TF2 Skin, Mod, and/or Port Request.

[aza0]

Hello, I am new here, and this looked like the place I should go to to ask about this, so I'll post this here. I do like the 50's/60's look of the Fallout series. Another series that also has a 50's/60's theme is Team Fortress. This got me to thinking, "wouldn't it be fun to skin your main character (or the npc's/items/decor/etc) as characters or items from TF2? I do hope there is someone else out there who agrees this would be a good and/or fun idea. X-/ Of course, if this was made into a port instead of a download., you'd have to have both games in your ownership to get around legal issues. To keep things simple, the characters should just be just a basic skin and clothes (for balance reasons, simplicity, etc.). For example: Let's take the engineer, as Texas is (relatively) close to Nevada (at least when compared to Russia, Boston, France, etc. XP). To make the armor from the game fit on him. He'd have to be w/o a helmet or goggles, but still have the standard skin and clothes (as these wouldn't affect gameplay). Of course, it'd also be nice if he had the option of wearing his mechanical hand (but again, for fairness, it'd have to have the same stats as a plain hand, and would just be for looks). He would also need a Pipboy put on one of his wrists. He would also not have his starting gear/weapons (other than the standard set you normally get. IE: No frontier justice/shotgun, no blueprints for turrets, etc). As I said earlier, the skin would just be for looks. What do you, the other ppl on the forum think of this? :?

Asking for ports is a good way to get mods angry at you, as is creating duplicate topics. If someone's going to make this as original content, they will, but you'll just have to wait and see. I wouldn't hold your breath, though, as they'd be recreating content from a game with an art direction that's wildly different from this one.
