| Quoting goober | i want other gametypes build from RF type maps..
the CDC is done, at the biggining of this thread. |
Yeah I know what you mean, like VCTF and probably ONS.
I think that Mutant, invasion, last man standing and DOM wouldnt be good gametypes. Some people may like them, but the more gametpyes the mod has the less attractive it'll become.
What do you think about mixing some features from RF2 into the mod? For example the slomotion, or perhaps the dual weapons system (which shouldnt be THAT hard because of the assault rifle that is already done). Or even maps from RF2, I LOVE some of these, but that isnt going to b easy since RF2 doesnt even have an editor.
And what about a special item that spawns flashes from your body and hurts other players when you get near them. I couldnt explain it in a better way. You know, like the Sniper rifle that spawns some random lightning flashes when it hits the ground.
btw what should be the name of the mod? lol
I think Red Faction wouldnt b a good idea. Perhaps something that doesnt even include any of these words? Just to get around the copyrights.. 
Something like mars battle or...I dont know, that was just an example.
ExtremeFaction2004?
lol something like that...I'm bad in finding names. 
I have found some information about mods which might help me here

yes, i was only thinking of VCTF and ONS although last man standing might be a good mix..
Features from RF2 i wouldnt have a problem with... theres some good things in there. Can you open RF2 files in RED Editor? ill try some stuff..

I doubt you can do that. Many people tryed to open the files but they're incompatible with RF.
Yeah, last man standing wouldnt be too bad, altough I never ever play it in UT. lol (bots are uninteresting.)
MarsMod2004 sounds good. But in most maps you won't feel like u r on mars at all  |

I'm not sure if this is going to happen at all.
I have never played any SP maps/campains on UT2004, and I think the game wasnt done for this.
I think this would require a whole new AI. |

First off, single-player. While it would be alot of work many area (such as caves) could be made with much greater speed and less difficulty than in RED. It's a good idea to include SP, but I think multi-player should be the first concern.
And about the game types... what if instead of ONS we make our own game type; not something too complicated. I'm thinking maybe mass flag capturing, like in the Battlefield and Day of Defeat series'.
As for the name, what about including something about the rebelion... like "Miner's Revolt" or something? |

I have no idea how to code a new gametype (I think the greater problem will be coding the AI for it) but if there's anyone with a good idea and some1 with the abilities, why not 
You know, in RF2 there are gametpyes like Bagman and Regime. I think stuff like this would be fun, but also hard to script.
A CTF with 4 flags would be cool. Or yea, a flag capturing like BF that you've mentioned.
Miners Revolt aint bad.
Good news, AbbaautyOne sent me two of his custom weapons which include the reloadable weapon feature, or parts of it --I couldnt test it yet.
That could be very helpful for the mod. |

Awesome, now I think it would be cool if the player was able to throw the grenade while he's holdin a gun like in RF2..I know that it CAN be done, but not sure if I can do this lol. |

shouldnt be too hard to script, maby it can be alt fire on a weapon that has no alt fire in RF... also, are we going to have the second mode of the SMG in the mod? |

In another mod you hit "G" and a grenade gets thrown.
Not sure if the second mode is needed for multiplayer.
It isnt even needed in SP. Only when you run out of ammo it becomes useful
Of course the second mode shoots stronger. Maybe it is possible to toggle the fire mode with the alt fire.

I think it should include some of those words something like RED Tournament or Unreal Faction or just Red Faction mod. I Highly doubt thq or volition are going to come after you for making a mod based on there game with the name of the game in the title of the mod.
something like mars battle or MarsMod2004 or Miner's Revolt would just seam odd and they don't sound that exciting... IMO |
