Suggestion - Experimental Project : Warzone 2100 N64

Post by MetalWarrior95 »

I have a suggestion, why not make an experimental version of warzone 2100 for N64?

I dont know how to make a game for N64 or what limitations are and what tools i need and is there any newer games for N64 that died in 1999 or 2000 or maybe truly died in 2001, if there were some persons that made games for N64 even in this milenium!

So i think that it will work if we had people that know to make or convert files into N64 format so that game can run and what things are needed to run game properly(drivers,codes,scripts,etc...)

So that game works in graphical way without including drivers and some other things we need to do:
- less sounds,compresed=a bit lower quality
- lower tris/polygonical models(units,buildings,features...)
- less quality of textures(maybe "cellshaded" type like in cartoons)
- less micromanagment(tech tree)
- less weapons,armors and propulsion
- 15 to 20 missions (to make it longer more objectives/enemies/scripts)
- minimal map size 64x64
- maximum map size 128x128
- Few cutscenes(compresed videos or even 3D scripted cutscenes with specific models and better textures).
- multiplayer with: extreme coded netcode/2 to 4 players

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Weapons that should be in experimental version of Warzone 2100 for N64:
LMG/MMG/HMG - Rocket Launcher/Bazooka - Flamethrower - Light Laser/Heavy Laser
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Armors that should be in experimental version of Warzone 2100 for N64:
Viper/Cobra - Light & Medium New Paradigm Armor - Light Nexus Armor
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Propulsion that should be in experimental version of Warzone 2100 for N64:
Wheel - Halftrack/track - hover - vtol
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So if i or somebody else find tools or even people that will try to do it then we start it and maybe even finish it.

Thats just my suggestion and idea...

I hope you will like it!

Definitely cool, so when will you begin work on this project to make it reality?

EDIT: And thank you for doing this for the community, volunteers like yourself are admired here.

Well for now i think that i could make it for 3DS but only the original version,not newer ones...
I would need some help with models and compresing the textures and probavly low quality or cellshaded type!

Anyway for 3DS i would need to make things smaller...Less tris models,lower texture resolution,lower quality of sound,totally difrient campaing,possible video cutscenes but special format for 3DS...

I need to find a tool,find some people...if someone reads and he is a modder or something then i hope that he will want to help...
So it will be compresed if i get sometime,damn highschool...i dont know about N64,for n64 its just an idea...

n64... Nice idea but kind of useless as the nintendo 64 is quite outdated so it would be a better idea to make it for the DS ;)

N64 is outdated by some parts of hardware but if it used CD-s it would probavly defeat playstation,dreamcast and even PS2!

I dont like PS3...Too much limitations actualy almost all consoles and even handheld consoles have too much limits for homebrew games...there was one good fps homebrew shooter that is by far better then most of games...I dont own DS because i am broke...

I got an idea,warzone 2100 for SNES...My friend got snes,maybe we could make a 2D rts version of WZ2100 with difrient campaing and some vehicles,bird view or "satelite" view!!

Sounds interesting, but I would need to see some results to have an opinion on this. So I can't say if this is a bad or even a good idea.

meh, I'll request an iPhone 3G port in 10 years. Until then the computer version is fine for me.
