Im thinking about making a segment pack.

What segments are needed?
How many in a pack?
What price?

I need some feedback, is this a good product, will people be interested in numbers to buy a pack like this.
Tell me what you think.

There is a severe lack of any good sci fi meshes, if you ask me there's a nice little niche to fill there.

What Im looking for is the most interested parties, I dont see many sci fi games on the boards, perhaps, there isnt the interest.

I think we have enough flat segment variations. It's just a matter of slapping a new texture on the mesh, which most here can do. Unless you want to make something with a little depth (angled top, cable tray, overhangs, etc...) or do themes that would be time saving, then I don't see the need for more segs.

Themes may be something like Airport, Mall, Convenience Store, etc.

Best.

I'm sorry, my answers are limited. You must ask the right question.

The walls are a bit flat, therefore i mostly create my own.

But i think that people would like it if you made some custom meshes.

just to let u know entietes sell better espeshaly characters

i would luv gangsters and weps
i know mr big shot (thats not his name but thats what i call him lol)
has made one but:
1 in it has logos that are not lisensed in your games e.g. adiads
2 i would like a mafia pack or mobsters that wear sutest like the mafia

seggmants i would like big buildins e.g sky scrapper
price free but some poeple would pay £5 for it if there were like 10 and they were gd

the best way is to make to order like u are and sell it to any one else who whants it

I think there is interest for more sci-fi stuff (heck, I know I would buy a sci-fi pack), but limited resources are keeping people from doing it. It is a similar situation to the medieval pack - there is interest for medieval stuff, even though no one is making any fantasy games. I think people are waiting for the packs to come out first before starting that type of game.

Scifi is a great theme but!...
When making scifi segments its then the only thing to make it
blink out of the original scifi is to make the meshes custom.
And make every type of mesh (wall), or floor.
But then the problem is...entities?
I know there are lots of stock ones that comes along with FPSC.
But it seems that when people use stock entities, that all of a sudden
the game doesnt look that good anymore...

So i would say...if you go for the scifi theme the best thing to
do is....also release some entities with it.

Also a outdoor pack is much wanted....or at least i think so.
But i dont mean terrains etc...i mean city\urban themes.
Like different buildings and other stuff...

But in the end i think the best thing to do for making a pack is...
Mix it with entities so...
Segments & Entities.
That way you have a higher chance of people that want that pack.
Since they dont have to look on the forums for entities that can go
along with the segments.


Cheers,
Cheese Cake.

I agree with Avid, the sci-fi segments are very, eh, bland I guess, they're not super cool or anything and there aren't very many of them. Maybe for sci-fi, some Doom3 type segments. Just on the FPSC engine of course.

Cheese Cake is also, so, so right. Why isn't there an outdoors pack. That is a frickin nessessaty (sorry, spelled that wrong i think), that would also be cool. Espescially old fashoin, war-torn buildings like in Gears Of War. Now that would be awesome.

Some more modern-time grunge stuff would be nice. If you have a XBox 360, play CONDEMNED: Criminal Origins, that will give tons of inspiration for grungy designs.

WW2 stuff in FPSC isn't the best either. But in my opinion, uh, guys, uh, we kinda won that war ages ago.
So I guess you could help the WW2 game creators out too.
