Let me take get to your questions here:
1. Would Maztica be an accectable world for COPAP?
Absolutely. Maztica exists as a continent/area on the planet Toril, so it would fall under the part of CoPaP that is trying to put Toril together, albeit loosely.
2. Would anyone be intrested in Hosting such a modual?
CoPaP is generally where you come to after you have a place to host your module because we essentially are just independent PW's who gather under the same umbrella, if you will. But if you ask around, I think there might be some folks around here that would host. I'll see what I can do about that.
3. Would anyone be willing to work on the modual. (Note i have started a demo mod using our custom content.)
This is a bit tougher. Labor is never easy to get, even for the worlds that are already IN CoPaP. Any world in CoPaP would take coders, builders or anything, so sparing people out of our (separate and independent) staffs would probably not be feasible.
You would really need to assemble a staff of your own as best as possible, and then come to us. But with a world like Maztica, I think you might get at least a couple devotees. Your website might have some fans willing and able to do it.
4. Is such custom content allowed? Such as new weapon and armor models. Like this jaguar warrior gear ...
Custom content that players can take with them to other worlds, such as armor models and items, would have to go into our Universal hakpak. That's usually not a problem unless you've got like 300 megs zipped worth of stuff. On the other hand, the custom content that stays on your world, like placeables, creatures, and tilesets, you can do whatever you like, because it does not affect other CoPaP worlds' haks, i.e. we do not need to have all the same tilesets hooked up to our worlds, but we do need to have the same item and character models.
5. Is COPAP accepting new races like Maztican (Mezo-American Humans), Payit (Jungle Gnomes), Dog People (Wolf Humanoids),
Greenfolk (Plant Humanoids) and/or Tabaxi (Jaguar Humanoids)?
Yes, CoPaP allows you to put in your own races. This is the kind of change that affects all servers. Players need to be able to take your new races to other servers, and your server would need to accommodate all of our races. CoPaP uses Red Golem's Autobic system for races. Your human and gnome races would be instantly createable and no haks changes would be needed. The wolf, plant, and jaguar ones would need character models and a racialtypes.2da change, which is also doable, but you'd have to wait until we updated our haks, which we do every so often.
I hope that answers your questions well. If you are able to get a small team of 2 or 3 people together to build this PW, then write me up a quick PM or email on what your project is envisioned to be, and I'll put you through the CoPaP world application process.
