Title: Donation = Skins/sprites?
Post by: Tetris Lock on January 10, 2010, 09:02:14 pm
I'm probably sounding like a total douche, but I heard you get to pick a skin/sprite if you donate a dollar or two, is this true?

This is not true. We don't give out items, skins or character boosts for money.

They have a special char for it that is 100% roleplay, involved in some official roleplay event. So it is quite rare.

A game master or admin gave them the skin. If you meet one ingame, you might can get one aswell. But keep in mind, we have rules there too, such as no power armors, no animals or plants, etc. Also we don't revert skins... and most skins have a lot disadvantages.

I saw someone as a brahmin on the last server..

And what do you mean by disadvantages? As in like armor won't show up?
Title: Re: Donation = Skins/sprites?
Post by: Izual on January 10, 2010, 09:23:32 pm
No armor, sometimes no running ability, and often no big guns/energy guns, or pistols only, etc.

Blue pants raider would be cool to play as, dunno what I'd do for role-playing with it, though.

No idea for Long Haid Dude/Bald Dude release.

Handyman, ask GMs, if you cross some in-game. And we won't make such a list of flaws for every skin, it would be a waste of time. We are not skin-givers. If you ask us in-game (And don't send requesthelp for it, you'll never get one =p), we can talk a bit about the skin you want, but that's all.
It's still a rare thing ;)

The thing I don't understand is, why every player from startup has the vaultdwellerskin, not the default tribesmenskin like in the beginning of FO2?
Is it engine related, or a decision the devs made?
Title: Re: Donation = Skins/sprites?
Post by: Lexx on January 10, 2010, 10:12:03 pm
It's because not all animations for the tribal are available (big guns, rifles and pistols, as example). This has been said already many times.
Title: Re: Donation = Skins/sprites?
Post by: Handyman on January 10, 2010, 10:13:19 pm
It' will be like this:
1. You are tribal, so you can't use armors , and only small guns
2. and what's after ?? you still become an Tribal and only be able to be tribal ;))
3. Blue pijamas can use everything

i use a strictly energy char.so i always thought enclave skin would be cool.not the armor boosts jus the look for the sake of diversity as everybody is talking about always.

It's ok, I heard stupid rumors that the missing sprites already had been added, so that's why I asked.
Title: Re: Donation = Skins/sprites?
Post by: Lexx on January 10, 2010, 11:10:19 pm
Some have been made, but not even close to everything that is needed.

A nice progress has already been made. If anyone would like to help with making a tribal skin or any other skin, here (http://fonlineskinproject.freeforums.org/) is where you can.

No particular skills are needed, only patience. If everyone from this forum makes only 3 - 4 frames, the project will be completed. Still it's an enormous amount of repetitive work for just one person.

So every little contribution will be appreciated.

Nice! Dunno why I missed this. I downloaded the files I need and read the tutorials there, it works perfect.
Choose the "HFPRIMFA - HAMMER_IDLE (female)" and made it till the evening. But (sorry, it's a bit crossposting :/ ) is it my endless dunless or are those topics locked? I can't put a reply there when I'm registred. Also - I didn't know that this is so much work, but its repetive and I like repetive work. :D I make more in the future.

I don't know in which topic you tried to put your reply, since announcements are certainly locked. I've just checked the projects topics and everyting seems fine. If you continue having problems with posting there, contact the admin.

I would also strongly reccomend you to post your work here (http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=50693&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0) as well, so everybody know what you are currently working on. It's an NMA modding subforum, everyone willing to contribute in making new animations is gladly welcome.

If you can get one just by asking a GM, I really can't see why they're not allowed for everyone. Just give a few doctors the script, limit players to human characters, explain the limitations, and we have a much more interesting looking wasteland.

If we would make scripts for it, this would be permanent. But we don't want to make this permanent, especially because stuff will change in time anyway.
