Project: Resident Evil Apocalypse Mod? Lack Of Funds...Set Back

Yehm True, I Was Thinking About Doing That Anyway, Jus Gotta Wait Till I Get Sum Cash..

 

Can you use the 1" OD by 5.5" clear acrylic tubes I have?

Are you in the US? If so, I would be willing to send you 4-6 of them. Gratis.

 

lol, No Sorry JavaDog, I'm In Ontario, Canada... I PM'd you but you never got back to me, and about the 1"OD...how thick's the wall?...

Thanks..

 

Pictures...

Well I Finally got Some Before Pictures Loaded Onto My Comp. And Onto Photobucket...

Side Of Case, Yesh, I Took The Fan Off, I'm Painting It Red...

The Front.. I Took The Drive Bezels Off Cause I'm Painting Them So Until They're Finished I Taped The Drives So No Dust Would Get In... Aswell, The Black Thing Is My Stealthy Power And Reset Buttons..

The Back, No Motherboard I/O Plate, Took It Off, My Motherboard Got Fried During A Power Surge..Damn Surge Bar... Gotta Order A New One...No Matter, Was Time For A New One Anyway...

The Inside... Not Much, A DVD Drive, A CD Burner, 40Gb Samsung 7200RPM HDD And A 3.5" Floppy, All Samsung...

 

I can't beleive I didn't check my PMs. Sorry about that. You have a PM.

 

now that i see the case i got a few ideas:

umbrela fangrill

S.T.A.R.S. on one of the 5.25 bays

for the resivor put a specimin in fermaldih like in the photos form the game

and you have to put a key switch for the power like in the puzzels in the game

 

hehe, Thanks.. What I'm Doing Is Actually, The Side With The Fan Hole Is Getting Cut Out So What I'll Do Is On My Plexi Window I'll Mount A Fan...Maybe? Would That Look Any Good?

 

you should keep the fan on the back of the computer to keep the window clear to show off the virus tubes,but the umbrela logo fan grill is nice, i want to know what you plan on dooing to the front.

ps, the one thing that i would love to see in this mod are custom perifferals(keyboard, mouse, monitor), i think you should make them look dirty and blood covered like after the attack on the city, and through in some bullet holes.

 

Yeh I'd Do That, But This Is My First Mod Ever And I've Never Taken Apart My Keyboard Or Mouse And My Keyboard/Mouse Combo Was Expensive ($200CAN) So I Don't Wanna Ruin It..But For The Case, On The Side, I'm Putting Some Bullet Holes In The Window As Well A Bullet In The Front Of The Case...Any Other Suggestions?..

Thanks

i would say make the t-virus and the anti virus with el wire. did someone say that all ready? well thats wut i would to for a glow. that movie wuz awesome. id put a zombie on there to somewhere. maybe a licker or sumthin. all my frends play this but i never had the ballz to

 

EL Wire?

 

Hi... been lurking on these forums for a few weeks now... decided it's time to register and say hi to all the genius modders I've been watching.

For your Tubes you were looking for Maybe a Tube from a fish tank vacuum would work for you. I had one that I got at Wal-Mart here in the USA, I would show a pic, but my Son destroyed it recently and I had to throw it away.

here is a pic to something similar

 

Interpim has a good idea, but what its lacking is a way to shape the tubes. How about some coat hanger wire or something along those lines, shaped into a spiral with the tubing placed over it. Seal both ends and fill it with the appropriately color dyed water.

 

Yeah, I Was thinking Along Those Lines Too, But Overall I Like JavaDogs Idea Of Using The Crazy Straws, It's Like The Perfect Idea..But I'll Keep Your Ideas In Mind...I'm Just Short Of Funds So It's Halted...When I Get More Cash I'll Start Again.

 

Welcome

BTW...Welcome To The Site, Happy You Joined, Your Comments And Ideas Are Always Welcomed

 

Thanks for the welcome

What I actually meant was the large part of the tube that actually would do the vacuuming (if you would really use this for an aquarium) =p

Use that part as the outer portion of the tube, I would say it has a diameter of around 1.5 inches and would be rigid enough for the application.

 

Ahhh Good idea, I'm Having One Hell Of A Time Trying To Find F***ing 1.5-2" I.D. Acrylic Tubing, I Was Going To Ask JavaDog To Make A Run For Me And I'd Pay Him For The Tubing... I'll Take A Look At The Aquarium Stuff.

Thanks

 

I might be going out to the plastics store today or tomorrow, I will check and see if they have any 1.5" or 2" ID laying around. 6ft of it be OK?
