this mod is based on what people would really use and wear in a post-apocaplyptic scenario, the whole futuristic and "badass" thing is up to the Conspiracies mod to make, its all very nice and they do look cool and badass, but it's not what I'm doing.. my inspiration commes from movies like, the road, the postman and A boy and his dog..

I am going to make a few gas-masks.. but they will be used for only a few units a wasteland warrior to make him look a bit more scary and perhaps some special units for the new order.. but if you think about it how many people have gas-masks lying arround..

of course if you wan't a bit of both you can always mix the mods its all up to you what you can make of this once its out..

Well in a post apocalyptic scenario you are concerning yourself only with the survivors of the apocalypse and of their descendents, and so while not all that many people have gas mask lying around there are problaby quite a few survivors with gas masks. (that is assuming that conditions of the apocalypse or of the post apocalyptic world are of such that possesing a gas mask dramatically increases one's chances of survival) This sort of thought even be followed to its logical conclusion in that there may be some traits or items, which the apocalypse or post apocalyptic worlds' condiitons dictate are an absolute must for survival. That is that if you do not have the certain trait or item you will not be able to survive. In such a scenario everyone could have a gasmask without it being implausible.

true enough.. however it would depend heavily on where you are from.. where I'm at I have no clue where people would get gas masks...

Besides my point was more that the sugestion was to give them are more "badass" look and they are not supposed to they are supposed to look more like "barely surviving".. a few are going to get gas masks some would be lucky to find one but not many of them.. and with the amount of work I still need to do, I won't get to it for a while

Looking at the screen shots it really reminds me of fallout. I guess you got more of your inspiration from Fallout than from Stalker. Which is cool cause we already have the conspiracies mods.

About the gasmasks, I feel like giving them to maybe the most organized army would be cool, because obviously the leader would want all his men as healthy as possible, then maybe give masks to some of the "wealthier" civilians. :D

That's my thought on this.

I can't wait for these units, objects and vehicles and ofcourse Jade Groove pimped out with your stuff.

Will there be any trader type characters with pack animals or somekind of kart? That'd help add some immersion for the missions makers to take advantage of.

I thought Metro 2033 was a pretty good representation of a Post Apocalyptic Russia. Items and gear didn't seem to far fetched.

However, is see your point, this is more of a Fallen Earth feel. Can't Wait!

I just came back from vacation, it might be a bit slow with progress the next few weeks I got tons of other stuff to sort out but I'm trying my best to bring you some news here and there..

Should any of you be woundering if it works with OA then yes it does, it even seems to look a bit better but might just be me..

Doesn't remind me of Fallout at all.

Still looks pretty good.

Any ideas when you want to throw out a kind of first beta (if at all)?

OMG ... this mod is amazing.

I signed up to these forums just to let you know I am in Awe and thankful for all / any work that goes into this :)

Been looking for a while for an apocolyptic game/mod that isnt filled with zombies / mutants. This is it :D

Sadly we haven't heard of Canis for a long time in here (Last Activity: 07-29-2010 05:08 PM)

I hope that he is all right and somehow can resume the work on the mod (should it be the case that he stopped).

I was really hoping to get in on some Dev work, and offer my services, as I was going to start work on a Post-Apoc mod until I saw this.

Hope he comes back...

I've been thinking about making the two square-sectioned SMGs here

http://amodestpublication.wordpress.com/2009/05/08/loyalist-paramilitary-improvised-machine-guns/

...for a while now. If i ever do it i will set the models up in O2 and send them to you guys.

I'd possibly be down to make a mutant or two as well.

The armed civilians look totally sick but imo the weapons are too military rather than paramilitary. You can have my m1 carbine if you like... What else have i got... A smith and wesson .38... ummm... I have a winchester model 70 about 75% done too, once i'm done with my contract work i should resolve that model. I know someone who might be willing to donate an m1 garand of theirs... ehm... I'm sure i have other shit laying around which might be useful too.

To tell you the truth i CBF reading through every page to see what the actual gameplay changes are... Could they maybe be summed up in the OP? I really hope this is geared to survivalist gameplay, and if you need any advice on implementing certain survival features, in particular survival medicine, I can help you out for sure.

Oh and I know a guy who has made some very awesome civilian car models which he might be willing to donate too.

This mod is dead, as Canis Lupus doesn't have the files anymore. (FoW thread, I think he said he had a hard drive failure, I'll have to find the post)

Yes I've been away for a long time, for a lot of reasons, so if anyone really wanna know feel free to ask.. sadly one of them means that i lost all of my data from the PA mod and i can't start from the top again.. so I'll be working only on this...

Found it

I can put weapons in-game Harry though I'm not overly endowed with spare time. If you don't get any other takers maybe send something my way and I'll get it done as soon as time permits. Pretty sure I remember some pictures from you in the WIP thread and it was all too nice to see abandoned.
