Frugo_PL 0 Posted October 4, 2002 As I asked for help with models from The Thing, no one wanted to help me. Therefore I decided to make my own model. After learing the basics of O2, I am currently working on the monster... You should see the mod in about 3-4 months... And if anyone IS interseted in helping me out, then please e-mail me... PS. For more info about the movie, visit this site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frugo_PL 0 Posted October 4, 2002 Damn, it's harder than I thought! I will need some help with the models. If anyone is interested in helping me out, then e-mail me or post a reply here!!! I am in deep shit, so I relly need help!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BratZ Posted October 7, 2002 I looked at the webpage and what exactly are you making? A guy with 2 smashed faces? Transforms? So you are going to model a soldier? Do you realize how hard that is and we can't change the animations yet and it will act like the rest of soldiers in the game. You might want to start with something easier at first like a box, and thats actually harder than u think. But Grade A on the imagination,thats what it takes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frugo_PL 0 Posted October 7, 2002 hmm, if you watched the movie or at least read the book, then you know what I am talking about... I see that there is a lot of young people here who don't know what real horror is about (not just cool monsters and special effects). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moriv 0 Posted October 7, 2002 The Thing was a great movie, which I just recently watched once again and I believe it would make a great mod, 'specially on a Winter Island with complete darkness. None the less, if you intend to make characters from the Thing you should also check out some of the characters from the game, such as the GenInc soldiers.

Major Fubar 0 Posted October 8, 2002 Dunno much about modelling, but I would imagine something as complex as the Thing would be extremely hard to make and get ingame with O2...I mean, there aren't any animations that would work with something this complex, are there? Anyway, good luck. The Thing is still one of my all time fave movies... P.S. Anyone checked out the game? http://www.pcgameworld.com/game.php/id/1260 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grade A on the imagination,thats what it takes<span id='postcolor'> I read this over at http://www.natosoldier.com/ The ability to edit animations is not far away. October 01, 2002 at 2001 hours, Fliper reports in: ...on the official forums someone from BiS once said that "animation editing ISN'T POSSIBLE"... and today I'm proud to reveal that OFPinternals and me(FlipeR) broke this last limit in OFP editing! The .RTM format has already been "known" for some 3 weeks now, but lack of time prevented any implementations - now the latest P3DEdit have the ability to load and show you ALL OFP aimations! The next step? Animation editing. Go to the site and see what they have to say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd love to get my hands on some Thing models and then a GenInc soldier model or two to make a mission on one of the winter Islands. Of course...it would be excessively cool if we could script soldiers to mutate into things randomly at points...hrm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eisa01 0 Posted October 8, 2002 just wondering why you will make a mod based on "The Thing" it have just been relesed for ps2 pc and xbox not to dicourage you but i dont see the need for it. well i wish u luck on the making, im sure it will be good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, that's right. Adding the terror aspect to OFP. Thing that would be nice for a Thing Mod: The choppers they use(No actual clue what those choppers are...), GenInc soliders, Thing models, new map(I know that this isn't likely, though it would be enjoyable to have a map with US Outpost nor 31, the Norweigan(sp?) outpost, the GenInc base, the big UFO, etc.) Maybe an artic snow plower tractor-thingy that he used in the novel(alternate events leading to the end). Personally, I was thinking how cool it would be to have a campaign set around the Thing, where you played as a Military team sent in to investigate the recent loss of communication from GenInc, the Norweigan(sp?) bases, and Nor 31. Then...stuff...could...erm...happen. Yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest BratZ Posted October 9, 2002 Quote from Placebo: Hmm I don't see the point of this thread really, if people have something to show they'll show it, if you have something to show then show it, otherwise you're posting for the sake of posting which isn't good Closing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 9, 2002 Well, technically should be in A&M, because, I quote "Addons & Mods are for showing completed mods only and discussion of mod ideas". This is a legitmate thread and I see no need for it to be closed, so let the mods make up their own minds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
