Robo recall Star Wars Mod

tonsta31

Robo Recall Starwars Mod, made for fun as a challenge from a friend.

A couple of things to note

- LightSabers in the new version dismember and deflect better and do not act like they are lead pipes 
- Laser projectiles are just there for test purposes and will be replaced.
- AI have been slightly reworked to come more towards you and now multiple can attack at once (In stock for some reason most wait until you are nearer them or you kill one)
- There are force powers but not to use as yet.
- Started rigging Darth and some bots
- Will be story driven across multiple levels
- only made by ME and about 20 hrs worth including making the level lol so do not expect much.


This a a MOD only and not a full game, Completely non profit and no payment is required to pay. Mod is not connected to Lucas or Disney nor the franchise in anyway and is made for pure fun only.

Have fun and this is mainly for feedback for what you want in the final version

I have 5 days i think left of this challenge

Probable best not to run any other mods atm as this is untested

TO GET LIGHTSABERS THEY REPLACE THE REVOLVER AND BLASTERS REPLACE THE SHOTGUN!

Just tried it, great so far! feels so good already for the short amount of time you put in it

will you be adding the blaster bolts when they are reflected as well? right now they just disappear when i deflect them but they're definitely hitting the bad guys, just that i dont know where they're defelcted towards to

i love the blaster skin, looks great! will you be skinning the bots to look like battle droids too? and even adding their lines in game would really bring the immersion to the next level

tonsta31

The bolt issue should be fixed in the next version along with looking better too.
In regards to the droids if i have time in the 7 days i may look to do that.

I just want to forewarn you, making a star wars mod for fun and giving it away probably will not set off any alarms at Lucas. Making a star wars mod and selling it via "Donators have a slightly more advanced version" is considered profiting off of their IP.

Thanks, The mod is for anyone and no money is required for play, there is no profiting at all from their IP. It is 100% Completely free to use.

Lightsaber I was expecting: and it's pretty awesome. (For whatever reason holding a lightsaber here even in this half-baked form felt much more visceral than in the Lucasfilm 'Trials on Tatooine' experience.  Maybe it's just that being Vive-controller optimised, so not quite right using Touch, and this feels really 'in your hand' being Touch controller optimised.)  But what I wasn't expecting is to enjoy the blaster so much. Big and beautiful to shoot.

And how the Star Wars context makes everything better...deflecting bolts, even dodging them, so much cooler than the default bullets.  The teleportation even feels a little better being a kind of 'force power'...almost. Beating up overly talkative droids feels right in a prequel way. Even the intro crawl suggesting a more epic and meaningful mission.

I'm gushing, this is still very simple of course and just pointing the way to a VR Star Wars of the future, there's just something very right about this, it's a lot of fun.

Thank you in its current form it is quite basic at the moment but i have been working alot on this recently and an update is coming. I am nearly at the end of my challenge now so will release what is done so far soon.Who knows i may even continue on it after as the possibilities are endless. I could create a whole campaign mission within Robo Recall for the mod lol

Really digging this. I had issues teleporting (meaning teleport didn't work at all for me) on the level I tried (I think it was 2_1 or 2_2?) but I am excited for the next version. Lightsaber dismembering bots instead of hitting them away is a key change for me!

I am really liking this mod, and i think that you are doing a great job with it. I dont think that there are enough star wars vr experinces out there som i am really happy to be able to play with this mod in Robo Recall and i look forward to V2

tonsta31

Well my time for the challenge has now expired, I am just neatening up a few things and i will release what has been done!

Its coming along with Loco V7 soon

A.Force

Great work Tonsta, looking forward to it!
You truly are a robo god!

Good stuff - really looking forward to checking this out

Little update, I contemplated adding full models of stormtroopers and Darth vader and although can be done weighing up the time etc  to do it for a free mod is not viable for me (us) to do so. I had planned in my head a full sandy map with the walkers and everything lol but that would take a couple of weeks and time is money when your making a game lol.

Adding the models was going to be a full AI rework meaning new animations and logic.

There has been advancements and i will release that very soon but please do not expect the full conversion mod i wanted to do!

Cheers for all the support guys n gals, showing once again this is a great community.

Can you leave instructions on how to download and install this? Also will it conflict with current (no mod) progress?

Davefromhowell

Is the light saber available in the current mod? Very excited to see it. I download the mod in the first post from DropBox but it was just one level with blasters. Is there a more current version? 

ParadiseDecay

I made a video here featuring the latest build. I hope they introduce 'Storm Troopers'

tonsta31

Hi nice one! and yes i have decided to add storm troopers Infact i decided to do a full conversion mod! It will take a few weeks but what you can expect is storm troopers, Darth Vader and a whole new map to play. Plus alot of cool tweaks to the light saber and bits.

phillyd023

I see a link up above. how do I install it into the game?

Download from link in first post and extract, once you have there will be a .robo file. Double click this and it will ask if you want to install, click yes. The nopen the game and goto mods and select it. On the right in Mods you will see map lists just start the game from one of those.

SWMap is a small custom map for the Star Wars mod

You've gotta swap out your pistols for revolvers - the saber replaces the revolver. I totally missed it at first too lol. Nice mod by the way, though it's most certainly a work in progress. I haven't tried it in a few weeks, but the last time I did the saber was pretty far off from where it should have been
