Mods ideas
« on: January 17, 2012, 08:53:31 PM »
Hello everybody , wanted to ask you for some Mods ideas , because I have a friend that want to create something for CoH , but he need's some "inspiration"  :P . I told him to do something based on the Korean war or Gears of war  , but he is not pretty sure , because he wants something simple but good  . Any ideas ? . Maybe he will show something in the future...

Red Alert 1

If I had time to mod other than EF, I'd be doing this.

If you are working on a mod, it all depends how much expertise you have. If you are limited to coding only, make some more independent missions, add some new units from relic forums, add have fun. If you have advanced modeling skins, please make something modern. CoH needs something more than Zmod and modern combat, nether of which has been released. But if you are bent on WW2, please make a new Eastern Front mod. Make one super axis faction against an unstoppable Soviet horde. It will be like BotB mod but just on the Eastern Front. Make the Russians more like in CoD World at War and the germans need a more haggard, worn down look. But make your own models, don't steal from the kind EF devs.
Ostheer is a new German faction for this mod.
It will be done when it is done.
Keep mapping and modeling.

Make a Gears Of War mod ;D. That would be pretty cool.

In Marcus' words: "SWEET!"

Om Nom Nom Nom
"Panzer-Guppy ready for battle!"
"Ha Ha Ha! We have the ZEAL!"
"Grenadiers! Fall In!!"

No doubt , i told him that it was a fantastic idea , but really ambitious , maybe it would be easier make a GoW mod for any Dawn of war game (or warhammer , I dont really know how is it called).

Red Alert

I would like to see a Red Alert Mod what an amazing game probably the first game that made me intrested in RTS games, good ol Tesla Coils muhaa :) Or the dreaded Mammoth tank.

R.I.P Red Alert


Modern Combat

I would also like to see some more Modern Combat mods, a game that I suggest would inspire you a little is C&C Generals


Western Front

I would like to see a Western Front mod that included the French Faction and just generally expanding on the Western Front


Vietnam War

And I was also thinking a Vietnam War mod though don't know how it would work

Tesla Coils and Nukes would be a pain to try to mod... I can make effects in 3DsMax but transferring them over to CoH is another story. Other than that, a Red Alert mod would be perfectly feasible.

as we don't know how to get custom effects into CoH that would be a problem yah.

Not that good  :( . Maybe, he will start this year with something "simple" and , in 2013 , he will take one of this ideas.
Thanks everybody and keep commenting if you want.
