Got Stories?

[WARP-10]

I'm working on a 4 or 5 map project.

Does anyone have or know someone who has any Uneal based stories that haven't been used but would make a great story line?

I found one titled Nocturnal Raid by Boris M. Hansen that would be perfect though it dates back to 1998 and I can't seem to locate him.

Plus if anyone would like to help on the project that would be nice too.

Mostly stuff like texturing the rocks and surrounding landscape, creatively texturing a huge temple and the inside of a Krall space ship (maybe a Skaarj ship I haven't decided which yet). I might toss in some Tarydium mines too.

Hm, im working on a little campaign, too ([url=http://www.oldunreal.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1254407987]see here[/url]). So I would like see some pictures of your maps .
I have no idea for a story but I think its the best you invent your own one.

I got a tip for you that might make the mappack unique. Put new species in it, create new species, since all mappacks i know till now all have Skaarjs as enemy number 1. The maps are mostly nice to play, but that every exiting moment in custom maps  a skaarjlord or something appears as boss of the level gets a bit boring in my eyes. But that is just my opinion.

EDIT: Might you consider this idea i'd like to help creating new species, i've been willing to for a while but its just that i can't map, else i would have created one times ago

I don't have any screen shots handy. The ones you have are so dark I can't tell what it is.

I have no plot for a story so lacking that Ill just fill it with enemies and leave it at that.

I wouldn't have the slightest idea on how to make a new game character and those who do don't. Go figure.

A situation like that reminds me of an old proverb but I can't think of what it is.

If someone makes one I'll do what I can to put it to good use.

You got a nuke bomb animation script?

Someone should make a campaign that starts somewhere outside on ice, in a canyon, with a cutscene of Skaarj vessels bombing it and after that you start playing, with your first objective to get the f*ck out of there.

I dont know if you got my point but nvm, best thing to do for me is just finding a mapper who thinks the same and wants to help creating a new mappack with custom species, sorry for these strange posts i made about Skaarjs, it's just that it MIGHT be a bit more exiting and unexpecting to see new species for a change, so ill work on it and post it somewhere on this forum as soon as i got farther in it.

You recommended that I place a new species in what I am working on:

"I got a tip for you that might make the mappack unique. Put new species in it,"

I told you that I don't know how to create such things and that those who do know how to do that aren't doing it. (I searched a long time, I see no new species made for Uneal1 except for the 3 made for RTNP and those are factory issue.)

Then you said:

"I dont know if you got my point but nvm,"

I understand your point just fine that you would like to see a new species onboard Uneal1.

If you are offering that you and I attempt to make a new species then that is OK and I'm not opposed to that. If so you should not veil your ideas in such a way. You should say:

"Why don't we both try to make a new species for the game?"

I would say:

"Sure why not, I'll give it a try since no one else is."

You could have even put that in private message and if we did it, it would have been a complete surprise.

I have been researching stuff to try to go about doing this so do you wanna give it a shot or no?

Well, i wasn't thinking that big, like making new models no, could be but i still have to learn modeling which i will i will eventually, i was more talking about mutated species, new skins and such, and yea, maybe a custom model at some point but i can't make such stuff yet. I haven't thought about that in the earlier posts, but i still like to make some modifided skaarjs for your mappack if you like? Still having the Skaarj as enemy but a few new classes, if you like?

Diseased Skaarj? To weak to fight but they sneak up on you fast and take half your health? (no need to model a weapon)

Electric Skaarj? He can use his existing weapon except its electric? (no need to model a weapon)

Hypno Skaarj? Hit you with mind waves? (no need to model a weapon)

Dreaded Skaarj? Carry bomb packs and blow themselves up? (edit a skin for a bomb pack, (no need to model a weapon))

Just edit the skin of an existing Skaarj. I have SkinEd around here somewhere. Never edited any skins with it though.

For the ones totally bored of Skaarj we could have one with short eyesight, he runs off every time he sees you like the first one you see in the ISV Kran.

[mentalhunter]

I made a couple of skins(only changed hue/saturation etc..) , i'm not sure i can make some of those Skaarjs you mentioned, i'm not that good tho but i like to try.
