AllanOcelot Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 IMPORTANT NOTICE: - I realise that the engine is the same as oblivion and F03, you may feel that these tutorials get the job done, HOWEVER, I myself know form personal experience a lot of these tutorials stray too far from subject matter, are not clear enoug or simply do not relate to the task we are trying to complete. - As your mother always told you, if you donthave anything nice to say, dont say it. CALLING ALL NEW VEGAS MODDERS. We all need to start off somewhere, and that somewhere is usually with a video that inspires us, it makes us go `I want to do that,' Nothing is stopping anyone in the world from becomming a modder, nothing but knowledge. You see, the world of modding can look daunting to someone who has not worked with the game before, or even modded before. Therefore im starting a community project to make some new vegas tutorials. I shall be starting with a COMPLETE blender to Fallout new vegas of static objects. Covering - very basic blend functions ( there are enough blender tuts online) Covering - uv mapping Covering - nifskope 101 - all the noob needs to know. Covering - in geck to in game. These videos will be done over the next couple of days ( my new microphone shall be here saturday I belive) However.... I can only model static objects at the moment ( walls, swords, armour ect ) I DO NOT HAVE THE SKILLS TO MAKE AN ENTIRE TUTORIAL SERIS. So please, if you can make a tutorial ( video or image) explaining in detail what needs to be done for your subject I shall repay you tenfold. ( I will pay for a months membership for a tutorial that teachs me personally something useful) here is a list that I feel we need making; ( feel free to take up one of the subjects and post your own tutorial below) - Animation - from blender to new vegas. ( not to cover blender basics ) - Making good textures ( to include normal maps, spec maps, ect - either gimp or photoshop) - Armour and Connecting to bones. (needs to be VERY basic - e.g making a cube and attaching it to a bone, just to get it in game) - Weapons - Again, very basic..... taking A rifle - replacing the barrel and stock with a custom mesh.... All of these need to be very basic, nothign that goes into detail about blender, I dont think an animation tutorial that explains uv mapping is helpful. How to get your months membership: - I must be able to follow your steps and get the tutorial fully working - e.g - I must be able to get a cube from blender to appear as an armour in game. Thats it - I shall send the money via paypal and you can happily buy yourself membership....or a coffee...... - this is a rough draft, me and my other half are about to watch some t.v - so Ill re-type this tommorow.....please, for the love of god, share your knowledge so others may learn!

simplywayne90 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I agree that New Vegas needs tutorials specifically meant for it. However I did make a thread with links to okay tutorials that can be used in Fallout, and lately people have been making tutorails and adding to the group.

joefoxx082 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hey if you're interested, I can share how I make the animations in my mod Weapon Animation Replacers. The only problem is I use 3dsmax, and most folks use blender, so I'm not sure how much I can contribute, but the "Nifskope" side of animating I can definitely explain in detail.

AllanOcelot Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 Any help would be great, Im sure there are lots of 3dmax users who are upset about the lack of 3dmax content. Id therefore love to see it, and as you say, the nifskope animating would come in really handy also! Im about to start work on my Blender To New Vegas Video now. My new microphone has not arrived so I cannot promise top quality, but I can complete the process I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
