Dev version of RHS Status Quo
See https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/239698-rhs-status-quo/ for more details
Description
Dev version of RHS Status Quo mod. This build might not be up to date and is used to test features in MP before update of main mod.
Proceed with caution, build might be unstable and it might contain severe bugs.
RHS: Status Quo remains true to its roots in the contemporary sphere of things: 2000 - present with the main core around 2017 with US and RF taking center stage. We do intend to put some focus on a story this time around. Also stay tuned for information on a brand new terrain in development! As of now we have developed a small priority list for what we call Phase 1 which should bring the mod to 1.0 status hopefully sometime.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Now the recruitment bit
To make this happen we certainly need more new talent! Please consider dropping us a line if you would like to try out for the team in the following capacities if your profile matches:
· Asset creators: you are detail driven, accuracy matters to you, you are strong in HP/LP baking workflows for current generation PBR engines, you are familiar with Substance Painter.
-> Hard surface: Weapons, objects, architecture, attachments etc.
-> Uniforms, gear -> Marvelous Designer knowledge is a big plus.
· Texture artists: you are detail driven, accuracy matters to you, perhaps you do not model yourself but are able to turn HP/LP models of others into stunning artwork in Substance Painter.
· Animators : you are familiar with skinning and animations in any tool that is able to export to Enfusion (max, blender, maya etc.). This involves both hardsurface (weapons/vehicles) animation as well as characters.
· Producers: help our team inject the assets into the game, configure the models, produce copy, zero the sights etc. This helps us enourmosly! Especially if you are a bit familiar already with Enfusion Workbench.
