Title: Global Update Thread
Post by: Cobra {sfx} on October 10, 2005, 11:07:20 AM
I dont think people realise what the potential for such an update implies just yet, if people want new things in the game then yes they need an update of some kind hence the idea to make one, sure its a project that relies on people wanting to download it and im hoping a lot of peeps would want an update - new models to play with, maps/ updates/fixes etc etc, if EA released such a patch peeps would probably download it yes? - well they arent going to be so i think we need to take hold of the reins and start doing these things ourselves.

   

   (Might even help to keep it alive more)

   

   Some stuff ive converted to AA ...

   

   (Vehicles)

   

   PanzerWerfer

   Glider

   B17 + P51 Aircraft (could do with new skins)

   AB-41 Italian Scout Car

   UK Churchill tank

   Drivable Half-Track

   

   And a load of other models

   

   Ill keep converting them, be nice for peeps to tell me any they might want brought over too.

Hey Cobra, I think this is a great idea. In fact we as a clan have been waiting (FOREVER) for the reloaded crew to get there update out... check out http://www.mohaa-reloaded.com/ it is simular to what you are talking about. If it is really kewl, people will download it!!! I think you all should work with reloaded crew.... or do something like they are attempting to do. Improve/Fix all the stock MP maps, add in some really nice custom MP maps (for a few fresh new maps) Canal is an awesome map!!

   

   And then also add in the mods as well. Admin Pro-with the extra game play mods, maybe even see if you could include mefy's game play mods as well. A medic mod, new weapons skins, and player skins, fresh new look to maps, like they did in MOH New Light mod. Put all these mods together into one release and you could have an awesome new MOHAA!!

   

   Great Idea!

Its not worth us doing the fixes that Reloaded are already doing/have done, Elgan suggested we do it as a similar type patch to theirs (or like peeps are suggesting - hook up with what they are doing and contribute more) - keep the ideas coming :)

   

   A list for us to work from would help, what do peeps want? Does anyone else want to help contribute something?

Here is something that I would like to see. You are currently working on converting all of the SP maps.

   

   Is it possible to have the storyline play out across maps??? You are currently putting in stages objectives that advance spawns and such of each map. Can you take that further and have it so as allies push thru the map and make the last objective it causes the map to switch to the next map???

   

   Of course if axis push allies back and make an objective the map would switch back.  

   

   For example (lets use the m4l0, m4l1, m4l2 and m4l3 SP maps)

   

   When Allies meet the last objective in m4l0 a nice little movie plays and triggers a map change to m4l1. m4l1 loads and if the axis push to the start of the map and meet the objective to push allies back another movie plays and triggers the map to switch back to m4l0. But if allies keep advancing and completing objectives the last objective in m4l1 triggers a movie and triggers the next map to load, m4l2... and so on. I think it would be really kewl... not sure if it would work on a server... but I would love to try it out. Set it up without a time limit and see if allies can actually get thru a series of maps...and have the last map trigger the 1st map to load and start it all over again.

   

   Just a thought....

   

   I am not the greatest scripter, but if you need some to do some basic stuff and learn along the way I would be willing to help when I can.

i think that's a cool idea there m8...i belive it is possible to switch maps with allies win/axis win etc. I think it would also be nice to have the flyable planes cockpits again. They were nice..i miss them:(I would also like to post some good screenshots from another game for anyone who would be willing to maybye model some good cockpits..but I have to see if anyone is willing to do that.  Either way I think it's a good idea there as it would really make the game more fun.

   

   EDIT: one problem: what happens if the axis win all the maps back to m4l0?

That sounds like the shock and awe project which is currently underway but not always using original things.

   Well didn't think it all the way threw... but maybe another cool movie and then the map/campaign just starts over again.
