Wazdakka Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 First of all, let me introduce myself: My name is Cim Söderholm, I come from Sweden and have reached the moderate age of 21. I am successful project-leader and plot-writer for independent games and also do some voice-acting for those same games. I can tell you right now that computers and I do not get along, which is why I suck at modding and even more so at 3D-creation. Which is why I come to you here in the Fallout Nexus Forum. I have long sought a way to express my plots in a more advanced manner (i.e. for once I would like to stand behind fully rendered 3D instead of shambling and awkward heaps of polygons) and when I recently bought Fallout 3 I was surprised to see that it used the same motor as TES: Oblivion. So I thought "Wow, they should make a Nexus for it like with Oblivion". Had I waited with this statement and instead sought it out through Google as I did afterwards, I would have saved myself the trouble of looking lika a complete moron infront of my friends. I looked around the Nexus and found ALOT of mastercrafted Warhammer 40k mods. An idea hatched after just a moment of rincing the old headgears. However, as I mentioned above, I am no good with computers. So now I am doing an inquiry to see how many would be interested in a total 40k convertion of Fallout 3 (that is replacing armors, weapons, some actors and models and the main quest). It will be alot of work, I am sure, but some of you I know are very dedicated to your work. If you are interested in any of the following or just have comments about this idea (after all, this isn't Youtube, so I will hopefully be saved of some miandering ranting and non considered bashing) please post here or PM me (although an open discussion is perfered). As I see it I will need at least the following to realize this minor dream of my life: - 3D-designer and animator- Assistant plot-writers- Programmers (I think it sounds more professional than modders =p)- General experts of the field- A handful of voice-actors (about ten should do since Betheseda seems to use about four or five of them |=p)- And of course, comments and ideas And before you ask, yes, I have considered asking cerberos008 for permission to use his Space Marine armors, however first I would like to see if anyone at all is inerested in this project. Humbly: Cim Söderholm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxPkRaperxX Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Sounds interesting but I do not think I would be able to do this. Although I think I could make some models once I get the basic grasp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osobox22 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Hello! I JUST signed up here on the forums. I have recently become obsessed with fallout 3 seeing as how I have so much free time after graduating from college (can't find a job!). I am actually going back for grad school in the fall! I have experience with Maya and photoshop and I will be looking to pick up fallout 3 for the pc (i borrowed it from my brother on the 360). I also play the tabletop Warhammer 40k (1500 point tau army) and love reading the 40k novels. I am actually tracking Vigil Studios (currently working on a game called Darksiders) who have a Warhammer 40k MMO planned for their next project. After looking at some of the 40k mods here, my jaw just dropped and i instantly fell in love with the idea of a 40k quest line or world within fallout 3. I can help as a 3D artist as well as do my own textures though i have never animated before (i am more environments and props). I can wrap my head around some code, at the least i can read code but as far as creating my own, i am still learning :) I am very familiar with the Warhammer 40k universe and can help with voice acting though i have no professional experience voice acting ( i can do a killer meatwad from Aqua Teen Hunger Force!).

Wazdakka Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 I am glad I have cought your attention. It is nice when you can throw out a bottle in the ocean and someone likeminded picks it up. I'll PM you my MSN so that we can do some basic planning sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazdakka Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Aaaw... And here I thought I might be bringing something new... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callighan Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Perhaps you can help?It's better to see two groups working together to achieve the same goal rather than have them work alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazdakka Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Yeah, guess that would be the right course of action. Question is if they have any use of a plot-writer/voice actor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eleglas Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Well that was the most... formal request I have seen. Anyway, this has been requested a number of times, its only recently we've been getting stuff different from space marines, the Tau are popular now. Still, a total convertion is a long way off, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valgaror Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I'm pretty new both to Fallout and to modding in general- haven't done much so far, so I couldn't be much help, but would like to express complete support of this- it sounds amazing.
