I was wondering if anyone would like to do a starcraft full conversion mod?

Or even just start a discussion on such an idea.

a starcraft conversion would be cool!
but will be difficult to do as there are not enough ship models.

I agree, That would be awesome!
But yeah, as luminated said, not enough ship models, but I guess you could make some more models by just merging a few exisiting ones and mucking around with them.
And also, there would be argument on what ship should replace what type of ship on sins, eg. Some may say that an Overlord should replace a Colonize Ship, while others might say that a Queen should replace it.

why the hell would you want a starcraft mod? I mean there is like 5 space faring ships lol... and all of those you could probably use in starcraft 2.

Well, Starcraft is cool. And Terran Battlecruisers, Wraiths, and Valkyries and Protoss Carriers, Scouts, and Corsairs obviously aren't meant for providing air support for ground troops. Saying you want a "Starcraft in space" mod is like saying you want a "Halo in space" mod. Its kinda hard to see the difference between those two, mainly because they both want to show unseen sides of the action.

can we stop endlessly repeating IP suggestions, it's not like the limiting thing in this community is ideas

It would be fun to do. I have SOME modeling ability... nothing spectacular but I could probably help out some.

Coming up with ships would be an interesting part. Is anyone else interested?

then you should probably join an existing team

do you know how many mods are running low on people right now?

christ, Stress is doing the ST mod all by his lonesome.

we can either have a bunch of mediocre one-man IP model replacement mods or a few really good ones. you guys get to choose.

See here's the thing about that. This is all supposed to be for fun. I think working on a Starcraft mod would be fun- I like the look of some of the other mods out there, but I don't know how much fun I'd have working on their universes. Starcraft is quite possibly my favorite game of all time- making a space based version of it would be awesome.

If it's not fun, whats the point working on it? It's not like this is a job or something. I already have a job- I don't want another one.

It's summer! (YAY!!!)

In a couple weeks when the college crowd returns, the boards will be a lot livelier!
