Project: BnW

I have written an 8 page story for the mod, but I wont release it until the mod is done.


Even more screenshots for you!

Some dialog, I think.

UPDATE:
A part of an .msg file for someone. Guess who.

Code: 
# Examines
{100}{}{You see an older woman.}
{101}{}{You see a woman who looks as if she runs this place.}

# What she says in dialog
{120}{}{Hello sir. What could I do for you?}
{121}{}{Hello ma'am. What could I do for you?}
{122}{}{Well, I run this here school. Who are you? You dont look like you are from here either.}
{123}{}{Well, about 15 years ago when I was living in New Reno, I was married to the man who was responcible for the alcoholism in the town.}
{124}{}{Well, a rival family made an alcohol still and put my husband out of business. He was so devistated that he commited suicide.}
{125}{}{After that, I lived with a minister who was secretly an alcoholic himself, but I didn't know it at the time.}
{126}{}{When he died of alcohol poisoning, I lost all hope and wandered into the desert, hoping that I ran into one of those Deathclaw that I've heard about.}
{127}{}{No. After about three days I ran into a merchant from a place called "The Hub", who took me with them. They made a stop in this town and I got off. I was tired of traveling.}
{128}{}{Luckily, this town is a city of angels. There is a bar, but everyone here has such self control. I started teaching the young children at my home, you know, to contibute my part to society.}
{129}{}{Then, about 8 years ago the steel mill went out of business and let me start teaching here. Now, the school is more sucessfull than I have ever imagined.}
{130}{}{Sure. I could always use some help teaching children. The only requirements are that you must love children and know what you are teaching.}
{131}{}{Get out of my sight you skumbag!}
{132}{}{Well, it was nice talking to you.}
{133}{}{Goodbye.}
{134}{}{Ok, come with me.}

# What you say in dialog
{140}{}{Hi. What do you do here?}
{141}{}{Hello. You don't look as if you are from around here.}
{142}{}{Uh... I think I hear my mom calling me.}
{143}{}{Thats nice. I need to go now.}
{144}{}{How did you find out?}
{145}{}{Go on.}
{146}{}{Thats interesting. Tell me more.}
{147}{}{Did you?}
{148}{}{Do you need another teacher?}
{149}{}{Well, I'm not sure where I came from either. That is why I'm here.}
{150}{}{Oh sure, it's just hard not to eat them.}
{151}{}{Well, it was nice listening.}
{152}{}{Wait, I have a question to ask you.}
{153}{}{Ok, I'll do it.}

# random lines for cheating and stuff.

{285}{}{Cheat mode activated!}

{171}{}{None right now.}

{175}{}{Gimme lots of items and weapons.}

{185}{}{Make it so that ive already completed the Marmart quest.}
{185}{}{Make it so that ive already discovered the vault seekret.}
{180}{}{Ok then. Ill see you later.}
{190}{}{Okee dokee.}
{200}{}{Thanks. Bye.}
{210}{}{It is done.}


{500}{}{Hey, cut it out butthole!}
{501}{}{Oh, sorry}

{666}{}{These god damned children should die of gangreen of the cock and rot in hell}



This is the last update pretty much until its done. I need testers to find bugs if anyones interested.
 
oh yah... thats the stuff :) Nice work, are you going to make a complete mod or a partial mod? how many hours of gameplay do you think this mod will pump out?

I would bug test for ya but im busy right now... if i get some free time i will :)

keep up the good work
 
I dont feel like doing crap for the worldmap so its just going to replace ARTEMPLE.MAP and you will go to other cities via transporters of some type. theres going to be two cities and a church similar to the cathedral from FO1. The other town is called Silver City, which is based on a theme park near my house.

To the average fallout player, this will probaably produce 10-15 hours of play.

EDIT:

I was messing around with a 3d modeling program and I ended up making a half-assed 3d map for the first part of town.

The maps look ok, but I hope you don't mind if I throw in some constructive critism?

The door in the underground store is quite out of place. Some of the maps, like the underground hospital are a little bit "bare", are there any more objects you can place? The floor tiles and roof tiles look a little repetative, could you use a larger selection?

Hope you appreciate my feedback. All in all you are doing a good job. Great work!

Thanks for your input. Most of the things you mentioned are things that I will do towards the end or whenever I get bored. The door is just there to hold my place until I get around to making an in wall stairway for cave walls like the one in the Enclave oil rig. And I probably wont even make that room a store, because Mar-Mart came in and monopolized it all. And the hospital I had just started two hours before I made the screenshots.



When the "excitement" for the mod dies down, I will post some of the story. Its a doosey.
 
HELP WANTED:

MAP MAKERS:
What you will be building is Dead Mans Dungeon. I will draw out some concept images and you will build it from them.

SCRIPTERS:
This mod will need around 300 new scripts. Obviously I cant make all of them and keep my sanity.


TO APPLY PM ME
 
I think its good idea to make all front or inside buildings walls as trans-light (holographics) This will look like new game engine- but just used method like was possible but not used by game designers.
 
Good idea. I will do that, but make it so that a spacial script in the doorway changes all the walls inside the building to TRANS GLASS

It looks nice, and I see you have a cool Las Vegas sign :D

but a cuople of tips regarding the maps;
When you make underground maps, you should not have roof tiles behind the walls, there is a both easier and better looking way to do this.
behind the walls, you place out some black walls, and you odn't need any roof, you just use black floor tiles, you can find them in the "Use pattern" thingie...
Like this:

See the differance?:


You should check out the vault maps to see for your self, I had lots of truble with this when I first started ampping, but then I checked out the vault maps and I had an "AHAAA"-experience :wink:

EDIT: one more thing, I wouldn't use cavern floor tiles on surface maps, since it gives the feeling of beeing in a cave, and when you then see a huge sign that could impossibly fit inside a cave, you start to wonder :wink:

I wasnt aware they were cavern floor tiles. Ill try to find something better looking though.




EDIT:
I made some big pictures of SerialKillie nd the second part of LV






EDIT #2
I have the website up, but not much content, and my hosting is up soon and I have no money so I will have to rely on another source of free hosting when the time comes.
 
Thanks. Where did you see the story?

EDIT: wait, its on the front page of NMA. silly me

I decided to not allow the player toaccess the world map and just have a vehical that you activate and decide where to go via a dialog script attached to it. Mostly because people dont usually walk around in the desert. also, its much easier that way(for me at least.)

New screenshots comming soon, and maybe even a playable demo of the first town if I make more scripts and organize everything.


While your waiting for the demo, you could check out the serial killer map:

http://www.xavierblazer.com/projectbnw/serialmap.htm

Ignore the story. I wrote it thinking that it was going to be on a different mod.
 
No Screenshots or demo yet because ive had an unexpected growth in the ammount of things I had to do. Still need scripters, but not as desperately. demo is nearing completion too.

I have a problem. I need a new critter FRM. he has to have a red COC robe, but with the hood down. Ive heard of people taking critter animations from Baldurs Gate and FOT, but I havent played BG and havent even beaten the 4th level of FOT. Does anyone know if their is an animation close to this in one of those games?

Now, bad news for the player. I have designed the main character to a very long extent, and unfortunately you cant play the mod with a custom built character.
 
Sorry everyone. Ever since I got a job Ive neglected the mod. Not any more. I have a couple days off and I am going to try to finish the demo.

Also, I have an Idea for telephones. Getting quests over the phone by a mysterious stranger with a deep voice, calling the quest giver and saying "What was I supposed to do again?", calling a number you heard a homeless drunk guy mumble and finding that it is an obscure pop culture reference, and much more!

Sounds awesome! Can't wait.
 
Thanks to the intro to Fallout 1 for the idea(the part where it shows the ad for the vaults and says "Call Now")
I think ill call your phone a "Sub-Etha Tell-o-matic"

I still need help. With help the mod will be finished sooner!

EDIT: My hosting for Xavierblazer.com is up in 10 days. After that many of the screenshots on the thread will experience a total existence failure. I could fix the forum and use that for the main site temporarily, but if someone were to be so kind as to point me in the direction of a free host that doesnt include 10 spyware programs with every file I upload then I would be happy.
