Stupid and funny mods that we would like to see

Gargamel · 03-17-11, 05:36 PM

Could have posted this in the mods forum, but as that's for more serious work, and I don't expect any of these to actually be implemented, I figured it would be better placed here.

Just some light hearted fun here, add your own ideas!

Funny mods I would like to see:

Italian Asdic sound file replaced with one that says "Ciao!" instead of Ping!

A Balz mod where all the crew wear tea cozies, and they sing the orders back to you.

A waterskier mod. (Actually, probably wouldnt be too hard for a skilled modder, use the fisher guy from the pier, and then mod the flags/pennants mod to set it waaay behind the boat).

Deck gun has a "BANG!" flag shoot out of it instead of a muzzle flash with each shot.

Flak gun makes a "Pew Pew!" noise instead of gunfire.

Hello kitty IIa Skin. (I think I've seen one actually).

IVb Night Rider Skin.

All crew replaced by lolcats.

Exhaust blows bubbles.

Laundry instead of pennants on the mast.

Eels bark like a crazy dog instead of motor noises.

Priceless

I would almost pay to see these mods were brought to life.
...almost

Also, I'd like my crew to be pirates. You know, my WE having a wooden leg and a parrot, my watch officer going: "Arrr Galleon spotted cap'n!"

Hmmmmm.... I might try my non-existent modding skills at changing the flags/pennants mod to do a jolly roger...

You know, some of the sound mods would be easy enough, all you have to do is create a file of the appropriate type - .wav, .ogg, whatever - and rename it to match the name of the file you want to replace it with. Then swap it into the game in the same location.

As I recall we did once discuss - in a similarly silly way - the possibility of replacing all in-game radio messages from BdU with messages that say basically the same things, only written in Lolcat....

FOUND IT!!

I've toyed with the idea of rewriting all the messages in Lolcat.

From: BdU
To: U-57

Oh hai! We can haz invaded Polandz. Frants an Englund sez, dey see wut we did dere. Iz torpedo time? IZ TORPEDO TIME!

From: BdU

Ur last report made da bunny cry. Let us know wen ur boat iz not so full of fail, kthxbai!

Oh hay BTW dere is floaty ting at Laz Palmaz, iz called da Korrientez. Haz noms an some esplodey stuff 4 you if u wants dem.

P.S. NEEDZ MOAR AGGRESHUN!

Not a bad idea...

Great way to lull the enemy into thinking you're harmless and then whamo - hit 'em with the bang flag from the deck gun!

Gereke · 03-17-11, 09:09 PM

Replace the existing crew models with ones that look like the cast of Thundercats. Then, replace all of the crew response sound files with soundbytes from the show.

I think a mod that would make the U-boots look like giant cigars would be fun. Replace the conning towers with Zippo lighters, and the periscopes with matches.

To make the water-skier mod even more amusing, replace the torpedo visuals with a skier propelled by a jet pack screaming towards the target.

There's a discussion about adding new images for officer's faces in another thread... and somebody mentioned the 'ofaces folder.'

Which made me think it would be funny to have a mod that changes all your 'ofaces' to:

Dowly · 03-18-11, 11:19 AM

Black Pearl with Keira waving on the deck has been my wish for 2 years now, lazy bastards.

krashkart · 03-18-11, 11:28 AM

A Star Control mod. I don't remember which alien race it was in the first game that pronounced 'human' as 'hunam', but the radio messages would surely be more entertaining in their language.

Lol, I don't think I could handle modding every message in stock or GWX. But modding WB's Mission Orders Lite might not be too bad.
