Hey guys, any updates on this awesome mod?

Is this mod officially dead?

Man, were talking about WillieSea here.
No. It's definitely not dead.

I was taking a break for a while. I am working on 2 other mods and getting psyked back into working on this monster of a mod. Its so complex, I had to take a break and do something easy.

My new mod which I have not announced here yet is the Levelers Chamber which will replace my http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1770 mod. This new one is located in a sewer through the grate just up the road from the bridge. I am really happy with how its turned out. There is even a 'resetting' target range that gives you experience to boot.

My other mod is the Rreturn to Vault 13: Solar Scorcher mod. Its complete, I just need to finish the gun texture.

Awsome, Thanks for the update!

Great to see you still modding, Willie. I'm sorry I had to drop out of testing before, I had a lot going on with my father's illness and other things. Now hopefully I can help test this mod again whenever you release a new version. Good Luck on your other projects as well!

how goes work on this willie

Funny you should ask. I am about finished with my Johnny Appleseed mod and was about to post the WIP topic for it now.
I am still dreading going back into the vault to work, so I am makeing the apple tree in the wastes right now.

I have done a few things with this, just to keep it fresh in my mind, but it really is a very large and complex mod. sigh!

I know your currently working on your halloween mod, but I've got a couple good ideas for the simulator!

Security staff training programs! Each taking place in a simultion of what the vault would be if it were populated!

1: Following overseer's orders in cracking down a rebellion.
2: Protect the vault and its residents from a forced entry [Enclave, Super mutents, Chinese soldiers, other fictional enemy Vault tech thought up!]
3: Beating up local youths with a nightstick, but don't kill them.

Each simulation would be a fun little distraction, and really only gaining the experience gained from killing, or persueding when nessary.

You could have it train your weapon skills too, but only the first time you run it so not to make it too easy to gain them!

2. This already occurs. If you leave the vault doors open, there is a chance that raiders, slavers, enclave or creatures will wander down the tunnel entrance.

A 'Vault uprising' might be a fun simulation. Something to think about.

Now that 'Nightmare Realm' is finished for Halloween, I am working on this again. My goal is to have it done by Christmas. With any luck!

I am putting room bounds in the existing cells now so they will render better in the game. This will increase the FPS considerably in some cells.

Awesome news for sure I believe I still have the last beta test stored away on my external drive lol.

Just an idea to throw out there since you are on a holiday kick. Either a room, or even a simulation could be a holiday room. Maybe you could make a selection by pressing a button, or maybe a terminal selection could allow us to select which holiday the vault gets to celebrate?

I had thought about the 'holiday' decoration selection, but there are so few resources for FO that it makes it difficult.

I was thinking about putting a 'game' in the living quarters. Sort of like pachinko. Its in the idea stage now, I will see how it works.

Good point about the resources lol. No biggie

I like the idea of a game, a little treat for us people that don't have New Vegas (Yup, that is me)

The game works!

A ball starts at the top and bounces around until it gets to the bottom. The player controls a paddle at the bottom using the mouse. If the ball hits the paddle, you win. Otherwise you loose. Its pretty fun!
I have more work to do on it before I relase any pictures though. I should have it done tomorrow with any luck!

Okay, here is the animation of the partially finished game.

Flashing lights! Ha, that is amazing and looks very entertaining Great job!

Here is the mini game 'Catch the Ball'. Do you have a better name?

And Razorwire has allowed me to use the slotmachine he made. So I had to retexture it and here it is in the vault. Works great too!

Blaze of Glory ( or Blaze of Gorey )
Light my Fire

Two of my suggestions, but I like the name as is also I am so happy that Razorwire let you use the slot machine!

http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=14370 in case you are interested (but I am sure you are already aware of them).

I have seen that, yes. The only thing I could use would be the bowling resources. We will see...

Here is a better view of the 'Catch the Ball' game.

And here we are sitting down in front of the slot machine.

Each credit is 100 caps. The Ball game costs one credit, and can win you 2 credits.
The slot machine will take from 1 to 5 credits. With the usual payouts.

And here we have a bowling alley.

Yeah, and it works too. I am using invisible explosions to send the ball down the alley.

Holy Bleep you are fast I love it! That carpet is amazing and really gives the place some character. Gosh WillieSea, I am very impressed over such a small little thing lol

The Catch the Ball game is a lot bigger than I thought it would be, so totally cool. I also love how you dressed up the slot machine area with lights, really make it look like it belongs there

Shoot, with all the features in this Vault that you have done so far, who needs New Vegas, not me

I agree, I have no reason to buy LV just yet. Especially since I don't like Steam.

On to the bowling alley.
You click a button to start the game. You are set in position where you place a ball on the floor. You look down to set a fake explosion off which sends the ball down the alley.
About halfway down the alley, there are a set of lights. By turning your view, you select which light you want to set the 'second' fake explosion at. As the ball passes them, you look down again to set off a corrective fake explosion which hopefully sends the ball smashing into the pins.

You will get credits based on how many pins you knock down. Its actually pretty fun.

As with all my mods, this will NOT require the script extender FOSE.

Willie this is some amazing stuff, if you need any beta testers i'd love to test it for you!
