unoctium Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 You are not going to get this done. It is unlikely anyone will join you, and if they do, they couldn't help you. http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/45278/? Take your favorite character from the mod. Make a companion out of him. This tutorial will also get you familiar with the GECK. Fallout: Lonestar wanted to create an entire landmass the size of the Mojave, and fill it with dozens of quests, NPCs, characters, etc. They started two years ago, and haven't gotten anywhere since. Do you want to sit around for two years trying to get people to make your massive mod, or do you want to put something out there in a matter of weeks, even less, and have people impressed by what you have done? Choice is yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mishaxhi Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) And people in the Mafia usually dress like businessman. i thought that was pretty self explanatory. Well, it isn't, what exactly the "mafia" is is up in the air when 90% of factions in Fallout resemble some sort of mafia. Mafias are just criminal gangs, groups of men who don't fear authority and are willing to take the risks to get what they want. Suits are not intertwined with that, they were worn by Italian/Sicilian criminal groups in the US as they were fit for purpose at the time, I'm just wondering whether a group operating under completely different circumstances in a completely different time facing completely different challenges might opt for something else. Ignore the suits, they don't matter, if you want it blunt - this doesn't seem very well thought out at all. You're free to do as you like but if you want to be the next Project Brazil or Frontier, I would highly recommend scaling it back for now until you have something concise down. I'm very serious about this, https://docs.google.com/a/maine207south.org/document/d/1yBgvNTvLtuCUhKi4rpUNKXBbH-bkdrsMoxfFwFnMYsw/editthat is the written script so far. and i dont like it when u just ask questions that are no where near about the mod. Plus fallout is a futuristic 1950's, ratpack, Frank Sinatra, and back then EVERYONE WOULD WEAR SUITS. You linked a private doc. I'm just trying to help, you're obviously completely unwilling to take advice or shift your view on anything, and the fact that you're this quick to anger over a few simple queries tells me you're incapable of taking advice on board or being an effective communicator, both of which are absolutely required when you wish to lead a team of the size that you will need. Best of luck I guess. are u kidding, the first thing u did was asking questions that were the smallest details ever. just to put me down, then u tried to pick me up by saying that your helping. For example, i walk up to someone. "Your fat. You should work out. Just helping you out." just being a jerk. Stop being meek and perpetually offended, that's the business of teenage girls, not of supposed leaders.You've been given straight answers, you can either sit here and whine about people being honest with you or you can take the advice on board and go actually do something. Listen to what Uno said - take one small part of what you want to do, and do it really well. Then come back and showcase it. Until such a time, this mod of yours is 100% not happening. I'm sorry, it just isn't. If I wanted that to be the case, I wouldn't have bothered replying in the first place, as the outcome would've been the same. Stop with your infantile replies, open the GECK, do something. Do not return until you have something to show. I will be waiting. And these annoying questions? They're meant to promote critical thinking. The suits are just an example - why is everyone wearing them, because the guys in Scarface did? Think about it, ponder over whether it's the best approach and adapt your work based on what you come up with. Leaders must do this. Everyone wearing suits for the sake of suits seemed like a really dumb idea - I questioned you over it and all you can come up with is "it's obvious mafia guys wear suits." You have to be the absolute best in order to make a mod of this scale, your aforementioned behavior points to the contrary.

flamenx01 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 As everyone keeps saying without a proof of concept it will be hard for you to get a team together. Even mods like Project Brazil struggled to get the necessary team members which is why the second half is taking so long to release. If you get a sampler of your mod you get some modding cred and increase attention in your project. You proof of concept could be a companion of your best character or perhaps the new vegas branch of the gangsters with a few mini quests. The most important thing is to keep the mod simple. Everyone always has grand visions of giant new world spaces and all new textures and meshes but remember the most important aspect is the story (new vegas bounties is still the most popular quest mod and it has barely any new content).

I can't make a 100% guarantees but you will have a much better chance of recruiting team members if people around the nexus know you. Also you'll have more experience of how modding works so you will better be able to work out what is possible in a larger project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
