Just waitin for next release.

This is actually similar to an Idea I had.

I wanted to bring Russians/Slavs(Both Soviet AND Democratic varieties,) Arabs, and South Pacificans(Not just Austrailians and New Zealanders, but Polynesians too.) Also a Nation consisting completely of Thinking Machines(And a single human base called Ambassador base. I wonder if one could script the robots to fly ships. Would need new voices too.)


I like what you are doing and will play the hell out of this when it's done. And, depsite the fact that I'm from New Jersey, if you ever use custom voices, keep the Irwinish idiots to a total complete minimum, but if you must, make'm pirates so I can kill'm. Those backwoods morons give aussies a bad rap. Most, if not the vast majority, are very civilized hard working people just trying to make their way through life.

Aegis, here, couldnt be botrhered re-registering
Could you make the mod a mod script?
And whats the latest version, Im from south australia (Morphett Vale) myself and would love to burn around and carry 'Booze around in my liberty cruiser (half the reason for a mod script 'cos then i could use it with victor's MP mod, which by the way kicks ass and everybody should give it a try.)

Would also love to help, What area in australia do the aussies here live in?
I love the idea of victorian police taking pop shots on other people, almost like a pirate faction lol...

Anyone there...? Did anyone check out the Bug Fix for New Australia? Hobbie, sshan has updated his 2D System Editor...go to his site to download it. It's a good idea to ALWAYS have the latest version.

Hobbie, I just read the entire section, Great idea. I have Got a number of ideas for the ships and weapons if you want them. I've Got about 8 different ships(there all named after australian Parrots) and some kick-ass weapons. Oh and you know how on the alaska mission how walker blows himself up with Gravimetric Mines?, We need to be able to buy them.

Also, I live in QLD so I might be able to help you with that

Please get back to me on this, I had my own ideas for a mod ('Arania'(read the thread in the announcement forum)) but nobody replied

victorian freelance freak#@$%
Q. what's the name of the main aussie fl.sever?

Post Mon Sep 08, 2003 4:34 am

Just for the record, New Australia Needs to be around Corsair Difficulty Level or higher because most of the Good stuff that people use that you put into the mods are to bloody powerful to be a challenge

(I had an eagle equipped with 2Heavy flashpoints and 2 DIAMONDBACKs in NY once, no challenge whatsoever, even the corsairs were wimps)

I just came up with a new Gun idea (stole it from Half Life) for a Gluon Gun that does kick-ass damage, lemme know what you think, oh, and a friend thaught it was called a glutton gun(molten fat! ) that would be pretty good for aussie, molten chicken guns, beef, lamb, snake etc. Or maybe a beer gun (make the NPCs drunk or sommin').

I really want to help yas, Even a Noob has gotta learn

Get back to me on this

so you want a ute eh?

Holden or Falcon, what about a SSS commodore ute with mags and a airbrushed colour scheme?

Vic Bitter anyone? "when you work all day in the hot sun - you sure do develop a thirst" and a good cold beer is a can of vic......... yumm!

I have some models you can maybe use, and given time could do a ute..... lol, what a trick, a ute fill of Vic Bitter, I reckon I could even do a Vic Bitter tex, shouldn't be hard.......

Btw I hail for Melbourne.......

Models anyone?

Interested .... email me.....

some ideas you have there I've also included in my mod, beer, the Commodore SS, Monaro, XR-8's, and lots of other well known cars are in as ships (though not all in the current Alpha).

Now I've started working on my own models and need a texturer though when they're done.. and then someone to get them imported to Freelancer fiels because I dont have milkshape and ive used up my trial

Hopefully hobbie reads this... There are some tutorials on how to create factions in the tutorials forum that you might want to peruse. they are added to the tutorial database/compilations i think.... either that or search for faction tutorial with my name under member name.....

That should allow you to add Good ol' aussies to the fray!

I can script, edit dll, system edit/create, modify ini etc etc if needed...

later
