It Wandered In From the Wastes
Hey There Guys,

I'm working on a project called: FOT: Rules Of Engagement, and so far the story will feature something like this:

The Single Player campaign for Fallout Tactics takes place just a few months after the original game ended. The campaign against the Robots have decreased Brotherhood troops. After several set-backs on several scout missions the Brotherhood is putting their new trained troops out in the wastelands to strike back at the ones responsable... Here is where your mission starts... Through out the campaign, the story developes & new key features are introduced. The Total convention will feature new maps, new characters & new gameplay. We're focusing on making tactical gameplay a key feature... no more runnign around in open fields without the enemy spotting you, no more solo character actions... team work will be nessasary in completing your objectives ! The character storylines are much more related, characters in the game have a real relationship, we intend to give the Brotherhood Of Steel troops a much closer connection, so it will actually feels like a real Brotherhood.

I'm looking for a MAP designer / builder who wants to help me continue the work... Some files have been lost last month duo to a virus. I'm working on it as fast as I can but I will need someone to help me with the maps... Feel free to let me know at: Snakediablo@hotmail.com

Greetz,

Fallout Tactics: Rules Of Engagement

Hey There,

I am still working on a mod for Fallout Tactics, duo to some hard drive crash I lost several backups but I'm still working on it...

What I want to ask... I Need Help !

I need some people who can work with me, making maps, I've already finished the first two maps myself but I only got them from an excisting source... What I need is someone who is dedicated to make maps for this mod so we can finish it.

A Little Background info:

Introduction:
Fallout Tactics: Rules Of Engagement is more like an expansion pack then a mod. We're making new maps, adding new weapons, but meanwhile, enemy's, gameplay & scenerie stay's the same. We did try to make gameplay more realistic but we can only be sure of this when comments are coming in when the first demo is released... So I here by ask you to place your comments and send it to us by E-mail: Snakediablo@hotmail.com

Fallout Tactics: Rules Of Engagement Demo 2.0 will feature 1 map to play, after this mission is finished, you are able to continue the original game without interruption.

Missions & Maps:
We intend to bring you to places you've seen but not actually used to battle enemy's on. A combination of old & new features are used to not only bring some of the old style key features back, but also add some new stuff into the game so it will be fun to play, even after finishing the original game, also multiplayer will feature some maps from the single player modification.

Storyline:
Fallout Tactics: Rules Of Engagement takes place just a few months after the original game ended. the campaign against the robots have decreased Brotherhood Of Steel troops, many have left to start a new life, believing that after the destruction of the robot leader they don't have to worry anymore... How little do they know when suddenly an old player comes back to claim it's price.
The Brotherhood Of Steel is again, like in the original game, trying to find resources, materials & equipment to become stronger & to once again build up their forces, gain control, establish & stabilize living conditions in the wastelands.

Gameplay:
Gameplay is much more complicated. It's much harder to slip into enemy territory. Using different tactics & movements during combat now becomes a necessity In order to complete your objectives. In real life it's not like people can just walk into an open field without being seen by the enemy... You will need to use rocks, tree's, vehicles & obstacles to use cover. using team members is essential to winning a gun fight.

Characters:
Characters in the game are brought much closer to each other, backgrounds & information on characters all relate to each other. characters in the game, prefab & recruits all have a connection to each other, this because we wanted to establish a real connection between soldiers & characters through out the game.






Let me know if you want to work with me... I can really use the help !

Well, I'm a quite big fan of Fallout Tactics and I've thought about getting into modding, making a campaign, a new map or something, but the problem is I just don't have the time to do it. I checked the 1.26 editor very recently and it's just too complicated to messle with for the time being. Got to finish my book first and get my life back together again. Maybe after summer. Maybe not.

Say: anyone dedicated enough to finish my book for me... :puppy-dog:

Nah, didn't think so, eh? See Snake, if you really really want to do this mod you're talking about, you're going to be the only one who can actually finish it. A little discipline, dude, a little less tv. Just go for it and amaze us all. Tell you what: if you finish it, I'll play it. That's a good deal too, isn't it? :wink:

On the other hand: maybe this post is just in the wrong forum: post another one in the Fallout Modding and/or Fallout Editor forums and ask for some help over there. I'm sure there's still a couple of guys working on FoT mods. Have you visited other Fallout sites as well? Maybe someone over there is still totally obsessed with FoT. Just an idea. FoT isn't really popular on NMA, that's a known fact.

Anyway: good luck to you and to your project. May the force be with you! :wink:
 
Thanks Bro,

I'll see what I can come up with... I've been making mods ever since Half Life came out...

I've worked on:

Quake III - Bid For Power
Half Life: Counter Strike (Skin & Weapon Packs)
C&C Red Alert: Tiberium Empire
C&C Generals: Apache / Commance Replacement
Fallout Tactics Demo: Rules Of War
Max Payne: True Matrix Mod 1.6 Special Edition

and now... I'm making the biggest mod every made for fallout tactics... and now I can not find any help around here... :(

(Roe)Snake, is this based in the US? If it is could you use more American Weapons as unlike what the media and politicians would have you to believe, the AK and other Soviet weapons are quite rare, and this has always bothered me. As it should be the M-16 and LAAW rocket that should be plentiful, and the Communist weapons that are quite rare. Just my 2 cents.

Well I never thought of it that way... You have a good point. Fallout is known for it's sometimes a little unrealistic features... But in case of weapons and items... I think you hit the jackpot !

Let me see... I don't know which weapon sprites are going to be used... I send in a list of weapons to the editor and he does his editing, looking at what he can make... Then he'll send it back to me and I have to make a choice of what I'll use and what I don't use...

The problem is that when you're rarely gonna use specifivc weapons you'll need to find replacements and thus making enemy stronger weaker... We're trying to tune enemy characters with the weapons they carry... I don't think I should start all over again, I could check if I can add some more US weapons but I think it's a feature that we will have to live with...

I have to say I was pretty enjoyed when I got the AK... It's a good weapon and it looks good in game. So I think people kinda expected it to be in the game... Previous Fallout games has weapons that never actually exsisted.

Thanks for the feedback... I'll see what I can do, I take everything under consideration... But I can not make any promises but thanks...

@(Roe)Snake, if i remember correctly the M-16 is in FO:T. And if you still want to use the Fallout divergence, the M-1911A1 45 caliber automatic was used at that time. The only weapon i think you would have problems replacing is the RPG with a LAAW rocket. As for ammo just replace 5.56 ammo where you are using 7.62, and switch the AK series of weapons with the M-16. Where you would get 9mm ammo for the 9mm pistols, just replace it with .45 ammo and then replace the 9mm pistols with 45's.


Cheers Thorgrimm
 
Well I think we're keeping all the original weapons as they are and use new ones... It's not that I'm gonna give each character the same gun like in the original... For each different character kind, I will be adding other weapons... Even the new ones I want to put in...

The LAAW rocket launcher is a good idea... I'll check and see if I can find some good images to make sprites from :D Thanks for your comment... it's always useful to hear other people's idea's

Monday, Februari 23

I've added some new preview screenshots from a bunker map, this is well underway to be finsihed... Got some more screenshots coming up from another map and I am about to receive a new finished map so I'll be putting up screenshots from these two maps aswell

I've also put on some new weapons, we also ask you NOT to copy them without our approval, since the credits go to their creator and editor... stealing is not in our nature... So we expect the same from any other mapper / mod maker.

If you're looking for Weapon packs... send in your requests and I might consider doing a special weapons pack.

Dam Tiles & Idea's - Tiles Artist Wanted !!!

Hey there,

I'm working on some new idea's for the modification I'm working on and I am working out some idea's for the final map and I was thinking of doing something really unique but I lack the skill to create custom tiles or sprites... So I am looking for an artist who is willing to help me out with just one big idea... It's just one thing really but I can't do it myself because I have no idea how to create these custom tiles...

http://www.angeltowns.com/members/snakediablo/ideas/dam.jpg

EDIT: Copy & Paste the address into your IE address bar... my webserver doesn't allow offsite linking or something ! :x :(

Here's the idea of a dam I want for the final mission map, but since there are no such tiles available in the editor to make it look like this... I will need custom created tiles... and I would like to ask if someone has the skill and the dedication to do this for me and my crew... I really really want this done, it would beso great to see this become reality...

Let me know what you can do... maybe we can put some hands together and work it out with a few guys together.

Greetz,

Snake
