I should state that I am considering having multiple worldspaces, one for each major map. When you reach the edge of a map you will be allowed to 'travel' to the adjoining map. The mechanic of travel is much the same, except when you get near the edges of one of my giant regions it will ask...

Got a bit dejected and real world projects were calling. But anyhoo, carrying on with the project at my own pace, currently at the following: - Have my own little safe and secure worldspace with a workable rough terrain to represent the piece of America I want. Still working out my 'layering'...

I've considered multiple approaches in regards to actual implementation, but I'm not aiming for realistic scale. I just want something that looks cool, I'm more than happy to have it be 1/60th scale. My final scale overall would probably be on the same magnitude if not higher. The actual...

I don't think a Fallout 1 remake is going to happen, you will need someone with mongo-dedication and those sorts of folks want to work on something new, not reiterate the past (for the most part). Pseudo FO1 world map travel can be scripted, I was considering a giant switch script.. didn't...

My primary concern would be a setting like say, New York City, will it choke or allow the user to see a collection of skyscrapers in the distance? Otherwise assuming they are using all the standard game graphics technology of the day, the complexity of the scenery should not be an issue. It...

Great idea, working on some locations myself (off to the south of the world map) I'll try to keep tabs on compatibility with this mod. If I ever get a spare second hopefully I can get a thread started about modding buildings/clutter/actors so we can all share tips and tricks, ideally I'll get my...

Would you pay $500 for a really good game? Just the game, no hardware or what not... just 500 bucks worth of content with lots of passion behind it. There is a reason games are not developed like art. They require teams, they are sold at too low a price, and they must appeal to a very fickle...

All of those mods are easy, and I'm sure various mods will do so. In my mods I intend to make loot a lot more interesting, harder to get to maybe, but you should get some reward if you've done something cool.

I don't let the naysayers detract too much, but I was getting a little testy that I acknowledged it and was still getting the same thing repeated to me over and over. I am waiting for the community to sort out various bits and pieces. Given the importance of dialog in my mod I've decided to...

I think wide open waste and manual travel has some charm if done properly. I'm also worried I'll bore the more rabid tweens in the audience with my concept of travel actually taking longer than two minutes (until you get a vehicle mod which will probably be fast travel like morrowind). My...

I am doing mostly text, I am debating whether to voice act certain characters, or whether having one character voice acted out of a hundred would just be too weird to work. So anyways, mostly it is heaps of text, if I use voice acting it will mostly be for the high impact characters like...

If I ever get a free moment I am going to make a mod to let me walk around the terrain to the south of the map. I'm sure someone else will have figured it out by the time I can comment though (most of my dev time needs to come around the holidays).

Well now that we got the GECK time to have some fun. First order of business appears like I got to fix dialog systems so I can actually write quickly around their stupid character limits. I'll be sure to release whatever tool I make for it (I might just code an app to spit out whatever solution...

Oeolycus you stop reading my brain! The mod I would like to make, this has been one of my basic design principles. Characters and locations in the world have their own stories, motivations, and activities... start there, and then build the game by constructing those stories and introducing...

I'm not personally interested in swords existing or not. I just like to encourage a modder to use their creativity, and disapprove of statements such as: According to some of the talk I've seen on boards, half of Fallout 1 is inconsistent with Fallout canon. And if you listen to the realists...

I like the one man army approach since it reduces things down to one point of decision, and one point of failure. Managing a team can be difficult. Besides, I've already stated I would assist the F3C effort once it is ready for dialog/location work. I will not be releasing anything until...

FO1/FO2 seemed to indicate there are significant populations beyond tribal status. There were also many examples of technological progress outside of big BOS and Enclave. For instance, hardened power armor, whatever the gunrunners were doing, making bullets, creating chems, repairing various...

Lol, I love people can't resist cheating and ask for mods to make it unavailable. Same with the hacking minigame, they complain about its ease saying "just hack three times and then exit and repeat". With quicksaving you can do the same thing for ANYTHING in the game! I personally play my own...

Please suggest additions/retractions to my character creation list, please recall that everything I'm intending to research needs to get on the list in design, I want my research phase to be mostly chopping/implementing, not random wandering. CHARACTER CREATION RESEARCH DOC: STATS and...

Well, moving on I've decided to spare the more detailed sections for now and start on a bullet list, if something catches the public eye I can pull up the full excerpts. Right now I'm designing two research projects. 1. Location test: A small extension to the FO3 worldmap, I'm thinking...
