Cast Away

[eestikas88]

it would be awesome if you could make the hole IN the surface and not as a static object ON the ground.
------
i remember that i once saw some screens of foxholes that were actually inside the surface (in OFP of course.where else? )

[zombie1]

Yeah, I can animate. but, I would need help configuring things, I suck at Configs

i could help with that if you want, i think i know how to

I can't wait for this to be completed! Ofp is probably the only game where you could pull this off with any chance for realism.

I kinda had an idea like this awhile back, but you crash in the mountains , cold and hunger would be your enemy

But I like your idea way more!

Possible suggestions

1.Make a better sound for the ocean ,as hearing the ofp water sound effect for a long time could drive a person mad
Maybe porting farcrys sound?

2.I don't see a problem with rabbits, they are a hardy animal. And all kinds of animals have been deposited in the strangest places. In many cases it's man trying to introduce new food sources.
Other food ideas
snails,chickens,pigs/boars,monkeys,crabs,bugs,birds,fish of all kinds,shellfish,plants,....hehe your copilot, lol

Maybe text like,( hey you just found some snails in a tide pool), could be used. That way you don't have to model small creatures. They would just go in your text menu.


3.I loved the islands in farcry , maybe ww2 Japanese planes or bases can be strewn about. But that depends where your island will be located Even just a few rusty parts from a old plane could open all kinds of tool or weapon ideas.

4.Weather , one thing that always made wonder about farcry was little to no rain. Guess it was an engine thing.

Now that I look at what I typed it seems a lil much Whatever you do will be fine with me, this sounds like my kinda mission.

Thanks mate
I had the idea of once this was done, remakeing it for the moutins , you read me mind.
Update:
I made a hole for the rabbit to live in

maybe pics later

One more thing, befor I make 20 bazzlion scripts.
Should I make it where you can only carry so much?
Then once u make a backpack or something, you could carry more?
Should it be dynamic cooking? like where you have to let the thing cook for 30's and if it gose over it burns and if it not done yet it could maybe make you sick?

Thats sounds like a good idea, as I would attempt to make or find a container for anything you might want to take back to camp....If my hands would be full In the wild you never know if that piece of potential food will be waiting for you when you come back to it.

As for the cooking, a true saying... even parasites have parasites. All that means is, Parasites can be present in any animal you find, even in the stomachs of parasitic bugs.
When eating any animal you want to cook it good to kill parasites.
A handful of grubs could sustain you for awhile ,but you still would want to cook em until they pop.

As for dynamic cooking thats up to you and your scripting ability's I have no skills when it comes to ofp

It would take an extremely picky person to starve in a true survival situation. But this is a game and we really don't need 100% realism

how do u want to create the tools and weapons, clothing, equipment?
For example: Use piece of wood with stone result= Hammer
I think this is a difficult problem u have.

Give the player a little Survival Guide in the notebook, where u discribe how to make those equipments.

[Marcus4]

I plan to write a little book on those things, that the player will have to look at. I could use some help in makeing a Spear as a weapon, as I said 'I am not that good at configs
