A Scooby Doo Clone from 1971. Three kids and their bulldog stop at an abandoned house during a storm. Seeing the time on a stopped granfather clock was wrong, they set the time to midnight, releasing a colonial era ghost and his cat. The two ghosts then team up with the kids to solve mysteries.

Augie and Skip - skin and mesh by Cranlox. rigged to male basic.
The Funky Phantom - body and skin by Cranlox. Head and hat from an stl. Rigged to male-basic
Boo the Cat- body from a NWN2 import. Head and hat from an stl. Rigged to the domestic cat armature and keyframes from Wildlife Park 2 by Deep Silver.

Mods / Re: How create new missions?
Last post by Randomdays - January 30, 2026, 05:47:34 PMNew map objects aren't as hard as usually they're not animated, though I did a few that were like a spinning merry go round ride. I've got tutorials up on how to import an existing object or character from another game and sizing it up and getting it into FF or FFvt3R

Mods / Re: How create new missions?
Last post by Randomdays - January 30, 2026, 05:47:18 PMFor a custom head you would need Blender, 3DS Max, or another program that can change the shape of the nif. If you look at a head nif in nifskope, you see that the nif has 3 parts - an animated head, a background square, and a front frame to look through. Like a regular character nif, the head has bones in it tied to a kf file to animate it, in this case built into the nif instead of as a separate file - it appears to be a simple animation in a loop.
Using Libety Lad as an example, the head nif has two textures - the skin used for the character nif and a separate skin for the animated mouth. It appears that for some of the characters there a separate "sad" head that could also be picked by the game when needed.
Making a custom head would take either changing the shape of an existing head by moving vertexes around and then assigning a new skin to it for the new character, or bringing in a new head and rigging it to the existing armature, which would be a lot more work than the first option.
IF you're not aware, Tommyboy did a lot of custom heads for some Marvel characters, and there's a few generic heads for male_basic and others as well.
Depending on what you want it might be easier to use an existing head and just put a new skin on it.

Last post by BentonGrey - January 30, 2026, 03:08:44 AMMr. Cogito, sorry to hear that you've been dealing with heavy stuff. I hope things remain calmer for you.
I hadn't thought about Pulp Adventures. If there is world enough and time, I would love to revisit that one with voices, but that would be down the list a ways. Ideally, I'd love to team up with someone or a team to do the voice creations, so I can work on other stuff.
You've suggested several things that it would be great for us to have tutorials about, but unfortunately, most of them are beyond me. Let me address your requests.:
-I am not an artist, 2D or 3D, and I know nothing about modelling or animation, so I'm afraid I'm of no help there. There are some good text tutorials created by more talented folks than me, though, and you can find them on my blog. I feel like some of our creators have probably made video tutorials. Didn't TUE?
-Custom heads: Same as above.
-My second tutorial takes you through the full process of creating a mission, and with the 3rd one, which deals with maps, gives you everything you need to build a mission from scratch.
-Creating new map objects would require 3D modeling, but this can definitely be done. I know CmdrKoenig did this with several of his maps, so maybe he'll provide some instructions for us one day.
