I was never very good at Transcendence modding. I don't even play the game anymore. I really don't know why I'm here. But anyway, I was just wondering if it would be worth the trouble to get out my mind-WD40 and remove the rust from my modding skills. I was thinking of making a mod to make Transcendence a more humorous type of thing, sort of a counterpart to Atarlost's new mod. Like I'd replace the laser firing sound with "Pew pew pew!" type things. Maybe turn the Iocrym into a Shoop-Da-Whoop.

Anyone have an opinion?

It would not hurt a bit of humor and also some eye-catching image (I'd like to see the young lady who whispers her name in my ear after defeating Arco!) Or listen to a few seconds of a song (at our option) when you cross a stargate!
Or ......
Good work!

It doesn't matter. you are here because we are a small awesome community of people having fun with Transcendence, all together.

I recently watched a vid on YT where someone replaced EVERY sound with his voice effects. it was hilarious!
This would actually be quite easy to do, just overwrite all the sounds with your own and they can be dropped in or taken out at will.
Coming soon: The Syrtian War adventure mod!
A Turret defense genre mod exploring the worst era in Earth's history.
Can you defend the Earth from the Syrtian invaders?
Stay tuned for updates!

Well, pepole seem interested, so I guess I'll work on it. I can't find a particular sound though, and it contains a slightly dirty word, so I can't type it... The joke that uses it would be so funny though, I don't think I could do the mod without it.

If you can't type it what makes you think it would be appropriate to put it on Xelerus?

It was just an extremely funny sound clip I heard somewhere, and I thought of a hillarious use for it. Problem is, it contains a name for a type of chicken, and therefore I cannot type it.

I guess Atarlost is right. Darn him.

If you need a reason for staying, Schilcote, how about that selectable warp drive mod I was asking you about earlier in the year? Or better yet, teach me how to make "selectable" scripts and devices; I still have trouble figuring that one out...

Good, clean humor is as essential to life as living itself. I pity those with no sense of humor; they are not happy. Whatever mod you choose to do Schilcote, it will be soundly appreciated, and added to my database of nearly every Xelerus mod since 2008...

Oh... uhh...
Umm...

Umm...

I think I have that somewhere around here.


EDIT:
I think I'm going to wait until 1.0 comes out to start working on humor mod. I've done some work on the graphics (photoshopping hearts and smilies on the CSCs, stuff like that), but I don't want to have to restart my code base as soon as 1.0 comes out...
