Well, again, we'll have to wait until he gets back. We were working on getting some custom furniture models made as well for the different buildings and stuff, to make them unique from the rest of the Fallout NV world.

This is a good idea. Although we may not end up using a vertibird, I do like the idea of having some sort of "ultimate" weapon appear and knock everything out of order. I actually really like this idea, could justify a full-out civil war in the area. We might be, although I think Stupideye was intent on being the only GECK operator on the team. We'll have to wait until he's back from vacation. Although.. Do you know how to do exteriors?

Right now, we haven't actually started on the NPC packages. We figured we'd wait until we can get the exterior working 100%, and then we can start doing the packages and implementing questlines and dialogue. However, Stupideye is out on vacation at the moment, so the GECK-related stuff is on another short hiatus. I've been trying to reach Disaster (our modeler) as well, but haven't been able to get a reply. But, I'm still working on the more media-related stuff right now, some advertisements and the like. I'm tempted to post some stuff but I'd like to keep most of it under wraps until release, as to avoid ruining the novelty and the like. I'll definitely still post things in the near future, though. Maybe some redone weapon textures or something. In the meantime, keep the suggestions coming, and tell your friends! You guys are the sole reason we're developing the mod, (Well, also because it's been pretty fun!) and we could use all the ideas we can get!

Well, that'd be up to the player, of course. There's multiple questlines planned, so the player gets the option to either support the UCCR, or to help the opposing factions. Of course, there'll be some side missions that don't really play into the "bigger picture" as well.

Haha, thanks, tovariche! Always appreciate the comments. :)

Maybe, although I'm not sure how canon it'd be. We're still working on the script and such right now though, so if you've got ideas, feel free to toss them at us.

Alright, it's been a long-ass time since we've posted anything about the mod, and truth be told, development has taken a really long break. But, we're back on full-time development (outside of school and a couple other little side projects), and I just dropped by to assure you guys; we're not dead. http://filesmelt.com/dl/uccr1.jpg We also just recently started up a moddb page, and we'll likely be using that to post more frequent updates on the mod, but we'll still occasionally stop by here. So don't forget to watch us on moddb! http://www.moddb.com/mods/united-carson-communist-republic We could definitely use a translator, although we'd like to keep the text and phrases understandable for the majority of gamers, which for the most part are exclusively anglophones. We might release a seperate texture pack which uses actual cyrillic text for the posters and such though, for those that understand Russian or want the added immersion.

That's a pretty good idea. I'll pitch the idea to Stupideye when he comes on, and we'll see how it goes. I do like the idea though, thanks for bringing it up. Haha, yeah, we're hopefully going to get more soviet-esque gear for the mod, maybe an Ushanka, tank helmet, stalnoy shlyem (SSh-39 helmet), and stuff like that to give the people that "Red Army" look.

Spasibo, tovariche! It's good to see people still interested in the mod, makes all the work worthwhile. Unfortunately, it'll still be a while yet until the mod is available for download, bur rest assured, we're still working on it.

.. Really? I'm down with it as well, providing that we can get the manpower to do this in a reasonable window. I think as of right now, Stupideye is the only one actually doing stuff within the GECK.

This would be pretty awesome, although we'd need more people in our team before we can commit to doing something as big as creating a new landscape, assuming that's what you're suggesting. I had an idea of doing something like this, from that one DLC for Fallout 3, Point Lookout. I wanted to add a train or something that you'd have to buy a ticket to get on, or do a small quest, which would take you to the "new" land. This requires a LOT of work though, and we're not sure if we really want to commit to something that large, when our team is still pretty small. An airship would definitely be a badass way to get there though.

Oh also, Stupideye hasn't mentioned it, but we decided to change the name of our mod and town-name from RNC (Republic of New Carson), to the UCCR (United Carson Communist Republic), for multiple reasons I won't bother to mention here. Hopefully Disaster will let me publish what he's modeled for us so far. I'm amazed at the quality of his work so far, and I've no doubt everyone else will be too. A couple more propaganda posters are coming soon, comrades! Just need to.. finish them.

It's like how North Korea calls themselves the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea", when actually they're a totalitarian Stalinist dictatorship.

That's tempting, but I appreciate your input too much. Maybe after the mod is done, I'll track you down for that.

A small update, just another poster. This one is still WIP, but I figured I should post something or else you guys might think we're dead. http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/4194/uccrstandunited.jpg
