[InnerLogic]

[GH33DA]

If I wasn't already pre-occupied with my own mod. :(

[GH33DA]

Game Idea:
A team based super powered hero vs villain which each team has to complete objectives in order to win. Each side will choose powers before the game begins, then they must fight to achieve certain map based goals. This mod could be done in UT2K4. Any comments?

The_Matrix, I assumed you were talking to Zane. Where you volunteering to help him?

[Octocamo]

No, I was volunteering to help you.

Was showing him a western mod for Half-Life because he said it would rule.

That sounds really cool. But there'll be different character models for different types of superheroes, correct?

If you mean by Super Heavy Weight, Heavy Weight, Normal, and Female, then yes.

[-Beck-]

Give the ladies a moderate rack, would ya? DoA titties are just disgusting.

[eswat]

gh33da, you will be doing voice acting too, end of discussion ;P

[EvilWall]

I can do some voices if you want, I do a good Sean Connery, Arnold, and Meatwad; I can pretty much immitate or emulate anyone with a distinctive voice (with the exception of high pitched voices, I have my limits). I also do a damn good Frank Sinatra, and Golem. I'll get some samples up when I get a mic on Sunday.

[Blank]

Just out of curiosity gheed, I would like to talk to you on how you're organizing the project. Perhaps you and I could pick up a little advice from each other?

Let me know if you would like to talk sometime.

[Shady45]

Sounds really cool.

[EvilWall]

I was getting a little feedback, just ignore it. I think it's my dishwasher machine going in the background.

Oh lawd.

[Violence in HD]

I have the capabilities to record high quality guitar/bass tracks. I have a friend here at college who is REALLY good (like, nearly John Mayer good) at guitar, and I can run a good bassline. Let me know if you'd like anything.

[eswat]

Actually dude, this mod is dead.

Just figured I bump it for memories. We don't get enough discussion in this part of the forum. :(

So true! :(

[JoEDigiTECH]

It was before my time here. Was there anything done ... at all?

[eswat]

GH33DA wrote a design document. I made some crappy building in Maya. Don't know what others did, if anything.
