DT. Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I'm seriously thinking of just moving the mod to MP. It would have more replay value and not be such a large undertaking. Thoughts? Link to comment

DT. Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Yeah, I agree but there's only myself & @@Trank mapping and no one else seems interested in helping out. This would be the first full project that uses Rend2, so everything shall be pretty. Link to comment
sydow Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 what do you mean by moving it to MP? if you're just gonna be making maps it wouldnt be a mod anymore, just a massive df2-themed map pack Link to comment
Futuza Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Co-op would be amazing. Onysfx, Smoo and Kessno like this Link to comment

Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 what do you mean by moving it to MP? if you're just gonna be making maps it wouldnt be a mod anymore, just a massive df2-themed map pack Maps, player models, weapons, new menu & perhaps new force powers. It would be a mod. Jeff likes this Link to comment
Circa Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I'm seriously thinking of just moving the mod to MP. It would have more replay value and not be such a large undertaking. Thoughts? I disagree. Overall I think people would rather play a DFII SP mod, because they'll try out a MP but everyone goes back to the 3 main MP options: base, JA+(+), and MBII. People want a DFII remake. This mod is the only hope for that at this point, and has potential to turn out really good. Kessno, LucyTheAlien, hleV and 4 others like this Link to comment

Right now, it's just myself and Trank mapping (when he's not busy) and there's a shitload of mapping to be done. Seems like most everyone who does map does so for MP. If anyone want to help out with mapping, by all means pipe up and let me know. Link to comment

Smoo Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Both Ill help outin development Once I learn some more Link to comment
DT. Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 For this to stay on SP, we will need more mappers. I know there's a few of you out there who are skilled enough. Link to comment
Kessno Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I don't think moving the mod to multiplayer would really work, unless you just created a map-pack. I think that it should stay singleplayer. Have you been able to overcome the issues you were having with Rend2 working with singleplayer, or were you referring to using it if you were to switch things over to multiplayer?I wrote you awhile back asking about mapping but you never got back to me if the map I was interested in was still being worked on.

DrXann Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 You should at least try to finish it and make a few models that weren't made when the Dark Forces Skin pack came out in 2009.As for force powers, Movie Battles 2 and some multiplayer mod actually implemented Force Blinding and Destruction as usable powers in multiplayer.

Sorry, it must have slipped my mind. PM me and this time I'll get back to you, promise. I meant if it were to head over to MP, we'd use rend2. Rend2 SP is still FUBAR. Link to comment
minilogoguy18 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I wish I could help in the mapping but I never learned how to use Radiant. I know I haven't been around much as far as 3d art and animation but I'm kinda in the same slump as you since I know the mod wont go anywhere without maps. As much as I played MP in the past this mod should stay SP as without the story of DF2 it's not really a DF2 mod, just JA with some extra characters. Circa and Smoo like this Link to comment
Circa Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 @ would make a fine addition to the team. If I do join in the future, it'll be for SP mapping only. Not really interested in making MP maps. At least not for this. Smoo likes this Link to comment
Jeff Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I'm in the minoirity but I would prefer MP Link to comment
Smoo Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I've only made 1 map before but I'm keen to start mapping again, hope I get better Link to comment
Smoo Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 And I've played with a mp df2 mod bedore, it fun to muck around but would prefer it SP Link to comment
DT. Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Well it was just an idea I was thinking of, and the public has spoken. Still need at least 2 more mappers to see this mod completed though. Smoo likes this Link to comment
minilogoguy18 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Gotta be a way we can reach out to more mappers, dunno if they'd find it annoying but how about just going to the mappers and asking them, the worst they could do is say no. Link to comment
Circa Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Well I know @@Darth Martyr is a big fan of DFII and is a great mapper. But I'm sure he's tired of me dragging him into projects like this. Smoo likes this Link to comment
DT. Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 I've already asked a few here, and they either didn't reply or said no. So it's not like I haven't tried. Link to comment
Archangel35757 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Do you have a complete list of levels/maps that are needed for DF2? I couldn't find it... Smoo likes this Link to comment
