Brolands mod, [WIP]

Do you mean modular models, as in sprite weapon parts, or something else related to modular scripting (Not graphics.)? Just wondering because I haven't come across any mod that does this, or anything remotely like it, I think. And if you meant sprite-weapon parts, is it a complex procedure to add new parts, or can you easily add new ones?

Then it applies the stat modifiers associated with those modules and bullet types to a set of slightly randomized base stats. After this is done I use lua to fire the picked bullet when needed and move around the modules according to a set of offsets set per module. At the moment though I still need to make the muzzle offsets and fix balancing. Then I think we're ready for release of a teaser version of the mod.

Yes, very easy. You just add graphic modules, then update the lua file with whatever data you want associated with your module.

Yes, very easy. You just add graphic modules, then update the lua file with whatever data you want associated with your module. You'd also need to update smg.ini. But yeah, it is pretty easy to add new modules. I'll need to write up a tutorial for this at some point, as I've stated in my todo list. Also, I was actually counting on people expanding this after release.

Borderlands I and II are, and always will be, my favorite games. Ever. You are epic for doing this. Can't wait for Sniper Rifles, Rocket Launchers and the like xD Any estimated estimation of an estimated estimate for a pre-release? Oh god, i hope it's soon.

When I have the lua down for the 4 different archetypes it shouldn't take long to implement the other gun types. As long as I get some sprites for it. So, if I make a concerted effort, I should be able to roll it out in a week or two. I haven't really been doing this though, so we are probably closer to a month or so.

I've also pledged to be done with Brolands before the next year. So there will definitely be a release before that, no matter how done I am. edit: I got the basic scripting and effects down for the different bullet types. But there are a lot of problems. Firstly, the chance of them happening are nowhere near what I set them to, I am chalking that down to dodgy target acquisition. Something I will have to look at. But yeah, try it out, balance some stats if you want, give me some feedback. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1649320/Cortex ... ds.rte.rar

I'm sure you could google screenshots of inventory views and convert them to palette and clean them up.

You'd lose huge amounts of detail in the scale-down process, and the sprites would just be blurry, indistinct blobs. Scale+convert is lazy as hell and no substitute for proper spriting at all.

You can clean up the image, after all you're working in single pixel by pixel art frames. I do this all the time for getting a straight reference to the outline of complex forms for my sprite work.
