Lets try silly or funny mod ideas and requests here

I believe the reason given is that all Brahmin are hermaphroditic. Only makes, sense, one head male, one female.

 

@Frank Lee: I've seen trailers in quite a few places in the wasteland which look to be made from the bed of a pickup truck. Makes sense, as it already has working axles and wheels attached. Maybe a eight-gecko team? Ten? Shouldn't take more than that to pull one of those, as long as it's not loaded with lead, or gold, or something like that. Tranquilize them, run up, pop a modified slave collar around their neck, and Hey, Presto! you've got a cart team! Also, interesting science fact: You can move a load on the railroad rails for about 1/8 the effort it would take on PRISTINE roads. As for the pitiful excuses for roads found in the wasteland... please. It'd be more like 1/30, or less. So let's ride the rails!*

 

 

*Railcar and gecko team not included; all railroad rails property of Rail-Tec, a subsidiary of Vault-Tec, any use other than the designed purpose voids the limited thirty-three day warranty on ALL rails.

Yes that idea is wonderfully absurd. I've wondered how come more animals in the wasteland arn't domesticated in some way or another, or at least partly domesticated. Another thing I've wondered is where are the bull brahmins? Are you telling me that none of them have horns?

 

Anyways thats just food for thought, it seems like some of the wastelands species could be repurposed, like mole rats in the NCR to track things with scent/sonar.

 

Or Raven message carriers, bighorner caravans, mirelurks for something,

 

possibly a research facility mod could be made with quest and perks and animal based armor and weapons could be made from these ideas.

 

Its all for ideas sake.

 

I sure I saw the Enclave working on something like that. Oh, and I got the 'hypnotize chickens perk' as a child,

if that's any help. . .

I love the gecko team idea, maybe if people found a use for them they would stop chewing on defenseless travelers legs, and I wouldn't need to shoot the adorable things.

 

Speaking of adorable geckos, how bout a mod where you can raise your own wasteland creatures, find an egg or two, stick it in a crafted incubator, wait a in game week, and Viola!! Instant gecko buddy. I know in FO3 they had a mod that allowed you to raise mini mire lurks, maybe it could be ported.

Theres a mod like that already, however its for deathclaws, I've downloaded it but not used it yet, however maybe you could ask the author for one for geckos and could ask modders for more unique gecko types,(Mainly reskins) or even a ghoulifed gecko (Zombies!) so it could be like collecting all the rare gecko type eggs.

 

The Mod I mentioned is called Deathclaw Commander I think, its pretty popular and has an original way of implementing a deathclaw compainion. You find an egg in the quarry and feed it till it hatches then continue to raise it. Sounds good huh?

[simplywayne90]

Well it may not be completely relevant, but here is a thread discussing adding more throwable weapons, including junk and objects that realistically wouldn't be lethal (Like I doubt someones head will explode if you hit them with a teddy bear)

 

More Choices To Throwing Objects

 

Why not throw rocks at your enemies.....oh its a deathclaw. lets throw rocks at it!!!

Throwing Rocks At It

 

And since it has the possiblity of funniness and sillyness I felt they deserved a place here in the silly/fun/interest mods and mod ideas thread!

I like it!

Sounds a bit cheat mod-ish (But vanilla chainsaw already kicks some serious...)

 

The effect you mentioned? Are you suggesting the wave that glow ghouls give off? or something new?

 

And do you think the actual blades should be green or just thier tips?

 

This seems like a resonable idea since it'd mainly just need green glowy stuff

(like from the glowsticks mod/type 3 ghost mod/Tron outfit mod)

 

and the effect would probably require some scripting although I don't know how difficult that would be.

 

Oh in my next post I'm thinking of connected to a few more useful and or fun/silly mod discussions.

 

 

I was thinking something like miniature versions of the plasma grenade effects really when it flares up for critical hits. As for what should be Green, it should be the teeth on the chain.

[simplywayne90]

Try messaging the makers of the plasma sword mod and tesla sword mod (Its on Fo3 Nexus I beileve), and maybe a short message to the plasma weapons awesomefied mod maker, they may decide to make it or will recommend how to make it so you can yourself! Just make sure to share it with us when its done, it'll be cool looking.

I've noticed that a lot of people would like to include voice acting and I've noticed that there are people willing to offer thier voice but these people have trouble getting together so I'm making this thread for voice acting and those who need it,

 

If your working on a mod please post an organized description of the mod and the type of voices you need. And if there is a thread or place to discuss your specific mod, let me know and I'll make a link to your mods thread as I want this thread to only involve voice acting, not mod ideas.

 

And for those willing to voice act for others please post a description of your voice and if you see a voice you may do please message the poster, since it doesn't take long to dub a character although make sure to put some good effort into each, as apatitic readings are worse than no voice at all.

 

Heres a link to a voice acting thread I've made for working mods and potential mods,

 

Voice Acting For Modders, and Those Who Offer It.

I made a pistol that fires Nukes, called the Nuker. I find that kind of absurd and suitable for this thread.

For my next mod I plan to make "The Decapitation Beam Pistol" which fires a laser beam that cause widespread head explosions.

Not a big fan of cheat weapons honestly, especally the nuke ones, but I love the decapitation beam Idea, I find that hilarious, however recently I've been wanting to steer the thread more towards, things like humorous and sarcastic rather than absurd.

 

Like the special encounters in Fallouts 1,2, and tactics

Or The comments the npcs would make like enclave soldiers saying things like "You know, I wonder if anybody else has tried purifiying the planet. Seems like we're copying someone." (Hilter/Nazi's) joke

 

Or the hookers in Reno would say to power armored players "How do you use the bathroom?" or "I charge extra to play Dorothy tin man!"

 

And sarcastic things like that were EVERYWHERE in the game, and yet in the new ones the most sarcastic funny things is a dead Indianna Jones in a fridge.
