Various unique addon

[cobra@pulse 0]

We are just beginning a fairly unique mission. It's a Matrix mission where the events occur before the first film...long before! Pulse Studios presents 'Assault on D1' (watch the Animatrix...)

Anyway, to get this thing done we are in need of addons:

-Futuristic buildings (using Total Annihilation mod at present). Preferably tall buildings that we can use as the Machine City.

-Faces. Morpheus or other Matrix looking characters would be nice.

-Any futuristic/Matrix style buggies.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Wow, that many views and nobody can help. I really hope somebody can sort us out with this and then you can all be playing 'Assault on D1' which will include 'Navras' and 'Neodammerung' from 'The Matrix Revolutions' soundtrack!

This is supposed to be in Addons & Mods: Discussion

No worry though, maybe someone can help you guys.

Not the OFP engine...

Moving.

I suggest doing this on the Max Payne 2 engine, the OFP engine isn't quite what you would call "appropriate" for that type of gameplay, though if you made it have more of a "war" feeling and less Neo superman stuff, then it might work.

I think what he means guys is the Battle with the Machines that led to the Darkening of the skies and the formation of the Matrix....therefore no kung fu...but infantry and APU's

ah ya that would be quite cool I remember seeing that when they had the Animatrix on Cartoon Network last month. Like the whole peace treaty then boom thing that was cool.

Yes, that's exactly what we have envisioned. Therefore, no bullet-time, no current Matrix characters etc. It just makes things more believable in the OFP world and sets up a good story aswell.

Yeh, that us what we though. So anyone got any ideas of any addons, tell us what you think because the more we know what you like the better experience you will have playing our missions.

Well... erm... I'd love to see mechs... but not if they're not walking... besides the Wanzer the Star Wars modding guys seem to have a way to animate their mechs...

[cobra@pulse 0]

Well at the moment we are using a snow island (called Frezer)

For the machines, we have the TA mod and also teh wanzer. Now our problem lies with the humans. We cannot find for love of money any addon that will fit the bill of the APU (don't forget will not look the same as in the film as is the first of there kind) and of infantry weaponary.

Please if anyone has any idea of how to help us we really need it.

Please

I have the wanzer, but its legs don't move? Are they supposed to?

Personally I agree to don't include the mechs unless you can get them to walk. Looks really strange other wise.

[cobra@pulse 0]

The Wanzer does not walk, it hovers on its four legs.

Well I suppose we could use jeeps as we where planing to have the action set in a near by Observation Point of which the humans are watching the machines from and are ordered to recon the area and the outpost gets attacked so you have to defend it. We were thinking of using the wazers as the machines as they look very much like that and are not overpowering. But for the human side we where looking at for of the jeep/mobile Infantry side of it such as fast moving jeeps and good weapon emplacements. We need the weapons if you can think of any, otherwise the MI infantry from Star Ship Troopers will be used as the wals allready are.

Any ideas?

There were "mini-gears" made that were quite cool... based on the "Heavy Gear 1" game... they packed a punch and are tough as nails... seem like a better thing to use rather than the Terminator, which is also powerful...

Well with this idea now, we can either do it two ways.

1. Your Hovercraft crashes on the surface, you surrvive and have to make it back to a safe area for pick up. This would need a futeristic weapon and some type of machine to chase you.

2. Big fight after you see D1. (before the films) Would requier vast amount of addons in mechs infantry buildings etc.

3. Defend the outpost mission where the machines attack you. Would need building addons and also something to go with the machines, human stuff would not have to be too advanced, just look it. Even in the film the APU's fire bullets.

So if anyone has any ideas, voice them. For one thing, chose the type of mission you like and then, if possible please provide the names of some addons. Preferably with links.

Thanks
