Do you know what a height map is and why forgetting one will absolutely ruin your day?

Do you look at NPC structures and think, “Yeah… I could build on that”?

If so, we need you.

SWG Evolve is looking for Volunteer 3D Graphic Designers to help us expand the galaxy and push the game closer to what it should have always been.

This is a volunteer role for passionate creators who want to leave their mark on the project and help bring new structures, interiors, and content into the world for players to enjoy.

What You’ll Be Doing

You will be working with our development team to create and implement in-game structures, interiors, and related assets.

This includes:

• Building bases onto NPC structures using Blender 3.6

• Using the NoStyleGuys importer/exporter

• Exporting proper .msh files

• Creating all exterior structure LOD versions (some structures require 3 to 5 variations depending on distance)

• Generating floor and ceiling height maps for interiors
  (Yes, this is important. Very important. Unless you enjoy decorations disappearing into the void.)

• Ensuring correct sign placement so structures function properly

• Working with server-side TAB files including:

• player_structure.tab

• player_structure_sign.tab

• height_maps.tab

If those file names scare you, this may not be your destiny. If they excite you, welcome home.

Why Join SWG Evolve?

Because we are not just maintaining a server.

We are building the game the way it should have evolved.

Every structure, every interior, every creative piece of content you build becomes part of the galaxy players explore daily. Your work becomes someone’s guild hall, someone’s shop, someone’s home.

This is your chance to help expand the universe and contribute directly to something players will experience and enjoy.

And yes, people will absolutely decorate your structures in ways you never expected.
