I hope there will still be open place for animator until start of next year.
Would really like to apply. But not sure if I will have time till end of this year due to work and stuff.

Half Life 1 holds some of my greatest childhood memories, and I was playing Half Life 1 Deathmatch for years with my friends as a kid.

Came back to this forum after getting HL1 Deathmatch. And was researching into HD version of it. Sadly, no :frowning: .
But seems like great Black Mesa team is working on one.

Bump. We’re still looking for a great animator!

We’re particularly interested in animators who are good with viewmodels (weapons) and character animation. We’re overhauling the weapon animations, but we want to hire someone who can animate other things too.

If you know a great animator, please send them our way, too. We would be very grateful!

Have you guy’s asked this guy? https://blackmesa.gamebanana.com/skins/126786

He makes really good animations I don’t know if he does it as a hobby or a job though. He might work for you guy’s if asked though.

Hello, I am a 3-d animator, and while I’d like to mostly work on redoing the view-models currently in the Steam version, I can also do character animation if you all need. I am very experienced in Source compiling, so I can compile anything you all need.

My Youtube where I post a lot of animation-related videos: https://www.youtube.com/user/MyZombiekillerz/videos

My Steam Workshop is filled with animations for Source games: https://steamcommunity.com/id/MzKSteam/myworkshopfiles/

I realize the game is a tad dead at the moment, but I was thinking that the animations I do could come out along with the Xen update (that might happen…?), so people would be coming back at that point. Please reply whether you think I’m capable or not.
