Ambient Radio Mod
<div class="IPBDescription">music and chatter for environmental effect</div>I'm working on a mod concept where there is an archived radio program (an old podcast like thing) that is somewhere in the environment of a map. The radio show itself would have a DJ talking, telling stories and playing a few songs. The hope would be to add some humor to the environment as variation on the grim fight for survival.
Ok, that's the idea. Now I've already got the general form of this mod together in terms of the audio files involved. The songs are original (lyrics complete + some rough recording) and the DJ's text is started but I'm not sure how much of a Good Morning Vietnam Vs Reservoir Dogs (super sounds of the 70s) touch I want to put on the character.
I've got the SE pre-order and I'm playing with it, but I don't have anything started in terms of coding/scripting. If anyone wants to be a part of this mod, bring it on!
I'd love some other voices than my own on the tracks (I'll get some RL friends in on it, but I know there is some great talent out there in the community eg BAD clan loading song). Even whole other "audio programming" ideas, like a fan-fiction made into a news cast.
Anyway, the goal is to have not just an additional piece of audio in the environment, but one that is effected by the power grid and dynamic infestation.
That's it for now,

nice idea.
PD: i cant help on anything since im not familiar with NS2 tools... im finding it pretty interesting so far and considering buying it... might end up being easier than using UDK for the purposes of what i wanted to do (have fun creating experimental FPS gameplay)
sry if other engines cant be mentioned here, ur welcome to delete post.
keep the good work!
Cheers
