[Mutator] Mad Bomber

[legacy-satanboy]

I have created a new mutator called mad bomber. It adds an extra combo which does the following:

announces "Mad Bomber"
custom nuclear symbols surround your player

you gain speed for 5 seconds, after which you explode with a redeemer explosion.

I am planning on adding this to a package which will have more fun combos added, but I figured people might wanna play with it.

I posted it to ut2003hq.com, but you can also get it here:

have fun!

:up: Great idea

I installed the files, it works nicely when I play "instant action", but I can't get it to work for a dedicated server.

ucc server BR-Anubis?game=XGame.xBombingRun?mutator=MUTbombcombo .MUTbombcombo -nohomedir ini=UT2003.ini

I've tried MUTbombcombo.MUTbombcombo and also MUTbombcombo.ComboMADBOMB

I'm not all that familar with installing custom mutators.

Anyone have any ideas?

[legacy-Azbok]

Oh, I also have ServerPackages=mutbombcombo added to my ut2003.ini file.

[legacy-satanboy]

did you run the MakeMD5Package.bat file that was included with the zip?

alternatively:
you can run from a command line:
ucc mastermd5 -a mutbombcombo.u

from the UT2003/system directory
that should fix it

[legacy-Azbok]

I did run ucc mastermd5 -a mutbombcombo.u command in the System directory actually.

I looked at the code too to figure out what the command line arg would be. So I used mutbombcombo.mutbombcombo on the command line but no workie :(

I noticed i had ini=ut2003.ini instead of -ini=ut2003.ini. I fixed that tried again and no good :(

Here's the weird thing, when I start up the ded serv in dos, goto lan game, i see mutbombcombo listed in the games mutators and i try back/forward/back/forward but no go.

I badly wanna use this on my server. Thanks for responding so quickly!

wow sounds wicked dude, this is actually an adrenaline combo thats not stupid :)

[legacy-Azbok]

Ya, its super great. I'll be suffering from madbomber withdrawal until i can figure what the hell type of stuipd thing i'm doing wrong. heheh

[legacy-0Xcel]

Great for team orientated play, gg

[legacy-satanboy]

I just worked last night with Azbok for a few hours trying to get this to run on a dedicated server, and guess what!!!

my code sucks. LOL

I need to set the replication info so that a ded server talks to the clients and allows the mad bomber code to work.

I am working right now, but I am in the process of researching this to figure out what class I need to add and what I should be referencing.

anyways, just to let everyone know, THIS DOES NOT WORK IN DEDICATED SERVERS right now.

I will fix it as soon as I get a clue.

arrghhhh

:-P

[legacy-satanboy]

I fixed it with the help of madnad

anyways, if anyone needs it so they can run it dedicated, let me know, I am still waiting on the next patch which is supposed to fix the problem I ran into.

[legacy-Azbok]

Works quite nicely now in ded mode! Thanks yer the best

[legacy-JaFO(JBE)]

I wish the size/power of the blast would depend on the amount of adrenaline available, because then it'd be a perfect thing to place in a 'powerpill' ;)
