FR on Irrational Games Forums

Blkcasanova247 · June 23, 2010, 01:15:27 PM

Hey there fellow FF nutjobs I'm starting this thread to hopefully start a little movement of us here at FR to participate a lot more over at the Irrational Games Forums. Our first salvo should be letting the folks over there know exactly HOW MUCH material has been produced over the years relating to FF...skins, meshes, skopes, artwork, fanfics and mods. I've reached out to a few of the creators here that I know have done FF related stuff...C6, Unko Man,Volsung and AA to maybe post some of there work at the IG forums.
We have such a wealth of stuff for the IG crew to see and maybe if we are diligent we can spark an interest in this game for them again. A new game is what we want right? Well then it's high time we mobilize and make it known that FR has been keepin the dream alive for years! Let's all get on board and let IG know that we're here to stay! Long Live Freedom Force!

Volsung · June 23, 2010, 01:25:13 PM

If that single spark could bring a third freedom force to live, than it's definitely worth it.
But, I guess marvel and dc stuff is touchy? isn't it?

You should post the 'aged' sea urchin.

Blkcasanova247 · June 23, 2010, 02:59:13 PM

I can't find a shot of her...but once I get home I'll make one.

Blkcasanova247 · June 23, 2010, 03:16:36 PM

Posted. Vol...you should put all that Liberty Bay goodness up.

Volsung · June 23, 2010, 03:28:37 PM

here!

cmdrkoenig67 · June 23, 2010, 06:52:06 PM

She looks fantastic, as does the older Diablo...Very nice.

John Jr. · June 23, 2010, 06:55:54 PM

Great idea, maybe we can get more players.
BTW, Sea urchin is stunning! One of the best faces I ever seen.

BentonGrey · June 23, 2010, 08:03:09 PM

Wow, those are fantastic Vol! I hadn't seen them before.

Blkcasanova247 · June 23, 2010, 08:45:21 PM

We were keeping the Sea Urchin and El Diablo under wraps because I wanted to do a mod featuring them plus one or two other "update" FF originals...it's the reason I'd designed them. I wanted it to be about 4 years after the last game. Volsung is a fantasic artist and really did the designs justice. All this talk is making me want to revisit the idea and get it rolling again. But I think I'd only go forward if I could get "certain" incredibly busy people outta retirement. But this is not the purpose of this thread..."GET YER BUTTS OVER TO THE IG FORUMS....PRONTO AND START POSTING!"

Podmark · June 24, 2010, 03:39:48 AM

That's a great aged Sea Urchin.

Volsung · June 24, 2010, 08:25:29 AM

Casanova kept her locked in his aquarium for 3 years!

lugaru · June 24, 2010, 09:20:16 AM

I posted a bunch of images of my own work, which is ancient and amateurish but ads to the conversation.

I did...

Those skins and meshes are just wonderful...They really look like IG made them for an FF sequel. Fantastic work, guys.

Blkcasanova247 · June 24, 2010, 08:38:24 PM

Thanks guys. Just posted a few more things at IGF that I have in my archives that are meant to be for FF.

docdelorean88 · June 24, 2010, 11:05:37 PM

These designs are great! Vol, did your diablo and sea urchin ever get released? And Cas...WOW! Those are sweet!

Never^^ I curse the 'soon to be released' mods!

Me too!

Trelau · July 09, 2010, 04:19:48 PM

So, i was looking around the irrational games forum, and i saw this

http://irrationalgames.com/community/forums/freedom-force-vs-the-3rd-reich/3-exclusive-characters-on-bonus-disk-freedom-force-vs-the-third-reich/

Are those characters available anywhere? Also, was there anything else on that bonus disc? And how is it that i never heard of that before?
Anyway, did anyone from the IG forum who didn't freedom reborn got attracted here? Or did the creator got feedback from, i don't know, the community manager or something? It'd be nice to know that they know.

Panther_Gunn · July 09, 2010, 05:10:10 PM

It's come up a time or two in the Requests forum. I know all four characters were eventually posted somewhere for download. If you search in Requests, you might find the link....if it hasn't been auto-pruned out of exisitence for being too old. In that case, just ask about it again. I'm sure people remember.

ow_tiobe_sb · July 09, 2010, 06:52:32 PM

If memory serves me, the venerable Protomorph uploaded all four '70s-version meshes to one of his Yahoo Groups. I'll do some digging around and post here again soon.

Blkcasanova247 · July 11, 2010, 12:13:33 AM

I just wanna remind every member here on FR and I mean "EVERYONE" to please...head on over to the Irrantional Games forums...sign up...let's make our presence felt over there! We need to Let 'em know that WE WANT FF3!! If you're creating for FF...let em see it...read it...hear it...whatever you're doing. I think the only way we can even attempt to get another game going is if we make our voices heard. I don't wan't FF to go "quietly into sunset"...do you?

USAgent · July 11, 2010, 02:04:01 AM

Whats the feeling now on posting copyrighted stuff now? I know on their old Freedom Force boards it wasn't allowed, only original stuff got to be posted. Frankly original material would only garner a tiny bit of interest for any possible new FF players while mainstream stuff is what the majority of people would be looking for.

Blkcasanova247 · July 11, 2010, 02:40:03 AM

I've broached the question with IGcollin on posting images of copyrighted characters in the fan-art thread and am waiting on a response. Volsung posted some stuff a week or two ago...so far...no flags have been thrown on the field. Mind you they were some old anime characters. Now get on over there, sign up and start posting.

For starters, posting phrases like the one above would likely get one's Yahoo Group restricted.

I suspect that inclusion of seemingly nude (though lacking anatomical detail) base skins (e.g., Eve's base skin) in that site prompted Yahoo place limitations on access to the group. Of course, Proto or someone else may have taken measures to protect minors from the unintentional shock of opening a TGA file only to discover a certain nature-loving Amazon au naturel.

This is lovely and all...but you 2...hightail it over to the IG forums and register and start posting there as well will ya! Shesh...some folks just can't do as they're told!

Panther_Gunn · July 11, 2010, 06:54:09 PM

I occasionally do as I'm told, but sometimes only in half-measures.
