Looking for: Burmecian mod?

Post » Thu May 03, 2012 3:34 pm

I havn't played FO3 in like forever, and my hard disk died and had to be reformatted not along ago - I still have my old saves though. This week I dusted off and reinstalled it, updated and replaced all the key mods I wanted to keep but one of the mods I was using seems to have been pulled from the Nexus. It was a http://images.wikia.com/finalfantasy/images/4/46/FFIX-Burmecians_Concept.jpgrace mod. Asking on the nexus forum just got the topic closed "out of respect for the authors wishes to remove the mod from circulation" - it seems he got a litttttle too much furry hate and went into e-hiding; I can respect he wanted the mod gone to deflect the negative attention he was getting but it's a shame to see a mod lost due to internet trolling.

Searching the internet indicated a mirror on Megaupload... but anyone who's been paying attention to the news the last few months would know the over-zealous feds destroyed everything on Megaupload in a bid to "stamp out piracy" (FO3 mods are illegal now huh?!) , and I couldn't find it anywhere else, it's vanished from the internet.



Does anyone know any last dwelling places for this mod before it is consigned to history along with the contents of the Library of Alexandria? (PM me if you know a source but don't want to say it publiclly. I can understand why some people may not want to)

Could it possibly be one of the races from this mod?:

Ah... After further looking it looks like the author took it down, requested no posting it on other sites, and disappeared. From what I can tell, it was part of Starfox mod, which can be found if you register here: http://sammmersmod.webs.com/. Maybe you can use the models and retexture them.

Hmm I don't immediately see it in the SF gallery. It doesn't help that the author of the Starfox mod (Who also did the Burmecian mod) actually goes by the handle "burmecian" which further confounds searches, trying search for one gets hits from the other and most those hits are dead links anyway :(

If you are a member of the Fallout 3 Nexus, you could contact the author through the comments section of the Starfox mod. He may or may not answer, but it might be worth a try if you want it that bad.
The authors name is not burmecian but RocketLombax.

Well the author of the said Burmecian mod was *called* Burmecian :P - at any rate I sent a message to rocketlombax checking whether he was the same guy, but looking at his profile page I don't think his account is actually actively in use anymore.
