Ideas For My UT2K7 Mod?

I am going to be starting on my first full case mod, which will be modeled after the game Unreal Tournament 2007, coming out later this year (Screenshots). I have some ideas on what it's going to look like, but I still need a lot more ideas before I can start it.

Some of my basic ideas:
- Make the front or top of the case look like the rocket launcher.
- Tilt the case on its side about 15 degrees and make the base out of fake concrete, to make the bottom of the case look encased in it.
- Get an old motherboard and put it in place of where the real motherboard should be, while having the real motherboard behind it (make a side extension of the case), and partially cover the old one in fake concrete.
- Make some models of the weapons and put them as the fan grills (Idea courtesy of the Doom 3 mod).
- Make the reservoir look like the rocket for the rocket launcher with the "Suck This" label on it, like in the game.
- Make a case window with the Unreal logo on it.

I still need a lot more ideas however. Like I still need to know how I will cover the outside of the case and part of the inside, and how to camouflage the massive BIP III radiator.

What are your guys' thoughts on this mod? Got any other ideas I can add to the mix? Just let me know.
 
I have no ideas on what else could be done, but GL and I can't wait to see the finished product.
 
i would wait untill the game actually comes out. the shock rfile looks like a bazooka and that berserker looks awesome :)
 
You add some blades that fold out.(Like the scorpion!) :p

I like the old mobo in concrete idea, sounds pretty cool.

What case are you going to use? Well, start with...

Most screenshots show a city, with shops and stuff. Id look for a building you like and model your case after it. Fill it with all the cool logos in the game.

You should turn your BIP into some kinda of weapon that is holstered on the side of the case. Not sure which one.... Maybe the rocket luancher, or shock rifle. Wait and see what other weapons are revealed.

Hope my suggestions help, will probably have more sometime. This should be one sweet case. :D

I was thinking about that, but I don't just want to make a Doom 3 case, but with Unreal Tournament. It would have some eerie similarities to the D3 case if I were to do that.

The case I'm going to be using is HERE.

I'll definately think about using that scorpion idea, it sounds pretty cool.
 
more of a counter strike person myself I don't have any UT ideas, but I was wondering what you were planning on using to make the fake concrete?
 
I have the PERFECT idea. This will be absolutely amazing.

Smear the case in dog shit!!!!! That will reflect what a 20gig heap of dung the 2k* series really is.

or maybe in true ut2k* fashion, take everything that was cool about the original case and tear them off, then replace them with cool looking but ultimately pointless ricings (preferably with chicken wire and paper michet attachments)

ut99 for life.

Dear god man. There's no need to be hating. And besides, the makers of UT2K7 said they were going to try to make it a lot closer to the original than before.

As for what I'm going to make the fake concrete out of, I'm still not sure. I want to do some experimenting and see what looks the best. The concrete outside of the case is going to be hollow so I can fit more things in that part, so I'll probably use like a half inch of bondo. That way it will be deep enough to make the cracks and all.

If you guys want to know any more info about the game along with all the screenshots available, check out THIS SITE.
 
Make it look like a cardboard box with the ut2k7 logo on the side along with a stamp (one of those red or black rubber looking ones) that says "do not open until 1/1/07"

 
Call me a cynic, but I've seen too many games that looked to be really cool that ended up being...shall we say, less than great, to see getting excited enough about an unreleased game to designate an entire computer mod towards it. Not meaning to rain on your parade, just my thoughts on the general subject.

So.....You could just tell me that I shouldn't build it. I thought your were serious until your last post.
 
If you were doing a 2k4 mod you could model it after the main building you see in the intro movie. Iunno, wait for the game to come out and look for some awesome structure, and do that. Lots of LED fans and such. It's too early to tell. Maybe some gravel and pavement roads around it?
