tehMugwump Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 ya know, from what i understand, there are way more modders than proper artists.Well, judging from what I see over on the Steam Workshop, we can expect a flood of Character mod submissions.

KidneyBeanBoy Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Could be a great showcase if we don't get the usual stick-figure crayola-crayon toons someone threw together in 10 minutes. Those don't have much to showcase anyways, unless they copy-paste a character item or ability from an in-game character or a better mod, so i wouldn't expect too many character mods to be entered.(Slowly shoves quotes for Waverly into a drawer) Edited September 28, 2013 by KidneyBeanBoy Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/28171-halloween-mod-challenge/#findComment-332022 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummie Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 It would also be great if Klei would also release an in house MOD that makes a Halloween Themed HUD. LOL.

The_Cookiebeast Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 hm, if only the modders would get the help of some of the great artists on this forum, that could really produce some worthwhile content. Good ideas must be out there somewhere but without any artistic talent it would be hard to produce anything out of your thoughts like artists do.

TheDanaAddams Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 It is a shame - and still quite a shock, to me - that more of the artists aren't interested in mods. I've put together a few tutorials aimed mostly at artists and beginners, in the hopes that a few would jump ship and get modding, but alas... 'tis still a rare minority.(Which is kind of funny, since at my old college, the game students had at least a good 5:1 Artists:Coders ratio. |D) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/28171-halloween-mod-challenge/#findComment-334249 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good ideas must be out there somewhere but without any artistic talent it would be hard to produce anything out of your thoughts like artists do.Ideas are a dime a dozen. As it is, it takes a whole team to get a decent mod built, and I don't see this changing anytime soon. And, there seems to only be about one or two programmers capable of making anything beyond a tweak to existing mechanics. I think the comparison to MineCraft modding is inevitable. Will modding for DS have the longevity that MC does? That may have a lot to do with whether we see 'big boy' mods or not. Things along the lines of BuildCraft and Aether for MC that actually give you new things to do and new reasons to do them, not just a myriad of new stick-figure copy/paste characters. 1 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/28171-halloween-mod-challenge/#findComment-334287 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malacath Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Ideas are a dime a dozen. As it is, it takes a whole team to get a decent mod built, and I don't see this changing anytime soon. And, there seems to only be about one or two programmers capable of making anything beyond a tweak to existing mechanics.How do you define a "tweak to existing mechanics"? 'cause as far as I can see we have either a lot of stuff that goes beyond "tweaks" or none. And there are definately two modders on this forum who surpass everyone else, but still a dozen of other people who can do decent and new stuff. In that regard I think your view on this community is a bit pessimistic.
