[Laudanum] Victorian steampunk horror mod

[Kangus]

*points to the name of the mod* yeah.... era drugs are kinda going to play an important role in the whole thing, esp for stuff like medkits.
As for your second idea, I think thats how the opium fiends are going to work... people get drugged by the cultist's tainted opiates and become "monsters" of sorts. I may take the concept a little further and also toss in some sort of parasite based monsters. I like parasites.

Kangus(May I call you Kangus or do I have to call you His Majesty,King Kangus I?),
do you want to add bots to Laudanum?

 

[Kangus]

bots? of course there were going to be bots... 2k3 has bots, so I don't see why a 2k3 mod shouldn't.

 

[Undead Frank]

O.k.IMO,we need a Long-Range weapon.Not necessarily a Sniper-Rifle,but something Long-Range.Perhaps some sort of "Vampiric Leap" will do(Jump to the Enemy,and rip his Head off in Mid-Air).What do you think?

But nobody EVER made a Bot which doesn't see invisible people, so the Infiltrator 8mm suggested would be a problem.

 

[Smoke39]

You don't need a new bot to make them not see you. My nuker's cloaking ability sets bots' targets to none if they're targeting you. Works pretty well.

I did that back in UT, set the bots target to none, and set them to state roaming.

 

[8mm_BuLLEt]

I see that thats brought up a problem... but can't you just make it so the bot doesnt see behind him? Or is that what you can't seem to do right now..?

 

[Postal]

So, is this thing dead? Kangus, you give up on this idea?

 

[Undead Frank]

Seems that way....
But why don't you just leave out the Infiltrator.There are loads off other good things in this mod, so at least try it!If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.But if it works, you're gonna have many people which have fun with your mod. Don't let this die,Kangus!

 

[Kangus]

man, you guys keep digging up posts from the deep.... the whole reason Laudanum ain't happening atm is the lack of a real modeller. I think I've said this like fifty times, although probably not in this thread.... and if you glance around in other threads, you'll see that the Infiltrator is very possible, because the dagger I'm working on sure as heck fools them.... ideas from this mod are VERY much being used by me still, juts not the bigger mod on the whole.
see this thread for details on the dagger, etc: http://forums.beyondunreal.com/showthread.php?t=130928

one thing that should be implemented for a proper horror mod... is that players should randomly become werewolves... or vampires, or things like that, and tear sh!t up. possibly the players lose control of their character and watch in 3rd person mode.

so you're chasing this dude, and all of a sudden he becomes a werewolf, leaps on top of you, and rips your head off and shoves it up your ass. THAT would be fun/freaky.

I think this is the best mod that hasn't been released. I think we should all make an effort to make sure it remains #1 on the ModWorks ranks.

 

[Kangus]

this does remind me though, that I need to port my Flare Gun from this over to 2k4.
