The Novobirsk Conspiracy

[AlexDenton]

hi

the other topic created by kBo was sort of... misleading lol

so here it is

Me and kBo and hopefully a few other modders wil be making a mod using the original DeusEx unreal script
it wont be like other mods since it wil not include the orignial plot at all

the first episode will be called Operation Eternal Winter

here is the file kBo made

[AlexDenton]

*asks permission to join*

sure! we can be like robin hoods' merry men

[FireGod]

Hmm....can i make the guns for this so called conspiracy?

[Bob]

can u actually re-skin guns etc or can u just change their properties like just about anyone in the dx world can?

[Zarger]

No I have seen FireGod I like his modding he is a very good one.

[Bob]

*requires proof to be convinced*

[FireGod]

umm does this sound familiar to you:

#exec TEXTURE IMPORT NAME=<> FILE=Textures\<> GROUP=Icons
#exec TEXTURE IMPORT NAME=<> FILE=Textures\<> GROUP=Icons

Icon=Texture'MyPackage.Icons.<>'
largeIcon=Texture'MyPackage.Icons.<>'

[FireGod]

I know how to make packages, lol, like ProjectileClass, bHasSilencer etc.

changing properties wont work in DXMP lol, but it will work fine in DX single player

By the way, I just need to know how I compile them and I am all set to go.

[FireGod]

That looks just like the one smuggler has!!


Lol. All those words are familiar.

[Bob]

and thats "changing the properties"

Re-skinning/modelling is to create a completely different weapon

[Jeoh]

That looks just like the one smuggler has!!


Lol. All those words are familiar.

It's my Dartgun, the skin and model of a stealthpistol, firing sound of a minicrossbow, reloading and cocking sound of a stealthpistol, decreased range and less ammo, but the bullets have been changed to darts. Flare, Tranquiliser and normal darts to be precise.

[FireGod]

Umm...first of all, the code i put in is something you use to texture guns, like, umm,, make a sodacan a 7Up Can so, uh, yeah, its NOT called changing the properties, it's called texturing.


BTW Joey you said you need to compile your packages, find em here:

Universal Constructor

[Jeoh]

Also, I am hereby applying for the project.

Yeh, I just found that !

[FireGod]

So what you guys are saying is im a complete n00b who edits properties of weapons and calls them "mods" and wants to join a team of advanced mappers/modders who have more skills than me?

[FireGod]

i feel offended

[Bob]

could you not have just wrote that in the same post?

[AlexDenton]

LISTEN!!!

MODDING - changing weapon properties

MODDELING/SKINNING - changing weapon appearence or creating completely new weapon

u are thinking of modding

me and kBo will take care of the 3D moddeling

[Bob]

you can model marco

you never told me

*goes off in the huff*

[kBo]

He's my apprentice.

[FireGod]

[FireGod]

*is going to work on AK-47's, MP5's, and M16's(moddelling) right away*

[kBo]

Send me a copy at kbo_29@hotmail.com when you're done. If they're good enough, you might have a spot on the team.

[[FireGod]]

*declines offer* No thanks, kBo, I work alone


*changes his mind on joining [A]/making mods for 'em*

I MIGHT change my mind, that is, I MIGHT

[kBo]

This isn't strictly an [A] mod, as we have [TT]AlexDenton helping and we are sharing resources with Grayfox's Deus Ex: Overhaul, a port of DXMP to UnrealEngine3 with better textures and improved maps. Zero and Mantra are helping with DXO.

[[FireGod]]

Ohh....

I get it

[[FireGod]]

I'm an experienced modder, lol, and modders shouldn't have to MODEL. Lol. I'm modelling anyways. Getting help from some really *helpful* websites.

Remember, turn that frown upiside down

[[FireGod]]

Good luck with the Novabrisk conspiracy


*thumbs up*
