Title: Alien VS Predator 2 - Predators mod sfx overhaul
Post by: Headstriker on February 03, 2009, 12:54:59 pm
Hello everyone!



------------------------


> DOWNLOAD PREDATORS mod by Padulo - original(NO weapon interface) (http://files.filefront.com/PREDATORSrar/;7686062;/fileinfo.html)

> DOWNLOAD PREDATORS mod by Padulo (edited by wolfbr: weapon interface, alpha transperency bullets) (http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=2847.20)

> DOWNLOAD AvP2 sfx overhaul, reg interface, pickups upgrade + small things for PREDATORS mod here: (http://files.filefront.com/Predator+mod+upgraderar/;13217621;/fileinfo.html)


---------------------------------

I found a cool Predator mod, made by Padulo. I took the freedom and created an sfx overhaul for this mod, almost every sfx file has been replaced with AvP2 sounds to create a unique gameplay experience.

Here a picture of the interface:

Greetz, and stay tuned.

Could be, but era of .bmp gfx in interface has gone some time ago ;D. That's why I ended makin' em. Too much work to make a good one. Overall it's good. I mostly like how you made bars so they make nice effect when they're in not full positions.

This isn't the interface section. Looks fine to me.

Thanks for comments, i recently discovered soldat after a long time and thought i should share my stuff.   PaFel what do you mean with "the era of .bmp.." is over? Maybe i missed something important in my soldat break.

Nothing missed, main difference is someone like pixelling skill, and someone else photomanipulation experience, but we cant say about end of some era.

Discovered a nice predator mod, pretty cool and authentic. i took the freedom and added AvP2 sounds to it, added a REG interface and pickup graphics. Check it out you won't regret it ;)

Well done; more people should use you as an example when it comes to making addon revisions to existing mods.

I completely understand where you're coming from with the interface, but the side bars feel a bit too big. Maybe shrink them down a bit and add a bit of open margin to the sides so you can still see people coming in from the edges of the screen?

Thanks, yeah i tried to make it smaller as you've suggested, i shrinked it to 75%, smaller would've looked very odd, that was the smallest i could get and it indeed looks better now. The edges are a downside of the design idea unfortunately, can't change that without remaking it completely and i wanted to make it look like in the game ;)
- Added firebar on the right, which looks similar to the vestbar to make is symmetrical.

Here it is:

Also i added some small things: berserker, predator, godflame and infiltmus have nice musicthemes now, the rest of the pickup graphics, cursor, HQ flamersound and playerindicator.

I watched AVP a week ago, and noted that they used H&K G36s. So uh.... you might want to include one of those.  :)

Otherwise, nice.

There was never a requirement to use PNG. VGFlag's GOW mod is pretty much all BMPs and it is better than 90% of all the mods that try to use fancy PNG frills.
