to edit, and possibly contribute an article or two when I have something worthy of contribution.
I have an extensive background in this area.
Cheers!
Trajan

Re: SEIV E-NewsPaper??
you could also have a newbie section for tips, FAQ's for newbies, a few with each subscription, a Modder section, where modders could explain (in every day language) on how to mod step by step, articles, questions to the editor, and even periodic articles by Richard, Aaron and Tim, list could go on.
Like the idea, all for it.. just add my email listed in my profile to send me copies.., I will also contribute if/when i can or if you need some help that an comp illiterate could do.
Hmmmm a comic section with graphics, in regards to the cantina and the aahhem antics of those who frequent it???? (just an idea)
just some ideas mac

Re: SEIV E-NewsPaper??
I'll contribute if you let me be the mod reviewer.
People send me copies of their mods with a short description or tag line, or tell me where I can find them...website, forum etc.
Play a short game, go over the data files, and write up what I think. Rate them possibly.
Will help people out there who want a source to tell them what mod does what and which ones kick major arse, which ones advanced the game, which ones are fun, which ones go with AI, etc.
I'd like doing that.

That IMHO is a good idea for the paper. It'd help alot of newbies too with what mods to use and what ones arn't that great. I'd love to see that section. I'm trying to come up with ideas for the paper too but I can't think of any. I'll let you all know if I come up with something.

Re: SEIV E-NewsPaper??
I would set up standards for rating.
And have a few people rate them
Pehaps on
Complexity.
Completness
etc...
We don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

Re: SEIV E-NewsPaper??
Yes, a system, but since mods differ in outlook (AI, graphics, tech, components, overhaul) it's difficult to create one set of criteria.
