This offer can be interesting. How much are you paying? No need to discuss the actual wages, but is it % of sales, X$/week + % of sale, X$/week, lump sum, nothing?

If this is not an IRrlicht project (and it's not stated anywhere, so I assume it's not) this request will be moved to either off-topic or game programming (OP please choose

). You should add a link to the website of your company, though, otherwise I'll consider this thread as SPAM and delete it. You know, just a yahoo adress and no ad links to the published games seems odd...

If that's the only think, I fear they are looking for the smart programmer that knows how to code, but dumb individual who doesn't realize that's worth something.

Sorry for not mentioning the official company website. It is www.xilvandesign.com
Our previous games are using blitz 3D with DX7 graphics. For our new project we want to use Irrlicht Open Source.

For payment, is negotiable privately. If you are interested please email.

Thank You,
David

Impressive, did you guys pay to be on download.com? that can be expensive. Looks like you guys are a rare real deal.

Ok, thanks. The quality of the movies, together with the perspective of Irrlicht usage justifies this announcement
