[nephilim 0]

thx again

the aliens are completed but wont show them for now

i want to tease a bit hehe

as for the other stuff

yes there will be everytign in what is mentioned in the uscm technical manual

if u browse back some pages u will find a link wher u can download it

it includes different apc versions tanks diff at weapons mines

orbital reentry pods , conestoga class cruisers, nuke bombs sharp sticks (...)

i will aswell model the conestoga class cruiser 1:1 (like the sulaco or the pathna form aliens/alien3)

so ul lbe able to launch from it and walk around etc

Doh! can you release the aliens before November 29th, end of break?

I hope the aliens have a very good recognition system. The starship troopers bugs didn't, you could sneak up on them within fifty feet and cap them and that'd be the end of it. Lukily theres the hunter script.

i doubt ill get it ready taht soon...

besides i have to plan the whole colony complex etc....

cuz i dont want a realease with just some bits and pieces...

besides im curertnly lookign for another modeler

[nephilim 0]

I'll tell you story:in 2020 humans discover a way to travel in space(Im not going into sf details ) and they are starting expeditions in the cold,dark and unknown space,they place some small colonies to some distant planets and bang they find a planet with some Pilot tehnology(from the movies) and off course the xenomorphs.After this the Earth is sending a uscm detachment to protect the colonists(with Ripley onboard Sulaco).That's it,that's the story.

Nephilim I hope you'll finish the mod,I know is hard to do all the stuff by yourself and I just can't wait to see your work.Good job,I love the high quality of textures(from what I've seen on the apc),hope the other textures are same in quality.

I've been a freak with the Alien movies and I'm looking forward to kick some xeno butt(in Vasquez style).

By the way,any chance to see an praetorian??

Best of luck with the mod!

[nephilim 0]

hmm doesnt the aliens move paly in sth liek 2145 or so?

lol no the mod wont be primary about uscm grutns kicking aliens butts and vice versa u coudl play avp then...

thats why i wont do a preatorian ...

avp is poo....

but there will be drones, face huggers, dog aliens, chest bursters, and a queen

not enough?

Actually, what i said to neph was meaning WHY the marines get sent to the planet the mod is on, and WHY the aliens get there, to be quite frank the aliens are really just a distraction, well in all the theory stories me and neph chatted together

[krycek 349]

Nephilim,with drones and the queen then it's enough for me.Ah memories with those face huggers,hate so much those little buggers(had a heart attack in AvsP 1 when those critters jumped on my face ).

Well,you said the mod won't be primary focused on slug the xenos,but besides the aliens what other opposition will have??Perhaps corporate troopers?

Will you make also some civilian personell,colonists etc.??

Oh,and I think I've read somewhere here about sentry guns,do you have a working script for them to work?

KJAM,you could say the aliens are there because long time ago a Pilot ship has crashed on that planet,from what I know Pilot aliens created the xenomorphs.The marines are sent there to protect the colonists.

[KJAM 0]

But Me and Neph agree that we dont want the story to be similar to any of the films.

[krycek 349]

Well k,just thought to give you an idea.

Well whatever you guys decide, I was blown away by that video you guys released...definitely VERY atmospheric and creepy feeling.  I can't wait to explore the jungles of a distant planet.  I really don't care if your story is based on the movie or not as long as the mod provides a good atmosphere and a wide range of units for mission makers to develop their own stories and missions.   For example, I hope you guys make alien temple complexes and alien ruins.  Stuff like that would really help with the atmosphere.  

There's a ton of excellent Sci-Fi addons already out there that'll work well.  The old Tau-Beta addons (my favorite sci-fi addons for OFP) for example kicks ass and features units like that predator-like stealth alien unit that would fit perfect in a mod like yours.   I know that for myself, I'll likely be mixing what few sci-fi addons there are in OFP together.

So the more the merrier.  However still a Aliens movie based story line for your mod's missions would be fine to me.  But you could make it where its a new planet seperate from the one in the movie or something.  But please don't argue to much about it.  If you guys can't agree, either find mission makers to make missions featuring different story lines or make these missions yourself.

Anyways, I'm greatly looking forward to your mod's next release.  

Keep up the great work.

hey neph, if the aliens are done could you still release an updated pack of your last one for mission makers? because i probably will still be blasting the bugs with m16s or other weapons from the original operation flashpoint so if you could release an update that contains everything you have done up to now that would be great. or you dont really have to if you dont want to, i just would appreciate it if you did.

[nephilim 0]
