Would be very well a mod of the Mexican Revolution!
Long live Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata!
For a new mod: 1910-1917 Mexican !!
Viva Mexico !!
EDIT by Gabby:
I listed here the best ideas given by my supporters.
Pls limit them cuz I already have problems in handling my actual THREE Mods! hehehe....
That would be amazing! It's such a colorful and exciting period.
Characters include Pancho Villa, Emiliano Zapata, Gen. Huerta, Gen. Carranza, Rodolfo Fierro (The Butcher of the Revolution), Felipe Angeles, Sam Drebin and Tracy Richardson (famous American mercenaries), John Reed (American journalist) Ambrose Bierce (American author who disappeared in Mexico during the revolution). Characters from the many Mexican Revolution movies could also be included.
Inspirational movies would include: The Wild Bunch, Villa Rides, And Starring Pancho Villa As Himself, Viva Villa, Zapata, A Bullet For The General, Duck You Sucker, Companeros, The Professionals, Cannon For Cordoba, Five Man Army and so many more.
Factions: Mexican Federal Government (Khaki uniformed Federales in peaked caps and pith helmets, Grey uniformed Rurales in sombreros), Villistas (colorful bandido types in big sombreros), Carranzistas (Khaki uniforms and campaign hats), Zapatistas (peasants troops in white cotton with straw sombreros), American Expeditionary Force under Black Jack Pershing (Olive uniforms and "smokey bear" campaign hats). Assorted other minor factions including Yaqui indians, bandits, American mercenaries. Many of the uniforms from 1866 and Russian Civil War would do nicely with re-textures.
Weapons: Many already exist in mods like Civil War in Russia, 1866 and 1860s Old America. Winchesters, Colt revolvers and automatics, Springfield rifles, Mauser rifles and pistols, Lewis guns, grenades. Browning water cooled machine guns, 75mm cannons would also be relevant.
Adobe buildings, desert battlefields, the train from 1866...
Executing prisoners with firing squads would be a neat feature, too.
When you think about it, most of this mod already exists in pieces from other mods. Some enterprising person would just have to get the permissions and assemble it. I would love to play a Mexican Revolution mod.
Ok!
You guys are right!
I like that period as well and 'd love to make a Mod on that as well.
Same for a:
-1600s early America Mod, or ....
-1812 USA vs GB mod, or ...
-1830s/40s USA-Texas vs MEXICO mod, adding a Character as the Son of ZORRO, as well (THAT would make my son happy!! ....and may be also some "Auld" friend of mine....huh, Tommy??hehehehe ) or...
-1755/1776/1860s PERSISTENT World Modifications!
-1755/1776/1860s modified for old Mount&Blade
...and since I did a lot on USA already, but I am Italian, as you all know:
-an Italian Gangsters in early 1900s Mod
-a WWI and/or WW2 mod, based in Europe, and expecially on Italians battles
-a POST ATOMIC fantasy Mod, as in Interceptor movie....
.....and so- so- so -so much more, really.
You cannot imagine what a Vulcano of ideas I am!
....BUT.....
....as in all dreams one wakes up and sees just what reality is.
And modding is a HUGE pain in the butt, with SOME rewards and MANY frustrations and sacrifices!!!
I am not one of those great Module Py genius, I mostly work just using Text modifications and great morgh s Tools (HONOR to Mr. Morgh, once again: without you, my Mods wouldn t exist!! )
So imagine going through for hours, fixing/modifing
-Factions
-Parties
-Missions
-Troops
-Items ...and all their skills!!!!!!!
etc etc
working on something like this:
......A HUGE TEXT BEFORE THIS................... .
Then I have to make/fix also
Scenes, Sounds&Music, Textures (gghhh...I m really BAD with meshes and stuff!! ).
....etc etc etc
- A L L - this for what then?
For all those occasional players, (ok ok...mostly recruits ...but sometimes more experienced ppl... but still too lazy to read instructions...) that ask for any kind of help on Forums??
Or for some people, that did not even deeply play last versions of my Mods, going like:
" And please, no offense to Gab or anyone with his team, but please don't make it buggy like his/their mods are. Uniforms are awesome, yet the scripts are bad and you gotta run with 24 soldiers + you on the battlefeild, even than you crash -.- "
(pls note that most of that is false! ....or am I the only smart fellow with a super tech 2005 dated PC???)
Ohh, Thx to ppl like this one, by the way
downing somebodys work.. let alone the work people present to the community on their own free will, free time?
...don t even know him, but guys like that make Modders and their Mods progress!!!
NO! ...thanks...!!!
And even most of ppl that post nice and smart comments/suggestions on my Forums, and that is good.
But really, they do not support my Mods with a pic or in any other way.....
...c'mon, folks!!! We modders need strong enthusiasm... as I got when starting 1755.
Somebody remembers?
I still keep my modding active cuz I started my "poor or rich" job,and I will do my best to finish it.
.....and also because only few friends are still really helping me.
So I' ve got no choice....
And that is what should counts for the M&B Community!!
...how many Mods projects started, even with best intentions and STILL are just "a project" without a release date???
Good or bad, I did THREE Mods, and they are all playable, even if some need more fixing.
But even about just deeply Testing them, how many ppl PMed me praying to be Testers and get the link of my WIP....and then never feedback once??
A lot, unfortunately.
FFiiiiUUUuu....I had to say all that, sorry guys.
It was out of topic and I will keep this idea of my nice friend Bask in mind but please....
What about a mod in the Napoleonic era? Like in europe and around 1805-1815? It would be sweet if you guys could make a mod like this But i know it will take alot of time and that you'll put alot of time in it, so don't make it for me only ! I would say if around 500-1000 would like a mod like that it would be okay, not just 1 person! What about starting a poll asking for that?

Ohh...please don t!!!!
...if you read my last post up above, you will understand why.
I personally would love to make some mods that I PERSONALLY like and have already clear in my mind...but...Hey, ....I don t even have enough free time and help to finish my main three mods!
Yea i understand that, i know how much time you have spend on these mods, but maybe in the future with alot more ppl on the team As i have no modding experience i can't directly help on modding But you should just know that i understand you
Out of topic...but you are welcome!
Like all ppl that were allowed to use my stuff. (very seldom I said no, ppl just need to ask)
I just hope that you will make it, most ppl don t ...

New Idea by Herr_Lindstrom: 1812 Mod
Herr_Lindstrom said:
This is not a request nor do I have the know-how to mod but, seeing that the mod team here has made numerous mods from the ages of 1755 on to 1860 in North America. I thought it would be appropriate to ask the question, or rather plant the seeds to the idea, of creating a mod that represents the War of 1812 between the British Colonies in Canada and the young nation of the USA.
I am born Canadian and just celibrated Canada Day on the 1st of this month, and watched several documentaries on the Subject, but as far as knowledge of the Uniforms and Firearms used all I know is that the British, French Canadians, and the Navites used British Firearms. I know some history on the subject but I also know how extremely difficult it must be to relay that into gameplay (like the death of Tecumseh).
Just figured I'd mention this and see what anyone's thoughts are. As for modding I'm of little use as my free time is limited. I'm a Drywall Installer and I like my beers after work and I dedicate my weekends to my woman
Ahh I see. No worries my man. Twas no more than an idea and I figured in light of Canada's birthday a few days ago that it was a relavent one
I know the mod team here is only human (such as myself) and we all like our beers (or other prefered alcoholic beverage) after a hard day's work in the big world
Cheers! Btw I love the way the Canadians are done in this mod
Hah!
GAMBY, that was sooooo good!
Really!
It means so much to me cuz I see that what I try to express of my feelings and possibilities are understood and even repeated.
Yep...that is the truth, sorry Herr_Lindstrom ....
And I don t know why some of you keep on talking about "THE TEAM"....
There was a great Gabrilduro s Team once, and expecially on 1755 and part of 1776.
But as I said many times in this 1860s Thread, there is NO TEAM and is just me, gabrilduro, with the help of SOME of my best friends and Supporters.
But besides the big help I got from Azrooh, as a friend, nobody is really helping me on the hard heavy duty of the modding, really.
I don t understand when ppl post comments and address them to "somebody" or the Team.
It is just me, unfortunately ....and that involves a lot of negative issues, unfortunately.
One of those negative aspects, is not being able at the moment to start a new mod that I d love....including a 1812 Usa Gb war, with Tecumseh and Davy Crockett popular heroes, maybe!
Gab
PS...why do I feel like I know you??!!
Did you change your avatar pic or smth?
Herr_Lindstrom said:
ahh forgive me for not entirely understanding the situation. I myself know what it's like to work alone. You do good work even by yourself.
To answer your PS I've posted here and there on the forums here but I've always kept this user name. I also use it on some other forums like TWCenter and TheLordz forums. I believe I've posted on some of your older mod topics a while back
oh boy Gabs gone and done it. hes going to do more mods now lol. Good for you Gab. I'll have to update my signatures again when these are released and people come up with some amazing signatures for em. If anything they will be better than this one as I've seen amazing progression with each mod you've made/ tweaked.
I can only hope you get yourself an amazing team to back you up with your future mods that share the same passion as you do. Even if they are there for a little bit, the less you have to worry about the more you can get done
Ehhh...I never said that I would quit.
Only that I had to slow down a lot!
....that anyway is still much more work done than some "full time" Modders that never ended up with some huge or smal projects!
The list of those MODS ON DEVELOPMENT is so long that I never look at it anymore....
(...do not think that U will go without an official comment on the PREVIEW that U got from me of 0.99T, U know?! )
-Yes BATONG, might be not long, even...
But read what Old Good DELL wrote! He says all there!
It will ALL depend on HOW MUCH help I will get. Forget those huge fatigues that I made in those last years.
Anyway, only GANGSTERS would be still a full GABRILDURO s Mod.
The other one, the Western new Mod, would see me working WITH a friend to a Mod, see
-No JOE...has more to do with my SON personal taste and kind request to his PA'. (He played MAFIA with me and learned about old Italian Gangsters. ) But I also am found of JOE PETROSINO, the biggest Italian HERO in the USA.

That was MUCH earlier than AL CAPONE and ELLIOT NESS Gangster period time, but would fit better in a no cars game such as M&B wb...and would show the GOOD and HONEST part of ITALY.

Italians do it better they used to say in the 70s (foreign girls most, I think )
Which is mostly true on many issues, and surely on some good things as detecting the Crimes as ur father told U....
But they are very good on BAD things such as corruption or inventing new ways to avoid to pay taxes or...new Crimes!
Gab
PS ....btw...nobody interested in a new Gangster Mod?!
