Blood 2 Classic - Total Conversion for Blood
Posted: Mon Mar 20, 2017 04:00 pm
Hello Bloodites.
I´m a bloodite from a long time ago, but never joined the active community until now. It´s a pleasure for me to be here.
I wanted to talk to you about one idea that I´m not sure if someone had before, but that I think could be interesting.
Blood 2: The Chosen had a lot of problems, specially technical, but also artistic. Besides that, I think the idea of Caleb living during all that time, from 1920s to the future was so interesting, and also some of the aspects of the game was amazing.
My idea is to make a total conversion of Blood 2 into Blood engine. By the moment I´m just making some sprites and starting to do some stuff with Mapedit, but I come here to talk with all of you:
- What do you think about the idea?
- If I start to do this mod, what you will suggest me, to do it for the Original Blood that just can run in Dosbox, or to focus in one kind of semi-port, like BloodCM? I wanted it look as much possible like the original, so my first option is this, but the problems with the private sourcecode made me have doubts.
Also I want to show you the first weapon I was working on, based on different sprites. Is a conversion of the Mac-10 Submachine Gun, more well known as "the Uzi of Blood 2". Maybe is too little in comparison with the one in-game of Blood 2, but in general the exagerated the sizes of the guns a lot in the sequel.
Well, and that´s all by the moment, is great to be here into the blood community
