Saying hello

[pr0fez]

Hi there. I just discovered there’s an active, serious modding community to one of my all-time favourite games, EoC! I just tried to play X3 and got so dissapointed I decided to play through EoC again instead, but realised there has to be some old mods lying around, and lo and behold, several still active communities! And this one seems really serious about the (Torn Stars) project.

I would like to get into modding EoC, in particular I have some ideas how to implement large-scale meta game models for relations and interactions between actors like factions, communities or raiding parties.

I got my M.Sc in CS with International Relations as a minor with a good mind to get into computer game development. I’m not a graphics guy, though, my speciality is language and tool design; compilers, debuggers, interpreters, IDEs and so on. My other main interest in the computer realm is artificial intelligence, particularily global workspace theory and conscious code. Scripting, mapping, level-design and development of tools for these are what I think I can contribute through. And some political theory and/or economic modelling if there’s an interest.

Thanks for having this community around, everyone! 😀
