ray243 11 Posted August 29, 2009 I watched the movie District 9, and it can be interesting if there is a mod based on the movie. Since Arma 2 is big enough for a large District, I find that Arma 2 would be an Ideal game for District 9. It would be interesting to see the aliens fighting against the MNU. What do you people think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cm 0 Posted August 29, 2009 Good movie, but i don't really think this would go well with arma. maybe when AO comes out and we have a nice sandy map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AnimalMother92 10 Posted August 29, 2009 yeah funny that you mentioned this. i just watched the movie and i guess ive been playing too much arma because when i saw the MNU troops i thought "hey they would look cool in arma 2!". lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hboybowen 10 Posted August 29, 2009 its possible though i havent seen it yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted August 29, 2009 I would like to see District 9 like shanties and slums densely packed together with lots of obstacles (garbage and such) in ArmA2 for some fun CQB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted August 29, 2009 Without making a new skeleton or new animations, the mnu are certainly possible, the aliens and alien weapons are possible to do in a limited way... not sure about the mechs, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nicolasroger 11 Posted August 30, 2009 yeah that movie kicked ass. those mnu trucks would look really cool ingame Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steakslim 1 Posted August 30, 2009 lol just imagine those white trucks and gear with the amount of bloom ArmA2 already cranks out on white/bright colored objects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grub 10 Posted August 31, 2009 Someone needs to start this ASAP, it would be well received me thinks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted August 31, 2009 i thought was what u meant my bad I don't know what's possible in the ArmA 2 engine. I've seen mechs in the OFP engine and they looked... well, let's put it in a non judgemental way: It looked like they were well outside of the engine's ability to animate.

Halochief89 0 Posted August 31, 2009 Yes! a district 9 mod would be pretty awesome to see in arma 2. Prawns would be the only concern with skeletons and animations. But the new weapons would be amazing to have fun with especially the prawn weapons which we would have trouble with since its suppose to be dna based so humans shouldn't use them but.... oh well.

Thrash 0 Posted September 1, 2009 i may be able to get the 3d files of the models/weapons etc used in the movie. I'll let you know if i can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the new weapons would be amazing to have fun with especially the prawn weapons which we would have trouble with since its suppose to be dna based so humans shouldn't use them but.... oh well. I'm pretty sure you could use the ArmA 2 skeleton in clever ways to fake the prawns. Their ankle joint (their tib/fib bone and their tarsal bones, or whatever passes for those) would just be bound to the knee joint and would not be able to articulate. Their legs would move as if they had a regular human leg, and they would animate using the regular soldier animations, of course. I found the prawns to be quite expressive in the movie, though, and the ArmA 2 facial rig would not be appropriate for the Prawn face. It's a shame because they had a lot of character in the film. I really liked the Prawns. I thought that they were a triumph of design. They looked cool and their faces appeared quite alien but they were expressive and sympathetic characters.

chammy 7 Posted September 3, 2009 Now that you mention D9, I hope something like BAS's Congo or whatever that one mod for OFP is but I forgot the name, something of a South African conflict would be a great mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoccoDW 10 Posted September 3, 2009 Now that you mention D9, I hope something like BAS's Congo or whatever that one mod for OFP is but I forgot the name, something of a South African conflict would be a great mod. its called the Bushwar mod. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roe-31stMEU- 10 Posted September 4, 2009 I just watched D9 last night, GREAT movie! I would love to see this in ArmA2. Hope someone does it..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stemack 10 Posted September 4, 2009 same as Roe, this would make a fantastic mod for arma 2 IF it can be done with the tools availible and if the engine permits. Offtopic: Prawn better come back in 3 years! lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
