SP Modern Fantasy World Of Steam

[Wander]

Forgive me. I'm with you all the way. Totally Agree. Yup.

I had an idea for a mod almost exactly like this, until I stumbled upon this thread and said 'Hey- someone's actually organizing it.' And so it's like everything I ever dreamed of with even more ideas coming from everyone. Never thought of steampunk bikes or robots.

Artwork is on it's way, I'll get it up tomorrow or the day after.

i know what your feeling  unfortunately my exams are startingon friday and last till the 26th so im not going to be able to do much if any on this, but i will post up what i do as i go along, try to keep it alive if you can, and (wander) feel free to start a new post in my name for this mod if you wish

 

[Wander]

Okay- I'll start putting pictures up in a while because I don't have many done, so I'll post them as I finish them.

 

[Bite Me]

ill look forward to it, youve rather got me looking forward to seeing these 

 

[shinychaos94]

Is this in development?
I can't tell.

 

[Wander]

This is in the early planning stage. What other thread would it go in?

EDIT: I'ma start fresh on these pictures, and I'll make a new post with waaay more sketches in it.

http://xs139.xs.to/xs139/09204/calvalry_officer418.png- Just some clothing ideas, based off of one of IYORT's models. I meant to put some sort of a swrily, refined, pattern on the outfit, but I forgot. I'm unsure about this one- it doesn't quite look too steampunkish.

I've a few variations on this in terms of clothing, so you could have multiple ranks or roles. For the hat, there's a couple of musketeer hats in the OSP helmets pack..

http://xs139.xs.to/xs139/09204/soldier201.png- A musketeer/infantry soldier for a British/French faction. Still not too steampunkish, more just like a plain ol' Victorian soldier.

Dain Ironfoot put some 18th century uniforms out on OSP, that might fit this...

http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,55616.0.html

Dunno about the hat, maybe try the OSP helm pack, I've a selection of headwear in my pack too, so give it a browse once released.

http://xs139.xs.to/xs139/09204/pirates202.png- Airship pirates. Complete with outfits that are a cross between early Victorian, pirate, and WW1 pilot clothes. I want you to be the judge of these, because I'm not sure whether they're the look you're going for or not.

I've made a ww2 style leather pilot jacket and cap (sadly lacking goggles) which you could use for these.

 

[Wander]

Thanks! I'll probably make some of the models on my own, though, too.

I've now posted my steam punk OSP pack. You can find it here:

well it looks like it wont be fully in developement until may the 26th, but after that im going to put up a recruitment thread and get it going.

I wish you the best of luck with this. That new star wars calradia mod has a pretty interesting take on manning your own airship (of sorts.. well it's a spacecraft, but something could be worked out there) with your own crew, and I have yet to play a mod with naval battles implemented in it, but perhaps that's a start. I like the whole theme of steampunk, but I just can't really see airship-to-airship battles working in any way if not boarding actions.

 

[Wander]

Oh, I believe we can make boarding options for naval battles, from sky, to sea, to undersea. Can't wait to check out the OSP pack! Sea battles could definitely be gangplanks, sky battles could use either gangplanks or hatches, and undersea battles could use hatches.

I'm redoing some of the pictures, and I'll try and get a ton up next time... And please reserve me a spot as a modeller and concept artist, and maybe a texturer (though I do not yet have photoshop). I will work on modelling the models in my sketches once the sketch is approved by Bite Me, or anyone really.

 

[Deon]

Here's a preview of the female robot (I've photoshopped the segments together to save time)...

The pattern details are actually renaissance, but I've stuck them in with an art deco type design (although the pattern on the chest segment is from a vintage radio).
Shes got them on her face too but the texture's too stretched, it looks okay though so I'm not that bothered. The whole art deco robot thing is based on Metropolis...

It's not really any originality on my part but least it's new for Calradia.

Oh my god. I just saw your model (without the picture below) and was going to ask "have you ever watched a...", then I saw the cover.
Woah, it was 1927 or 1928, right? Yeah, 1927 (googled). It was one of the "sci-fi" films I watched when I was a kid. I just couldn't stand not to comment on this one. METROPOLIS FTW. Now make her a leader of rebellious workers.

P.S> You did the main thing: while her shape doesn't fully copy the original, I recognised it immediately, which is amazing considering the fact that I saw this film about 15 years ago.

She's included in the steampunk OSP pack I released today...

Feel free to download and give her life within your own mod, I'd agree that she'd make a good leader for the rebellious workers.

I also hid some other querky stuff in there, in amongst the mass, but that's for your own discovery.

I cant wait to see these sketches, and ofcourse you will get a place, youve been in it since the beggining!!
anyway im rather tempted to just let anyone show me what theyve done then try and use it, and get some experienced modders to help encorporate it, that way it will be full of really good ideas and tons of new stuff to discover.

 

[Wander]

Sorry I'm taking so long. I think it'd be good to have an idea of some of the factions before I do drawings, so I know what to draw. You have any ideas?

 

[Beowulfdude]

Looks fun

 

[Bite Me]

sorry i had a d.t. exam today then a maths one on thursday so this is the first time ive checked this thread in a bit. right heres my ideas for the factions, im going to do some new polls for names, and if anyone has any suggestions please submit them, but heres the ideas i came up with:


Some sort of underwater people, keep to themselves, do not trade but raid the cost/islands everynow and again, player can be friends with them, they are to be like underwater pirates.

Sky pirates (steampunk mod with airships and no sky pirates would be a let down!!!) player can become one, will act as a faction with a single base.

An empire of some sort, using loads of armour and close range weapons aswell as the guns (biggest faction in game, normal peoples clothes are victorian)

A kingdom that uses the old weapons, bows and suchlike on a single island covered in forest.

An asian style faction which is very far ahead technologywise the not so bad guys..

A demon faction that comes in later on and you have to drive off (the really bad guys) have only close range weapons and their sky ships are dragons??

thats what i thought anyway so just post if you have any other ideas

Why are the asian faction bad guys?


-------------------------------------------

I've been playing with some ideas for the next steam punk OSP pack.

As wander's thinking about sketches and stuff, I thought I'd share one....

I want to make a golden tiger guardsman, with claw weapons. The tiger mask is for the upgrade but I think I might go for golden face paint instead.

I find it helps when sketching ideas, for M&B modding, to look at what you've already got, how you could adjust them and develop a mini concept.
I don't have much talent in the modeling side of things, so I tend to work my ideas over native models (saves rigging too).

This armour will probably be a reskin of the body textures. I've nearly completed the head model already (it just looks abit sloppy).

I thought these troops might make nice mercenaries.

RACIST! Naw, I'm just kiddin' ya.

Why are the asian faction bad guys?

Cause we steal American Jobs. 

(Probably like RA3, where the Empire is a "bad guy" in a sense)
