Project Reckon

In the not too distant future two forces battle it out in a post apocalyptic world, using the the deadliest arsenal of weapons the world has ever seen.

I have been working on this mod for quite awhile now and i fear, without help, it will never be done. And since i see great potential in this mod i don't want to scrap it, I want to see all the happy faces when it is released.

*more info below images*

~New Weapon previews~

MAAG

HSR39

Coalition Weaponry

Axis Weaponry

For the ones who like the original weapons

Original Weaponry

*there is another weapon set not shown*

Open Positions

In game gfx manager
I need a person experienced in creating in game gfx, such as the bullets, shells, and in game weapons.

Sound Manager
This mod will require lots, and i mean lots of sounds. If anyone out their has a expansive library of weapon sounds and explosions, you will be a big help.

Level Design
I need a person experienced in mapping, and way pointing preferably. Some good maps would really complete this mod.

I will also need gosteks, and a good explosion.

I have most of the interface done and most of the weapons (ive got the config working also). The weapons.ini will be tackled later on.

If you would like to be a part of this mod please leave the position you would like to fill and your contact information (msn, xfire, or email). Thanks in advance for anyone who would like to help.

These are all really nice. I can help with maps if you want.

Keron Cyst · « **Reply #2 on:** December 13, 2006, 07:38:02 pm »

But you always find a mapping style and stick harder than glue to it ;Q
I think I could do weapons-gfx, although they may be a bit... large. Mine usually are.

BTW, I love your original Minigun. That needs to replace the current one so much it's not even funny.

Wraithlike · « **Reply #3 on:** December 13, 2006, 07:43:48 pm »

I can do different mapping styles. I'm gonna go make a defaultish map because of that!

yamo · « **Reply #4 on:** December 13, 2006, 08:00:12 pm »

lol keron my guns always turn out large also =\. Wraithlike can i see some of your maps?

PS: im also quite fond of that minigun, i could improve my original chainsaw though, i suck at making chainsaws.

wow nice maps, i tried mapping once, i try to forget that...anyway yea i could really use your maps. do you think you could make urban settings?

ultraman · « **Reply #8 on:** December 13, 2006, 08:30:22 pm »

Wraithlike · « **Reply #9 on:** December 13, 2006, 08:35:00 pm »

Sure, I can do urban. Would you like slightly futuristic? Or maybe post apocalyptic? Or just a straight city?

yamo · « **Reply #10 on:** December 13, 2006, 08:45:37 pm »

a little of both futuristic and post apoc. a creepy feel to it sorta. Cause it is a city where millions died when [watever caused the apoc] destroyed it xD.

Ultraman i like your maps also, you can help. Could you do a dark forest setting? CTF with 2 buildings (bases) on both sides of the map.

PapaSurf · « **Reply #11 on:** December 13, 2006, 09:56:25 pm »

Coalition weaponry isn't bad. I like the M715 ISMG and the minigun, but the rest don't really live up to those standards.

Axis weapons are mostly Unreal Tournament guns and look quit nice. You could make a decent UT mod with some of those plus a little editing.

Your originals are just edits of Michal's Soldat Evolved weapons and some defaults. The similarities in many of them are too strong to ignore. I bet many of the colors are the same too. Kind of a disappointment but the others look nice.

Keep at it, though.

ultraman · « **Reply #12 on:** December 13, 2006, 10:46:48 pm »

Ok, Yamo, I'll try and get on that soon. Can I have some details about the map eg. How much jets, how big, weather/atmosphere. If you could sketch me a quick concept idea or layout, that would be awsome, something like this would be perfect:

Anubis · « **Reply #13 on:** December 13, 2006, 10:53:13 pm »

I can do Gosteks

yamo · « **Reply #14 on:** December 14, 2006, 07:54:30 am »

yea ultra i was working on the layout last night, ill get it to you once im done, plus all the other info.

Anubis, thanks, ill find some images for you so you got an idea of what to create.

Papasurf yea the original do look a lot like the ones from soldat advanced, but i tried to make them look as different as i could (including colors). how many ways can you change the default weapons and still be able to recognize them as the originals. The set im not showing yet should have some more weapons similar to the coalition style.

Requiem- · « **Reply #15 on:** December 14, 2006, 08:27:07 am »

Just a little remark: shouldn't the Coalition minigun be bigger related to the other guns? It's nice though, don't change the design of it.

The Red Guy · « **Reply #16 on:** December 14, 2006, 08:50:33 am »

Yeah Requiem- is right, the minigun should be bigger.

xtishereb · « **Reply #17 on:** December 14, 2006, 12:45:30 pm »

I could probably try ripping sounds from some Doom wads, games I have or other mods. I'll provide credit where it's needed, though.

Sweet....I have some good map ideas too if that will help...

yamo · « **Reply #19 on:** December 14, 2006, 04:53:34 pm »

The coalition wanted a minigun thats easily moved around the battlefield over firepower, thats why the coalition minigun is a little smaller than the others. Once i start makin the weapons stats this will be noticeable.

Xtisereb thx, i need all the sounds i can get, especially machine gun sound effects. Can you get as many as you can and put them all into a folder? host it on a site and pm me the link? or you can just send me the folder at yamogogy15@aim.com

Anubis map ideas would be good, ill pass them onto the mappers (pm me with the details). and im working on finding some nice models for the gosteks, ill pm them to you as soon as i find them.

numgun · « **Reply #20 on:** December 14, 2006, 05:44:06 pm »

gun sfx? go to www.findsounds.com and type in words like ''rifle,gun,machinegun,laser,beam ect.''

Btw, why on earth are you even thinking of such things like ''OHNIEZ MY MAWD GO DWON TEH TIOLET LOL!'' I mean if youre even bored in making it then release it or just give your motivation some time to get intrested in making the mod again. just a hint.

yamo · « **Reply #21 on:** December 14, 2006, 06:07:38 pm »

lol no im not bored of it or anything, i dont have the time to do it all by myself. school comes first, and once i do get enough time for the comp, ive gotta split that time with a very annoying bro =\. *sigh* schools t3h sux this year.

and ive tried that site b4r, i only get wierd sounds...not the type of sounds im wanting.

Deadeye Rob · « **Reply #22 on:** December 15, 2006, 12:27:18 pm »

i know exactly what you mean! lol

I wouldnt mind helping in some way if possible! Ive been doing weapon gfx for a while.

aleksanteri · « **Reply #23 on:** December 15, 2006, 01:12:37 pm »

Looks really nice, I will get it when it's done

Bots are my speciality, PM me if you want some

yamo · « **Reply #24 on:** December 15, 2006, 04:50:53 pm »

lol yea deadeye *invents a time stop machine*...alek ill keep you in mind if i need bots, but ill prolly just end up doing them myself.

Smegma · « **Reply #25 on:** December 15, 2006, 06:56:38 pm »

I use to develope/capture some sounds for a medieval set online game. I dont know about capturing near feature machine guns, but I could see what I could do as far as manipulation.

ANdro!d · « **Reply #26 on:** December 16, 2006, 11:50:59 am »

Don't worry about the sounds, I will find all that you whant 4 this mod.
And when you're going to host it, tell me because I'll take care of that to, ok ?

Sotija · « **Reply #27 on:** December 16, 2006, 03:56:16 pm »

:O This is really AWESOME!

yamo · « **Reply #28 on:** December 17, 2006, 11:16:35 am »

hopefully it will be even more awsome when its done xD

Date Posted: December 16, 2006, 07:29:33 PM

Ive added 2 new weapons for you all to look at (first post)

ultraman · « **Reply #29 on:** December 19, 2006, 08:38:04 am »

Looking good yamo, as you know I've finished the first map for this mod already

Keron Cyst · « **Reply #30 on:** December 19, 2006, 11:28:56 am »

Hm, so you don't care if the weapons-gfx may be oversized? ~~Then PM me a link to the Coalition int.-gfx and I'll get started!~~
Well, since Deadeye Rob's already working on the Coalition pack, I guess I wouldn't mind tackling Axis Weaponry...

Hootie hoo · « **Reply #31 on:** December 21, 2006, 03:40:05 pm »

Those guns look great!
Can't wait for the release.

reckon · « **Reply #32 on:** December 25, 2006, 07:12:23 pm »

I leave for a month and someone makes a mod after me.
I rule.

yamo · « **Reply #33 on:** December 26, 2006, 03:15:51 pm »

lol coincidence, thats just a temporary name anyway xD.

O.o · « **Reply #34 on:** December 26, 2006, 05:34:06 pm »

Bunney · « **Reply #35 on:** January 02, 2007, 08:52:14 am »

Damm this luks great! especially the chainsaw! w00t hope it will be finished soon

Kawknes55 · « **Reply #36 on:** January 22, 2007, 08:26:03 am »

i have all the counterstrike condition zero weapon sfx for my mod on my webserver, i can give u the link if u want.

GAMEOVER · « **Reply #37 on:** January 22, 2007, 11:40:49 am »

I really really cant stand cartoonish/scifi weapons 90% or more of the time but some of those you made look real good. Keep it up. Make a modern firearms mod to replace the original Soldat. Only 3 good ones have been made imo but im workin on a 4th.

yamo · « **Reply #38 on:** January 27, 2007, 09:23:30 am »

im sorry but there has been some... problems in getting the last few parts of the mod together. Good news is i got a new comp for x-mas, bad news is the old one had everything for the mod on it. and it gets worse...when i tried to boot up the old comp to get the mod off of it...it died. So yea, everything was lost in the system restore. A mod of the scale i was planning now seems near impossible. i have no idea what i will do now besides get the guns off the previews and start over from scratch.

moral of the story: Put everything on a disc
