had 3 ideas for modding:
1: Continous after-image for Konoko: basicly a continous flowing afterimage effect like of with the shadow dash and Fury speical attacks, but wanted it to be done so there would be an after image effect even when doing normal actions and such like when running, jumping, etc
2: Matrix agents: Possibly converting the civilan males into retextured Matrix agents (Geen suits and black ties). the BGI agents are ok, but they look more like detectives than acutal Agents
3:removing laser/green ammo weapons with only bullet/red ammo weapons

Bungie said they turned it on for all animations one time, and it apparently sucked. In any case, it would lag up your system.

To what end?
3:removing laser/green ammo weapons with only bullet/red ammo weapons
Do you just not like energy weapons?

Ok.... no more Matrix for T_K. Dunno if anyone else noticed, but all of those mod ideas are in the Matrix. Not that I didn't like the movie.
By the way, I disagree strongly with you on taking away energy weapons. personally, I feel that those (energy) weapons aren't used nearly enough, or just aren't powerful enough. What I would like to see is some really great plasma weapons that are just about equal to, say, a Mercury bow, SBG, or Scram cannon, all of which use ballistic ammo. even in the weapon mods, there aren't many "green ammo" weapons.
How about this: Is it possible to make a "sticky" bullet, using the Screaming Cannon? So instead of floating around, the shot stays on whatever it hits, and then drains the life from whoever gets too close. So that, say, if I saw a group of enemies patrolling an area, I could pull out my "sticky gun" and shoot one of them, and then it would create a draining aura around that person, hurting them and everyone near them. Kinda like the "Irradiate" spell from StarCraft.
Here's where I got the idea: http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Science … #Abilities

And how exactly would you defend against such a bullet? Or multiple bullets?

Dodge. Run away. It wouldn't have to be a seeker, just fly in a straight line. And if it hits you, force shield and hypos.

ok ok, i get the point, my ideas suck lol. Namely my reason for a dislike of plasma weapons is, well, its not really a dislike, just really a preference, although the VDG is fun to use lol
Offline
Yeah, I like the VDG, too. And don't stop thinking up ideas, bad ideas are part of how we learn to come up with good ideas, right?

It's good to have out of the box thinkers, ever if it turns out to be a bad idea, you never know when one is going to be good right
and even so, someone might be able to gain another idea because of your suggestion

I agree with TheCreature and Mukade. Sometimes bad ideas or mods can bring good results. I speak from experience: http://wiki.oni2.net/User:EdT
So Tiger_of_Kai, don't be afraid to to share your ideas or mods. Just be sure to wear a teflon coat, so the negative criticism won't hurt as much. :-)

Ok. and also, has anyone (just ofr laughs or kicks) thought about creating a OTA of the Burly Brawl area?
Offline
Nooo idea what you speak of
Anyways, I have a few more ideas:
Distraction shot:
Causes enemies to look in a certain direction, so you can get around, or ambush them
Adds more of a "stealth" element to the game
--------------------------------------------------------
Re-texture of the "green screen" terminals
Enough said, they look like they need an update
------------------------------------------------------
Gravity Gun SBG:
Cause the shot from SBG to let out a shockwave causing enemies to fly
up in the air high enough to take some fall damage. (using energy cells?)
Particle would probably be recolored "earthquaker" particles
----------------------------------------------------
Flamethrower:
Possibly using plasma rifle model, and the particles from the jet engine of a plane on airport assault
(energy cell)
At least half of these I know would be possible, and I have the skill to do myself. What im really intersted in is the first item. I was going through some Oni levels, and found it very hard to use stealth because they're facing in the wrong direction
I want to be able to sneak by people
Is something like this possible?

Cool. Not sure about the flame thrower gun. It'd look cool, but it seems to me that if an enemy gets that close, it's usually better to just go hand to hand with them.
I like the Shockwave SBG. I've sometimes accomplished this (to an extent) with a normal SBG, getting the explosive to sit on the floor until someone walks over it, and then releasing the trigger to ignite the bomb, throwing them into the air.
As for the distraction gun, I remember seeing a few graphs here a while back, showing the distance from where the AI "hears" a shot fired. It had three rings, i believe. The biggest one was the report of the gun itself, then the ricochet sound, and a third I can't remember. Could this gun be achieved by drastically reducing the report, and then increasing the ricochet?

Yeah, a silenced pistol should be doable.

its possible, but what I'm worried that it isnt possible to get them to face where the bullet landed, but they'd face where it came from, whihc would defeat the purpose... but there would be two steps for it to work. First would be get it to work, next would be to make it cool

Yeah, plus it wouldn't be quite as fun if they didn't light on fire, that would be hard to do

No, no no, a silenced pistol is EZ sauce, I know exactly how to do it, but the question i need answered is it possible to get the AI to face where the bullet landed?

About the first post ideas...
Well, first and second ideas are very good, but I think you could just make the afterimage for powerfull attacks.
However, I did not like third one, as it would be weird a Plasma launcher to recharge with ballistic ammo...

Flamethrower is possible (even burning) but will probably not be fun...

Just give it a largeish sound radius for collisions and it should work ok.

Do you know how to do after image effect?

Tiger_of_Kai: Sorry, but I don't. I am really poor at model animating and particles...

Hmm, I was also thinking, as a secondary fire to a distraction weapon, you could have like, a 3 second phase cloak, not enough to be overpowered, but enough to cover a small distance without being seen

That'd be cool. But how much ammo would it eat up? How much ammo does the gun have? And I'm also wondering, what'd be the damage on this gun? I'm picturing a small exploding bullet, to make it seem like it would create more sound, but would it do more damage?

no no, the whole point is to be stealthy. As for charge, I'm not certain, it certainly wouldn't be huge, maybe a clip the size of VDG pistol (about 5).
I know I can probably get an enemy to face the shot, but I also want to know if it would be possible to make him investigate as well

well, what about instead of weapons, could ahve them as powers?
for example (weapons that could be turned into powers)
weapon namee = What power the weapon would be = Aura color instead of equipped weapon
Screamin' Cannon = Life Drain power = Purple aura
VDG = Lighting bolt power = Blue aura
Plasma rifle = cucussion blasts = yellow aura
Barbarus Gun = Plasma stream power? = Red Aura
what do you all think?
Offline
How would this work? How would we control the powers? It might look cool, but I'm not sure how practical this would be. Cool idea though. That first one sounds like Barabas' draining regeneration mod.
