ozziefire Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 As modding newb, one thing I've noticed is there's a lot of cool mods out there in clothes, armor, weapons etc., one I found was the expanded gunnrunners mod which is a cool idea. What if someone were to create a small department store chain like VegasMart and put one in most of the major towns for other modders to have a common place to leave mod boxes, it could have store isles for different items like food, weapons, hats, etc. I guess the biggest problem may be 2 modders leaving a box in the same place on the same shelf.

PaladinRider Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 The biggest problem would be getting mods to leave their mod content relying on another mod's building. If you want the mods content you HAVE to download the vegasmart mod. Not many people would be keen on that. However I like the vegasmart idea itself. There should be a chain of some wort or at least a kiosk in each town under the same name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSaintJamez Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Thats a good idea, And actually i think having a department store that sells mods would be quite nice, it would eliminate having to look around for gun mods or armor/cloth mods.

ozziefire Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 I guess you could even make the mod shareware, the pixels are free, if done right it would be pretty popular anyway, I doubt it would clash with too many other mods, so other modders using it included it with their packs or had a seperate Non-VegasMart download. If the Vegas marts were identical and their rotations & co-ordinates were all noted then it would be easier for modders to put their stuff in the same place on the same shelf in each store. It's also possible the concept could be expanded to mini-malls with seperate clothing, guns, food, hair dressers, repair & tech shops and a couple of spares for good measure.

Moraelin Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Well, the only problem that comes to mind is that, to be properly usable from different .esp files made in the GECK, it would have to be an .esm. Not that that's a big problem, mind you, but it is something to have in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSaintJamez Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I have a lot of experience doing building mods, ill start working on this. If someone else could make some sort of sign that would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSaintJamez Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I have a lot of experience doing building mods, ill start working on this. If someone else could make some sort of sign that would be great! Ok so here is the basic look, im leaving a lot of space So that many mods can fit in the building. Now its not quite done yet. But I was even thinking of making a Store Clerk just for ambiance. Now if there comes a point at which there need to be more room, all i would need to do is a simple update. What do you think? http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/Larnada/ScreenShot16.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end first in best dressed I imagine, it will be cool to find all the future stuff in one place, I've been a mod hog, I don't know where half of them are inworld yet but they're there somewhere :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSaintJamez Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I was thinking ModMart, but either way what ever it is called it will look nice. As an added bonus i will be adding my custom fedoras into the mod just for starters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfg10k17 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I think it would be better to make a big-as* mall-like building than make separate areas, but leave them empty. Like a post-apocaliptic super duper mart for everything. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
