Famous Forum-goers Mod ! (need ideas)
« on: January 05, 2007, 07:39:20 pm »
Alright dudes, here's the plan : I want to make a weapon only mod about the more famous forum-goers, like Eagles-Arrows, that 't' guy, Vig (maybe). Each gun would be modled and named after it's forumer, e.g. Eagles Arrows would be a rambo-style bow that fires eagles :)

Because I went to Montreal and my imagination stayed behind, I need some suggestions for people. Just  post a nomination (for your self or others) and a couple of themes for guns and their ammo. Go ahead, I dare you ;)

The preferred outcome of war is peace. Ironic, huh ?

Make Keron a gun which takes over other players by underlining their guns, then denies it. :P

Make a gun based on Ru. Ask him for a voice sample, and make it the fire sound. Also, it should instantly kill whatever it touches and go through people.

Make FLAB a slow flight device which gradually picks up speed. Like the space shuttle, which has the aerodynamic properties of a brick with wings.

Avarax's gun should shoot that bomb thing he's got as an avatar.

Alright, let me restate this : weapons that are possible :) Possibly the only thing that anyone could ever do (other than EnEsCe and MM) would be the second and the fourth one.

The weapons xtishereb mentioned are 100% possible.

Am I "famous" enough for this?

Make Keron's gun shoot fists. That disarms people, probably the equivalent of taking people over in Soldat.

Also, the gradually gaining speed is possible if you set the speed boost to less than what Soldat views as the highest possible speed. Make it -100 speed with shotgun pellets for starters, adjust as needed.

Oh I knew the fists, but I understood it as something similar to that pervasive lag glitch goin' around. When you switch teams on a high-ping server, it's possible for you to kind of spectate another player, but have partial control over 'em. Y'can't do that with fists :)

And you may have misunderstood what putting negative speed values creates, it doesn't fire things slowly, it fires 'em backwards. I didn't fully grasp what you meant though, so could you re-explain ?

And Mister C., you are definately 'famous' enough :) Heck, I might get nominations (for anyone) then start a poll to find out who gets in.

I think that if you have the speed not be the maximum Soldat allows you to go normally (while falling, for example), then you can have acceleration as the speed increases to the maximum. I haven't tried this, so feel free to shoot me down after testing it.

If you think I'm worth it, a weapon "based on" me would have to be a chainsaw replacement... Not sure exactly what, though...

Well, xtishereb, I asked how to make a projectile slowly accelerate in another forum. The short answer, was 'it's impossible'. The long answer is that the physics engine in Soldat is sophisticated enough so that, without external influence (which is impossible on bullets) things only slow down. So sorry, but it's impossible ....

As for everyone else : I'm starting a poll, anyone who wants to be nominated in should do so by ... let's say Tuesday of next week. Then I can start work on the 'weapons only' mod over the weekend. Of course, if you want to volunteer to do your own gun then by all means do so :)

BTW, that means voting will open Wednsday.

I've been a member since ... eh spring 2005, no? Not the longest, but quite some. Since Zeor wants the chainsaw, I'll take the LAW, if accepted.

Heh, could be a laugh... go for it, and good luck making it.

Shooting banhammers maybe? ;)

Pick me, PICK ME!
Perhaps a keg, that shoots beer mugs, that explode, throwing beer everywhere that instantly kills whatever it touches (M79 replacement).

I want the m79 replacement because well....You can't say m79 here without thinking of me. But If you can, then you don't know me.

Or I could do the knife replacement, a STOP sign, or maybe a guitar that you can whack someone with, some kind of bizzare melee weapon ;D
