Nice way to think outside the box, bada ding --Red Comet 09:58, 15 Mar 2006 (PST)

Looking really nice, btw is this book of yours will focus mostly on coding (I hope not), or on modding in general?--RP 17:41, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)

The book will cover all aspects. It's a bit daunting to do a book that covers it all, but it will go into coding of entities, weapon modifications, game customization, mapping, prop model making, weapon modelling, etc. The main thing I want to do is get people to actually do stuff - even if it's just make a cube in XSI and create a "crate" prop model with it, or add a bit of code to the RPG so when the crate missile explodes, it spews wood gibs. --Holtt 10:30, 5 Jun 2006 (PDT)

Website

Funny mod :) Does it have a website? --dutchmega 01:34, 3 Jun 2006 (PDT)

Not exactly but it does tie into my book - wehich is horribly late by the way :( I've posted some things now and then at http://www.vintnerd.com --Holtt 10:28, 5 Jun 2006 (PDT)

Tip on industry names

To make it even more 'fun', you could name the manufacturers of the crates "Crates Corp." and the one of the barrels "Barrels 2 Build", or something like that :-) --CrabbyData 01:22, 5 Jun 2006 (PDT)
