Modding - The Way
Posted: Thu Sep 01, 2011 2:22 pm
Are there any mods of The Way? Expansions? etc...
I don't know if I'm really going to try to *mod* the way, but at the moment I've been upgrading a few of the songs for my own enjoyment. Each song is taking me about a day to do at the moment, so it's not exactly a swift process. But, I'm just learning the program!
I'll post samples of the songs as I make them, in case people are interested in leaving any feedback; they probably aren't the *final* version of the songs just so you know~

Tower and A Reflective Sky
Double Vision - Knocking
Lexus
Strata's Theme
The Pits
The Lagoon
Into the breach
Catacomb
Urgent Action
Build Up
The Fighter Spirit NEW!
I am always starting things, but not finishing them... I'm trying to break that habit, but I'm just letting you know.
If I were to mod the game besides music... well...
*It might be fun to add extra challenges
Like in the song above, Double Knocking; have more Blue Scarves join in the fight, making it much more difficult to survive. Maybe, you only have to kill two or survive a certain amount of time, before the crowd steps in, and the Scarves, break the lights and make their escape.
Perhaps these added challenges could also be enabled and disabled.
*Add extra content to some areas
Like, Lun intended to flesh out the Tower originally... right? It might be fun to create a final dungeon worthy to end the chapters...
*Adding extra routes
This, would, be, awesome. But, I doubt I or anyone, would get around to it... If Rhue's choices affected what happens through the game : such as a route where you learn more about Scatha and the deep places she's been. Or a route to end up with Cetsa and lead the Blue Scarves, with a reprise major battle against that fame seeking girl who is sure to seek revenge against Rhue. As opposed to the primary Serena route.
*Voice acting
Well... I don't see this happening, too bad that other project fell through! I could at least voice one character...
*RPG 2003 or something port
I don't know how incompatible or hard it would be to upgrade* it to 2003. But, that would mean instead of something like 3 gigs of WAV files for the music....... [if they were all converted]. There could be just a few hundred megs of mp3s.
Also the regular battles could be converted to 2003 if new models were drawn for all the monsters... Not sure if there is any other reason to upgrade it...
I would like to merge all 6 chapters into one game, unless it has problems hosting all that content...
Anyways, right now I'm just doing a few songs... maybe that's all it will be...
Back to the original question...
Has anyone else modded The Way before?
