Back in the early 00s when modding the original Deus Ex PC game was popular, I remember playing a mod someone made. I don't know if I downloaded it or it came on a PC Gaming magazine CD. I asked about this mod a long time ago on: www.offtopicproductions.com/forum/ but it seems I can't find my thread so it may have gotten deleted but I recall that no one there knew what I was talking about. I used to have some of the files from this mod but have since lost them.
Basically it was a mod where you worked for Morgan Everett and were given the mission to assassinate the President of the USA. I am not sure if you played as JCDenton or another person, but I think I remember the player may have had new textures to make it look like a secret service agent but with the same JCDenton mesh but a different name. Possibly the players surname was Madison. There was no voice acting in the mod.
The creator of the mod said in the included readme text file that they were not great at editing so there was some bugs. I remember in the mod I had there was one or two .dx map files and I think 3 .u files maybe named Mission49 and Mission50 but not sure.
In the game there was "Illuminati Troops" these were NPCs in soldier uniforms who worked for Morgan Everett (reskinned UNATCO Troops) and maybe one of the UNATCO Troops you meet in the original game was now an Illuminati troop in this mod. These NPCs had issues with height and from their waist down, clipped through the floor, showing one of the issues the creator had.
I think the player might have started in Morgan Everett's house in Paris but modified slightly or more likely an "Illuminati HQ". I remember there was a personal computer and on it there was a text conversation from two people with one person asking if they had played this new game (I don't remember what the game was). Maybe one person was Alex Jacobson or you talked to Alex Jacobson and he mentioned the game as well, I don't remember.
I do remember Sam Carter was there and he was the armourer who gave you your weapons and tools for the mission and a NPC of Gunthur Hermann, with a different name was there, and he was standing in front of a black van in a garage area that mayb have had bright walls and or was brightly lit. When you talked to him, he took you to the mission but the map with the mission on it was missing from my files so I couldn't complete the mod.
One thing that stood out to me as being unique to this mod and haven't seen it done on others was what looked like a TV (cube brush) but it showed one room with the President and his family in it, but it was an actual room made in the map and made like a skyzone so when you looked at the "TV screen" you saw the room with the NPCs, scaled to look like you were watching them through a security camera (like how you set a texture to Fake backdrop to see a skyzone in Unreal Editor.
Once I had MM.u (Minty's Mod) a mod for Deus Ex with extra fan made weapons and tools and in the mod there is a "Mutant in Black" a MIB NPC with skin texture of Ambrosia. This NPC may have meant to be in this mod I am looking for as I spawned one into the map and a conversation started between the player and the Mutant in Black where he said his skin allowed him to heal fast if he got injured. Does anyone know what this mod is and or is there a download of it anywhere?
