KorX Modding. - GBA Server

LOL ur funneh bor

I noticed that the golden blaster that I previously submitted is a little bright.
Hopefully this will fix the problem...
A screen shot of the new modified one:

A download link:
The Blaster

Looks like sandstone now. Not really too golden.

...King...here is a suggestion...on the part of the gun that is shaded...leave it a dull gold...but on the parts that are brighter...make it a shinnier gold (it will look more real that way)

Hey, Update on the colorfull alien structures. Make sure to give some feed back about how they look, even if you don't like something.


What was modded:
The Overmind
The Trapper
The Hive
The Barricade
I know some of you were not liking the overmind. But I kept it this time cause i thought it looks awesome. If you could, post why you don't like the overmind.
The trapper looks like a friggin beast to me right now. But if there are complaints, i can change it.
The Hive still needs some work. I think I'm gonna just take a chance and see what the hive will look like when the things holding the beehive are black, along with that little circle thing on top of the hive.
Please give me more feedback.
Thanks Shadow for the tip on the blaster, i'm gonna get right on that!
Thanks lots for the feed back once more.
See you guys on tremulous.

once a final mod has been decided, it will be immediately put on the server.

This is an alternate blaster. Tell me if you would like this one instead. It can get shiny, but for the most part its
OK.

The Light Golden Blaster Thats More Light And Golden Than The Last One

I like it...now one last suggestion...add some icons and sigils...like a granger with a tequila glass or a falcon...something to make it look militaryish

Untill me or Shadow find the file with the descriptions for all the weapons and aliens, we have hit another dead end.

I wish I could help! tomorrow im going to get the programs downloaded and start helping look to, and if I find, then ill be sure to let you know! :) happy hunting

So far its not in the KorX repo or the KorX tarballs you can get...

I hate having to search for stuff...

keep up the spam guys, cleaned up forum. (more spam will result in a warning, then a ban)

*Update*
This time I decided to just take a screenie with them all.
Anyways, I feel that the buildings are pretty good now. I even like the hive! (That's a first)
Anyways, the screen shot of the mods comes first:



*NOTE: The Overmind, Trapper, and Barricade are unchanged, and are not needed to be downloaded since Hovel already has the files.*

Links To the downloads:
The Overmind
The Trapper
The Barricade
*Whats needed*
The Blaster
The Hive

Hopefully these can be uploaded to the server once Hovel fixes his problems with the Game Qvm.
I'm sure that you will agree with me that this is gonna be a great mod for tremulous!
With such a friendly, helpful, and funny community, I'm proud to say that I did a mod for GBA!
*Gives love to all*

I hate to be "That guy", but I don't really like the mods. The MD was good, because it was a whole new model. And the first set of changes (the hints in color on the RC, the CK, the Xael shot, and other minor things) was cool. It's just too flamboyant in my opinion. There's a reason the OM isn't green in Tremulous, because it's stupid. Slapping GBA sloppily and changing the coloration is hardly a real mod.

Then lets call it an "Awesomification". (A word with the root awesome, that means to make something awesome, respectively.)
Also I think the om is pretty cool man. When making this mod I decided on green in the first place for several reasons.
1: I thought, how does the overmind get it's energy, well it just kinda sits there uselessly most of the game so it's kinda like a plant. Why not get it's energy from what plants get theirs from? So it's green because the green pigment is the best way to capture light. I made it dark green, well because it looks better that way.
2: Grangers are green, and grangers are awesome so green om ftw.
3: I happen to like the color green.
To name a few.
I mean seriosly? WTF is wrong with a green om anyways? It's just as noticeable as any other overmind.
Also I don't know how to model.... So yeah.... >=P
(I would also like to say that I live in America. Where things are naturally flamboyant, or whatever you want to call it, so i guess that might be why it looks fine to me.)

It's like covering a building in two way mirrors (for those outside America, yes people do this). It looks cool, it is just a noticeable as any other huge building, and there's nothing wrong with shiny things. It's just stupid and pointless. Distracting too. Maybe if it was REALLY well done (better flowing colors and such), it could be cool.

And the green OM was just an example, most of the skin edits aren't really that great.

I think covering a building in two-way mirrors would look cool. Instead of an ugly building you can see the landscape. People inside can see the same thing, they can see outside into the city. A building covered in two-way mirrors is a brilliant idea. I'm glad that it's been implemented into the world, and it's definitely not stupid. Maybe distracting, but that's the thing about art, if it doesn't make you notice it, then It won't be considered good. Personally, when I first joined a korx server I was amazed at how great everything was. I loved mods such as the ridiculous mod, and the fun mod, because they are something that I could appreciate. I hope it will be the same with all the people who join our server. I hope they can play, then stop and look at the modifications. I hope that they can appreciate what we did. I hope that they can look at out mod, and say, "Boy that looks cool!" Ductape, I think maybe me and you are two entirely different people. I see the glass half full. What do you see?

The glass is twice as large as necessary.
And the mirror buildings piss off drivers a certain times of the day. Sun+mirror+drivers=blinded drivers. And, like fun mods, there are places where they belong. Away from roads, like fun mods belong on servers like R|Funserver|CZ, that have mods for that purpose. And it is fun, like the trampoline (an alien buildable there), fun but not for a real server.

Ductape. Your saying that my mods are unnecessary? They are. They're supposed to be fun. They're supposed to be artistic. They're supposed to win the crowd. They won't have any affect on game play. THEY ARE SUPPOSED to make people look at them and say something like "Neat!"
Even the angry drivers notice the brilliance of the idea.
Two men sit in a prison cell. One sees the dirt, the other sees the stars.
There can be appreciation in anything. All you have to do is listen.
Mods have one purpose and one purpose only: To make the game better.
The funserver did as they saw fit and added what they thought was a good idea.
Many people enjoy their ideas. Just as many people enjoy Korx's ideas.
Why do you think that people like mods like X? A? Z?
Because It's different from whats originally idealized.
This is a game. It's supposed to be fun. And this is a fun clan. (A great clan at that)
Get used to crazy people like me coming up with ideas. That's normal in any community.

The overmind is great. If you noticed, it's not blue like from original tremulous. Or red from Korx. It's originally green. (That is it's an original idea. not thought of before.) What does that mean? It means that this mod will be different from all others.
As to your insulting my skin edits, I'll admit. They are odd. They are weird. They are different. And I forgive you.
But one thing that I wont say is that the idea to make these creations was a bad idea. A green overmind is not stupid. A hive that looks like a bee hive is not stupid. A red barricade IS NOT STUPID.
Duc, this is a real server, and like other real servers, this one is different from all the rest.

I totally agree! The Blaster and the Acid Tube are actually too much already. The Barricade is not bad. But i think we shouldn't model everything. The Trapper is the ugliest thing i've ever seen in my life, sorry King.

Yeah, I agree with bor... (sorry King) but I do give King some credit, because he is trying and pretty soon, I will be too! And also King, the acid tube could use less blue! Just my opinion.

Ok, due to popular demand. i have stopped the modding.

no, I absolutely LOVE what you guys are doing!

once someone puts all these mods (both hummies and aliens) in nice pk3 format, I will put them on the server.

plz don't stop
