Monster Hunter/Lost Planet Esque Mod?

[Lunaxe]

I've come here to inquire of you who have a higher knowledge of Quake's capabilities concerning a concept that's been pressing on my mind. I'd like to make a Quake mod that could have large monsters (is that even possible?!) and melee weapons, preferably all in first person, which is why I turned to Quake modding. I have experience mapping and some in modeling (using MisfitModel3D) but would like to form a team who hold their own ideas and interests. Any input? Even possible? Thanks for everything!

You and this guy need to find each other:

Actually there are maybe 25 modders that need to find each other that have either registered here or have something going on at forums.inside3d.com

Hmmm is it just an environmental addition there? He obviously knows coding and how everything works, are you suggesting I confer with him concerning the plausibility of my ideas? I'm sure he could help, I just don't want to be completely unrealistic in wanting to do this haha

I'm just saying there are enough various ppl thinking about making projects.

I wasn't suggesting anything specific, except there have been 6 or so of these type of posts lately.

Ah, i understand haha. Perhaps some collaboration is in order...

I like the idea, i am a big fan of Lost Planet and Monster Hunter games
However, i suck at Monster Hunter :p

Haha yea it would seem that the general gamer community does, especially those hooked on mainstream CoD-esque types, but its all good man if i can just form a team and get this cracking, especially models and animations, we'd be sure to adapt it to the general community. I had hoped to include modern weapons and melee, like frickin huge swords (who doesnt love those) and sleek, powerful, unique guns. I tried registering at inside3d, even emailed their admin, but its blocked... id imagine for preventing bots and tools who dont know shit

I think inside3d registration was coled because of the massive spambot attacks.
About CoD: I only play BlackOps becuase i love the Zombie mode

I figured it had to do with that... too bad, it's got a great user base otherwise! And yesss zombie mode is so fun, although i prefer the WaW classics. I used to be on the Nazi Zombies: Portable team over at MODDB actually, school just took me away from it unfortunately. Their Ju[s]tice member is a great mapper so hes taking good care of them.
