A call to arms
Calling the Elite Community.
I need your help. The Elite RPG needs your help. We are faced with a challenge the likes of which we have not seen since we were exposed to the sight of Psykokow in his Elite onesie.
Worry not, the writing is progressing well, although the race to the end of the month is more fraught than planned, and the end of the month target is achievable as long as the tinkering gnomes of doubt stop making me change things that don't need changing.
No, my need is not with the writing. My need is with the imagery. With the writing taking up so much time and the demons of RealLife taking up the rest, I have not had much chance to play the alpha and will likely not see much of the beta. The other problem is that my poor little laptop just hasn't got the grapefruits to handle Elite: Dangerous in all its 3D-tastic glory. Thus I cannot get screenshots of any resolution good enough to use as source images for the book.
Which is where I need to ask YOU, the fantastic, brilliant and talented Elite community, for a helping hand.
I need screenshots. I need screenshots of ships, stations (inside and outside) planets and whatever else you can find that would be interesting. The main requirement is SHIPS though.
If you can provide me with some decent screenshots, and I use them in the book then I will be eternally grateful. I'll also credit your screenshot-taking fantasticness in the book's acknowledgements pages.
Seriously, though, I would really appreciate the assistance. Discovering that my computer is struggling to run Elite Dangerous even on the lowest settings has been a bit of a blow, and I haven't got time to draw, model or render the ships by hand on my own and I'm not even half of the Photoshop wizard that Mobius is.
So if you are an Alpha player or a Premium Beta pledger then I look to you for help, and thank you in advance for anything you can do. No matter how small.
PM me if you can help and let me know. Thanks.
