Syntax1985 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 im really up for this idea, BUT: problems: , every time a new modders wants to add his/her merchant, a new version would have to be released, that's alot of versions, why not let modders place they're own versions with they're NPCS? - defeats the point, it will cause conflicts. Possible solution : nip it in the but from the 1st release, make set merchants, that all modder share, i.e a armour merchant, a clothing merchant, a weapon merchant etc. This also adds the benefit for the player, as he wont have to filter though 20 + merchants to get his/her new armour, they simply go to the armour merchant. making a tidier much more organised venue. It also adds the benefit to the overall quality of the building, as with so few npcs compared, ( your looking at 10/12 max ), this fixes the issue for voice acting, as it would be no where near as demanding. ================ So what does this leave? A building that is full of npcs, each selling player made mods. there is a much bigger chance to have voice acting for these npcs. ANY modder can then add his/her mods to those merchants. the building is better for the player, its nice small and organised, easy to get your mods. The community will report conflicts to the modders themselves through the comment system, therefore leaving the modder to solve it. this actually leaves your building open to 1000's of modders, each adding they're content. where as the original plan leaves it for what ? 30 modders max? maybe 100 if you want to be silly? ================= Just thought id add my input and ideas. and if you need any help with this feel free to ask, this sounds like something id like to help out with :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaysus Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 there would be no need for a new version... every modder has his npc... this npc is associated with ai packages, quests, and the vendor lvl listsif a modder now releases his new awesome gun he just loads the main mod his latest personal mod, changes the lootlist of the merchant and gives him the gun, saves under a new mod... users load the main mod and the seperate or bundled "addons" of the individual modders updated versions of the main mod will try to keep the former loot lists ids intact to keep downgrade compatibility also the mod is not thought to be a mass market store... its thought for some really good modders to have a small tribute hometown were players can also buy the items... i wouldnt object tho if masses of freelance modders would build their shacks and tents around the harbour caravansery enclaveits more or less a place were modders can do what they want whilst having a base from where to operate, try things, create quests, a starting point... and a massive online role modding playing adventure...make a nice quest? sure... have a new gun? just sell it... and so on... and with the collaboration of the modders who have yet signed i think somin exciting can come truesome "god modders" are still needed tho... people who create non item mods... for quests, scripts, landscape and such things... ("god" like in "not visible... maybe as hidden characters -computers, brooms, cats- but not necessarily with a shop) whats needed atm: an indian bike model, a cocktail glass with a colorful umbrella model, a ganja plant model, a riding/driving script, a yacht model, a fishermansship model, a palm tree model... someone feasible in cs world creation, marker, nodes, paths and the like... a facegen master Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferroequine Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 The Submarine is a neat idea, however I know I haven't gotten around to looking in game yet but is the DC Union Station modeled in the game? D.C. Union Station That would give a large building perfect to have the interior converted into a camp/shelter. Maybe there is another landmark in the DC area that can be reused (or recreated) for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntax1985 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 well then i don't think your really building a common wealth of moders, more of a sanctuary for a few moders you see fit. its still an ok idea. === Best of luck with it tho, im going to get to work on my idea.
