Mod News Fallout: Nevada mod for Fallout 2 gets a preliminary English release

[Kev Inkline]

Can anybody PLEASE post the real and best installation guide?

I can't into this russian installer shit, why didnt they make a english installer... how much of that am I supposed to click on ?

And then we are all surprised that Russian hackers are succesful.

Let me know when there's some batch file I can click to install this...

And you also need Fallout 2 for the mod to work. Unless you download it with a master.dat already

Official page download has a master.dat folder, 800MB, seems to be all inclusive.

The hell are you saying, mate? Fallout map editor has been out there basically since the 20th century.

Then why did nothing even half decent come out of the """community""" in all these years? Shit scripting tools?

 

[valcik]

It does start weirdly though... the beginning is good, has great atmosphere and a perfect tutorial... but then you split up... and you wake up an amnesiac 50 years later, and you say "long live the Vault!" to people you don't even remember, and "how can I help?"... it's just a bit awkward

This is what you get when you reply on fan-made content.

Wrong.

Spoiler

You wake up just a couple of months after the incident according to your medical records stored in V8 terminal. More so, you don't suffer with amnesia, since your whole personality got implanted by V8 doctor.

Because the installer's shittiness is intentional.

Because its fucking tedious to make mods with the original Fallout engine...everything has to be hand placed in the maps, the floor tiles can be lay down with simple pattern selection, that's about it. Critter creation is long and arduous, yet alone critter editing (changing heads, colours, etc - the main critters have about 50,000 frames that require individual editing).

I know nothing about the scripting because I want to stay as far as possible away from that shit (the reports say its crappy). Myself and a few dedicated lunatics are still working on the up and coming Mutants Rising Fallout mod. The mod has been in the making for 10 years, with the majority of contributors long gone. The game under took a major overhaul back in 2010, with the desire to release a great gaming experience equal to the original Fallouts.

Congratulations to the men that made Fallout: Nevada, I look forward playing the finished English translation.

Very cool art.

Isn't it a Warhammer art?

Isn't it a Warhammer art?

Did a quick search, turns out it's an original piece done for the mod.

By a guy called Heikki Kuusipalo.

 

[Diggfinger]

So can we DL the Nevada mod (English)??


EDIT: check out this link - works for anybody?

Works but it's still a 0.11 - expect some bugs to run into.

I suppose we need to install the Russian Mod and then apply this language file after, right?
Will give it a go later this week.

Critter creation is long and arduous, yet alone critter editing (changing heads, colours, etc - the main critters have about 50,000 frames that require individual editing).

Do NMA fags still edit pre-rendered character sprites by hand in MS Paint? That's absolutely retarded, it's like editing a video file frame by frame.

FFS, Van Buren has 3D models with the same basic animations as FO1/2. Just create new models based on those animations and export them to 2D sprites. It could take you a single evening to create like 20 variations of the vault dweller guy or w/e.

 

[valcik]

There's a lot of new animation sets or scenery objects on NMA rendered from new models actually. You can find new character models done by Rainman (Olympus 2207 mod author) in a span of few days in killap's Restoration Project as a part of Hero Appearance mod, or look at various excellent scenery objects by Ursa. Anyway, old sprites edited painstakingly frame by frame still rules supreme!

Also share link to that video of yours where you've recorded yourself after Grimoire got released plox.
