Looking for a Vault Boy icon...

Post » Wed Sep 29, 2010 11:04 am

I could've sworn there was an existing icon showing Vault Boy as kind of a mad scientist with crazy Einstein hair, but I can't seem to find it now. It may have been from an earlier Fallout game. I was hoping to use it as a base for a new perk icon.

Anyone know the one I'm talking about?

I know it exists. I'm seeing if I can find it now...

I think I remember, it's from the GOAT. The slide that goes with Question 1: You are approached by a frenzied vault scientist, who yells, "I'm going to put my quantum harmonizer in your photonic resonation chamber!" What's your response?

Found it!

Ah, I think you're right (http://stashbox.org/952389/loading_goatslide01.jpg). Vault Boy is not the scientist, but I think that's where my recollection was coming from. I might still try to work from that, or maybe just the http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Science.

Thanks!

If you open the textures BSA there is something called I think Slides01 or something similiar. It contains slides for questions 1-8 in the goat exam, so you can copy and past the mad scientist one over and use that.

I posted the exact path and filename above. It's textures\interface\loading\loading_goatslide01.dds for this particular slide. But if he's gonna use it he's gonna need to crop out all but the mad scientist.

...and it also should've been clear that I had already found it myself, since I posted an image of it...


Anyway, http://www.fallout3nexus.com/imageshare/image.php?id=15760. I'll probably go back and sharpen the lines up a little, but I think it's good enough for now.

Thanks again Kristoffer! Who knows how long it would've taken me to remember where I saw that guy ^_^
