Vault 13 & 15 assets

[Misanthrope]

Hi,

Someone over on Bethsoft forum has been creating a modder's resource for Vault 13 and 15 assets. He's currently making Vault 13 via GECK - useful for anybody wanting to do a Fallout 1 remake on the FO3 engine.

I've contributed by making reskins for Vault 13 jumpsuits, armored suits, sliding door and entrance door.

I think it's useful!

Excellent. I was thinking how awesome it would be to remake Fallout 1 in the new engine.

I'll sign up on BethSoft forums now.

It's a shame the guy only plans to make Vault 13 and 15 but at least it's something I'm sure others will be interested in making the whole of FO1.

The difficulty will be with things like leveled enemies and karma though as FO1 used quite a different system.

I like the idea of creating the environment, atmosphere and storyline of FO1 using FO3's engine and established gameplaying style. And while i'm supportive of attempts to tweak and modify FO3 stats, perks, math, etc, to make them more canonically in-line with FO1/2 I don't like more brutal attempts to try and smash and hack FO3's engine into FO1/2 style gameplay.

But yeah, I hope some enterprising modder decides to head up the task of recreating Fallout 1 using FO3 assets. I'd definately help out as best I can.
