CMplayer Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 Anyone have any ideas they can give to help on the mod of my dreams? A complete candyland conversion for CM. Terrain, vehicles, men, interface, the works. For example: gingerbread houses (very German) tall candy-canes instead of pines, cotten candy forests, rivers of chocolate syrup, swamps of jelly, yellow brick roads etc. Flamethrowers could shoot whipped cream, tanks be painted gaily (to say the least), squads be of children or gingerbread men, antitank teams wizards. Instead of satchel charges they could throw pies, or is that hard coded? And I'm sure we can work in the obligatory clowns (for SMG squads, perhaps) The sound mods, will of course be a cacophony of sproings, bloops, heehees and splats, with a lot of smacking of the lips and itchity glee when tanks are nailed...like bambi, thumper and that nice skunk all jolliferous at once. That's all I can think of at the moment. You get the picture. Any other ideas? --Rett [ 07-23-2001: Message edited by: CMplayer ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soddball Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 I don't know whether to laugh or retch. Sounds - different. I was thinking of doing something hideous to the tiger tank in a Mod, and I urge you to hideousise the land. It could become cult Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterNZer Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 cool idea. but first I'd like to see a total conversion to make it look like Warhammer 40K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 I was working on a Kelloggs cereal mod package, but all I have done so far is the "Tony the Tiger." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtz Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 Check out this: http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/Forum1/HTML/013986.html it is not exactly what you're asking for but it has candy canes and Coca-Cola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just figured with all the talk about 'eye-candy' on that other mod thread, it would be nice to do the real thing. I'm really hoping to get DeanCo onto this one... You've really got to keep working on the Kellogs package. 'Tony the Tiger' rotfl --Rett [ 07-23-2001: Message edited by: CMplayer ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx! That's probably where the idea came from. It's a nice start anyway, if the stuff is still available. BTW, why do you guys always put a burning sherman in the picture when you show off your newest big cat mod? --Rett [ 07-23-2001: Message edited by: CMplayer ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted July 23, 2001 Share Posted July 23, 2001 Candyland Mod? I think someone is either has way too much time on their hands, lost his mind, or has let his kids get the best of him. But seriously, the figures that are carrying Bazookas, 'Shrecks are the same as the regular infanty. And for the last time, PROJECTILES of every kind are HARD-CODED!

Anyway, I see this as a chance to learn how to fiddle with graphics files and have some fun at the same time. Drawing food isn't easy. Try it yourself, and try to make it look _edible_. Good luck. But seriously, the figures that are carrying Bazookas, 'Shrecks are the same as the regular infanty. And for the last time, PROJECTILES of every kind are HARD-CODED! Thx for the info, but it's so sad to hear that. BTS should really do something about it. Max, would you ask them for me? Maybe they'd listen to you. :confused: --Rett [ 07-23-2001: Message edited by: CMplayer ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to take a screen shot that doesn't have a burning Sherman in it. By the way, I did that mod quite a while ago and have not done any since then. As a result my modding abilities have atrophied significantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
