daStig177 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Okay, so my idol and man I always wanted to have a beer with someday, Chris Kyle, got killed yesterday, so I mourned like a soldier and did several hundred pushups and prayed. Onto the mod. I have several ideas of what could be done to pay tribute to Chris. 1. A weapon mod. The insurgents in Fallujah nicknamed Chris "Demon" because of how many of their men he killed. This could just be a unique sniper rifle, but I feel that it may need to have a unique 3D model. Also, if it is a custom weapon, it needs a custom texture that has his unit symbol (punisher skull) on it (I don't know how to edit FoNV textures with gimp, so if someone could tell me that would be nice)(Fininshed this) 2. A Boone reskin. Not much to explain here. However, the, main weapon should be changed to the custom weapon mentioned above, and the beret should probably be retextured to black with the punisher skull emblem.(need beret retex) 3. A new companion. Same ideas as above, but completely original. Ideally, he would be hanging around goodsprings saloon. In the past I have tried to make advanced companions, but I could never figure it out. I will probably need help on this one, as I want a storyline. If you could manage, at the end of the questline you should head back to goodsprings and have a drink with him in the saloon. I am fairly certain that the Gobi scout rifle's texture isn't anywhere in the data folder, so I would appreciate it if somebody could point me in the right direction! Thank you for your consideration in this mod, and I hope one of you can help me with the custom companion! If you do collab with me, I can create NPCs with desired results, as with weapon modifications. Edited February 3, 2013 by daStig177 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trilioth Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) If you do collab with me, I can create NPCs with desired results, as with weapon modifications. I can create custom companions. I just don't have the skills for 3D modeling. And my textures skills are lacking. Set up an NPC with the appearance, stats, clothing and the like and I can get him working like a vanilla companion. Check out my tutorial. There are a list of issues that I have yet to solve with companions, but I consider them minor issues. If you want the whole thing ironed out exactly like a vanilla companion, that would require editing some some of the vanilla scripts and quests to get to work, but it's doable and not beyond my skills. I just haven't tried it or tested it yet. I have all the DLCs, so that I could make sure that the entries into the other areas do as they should. I would be glad to do this to your specifications. Edit: I wasn't aware of the mod you released. If you are still looking for help on option 3 let me know.
