Modding Bounties - Cash for Quality Conversions

[rylasasin]

Actually, another thing that could be added to the list (at some point) would be a fully operational bug-free NVEC compatibility patch

You might be able to convince luthien to do it someday since he already has worked on that mod collection quite a bit. I wouldn't bet on it though.

Thanks for the clarification. This stuff always scares me with their "excitable" legal departments.

A good idea Thermador and I wish I had the skills and most importantly the patience to learn those skills to claim one.  What about creating a bounty pot like the one for the server?

That's exactly what this is.

Thanks TJ

LOL, that's what I get for only reading the recent post summaries and the highlights instead of the whole thread!

Mothership Zeta Crew CLAIMED

Scripts are actually pretty straight forward. FOSE NVSE is required because of one script using con_setgamesetting to change a terminal. It does have a fallback to work without NVSE, but will need to be fixed to work as intended. I haven't gone through dialog or quest scripts yet, but hopefully they're as straightforward as the others were. The biggest issue I've come across (so far) is twofold: Until Sesom figured out the issues with MZ and Jax implimented them in 2.6.3 Zeta was a mess. Additionally all the aliens added by this mod had bad BPD, which can more than likely be dealt with with an updated conversion script (I've already fixed in my conversion of this mod). When I have Mothership Crew working as intended I'll start on the TSC addon.

If you meet thermador's requirement of 'experienced tester' above and would like early access to test you can PM me via the 'Send PM' link to the left under my avatar. It will be at my sole discretion who gets access.

I'm also working on getting permission for hosting a full TTW conversion of this here, so hopefully we'll have that by the time it's ready to release.

Finally, I'd like to reiterate that anybody can show their support to myself or Mr. Batty by contacting Thermador to add to the bounties. This is not required, and is not a condition of getting finished conversions, but is greatly appreciated.

Stuff like this is the reason why I love the community here, much better than the Nexus. Kudos for the initiative, Thermador! I just recently got laid off for a few months, but got my vacation pay to make it less painful. I'll toss in 30$ for the Vurts conversion, I'll do a donation and leave a note inside saying it's from me and for this.

What a great way to encourage mod authors to convert some awesome mods, while being able to support my favorite authors at the same time! (Huge fan Mr.Batty)

Edit: And the deed is done. :)

First I think this is really great, but ...

Couldn't this potentially annoy the mods originators?

Just a bit concerned.

I personally wouldn't see it as such provided permissions had been asked for and granted to do the conversion in the first place. 

Many of the original modders have moved on to other things or take no part in FNV, Lawlder for instance has given me permission to convert any of his mods to FNV or TTW, he has no interest in TTW.

I'm sure that Therm, Jax, Chuck et al have taken this into consideration prior to posting.
