[req] A Real Good Al|en Themepack

m4dm4d Join Date: 2003-07-25 Member: 18419Members
<div class="IPBDescription">i know it sucks ^^</div> Hi there
I know there are tons of models, skins, sounds bla for ns in an al|en the movie style.
The problem is there are just TOO many of them.
What i'm looking for is a real nice and neat package with everything in it and all this if possible in high quality ^^
So far i found only one pack in the release thread, the one from commander kitten. But dl link is down and most ppl posted it's crap.
And the only skulk models i can find are the "runner alien" and that model sucks...
I think a skulk should more be like a facehugger or a chestbuster.

So someone out there who can help?
Is there allready such a pack?
anyone got too much spare time and wants to make one? ^^
I would do it myself but i don't know really much about that stuff and what models are good.
Just trying out every model takes way too much time cuz there are so many of them and i don't know a singel one ingame yet.

over and out ^^

    I too would like to see a high quality a|iens pack; I don't know what you have against the alien runner though <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    never saw a alien like a runner i think ^^
    not in the movies and not in the comics
    and a skulk is the lowest evolution so it would just be logical to make him a facehugger or a chestbuster cuz they are also the lowest alien liveforms.

    In the end i think it's just a matter of personal taste <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    that's your opinion
    i got another one <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think NS fits exactly in the AvP universe and is what the AvP games should have been originaly.
    Before we get offtopic
    Nobody knows a pack? ^^
    And if there is no complete pack just give me a few sugestions what models are good.
    That would be allready very helpfull.
    I'm new to this so plz just help me <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Well tbh if you don't like the runner skulk (referenced in Alien 3, as well as the AvP games, you'll note) then really there's no model you'll like.

    If you use the search function and examine the release thread you will find conversions for all aliens. As a matter of choice, I use the red runner (more like AvP) and the black reskins of the other models.

    There's also an extensive soundpack and Alien Chambers to replace all the normal chambers. A queen replacement for the hive also exists.

    The only thing missing are v weapons (what you see as your weapon as you play) and currently I'm working on those.

    Release thread and search function, then pick and choose.

    a Skulk for a facehugger or chest burster......


    the Fae hugger is only the size of a face and the chest burster is about ur neck but just a big longer

    the Alien Runner is the best one that suits the Skulk because in they both run on all fours and they are practically both the same size

    but i wouldnt mind a nice pack of this AL|ENS style stuff

    atm i need the Welder(reaniminated and reorigined o.O), Fade v_mdl's, ONO's v_mdl's, Gorge v_mdl's, Al|ens style membrane when in egg and i am in the progress of making a VP-70 although i am a bit stuck o.O

    but yeh <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> i'm not asking for a pack so no one has to do this <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    "the Welder(reaniminated and reorigined o.O),"

    Hasn't this been done?

    "Fade v_mdl's"

    Its been done. Its on my desktop. We just need a gorge reskin and I believe Brimstone is meant to be making a stomp anim for me.

    "ONO's v_mdl's,"

    See above

    "Gorge v_mdl's"

    All you need is a reskin, one of which is linked in these very forums but doesn't work. Try PMing or emailing Sp@zmong about fixing that.

    "Al|ens style membrane when in egg"

    Done, released already.


    BTW you left out a Lerk v_weapon. Although one exists in the release thread, it looks nothing like the Alien Lerk model.


    BTW can you stop with this Al|en stuff, because it makes it hard for people to find the relevant threads.



    "I would do it myself but i don't know really much about that stuff and what models are good."

    Learn. I had to. And by learning I managed to churn out a reanimated Fade v_weapon, wholly create a Lerk v_weapon and an Onos v_weapon.

    Second, its quite easy to check the models - download HLMV (read the thread about Wanting to Model) and look at them in that.

    Made this a while back... but never really relesed it cause of flaming
  • NecrosisNecrosis The Loquacious Sage Join Date: 2003-08-03 Member: 18828Members, Constellation
    Flaming? Why?

    BTW your pack lacks a readme crediting the individual authors. You should see to that.

    I downloaded it, but I'm not telling how because I still disagree with the idea of a pack without crediting the authors.

    Its mainly just a compilation of everything mentioned in the Release Thread.

    reason for that is because i didnt really want to release it to everyone.. just private... so i never made a readme... all i really did is export avp2 sounds and converted..

    BTW fixed link

    m4d *sigh man you have a long way 2 go before you see your ideas being put forth. if YOU HAVE PLAYED avp2 you will relise that a runner is one of the basic FULL GROWN aliens. face hugger and chest buster just do not fit into the ns universe..YET. They are both too small and unnesseacry due to the fact that they can be killed with one shotgun shot. sorry mate <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    hmmmz i agree that the a|iens thmem fits more into the ns universe, but it was refreshing to see starcraft also weaved into the ns system as well, But with starcraft we need open areas and a better graphics , those two will not be happening due to half lifes

    Erm this isn't suposed to critisize but have you tried Aliens vs. Predator 1 or 2, if you haven't you might like one (or both) more than natural selection. Unfortunately if someone made a totally new model and skin for the NS aliens it wouldn't work too well since in order to do the film aliens credit the models would have to be bigger than the hitboxes (I think thats what they're called but i'm not a modeler so I don't really know), in which case you'd be shooting at uber cool looking aliens without being able to hit them unless you aimed more for the center. Of course if some LAME @$$ CHEATERS DIDN'T GO AROUND USING HACKS AND AIMBOTS WE MIGHT NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM!!! *sigh* I wonder if you get computer games in heaven......

    Actually if you read the release thread and downloaded the files, you'd realise that there is no problem with scale, and those Kharaa with unusual shapes are replaced by similar (but Alien themed) versions.

    Case in point - lerk, gorge, onos.
