How to remake the Grottos and Gremlins supposed minigame?

[johnny1248]

As nerds play a lot grottos and gremlins, i have heard that the supposed minigame where you play grottos and gremlins was put out at early development time.I was wondering if someone can make a mod for grottos and gremlins,any thoughts?

Its possible.
I might be able to make such a thing, but it will need a lot of new items (cards) and quite a lot of scripting.

And make a lot of sprites...

In the game where you collect the grottos and gremlins cards are there included

Not really.
Its just 1 model of a blank card.

I remember Madman was making some kind of remake for this minigame. He even made some of the character sheets with their stats and stuff. I just can't find the thread.

I was intending on remaking this game and still *MIGHT* IF I can get the current problem mom and I are in resolved somehow without becoming homeless.

The only way this can be done as far as a mod goes is to heavily rewrite one of the arcade game scripts and use THAT as the basis for this since there is no other way to pull this off due to bully ingame mechanics.

I have the sources to all of the arcade games themselves but all were heavily damaged missing quite a lot of stuff but the majority of the code is intact enough that as long as locals are redefined and rewrote....and new assignments are created for some of the functions and locals....then this can be done.

Next you will have to make sprites for said game. Those are located in the world.img file and are pretty easy to edit and all that so it is deffo doable as a mod.

The beta of bully had a working idea where you could play the grottos & gremlins game as a sidegame but due to time constraints and other things the idea was eventually dropped but the game board and pieces are still in the world.img and can easily be used and what I would do to pull off the game board and piece animations would be to locate somewhere on the net, a free opensource chess game written in lua and just adapt that code to work with bully while rewriting the majority of that code so the only parts used is for showing the game board and pieces and as far as the character sheet goes....I have long ago redone that and it is part of my very very unfinished HD mega-mod that might not ever get done due to current events in my life.

This is all I can say about this and I do wish that I could start work on something like this right now but until things change for the better....I can't nor will I even try since there would be little point to starting a big project only to have to stop work shortly after starting it.
