Hybrid Deathclaw Race

Saw this on DA and would love to play one on New Vegas or Fallout 3

Little bit of a necropost, but I did some work on a hybrid, vid below;

And had a bit of a back story for a deathclaw hybrid companion, it involved getting a deathclaw tape and a human tape in OWBs gene splicing center (X- :cool:. But I'm guessing your interested in the hybrid as a player race?

Most of the work is done, just requires some custom race tweaks (skin, eyes etc). The texture for the skin would use the same process I used to make the deathclaw dusters in gimp. Anyway if you have any ideas for back history etc post em, it might get me interested enough to complete the project.

Created by Big Mountain and the Enclave as an attempt at a less defective super soldier. After the Great War, the Enclave attempted to create some of these hybrids, but instead came up with the deathclaw mind control device from Fallout 2 and the "For the Enclave" mod (Link here: http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/39531/? ). The hybrid project was therefore abandoned and the few created escaped and hid in Big Mountain. 200 years later, there are few that have ventured to the Mojave, and the few that are there are accepted, but the New California Republic and various sheriffs are keeping an eye on them. They normally get given the dangerous jobs, such as couriers, caravaneers/guards and some take up illegal jobs such as drug dealers and drug runners. Caesar's Legion and the Brotherhood of Steel know their value as soldiers, but give them a hard time. Boomers have had no contact with them as they wall themselves in, and the Great Khans have a few elites of the hybrid race.

 

 

That is some backstory I created. Feel free to reject it or change parts if it feels necessary.

Oh and if you want to reference X 8 type it as I have done, or it will turn into an emoji.

I would help on the modding side of tings, but I have no idea how.

Found out how to change eyes in the GECK so I might be able to help a bit there.

No, it's just because it was in parenthesis, as my follow up post illustrated;

 

Also the gene center is X-8, the board software misinterpreted it as a emoji.

It doesn't have to do with the dash, as you can see in my post above.

Yep, the

That's OK I'm really just looking for ideas, I think I have a basic understanding of how to perform the actual mechanics of the mod. Although I haven't worked with custom races much, there's a fair amount of info available on them, and I think the change race menu has a work around now that eliminates some of the problematic issues that used to plague hte command.

I think it would be better to use the X-8 splicing as it's already lore, and provides a pretty easy method of combining two very dissimilar critters. It's very easy for creating a NPC (you found a deathclaw tape, you found a human tape, ya put em in and bam), but it may be a bit more challenging for changing the player race since the player has to be in the chamber and normally s/he is at the control console.

But maybe a malfunction when the player enters the chamber can start the process.

Ok. Good idea.

Could have it so the deathclaw human gene splicing is a button and when you go to the gene splicing area a small explosion happens ( because the doctors say how facilities sometimes have small explosions). During the explosion, a book or something hits the button, causing the process.
