Here’s another promo for Atomic Radio, this time a political ad from Presidential candidate Samuel A. Washington. There will be also be an ad from his opponent, Thomas Kennedy, the younger businessman aiming to rid Washington of the Washingtons.
As for when the mod will be released, I think we’re about a month away from having enough content for a bootleg version, but still a ways off from having a music free version.
Here’s a trailer for the background NPCs for New Vegas. So far the cast includes Uncredited, Barry Coleman, Alienslikechocolate, and newcomer Amanda C Milstein. I’d like to keep the voices as diverse as possible, so I’m basically asking everyone to chip in and do at least one character, but as I mentioned before, it’s slow going as people tend to go for the meatier roles first.
Now that most of the big roles are filled the pace has picked up a little, however. Some voices might be just filler until more variety can be achieved, but I’ll try to avoid having any one actor talk to themselves.
The Atomic Radio mod is going to take a while before it’ll be ready, simply because I don’t want it to get repetitive, and that requires maybe hundreds of different skits, commercials, and shows. The good thing is they’re easy to make – there’s no need to place NPCs or script behavior, you just write the lines, the actors record them, and then you plug them in.
At some point I might release one with a ton of musical filler, but eventually it’s going to be street legal. Of course, there’s a chance of getting unique music like with Skyrim, or covering songs that no longer fall under copyright – but that would require musically gifted folks to make them.
