Better be a Pink Fish in there....
If it can be modeled by the folks that're donating time. Go for it!

Interesting, though how is the fish controlling the robotic legs?

I think manual controls would be a bit much and probably wouldn't render well in game (Though the idea of a fish sitting in a chair holding a joystick is amusing). It might be better to just wire the fish's head into the base of the legs, if you use the idea.

cool. it could be done in a matrix "plug in the back of the head" style. there could even be a slight pink tinge to the water in the tank to mimic the tanks from the film. :-)

It'd be better if you went for a standard water look, possibly bluish tinted. The pink look would blend too well with the fish if we're going for pinkfish too.I do like the idea of the matrixplug, simplifies animation if its one giant cable rather than a bunch of little wires, though I'm not sure if you could slow down the actual fish/wire movement while walking/getting hit/ect to reflect the fact it's actually in water, and thus would move differently.

thinking about the fish animation, a nice little touch would be if the tail wagged from left to right with the motion of the legs.

I wrote about that character concept on the wiki, how nice that someone found it useful. The sketch looks great About the wires in the fish, I'm not sure if that would look that good, although maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, I guess the fish itself would be the head of the model, so it maybe wont allow animations other than moving when you look around. We could say that the fish has some psychic abilities to control the mechanical armor ^^U ..or that it has a chip within his head that sends electromagnetic pulses through the water. edit: my english sucks  ..a slight misunderstanding corrected |

You could animate the fish via the use of shaders, I would assume the bowl would be somewhat transparent.
*shrugs*
A psychic fish?

No less odd of a concept than a walking skeleton, or a giant eyeball.
Lets face it, the stock Q3 models are a fairly oddball bunch. Logic be damned, lets have fun with this!

Brilliant You interpreted my concept better than I could! The circle under the eyes was supposed to be a mouth, btw. You can safely delete that little thing there |

This fish idea is awesome.
I don't think there need to be any wires connecting the fish to the robot. All you need is story.
You could call the fish something like psycod and provide some lore that basically states that psycod was genetically manipulated to control things with his mind. So the fish could be controlling the robot with its mind.
Then someone could build a model of a professor with a large head that built it.

Just to clarify, I am not against weirdness in characters (reading the current chat conversations in game should be more than enough proof of that and they are probably going to get a bit more weird as I am re-writing both Grism's and Gargoyle's chat scripts to make them less generic and less repetitive).
I just have no clue as to what kind of personality Psycod the Magnificant: Slayer of the 19 Cats of Doom should have... any ideas?

Hmmmm, how bout intellegent and somewhat soft spoken. So a bot message may be something like: "Blub, blug, gargle." A really pissed fish would say something like: "Garble, garble, blug, glorb, bubble." Hope that helps. And if people need some voice audio files to fill in for when he kills, takes a hit or dies let me know. I have been running some ideas in my head about recording some shit underwater in my bathtub. Like laughing, screaming, etc. Not sure if it would be cool but I could mix it up with some synth shit maybe to make it sound extra ESP fish like. |

On the bright side I've got one drowning phrase worked out:
"Can someone please explain how a fish can drown?"
I guess it matches Bone's meaty gibs in iD's game.
