New Beginnings

YAY I got married.
Well ive just got back from my 2 week honeymoon soaking up the sun :). Ive now gone from pasty white to slightly orange . YAY!
So as my life has taken on a new beginning i need to refocus on Illumina.
Illumina has been stalled lately for progress. We recently went into closed beta status which was very helpful in getting some much needed bug reports. Unfortunetely along with the release so too comes hiccups.
Another of my teammembers is currently away getting married himself and others are on temporary hiatus. So im turning to the gg community for help.
From everyone who has played they game they are very optimistic however i need the following to really get some feedback and volunteers onboard.
So its time to release a demo.
Dedicated Server Hosting
Im looking for someone to help setup a dedicated server for me. Unfortunetely my current hosting is limited to x gig a month and also doesnt do dedicated server hosting. So if anyone out there has the servers to spare it would be greatly appreciated
Download Mirrors
Looking for ppl who can host the demo. it weighs in at around 100 meg. I have no idea on the kind of hits it will generate but i know my server alone isnt enough.
Win32/Mac/Linux Gururs
Im looking for some coders to get onboard to help produce mac and linux versions of the game. Most of the game is now feature complete however there are additional updates we want to improve. mostly community resources such as the reflective water and DRL updates.
Mappers
Currently we have around 6 maps , each with 3 different gametype vartiations but we are looking for more. I have a number of stuff not yet integrated (Enviro Pack) plus plenty of old buildings and designs. Ideally someone who can build a texture objects, however im willing to take ppl proficient with the terrain editors e.t.c as we have a number of ready made buildings to slot in. Current gametypes are CTF/Team DM/Conquest
Theres plenty of other areas i would like to get onboard (animators/scripters) but for now i want to release the demo, get some feedback and then hopefully find some talent from there.
The hosting e.t.c is the crucial part to get a demo out there :)
and no plan is complete without pics.
You can contact me via email iroach@westnet.com.au
or by posting here of course :)

it's funny I'm looking for many of same things for finishing too (ded host, d/l, mac/linux builds...)
and darn it's too bad you stuck with the convex hud, it makes me sick to the pit of my stomache to look at (like I'm going on the "down" part of a roller coaster - no playing this game for me!)
