[IDEA/REQz] Unique Robot Personalities ( or U.R.P.)

Post » Wed Feb 09, 2011 4:33 pm

I really like some of the Robots in Fallout 3.

I also liked some of the Unique Weapons in Fallout 3, thus http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1296 was created by me because of the weapons lack of personality, or rather it's ability to shine.

So now I'm finding myself wishing something similar for unique NPC robots, there are a few singular mods such as The Megaton Deputies, which rocks my face, but a compliation of these mods would be wicked.

So, I'll throw some ideas for each of the unique robots and unique textures/meshes for them.

Deputy Weld/Deputy Steele: The Megaton Deputy mod is a great start; badges, cowboy hats, etc. That alone is perfect

Wadsworth/Godfrey: Some sort of tuxedo/butler-ish texture would suit them well

Nuka-Cola Plant Foreman: A Nuka-Cola Paint Job

Shakes: Oh what glee I'd have to have this particular Protectron textured with a bartender paint job. And a little bowtie Such, such glee.

Dean Dewey: A professors tan suitcoat paint job and a name tag would be awesome. And a monocle. Oh yes.

RL-3: A Black-Ops Color Scheme with Red Eyes, and a patch to make it compatible with major follower mods (Phalanx, etc)

Mister Buckingham: A bell hop color scheme, and a bell hop's hat.

Andy: A Vault 101 Color Scheme, for sure

So... yeah. My idea. Woo.

Some more ideas:

Sawbones: A texture similar to The T-45b Power Armor and glowy green eyes

Private Jones: A Rivet City Security Armor retex would look awesome

Cerberus: I have absolutely no idea, maybe something of a tanish texture, with some greek graffiti?

Cerberus seems to be commandeered military equipment, so maybe dirty olive drab?

I was thinking because he was reprogrammed by ghouls who live in the History Museum, and maybe because his name was cerberus that he could have the design similar of greek pottery, specifically that of the underworld.

But your idea is good too.

Well then there's only the issue of RL-3. Perhaps we should just leave him alone.

I was thinking about this idea again, and was sad that no other posts came of it. Surely someone would want to bring URP to life?

This does sound pretty cool. After playing with MMM for a while I decided that someone should apply the same idea to robots. I would have started it myself but I could never get Nifskope to work on my machine. :sadvaultboy:

Don't give up, I can't wait for this! I'd suggest leaving RL-3 alone, he's such an important character n'all. Maybe with Dean Dewey he could have one of http://iris.virginia.edu/images/GraduationHat.jpg

I've looked into how to retexture creatures, and while it's a little bit more cumbersome than just a new texture set, it's not a problem and the skins look pretty user friendly. I might take a stab at this.
If anyone has any last minute suggestions, like which one to start with, now would be a good time. :)

By the way, there's an unused black and rusty skin called mistergutsybosoutcast.dds, although it doesn't have any BoS or Outcast symbols on it. It could serve as a base for an old run-down robot.

What I mean is, I can't wait for you to potentially make this.
