Resident Evil: Outbreak Resurrection
Written by LAUGHING_MAN, mod director
Resident Evil: Outbreak Resurrection is a modification for Unreal Tournament 3 using its innovative Unreal engine, which is flexible and has wonderful next-gen graphics. It will feature multiplayer cooperative play over the internet. It will feature changed game play rules to add a completely new game style to Unreal Tournament 3.
Plot overview
Resident Evil: Outbreak resurrection begins a couple of days after the initial outbreak in Raccoon City when the T-virus was released, moments before the crisis erupts into complete chaos. The game ends in the final moments of the incident, with the player attempting to escape Raccoon City before the U.S. government launches a missile strike to eliminate the threat posed by the T-Virus. It wills tie-in with events from the original outbreak series and Resident evil two and three.
Scenarios
"unnamed scenario"
this scenario will incorporate the original Racoon City Police Department from the original games. This will be our first developing scenario for our game. A group of survivors are pushed back by a zombie horde and our forced to take refuge in the Raccoon city police station, whilst trying to solve puzzles that were put in place to guard certain areas of the station, our survivors get caught up in the midst of trying to help Brad Vickers against a Bio-weapon made by Umbrella known as Nemesis. You will enter the world of survival horror once again; will you survive? The scenario will take place before Resident Evil 3. You will help supporting character Brad Vickers through his desperate attempt to escape from a powerful monster, is it also his last moments or will he survive?
Game play
3rd person view that pan out when speech of character gets faster and comes back in when they slow down.
To be able to run you have to press and hold a button
Inventory system exactly like that out of outbreak, and being able to present items for people to take from you
virus-o-metre like in Resident Evil Outbreak; so there is technically a time limit
more realistic movement; or mocking that of Resident evil (custom animations as well)
Incorporated puzzles into the mod, much like Resident Evil.

I have put together a video showing all the work (i think) that has been done so far. we have been working on getting more models for the game, ikillvampires is making more static meshes for the R.P.D. and uberjager as you may have seen as finished a few weapons now (hes currently UVW mapping them) and hes also working on that grenade launcher from RE3 - yes its going to be back; yay, imagine that ingame. We have also got a few alicants for coder position, i have hired one of them and still are waiting to hear from the rest; we do need a few - trust me, this is GREAT NEWS and im really excited that we are going to have some coders. anyway here is the video:
Keep the comments coming; we love to hear from you and what you think about the mod, and we will take suggestions onboard. I hope you enjoy the video; the song sort of fits in with whats been happening lately to me, cause i have got problems with my sleep because i dont get enough. We will keep you all updated on progress and yes we still would like you to join the mod team:
WE STILL NEED;
coders and modellers (character and prop)

I was Reading this And I love it But one thing I found annoying was that you have to AIM to Shoot, Instead why dont you make it so you cant RUN and shot but walking and shooting is ok?
Also, Whats the Zombie Status? NPC supported? Player infection? Multi Teams? Whats the Status on that? I love this idea.
we want to make it as much like the game play of resident evil as possible so we will be stopping to aim.
We're going for a stop and shoot style because that's how all of the Resident Evil games are. We're going to have NPC zombies, but we're still working on overall gametypes.
Are you making a map of Raccoon city? If so, are you making your own creative decisions, or are you staying true to the actual maps? I hope the gameplay is like Outbreak, and that it includes those characters.
The map we are working on is Raccoon City Police Department and we are modeling it off Resident Evil 3 a the moment, but added i little bit of our own feel, the game play will be like that of RE4 because we wanted to add in game play that we be like the new saga of RE game (4 and 5). The characters will be different to that of Resident Evil outbreak but still true to the RE universe, as you can see i am hoping to model a U.B.C.S opp and am at the moment modeling an R.P.D officer. We are currently not at this stage planing to do the city.
Hope this clears a few things up

What about PC users of UT game, will we get this mod on pc?
Of course, we're porting it to the PS3 simply because we can, it's not exclusive or anything.
Props to the team cause this is looking great. And hey soros, to start off make sure u know a mod can range from a small tweak to a full conversion of a game but not so much 2 gameplay. And for ut3 mods 2 work they must be converted to ps3 format with the tools recently released so just give some time for these kik-ass mods 2 finish and then we can beg for a PS3 version of each.
We plan to release a PS3 version, LAUGHING_MAN has one that we can do some testing with. Hopefully Sony will release the Atrac3 audio codec so we can have custom sounds on the PS3... I'm sure they will by the time we're close to releasing anything major.
thanks =] that helps alot...hmmm not got UT3, but i might see if its any good, i am THAT desperate to play this that i'd buy a game i dont even like =]
