HISTORY OF ESF - AS TOLD BY MASTASURF
The History of ESF
First of all, I did not found Power-up. I Founded ESF alongside SS Vegeta, Stryker and Harsens.
Powerup .... I joined as a webmaster (hehe) and drug stryker in as a mapper. Soon we got our first modeler, SS Vegeta (yey!).
Several months passed.. We had a Stryker's small cell arena and a corpsish looking vegeta model (thanks to a very newbed out modeler and skinner... ss and myself)
More time passed.... nothing got done
Our leader wasn't mature enough for his responsibilities so SS and Myself decided to leave and change our name.
Thus, ESF was born.
Soon we picked up Harsens (Thank god! a coder!) who started putting our crappy gfx ingame and working on flying and some primitive beams.
Then we picked up Tark who did our original piccolo model.
One day I ran into Pcjoe in an odd way and he eventually began teaching me some skinning tricks. After some Hars coding progress he was persuaded to join up with us :0) At the time he was a mod veteran and taught us a lot of the basics about HL modding
btw, you'll notice the team page is kept in chronological order
Anyways, now we had a decent sized team going. A lot of trial members were going in and out. Thankfully VT and iG came to our hosting rescue after months without a site. We were back in the public and eventually cranked out alpha 1.5.... yadda yadda yadda
