I got into SoaSE a good while ago, almost four years. After a few enjoyable months of playthroughs, I wanted more, and delved into the modding community. Back then, SotP had only one model, and only hopes and dreams of the future.
I had fallen in and out of Sins since then. I sometimes worked on modding myself, though I lacked any and all direction, and always watched SotP to see where it might go.

Then, I fell out for a long time.

Reading sci-fi had emblazoned a need to play again, and turning a hopeful eye back to ModDB, I was shocked to see a Beta release!

I want to help. In any way I can. Even if it means I have to sit in front of the computer for hours on end as I labor against the Flood, I'll do my part. ;)

Those were the days. Good to see you back with us again.

Any specific skills?

Does free time count as a skill? xD
No, not really... I only got into modifying the files already in the game, and even that was a while ago. Everything I did was technical, the easy stuff. Couldn't get into the graphical element.

Welcome!
Your story sounds quite similar to mine, but the graphical thing is different.

Your story sounded very similar to how a lot of us started. If you want to take it to the next level just toy with things here and there, see what does what, what causes crashes, etc.

Don't you try and make your self seem more sophisticated than me. How dare you compare me to everyone else that has a similar story and give him suggestions. I challenge you to a duel of who can't reply back to this comment.

Don't worry people, I'm sure Unikraken is investing your souls in some good soul stock. If you're lucky you might gain interest on your soul over time and end up having 2 souls in the soul bank instead of one.

Unless the company takes a plunge and you end up with no soul... that would really ruin your day...

So...if you'd like to contribute and you don't have any artistic or technical skills the best thing you can do for us is test the mod and report back with bugs/errors and imbalances. We have a section called "Suggestions and Feedback" and we'd love your input there.
