sumoftwosins Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I've noticed that some of the highest downloaded mods in the file section are nudity related. I might just be different and hell it might just be my age. I do recall when I was like 15 having a mod for Doom that had the walls re textured with pictures of tits... and sure I thought it was cool. So what is the big deal and the need for naked people in games? They do have software specifically for that. Hell I've seen some requests for real sex and things like. I can understand the game needing to close to real and everyone should get laid, but I don't want to play a game that is too real. What I mean by that is I don't see the "thrill" in watching my character take a crap or anything else for that matter. Now I don't knock anyone who wants these mods or makes these mods. But I could see a better use of time. It's like what Jerry Seinfeld said... we have scientists working on seedless watermelons when we have things like cancer. Sorry, just needed to take a break from my mod and rant a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
343guiltymc Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Fallout 3 is a game meant for mature people, it's rated M...Besides nudity and sex actually fits in this world that has slavery and rape in it. So it might not be as much for the fact that gamers are perverts as much it is for the fact of adding immersion to the world. Though I do agree that some of the clothing and armormods are outrageous.

Rekicker Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 *snip*Now I don't knock anyone who wants these mods or makes these mods. But I could see a better use of time. It's like what Jerry Seinfeld said... we have scientists working on seedless watermelons when we have things like cancer. *snip* Other modders could use their time better? Well, from your point of view, that's fair enough. However, if it's something they want to do, then they are using their time appropriately, aren't they? What better use of time than to use your time as you see fit, especially when the action being judged is a hobby? We'd all love to see certain mods: vehicles, holsters, iron-sights, and more weapons/armors to name a few. However, modding requires motivation, and a lot of modders find their motivation in their pants. Nothing wrong with that, as far as I see it, because they are sure to make someone of similar interests happy. You admitted yourself that, in years past, you thought "tits on a wall" were pretty cool. There's a prime example of a modder using his/her more primal urges to motivate progress in their chosen hobby. Perhaps it doesn't quality as productive in the opinion of many people but it is still work that is done in the pursuit of enjoyment and providing enjoyment to others. That's all modders do, basically. So, to wrap it up: I'm picking up what you're putting down, mate. I just don't agree with it because everyone should be free to do whatever they want as long as it doesn't interfere with anyone else's right to do whatever they want.

russiausa94 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 And from one player's perspective: I dislike super-glued underwearThis here is key.This game was created specificly to enroll players through realism of what Bethena's creaters thought D.C. would look like after a nuclear war.Realism isn't super glued underwear and "almost getting there" moments. Realism isnt blacking out the sex you paid for in megaton. Its not waking up next to your partner the next day not knowing what even happened. Maybe she came in 2 minutes ago and partially undressed.If you wanted a game that wasn't realistic and as cut throat as fallout 3 then why did you buy it. Realism today is sex, violence, making money, living life to how we can, and i'll be damned if that changes on a place with half the enforced rules as real life... But thats my personal opinion, there are (oddly enough) children playing this game, and fathers and mothers don't want their kiddies coming to ask for juice while they're getting misty with Nova so...

sumoftwosins Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Well it was meant as a joke, as did Jerry Seinfeld. I don't care if someone makes the mod or people use the mod, I am just curious of the desire. Say it is for humor, I can run with that. Say it is for making the game more realistic, why only naked women? It is all personal preference and as stated, just needed to rant about something. I figured with 2000+ downloads for naked women, someone would have some thing to say. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russiausa94 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Well it gives modders something to look at instead of say, building a house.And it gives the players something to look at bounce around.No one wants to see a dollar and two nickles bounce around... unless your into that of course :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skree000 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 It was always in the back of my mind too. Sure nude mods were cool for Lara Croft in Tombraider 1 & 2 era, yeah baby! LOL I have nothing against nude mods either btw... but I too am just curious as to whether or not people actually *Play* the games with nude mods enabled, or just... umm *play*... Btw stay tuned for my future custom armor mods which will more than likely resemble something closer to that of Heavy Metal or Simon Bisley style outfits wooo :)(but atleast they will be functional! hehe) and PS. having nude OPTIONS are good, but overwriting existing outfits (replacing them permanently) with nude skins is... okay i guess, but adding the option of having unique nudity... now thats much different and what I consider more useful!!! :) (ones that are unique and dont overwrite any existing content) Bottom line... new content = good. Overwriting existing content = meh *unless really well done and logical* hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overwriting existing content = meh *unless really well done and logical* hehe i do play (the game) It just kind of irked me abit when I'd be taking the gear from a dead raider & suddenly they have on more clothes than before I touched the body. I have tried to use the GECK to try Sungos Vault girl suits into extra clothing/armor instead straight replacers . Would Nifskope help there?

Skree000 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Nifskope is a utility that allows you to swap textured models in and out of the game.... as far as what assets replace/overwrite others, that would be a GECK-dependant change. With the GECK it would just be a matter of duplicating any suits that 'overwrite' existing suits, then saving them out as a New unique suit.
