Title: The Holiday Mod - a preview
Post by: Overdose on December 03, 2008, 04:22:11 am
It was suggested on the SST forums that someone should make a holiday themed mod. Well here it is.

This is only a preview with a few selected changes, nothing is "officially final." This will only work on servers that choose to host it or are unpure, much like Superpie's Visual Mod.

Looks pretty sweet from looking at the textures, although I haven't had a chance to see it ingame yet. Your link is broken btw. Good luck and please make more!

The repeater in the screenshot kinda sucks.

Like I said nothing is final. The repeater is one of the hardest things to make a good texture for because when it gets applied the contrast goes way up. I might just stick with an energy style texture.

I like this idea. I think small, optional visual change mods are a good way to keep freshness in 1.1 tremulous without screwing the gameplay up. Holiday themes are something we've been attempting on occaision at Puretrem as well, so I definitely agree and support this type of idea.

I think it would be better to have visual upgrades as bonuses you get when you stage up.
