I was thinking of modding the Alpha beta textures to make the game bioshock themed, i thought i could keep the overworld more or less the same, but i want to focus mainly on the nether, because in bioshock, Rapture and the overworld are very different, i was going to turn the nether into rapture, make the lava into water (most likely polouted water or freezing, harmful water) which makes sense now that the nether denizens are immune to its effects, Edited like a pro :tongue.gif: anyway, both me and mottsap took a looong break from this, so i asked him if he was ready to start it back up again, he said he would, but he lost his files (probably just an excuse to slack off :tongue.gif:) anyway, i have done soem progress on the pack, and intend to get a beta release out soon, here is what i have so far and what needs to be done, everything marked with an asterisk (*) is finished
leather armor: Jack's clothes
Diamond armor: (need some help with this one)
Gold armor: (need help with this one)
chainmail armor: big sister
iron armor: delta*
workbench: U-invent*
furnace: hackable power to the people station*
chest: storage crate
mushroom soup: full ADAM syringe*
soup bowl: empty syringe*
bow and arrows: lightning hand and EVE syringes that shoot lightning bolts (electro-bolt) or gun (plasmids are funner :tongue.gif:)
sword: wrench, crowbar, lead pipe, melee weapons, type depends on material used
shovel: havent decided yet,
hoe: plant plasmid? idk
pickaxe: i was going to change pickaxe into a big daddy drill, everythng is subject to change tho
jukebox: old timey record player
ghasts: giant flying turrets, or columbia artillery shells,
pigmen: fellow big daddies
other mobs: escaped splicers
glass: portholes
paintings: rapture and columbia propaganda
signs: Neon signs (if anyone knows how to change the font color, that would be great)
Mushrooms: ADAM slugs
Torches: Light Bulbs, or just torches, i likes them as torches but what the hay
jack-o-lanterns: streetlights
pumpkin helmets: custom big daddy helmet with porthole, for spooky ambience or to make you FEEL like a big daddy
Netherstone: thinking of changing nether to columbia, although i think this will fail too
LightStone: to fit with columbia, clouds
SlowSand: Lush Rapture Columbia carpet, you cant run on it, you want to enjoy its plush fluffyness
to prove im even doing this, i have a picture of me in iron armor with Charlotte from FCM on my shoulders (reskinned as a little sister)
Do... Do you think you can pull this off? This could be incredible.
i have a firm belief that i could do this, its just a bunch of doodles on a computer program, how hard could it be? (ironically, thats on the list of famous last words ) but anyway, i CAN do this, but im not the best at pixel art so i cant do it all in one sitting and have it be jaw-dropping i will release a few preview here and there, alpha, most things done, or all things minimally done and beta, most things done, but not all things perfected, but i will work hard, and when done, this will kick [insert ammount here] of ass!
Splendid. I await your first preview eagerly. Also, as a side note, I would rather be a normal human than a big daddy, armor-wise. This is not to say I would dislike big daddy armor, but I would still rather it be somewhat of an option.

I tried being extremely civil and British for a while. Don't worry, I'm better now.

sure thing, since bees polinate it actually makes sense, or since it says they come from the veins, i could make a bloody beehive for comic effect :tongue.gif:

i did mention that the leather armor will be splicer clothing sharp suits, funky masks, how about i change chainmail armor to an alternate splicer outfit?
in the way of previews, i have the big daddy pumpkin in production, but i just realised that the jack-o-lantern uses the same side and bottom textures, so the jack-o-lantern will be a streetlight, sorry if i disapointed anyone wishing otherwise
If you're going for replicating plasmids rather than farming then I'd suggest making the dirt some sort of metal and the hoe a wrench or crowbar. You could pry off the first layer of metal and find machinery used to duplicate it underneath. Just my two cents.
If you do that, you need the jingle to play every now and then. Sort of like a jukebox but without a record. Would be an interesting mod.
In the garden we are growin', many changes will be flowin'. If you wanna be amazin' see the flowers we are raisin'
i think, since ghasts scream every few seconds, i could mod the ghast sound to make it into the jingle, it wont work on the overworld, but its a start
here is the checklist of what i have and what needs to be done
Pig Daddies: skin complete, drill needs work
ADAM soup: complete, syringe needs work, mushrooms not yet slugs
Big daddy pumpkins: complete, need to mod other sides
melee weapons: in progress, items are as follows
iron sword: crowbar
stone sword: lead pipe
gold sword: drill
wood sword: nothing yet, may be changed to golf club
diamond sword: still nothing, will be changed to wrench
paintings: some work, some fail horribly, may just redraw them altogether
Nether changes: nothing quite yet
Ghasts: will be changed either to columbia cannons or armed bathospheres
other tools (picks, axes, hoes): nothing yet
flint and steel: nothing yet, will be changed to a fire icon to represent incinerate!
arrows: complete, they have been changed to EVE syringes, no work on the model yet
inventry: nothing yet, planning on changing it to Jack's wallet, and putting a picture of his parents in the background of the character preview window
minetracks: been changed to mini roads, clever aint it?
Also, what do you think grass, dirt, trees, cobblestone 'n' the sort will look like?
i said i wish to keep the overworld the same, im changing the nether into rapture, i have asked some of my friends what i should do for some things and its decided, these will be completed sometime in the next week or so (no promises! im not near as talented as notch!)
fix Pig Daddy drills (they face up)
arrows changed to lightning bolts (the item arrows are EVE, but the worldmodel is still arrow)
nether look changed, i will most likely be yanking the carpet texture from creative and putting it over mud
replacing surface mobs
ghasts need to be replaced with columbia cannons
everything else
like ive been saying, im not the best, hell, i dont even qualify as "the rest" but im trying really hard,
heres what is done
Pig daddies
Pumpkin helms
some (failed) paintings
melee weapons
electro bolt and EVE
little sister syringe and ADAM (go hit splicers with it and then fill it, that should be a mod)
minecart roads (i dont think rapture had cars, did it?)
i know i know, i have been working all this time and i havent got alot done and ur all "son, i am dissapoint" well to that i say, SHUT UP YOURE NOT MY REAL DAD! [dials phone] hey dad? come pick me up "im busy" FFUUUUUUUUU
no but rly, im working on it, any ideas would be appreciated, im looking for some
