Weapons of Evil

[legacy-Mr Evil]

Name:
Weapons of Evil

Version:
First UT2004 version

Compatibility:
UT2004 v3204. It should work with 3186 too, but I have only tested with 3204.

Description:
A whole bunch of weapons, the Sentinel automatic cannon and a few power-ups.

Comments:
Note that these are the weapons/Sentinel/power-ups only, not the whole total-conversion, which is taking longer than I had initially predicted to finish. Since I'm sure some of you are fed up waiting I thought I might as well just release the finished parts.

You can read more information in the readme, here: http://www.cheese83.freeserve.co.uk/unreal/woe/Readme_WoE.htm

A Sentinel somewhat mispredicts a combo. Luckily it is well protected behind the glowing shield sphere.

Mr Evil, you have done some amazing work there. Very Good Job. I can't wait for the rest of WoE.

[legacy-Super_Moose]

Can't wait to see how the senties (You heard me) work in ONS. :up:

[legacy-DragonSlayer]

Wow this looks awesome!


THANK YOU!!!

[Nemephosis]

You sir, have just made my night. :D

[sHoKaZuLu]

When is cliffy gonna give mutators ownage again?

The sentinels alone are pure genius :D:up:

[Nemephosis]

LOL! Using an infinite ammo mutator I dropped two =fully powered up sentinels on the wings of a Manta. Shields, armour, minigun, the whole shot. ALl I had to do was drive near someone and the miniguns ripped him a new one. It was like having my own personal strike force :D

God that was hilarious. :haha:

[legacy-Rehevkor]

Hahaha, I love these weapons. I was running around in DM-CBP2-Tempest testing the mutator, trying out all the weapons, when I pickup up a CFX. I spied a bot nearby and began firing at him, and almost laughed at the pitiful sound the weapon made. I thought "Wtf? This is weak!" then I hit the alt-fire. After the cloud of smoke, fire, and guts cleared I grinned and thought "Sweeeet." Ahhh, I love the smell of frying bad guy in the morning! :D

Awesome work Mr. Evil. :up:

[legacy--Twista-]

Wow,cool :) :up: :up:

[legacy-ChaosWolfs]

can u make a ZIP for it?

[BuffyTheSlayer]

Mr Evil :heart:
yes may I have Zip for me too ?
thank you

[legacy-FireCrack]

yeah what the heck is the sound the CFX makes supposed to be.

And what does Fyrian mean.

the sentinels only work on SOME vehicles, EG i only got it to work on the manta, it FALLS THROUGH all the others :(

Also, some weapons ALT-FIRE dosent work :(

Which ones?
They all seemed fine to me.

[legacy-Yournan2000]

when is w.o.e coming out mr.e?

and do you need any more maps doing for it? i might be able to whip some up if really needed.

Awesome work Mr. Evil. :up:
The CFX is probably the most underestimated weapon. I've seen people using the weapons online, and mots of them never work out how to use it, dismissing it as useless (I suppose it's not obvious how to use it unless you read the instructions), but when you work out how to use it it is the most powerful weapon. capable of killing anyone no matter how much armour they have instantly, and possibly taking out anyone nearby too:cool:

I will not be releasing a zip version. Ideally I would release in both ut4mod and zip, but I don't have the space to do that. There are links in the readme to programs that can extract the files from the ut4mod if you need to.

It's the sound a dart makes as it is ejected from the tube of course! Actually it's the 'pop' sound of me pulling my finger out of my mouth:D

Fyrian is an old English word meaning 'to fuel a fire'.

I didn't test it with all the vehicles, obviously a mistake on my part. I'll look into it and fix it. I would also like to make it possible to deploy ceiling Sentinels on Raptors and other flying vehicles in the future, which would be rather cool:cool:

Which alt-fires can't you use? Some of them don't have an immediately obvious function, but they do all do something.

It should be finished in about Two Weeks™, as always. More maps would be nice, there are currently two maps for CTF, one for Last Stand and none for Accumulation (except the test map).

[The5thviruz]

This is great.:up:
One thing:
If i was to set up a bio invasion match on a server using UTvote, would this be the mutator list?

Mutators="WoE_Weapons.WoE_Weapons,WoE_Effects.WoE_Effects"

No. You can find the names of the mutators in the ucl files. They are, for the weapons: WoE_Weapons.MutWoEMain or for the arena weapons mutator: WoE_Weapons.MutWoEArena, for the Sentinel: WoE_Sentinel.MutSentinelReplacer and for the inventory: WoE_Inventory.MutWoEInventory

[legacy-DD_133]

Dude...simply wow. I love these weapons! :D I can't wait for the full thing, now excuse me while i seperate bone from flesh. :D

[legacy-sWs Vito]

So anyone got this working with Utvot42 yet? And if they do could they be so kind as to post what they got here so I could copy and past it into mine?:D


PS. great mod by the way.;)

[legacy-ChaosWolfs]

oopsie. I wasn't specific enough.

I meant can u add all the files to a zip and not to a .UT4mod so i can manually install it.

[legacy-CaTdAeMoN]

the alt fires are:

The rocket launcher and dart gun!

Having sentinels under flying vehicles sounds great! but it would need to be in the air first? unless you made it so you can just walk up to it and use it :bulb:

I guessed that was what you meant. I won't release a manual-install version for the reasons I stated above.

It's probably because you haven't yet worked out what they do :) The PepperPot (rocket launcher) alt-fire sends out a homing beacon which the rockets will fly towards. Attach it to a player and you have yourself your very own aimbot:D The CFX (dart gun) alt-fire detonates the darts which the primary fire launches. They only do their thing when attached to players. The more darts you attach to one player, the more impressive results...

Yes you would need to move the flying vehicle up off the ground to attach a Sentinel. It would thus require teamwork, which is just as well as I expect it would be a very powerful technique.

[legacy-MasterBlaster73]

I just can’t say enough about WOE or specifically Sentinels.
It’s hard to understand why Epic didn’t include Sentinels as a mutator. When Sentinels are added to a team game, there is a significant swing to strategy in the game. Rather than just running and shooting, you spend more time strategically locating Sentinels (near a flag or rocket launcher for example) and fortifying them. Personally I attempt to upgrade the Sentinels before I go looking for frags. Then I spend part ½ of my time fraggin and ½ my time refortifying Sentinels.
If you haven’t installed this mutator, you don’t know what you are missing.
:up: :up: :up: :up:

[legacy-sWs Vito]

Ok how does this look for UT2vot42?

Mutator=(FriendlyName="Weapons of Evil",HideVote=False,MutClassName="WoE_Weapons.MutWoEMain,WoE_Weapons.MutWoEArena,WoE _Sentinel.MutSentinelReplacer,WoE_Inventory.MutWoE Inventory",Voted=False)

Packages=(MutClassName="WoE_Inventory.MutWoEInventory",ServerPackages="WoE_Effects,WoE_Weapons,WoE_Inventory")


IS it possible to have al four mutators on at once?

PS. i'd test this but i'm at work so can't do much testing till late tonight.;)

[legacy-Jeenitals]

Got some weird graphical effects with this mut - firing the Fyrian cannon at the ground in Torlan caused it to go dark where bullets hit, and playing AS-Mothership got me some strange clipping or something - walls wouldn't show up, or would go black and intrude on the field of view.

Anyone else getting this?

The dark terrain is a bug in UT2004, not a bug in WoE. It does it with the standard Assault Rifle too, but it's not so noticable because it spawns fewer decals. As for the messed up walls, possibly a scripted texture thing, try setting bNoScriptedTextures=true in WoE_Weapons.ini

Mr. Evil.

You. Rock.

Are you running in anything other than D3D mode? What graphics card do you have? I'd like to try and find out under what circumstances exactly this happens so I can try to automatically switch off scripted textures.

[legacy-Jeenitals]

I'm playing with D3D, and my card is... bah... a PCI GeForce 4 MX420. :cry:

Got a question here...
I'm trying to get this to work with UT2Vote42 and need alittle assistance please.

Could somebody look this over and tell me if it's correct...

Also if I were to put this manually into my UT2004.ini what would the server packages be. Just wondering because I need that info for the next set of code. Example...

Packages=(MutClassName="TeamRadar.TeamRadarMut",ServerPackages="TeamRadar")

[legacy-Major A Payne]

Ah. My personal favourite mut from UT2003, and how I remember asking the question of whether the sentinel would be in UT2004.

Happy days!!

[legacy-FireCrack]

hmm there seems to be a bug (UE) with switching maps in onslaught or starting a new round, i'l paste the whole thing tommorow. Also the crispe decal is kinda stretched (TC_Clamp?) and firechucker decals can build up too quickly to coaus massive FPS drop (when shooting at nodes) does way too much vehicle damage anyways.

[legacy-Threatcon]

Is there any way to turn off/disable the HoloClone? It's kewl and all, but missing a leg. I'd rather have the double damage pickup right now than the HoloClone. Also thankx for such a great job on this mutator! :D

[legacy-Nuclear hazard]

now i have 3 wepons mod: Anihilation arsenal, Wepons of evil and arkon wepons

that is sweet with weponstuff:D

[legacy-Gobi]

Thanks Mr.Evil for this excellent weaponmutator. Really nice damageoverlays and effects. All weapons seem to be well balanced, its a real pleasure to play with these deadly toys. :up: :up:

The Crispe decal could do with some tweaking. I think it's the angle that it's being projected. The FireChucker (primary-fire) isn't supposed to leave any decals? Vehicle damage is something I definitely need to look at, unfortunately it's hard to get it right without wider public testing.

You mean you want to use just the two shield replacements? You can't do that with the mutators I have provided, but SwitchArsenal (http://csdgames.ut2003files.com/SwitchArsenal.htm) will let you mix-and-match pickups.

They can use it, but don't seem to want to. I'll have to give them a good kicking.

[legacy-sWs Vito]

Ok I uploaded this and tested it when the server was full. I'm not sure but is there a weapon that performs like the link gun. Cause that was the biggest prob I seen with the weapons when it came to onslaught. IF there is a weapon link the link gun I would but it in the position of the current link gun to ease confusion.

Second. Man i luv the sentinels, one prob I seen is some ons maps seem to not have ammo for the sentinels so I might replace just couple of more things with sentinel ammo. Second lets start a petition to make this a standard thing in UT period. Or at-least lets allow it to be a standard server mutator. Because it is awesome.;)

Great work man.:D

I am having the same problem with Sentinels that I had with UT2003.
When I try to upgrade a ceiling mounted Sentinel, I get a weird screen that doesn't allow me to upgrade to most of the options.
This never happens on floor mounted Sentinels, always ceiling mounted Sentinels.

I sure wish the curser was more visable when upgrading Sentinels. When upgrading them, It takes several seconds to find the curser and get it to the desired upgrade. Another hold over from UT2003.

Wierd screen? Are there any errors in the log when this happens? Note that ceiling Sentinels don't have any weapon upgrade options.

The cursor could do with being centred on opening the menu. I'll see if I can fix it.



Oh, and thank you to everyone who's downloaded so far - a little under 7GB worth of downloads! It completely dwarfs the traffic prior to release:

Evil,
Ceiling Sentinels are not upgradable?? That answers my question. I was looking for something that wasn't there.

Improving finding the curser or making it easier to use would be a big improvement.

[legacy-MrUniq]

Thank you for releasing this MrEvil..i love this mutator. So chaos, arkon weapons and is realeased. Now only switcharsenal needs to be released for 2k4 to make the world right again :)

[legacy-grimm039]

Is there anything to only replace a few of the original weapons with the WoE weapons? If so, it would be perfect, since there's a few weapons I really don't like in the original, but one's that I want to keep.

[The5thviruz]

Get the "Worm:2K4" mutator

[Nemephosis]

Feature request: Can we have an option to have a sentnel deploy with a chosen weapon already equipped?

Today in Invasion I went turret farming and put down about 70 or 80 sentinels (infinite ammo mutator). They all had the plasma gun, which was good when there's 70 of them, but if I wanted to give them, say, the minigun, I'd have to equip each and every one of them manually. Yargh.

Would it be possible to include this? thanks.

No special software needed, it's just a nice, simple, sensible normal network connection. They seem reasonably reliable and very fast (I've never seen it drop below the rated speed of 128/512).

They should be able to take the non-weapon upgrades: shield, sensors etc.

I won't add this as a configurable option, but in single player you can do it with a console command, like this:

set WoE_Sentinel.FloorSentinel DefaultWeaponClass WoE_Sentinel.SentinelMinigun
Replacing the last part with whatever weapon you want (look in WoE_Sentinel.int for a complete list). Now any (floor) Sentinels you place will start with that weapon.

[Nemephosis]

Hey thats awesome, I'll have to try that. Thanks :)

Will it carry over from game to game or will I have to do it every time?

[legacy-Mr Evil]

It should stay in effect until you restart UT2004.

Feture request:

i often find that my sentinel cant see far enough. id like to be able to control my sentinel (translocator style, as in blind to YOUR surroundings) by using a keybind or the like.This would add a twist to gameplay and make it all the more fun! :cool:

(you could also make it so you view the sentinels POV with the USE key when ya got the gun out! :up: )


hope to see this in! :up: ;) :p :cool:

The limited perception is for balance reasons. I don't plan to make them user-controllable.

Being able to view from the Sentinel's POV would be a nice feature to add. I'll keep it in mind.

[legacy-CaTdAeMoN]

thats fine then. id still like to use "cam mode" :p


you should be able to put them on walls :cool:

i found a buglet aswell: the turrets cant "look up". they face your direction but dont have a up and down anim? this shoud be fixed :up:

I would like to make them placeable on walls, but that's something I wouldn't do for quite a while yet.

When you say can't look up, do you mean the gun model doesn't rotate towards you? It certainly should do (within limits).

[musilowski]

I've noticed that when I play with the sentinels, they don't seem to see to up or down. They just see in a about 30º FoV horizontaly... :(

[legacy-sWs Vito]

Man is ther anyway you could make the sentinal mutator a stnderd server mutator. This so needs to be standerd in ONS. Reminds me of XMP.


PS. Everyone luvs the sentinals.;)

[legacy-dhMofo]

First off, thanks for the mutators....they certainly are incredible.

I have a question about the sentinels mutator and a slight problem I'm seeing.

Scenario:

Dedicated Server

Gametype: Node Siege
Mutators: Sentinel, Low Grav, AirControl, GameSpeed, Berserk,UDamageReward
Ini file: has all mutators listed

I tried using the ceiling sentinels in several places yet they continually fall down. I did the same test above, in Instant Action and they work just fine. I tested using DM-Grendelkeep.

Need more data? If so, let me know and I'll pass it along.

Thanks.....

[legacy-Sporeflower]

om dude, i remember playing WoE for Quake 2... those were the days...

[legacy-Phenos]

I found a problem with the sentinel upgrade menu,
it was The UT2004RPG mutator that disabled the menu on my server.
Is there a way to fix this problem? because i like both mutators.

Thanx

[Nemephosis]

WHOA we got a freaky problem... I dunno if its a bad thing but man, I know it shouldn't be happening.

OKay so I have a text file that summons like 35 weapons or so when executed. I also have this line in there:

set WoE_Sentinel.FloorSentinel DefaultWeaponClass WoE_Sentinel.SentinelMinigun

like you told me to put, so that they start with miniguns.

Okay no problem... until I start a CTF game and actually put one down.

It changes weapons once every second, and gives itself random upgrades once every second. It randomly picks whether to switch a weapon or upgrade.

I know you wanted to make these sentinels smarter but I didn't think you were going to make them sentient ;)

Yeah it gave itself the shield, the armour, everything. Every second. Once the molecular shield was cut through, it went back up the next second.

Kind of weird. :bulb:

I don't know how on earth that bug managed to slip through my testing. I know exactly what's causing it and it's fixed for the next version.

I tested it, pasting the exact line you posted into the console and it works alright, the Sentinels start with the minigun and behave normally, so it's not a problem with the command. What happens if you type it into the console instead of executing a text file?

As I mentioned somewhere previously in the thread, the black texture problem is to do with scripted textures. You can disable them by setting bNoScriptedTextures=true in WoE_Weapons.ini

[Nemephosis]

If I put the line in by itself into the console it works okay.

I dunno, I think it's kind of cool, aside from the weapon switching all the time putting down a fully-kicked up Sentinel is hilarious :D

[legacy-Phenos]

I found a way to get the sentinel Upgrade menu W Invasion RPG
It's a little tricky, First u need Ammo "Resuply" and "Ghost"
If you die and go in ghost mode press 0 (zero) and keep pressing it,
When you are back in life You have 2 sentinel deployers.
1 with 200 ammo and that one has the working upgrade menu.

:haha:

[legacy-MasterBlaster73]

When playing Freezematch or TeamFreeze, the Sentinels won't stop firing on a frozen player. The two get locked up until the match ends.
Maybe if a player is motionless for XX seconds the Sentinel ignors them? Then could you sneak up on them?? Either way, I sure would like this fixed.

[legacy-SUCK_IT]

The CFX is the $H!T...

Tag a couple to a bot and watch 'em explode into tiny pieces!!!

Thanx Evil!!!

[legacy-Drag00n]

I dunno whats going wrong, but I think the weapons don't show up in ONS (or do I have to press the number key more then once to bring them up? )...... if so DOH! :confused: :bulb:

[legacy-Phenos]

Alot of people on my RPG server know how to use the tricky way to get upgradeable sentinels.
but i think the "ESR" upgrade is a little bit too much overpowered,
It kills all monsters.
The players place a Sentinel upgrade it and then they sit like a duck watching their levels growing :mad:

Is there a way to get rid of the ESR cannon?

I can see that being a bit of a problem, but it's by design, not a bug. The Sentinels are not supposed to be very intelligent, they simply shoot at anything for as long as they can still see it whether or not it's a good idea to shoot it.

They should work in ONS just as well as any other gametypes. Assuming you are usign the normal WoE mutator, you should see them hanging on the weapon lockers and be able to pick them up as normal.

You should be able to disallow it by commenting out its entry in WoE_Sentinel.int (put a semicolon ; in front of the line).

[legacy-Goldenfire]

Love the Sentinels! too fun!

Here's a list of what I've encountered, while using them, though
1) with RPG...this has been mentioned before, I know, but I narrowed down the issue on my machine. I found if I completely disabled magical weapons (set the chance of them to 0.00 and disabled 'magical starting weapons') then sentinel upgrading worked fine. Otherwise, the upgrade screen popped up and immediately dissappeared.

2) The molecular shield isn't a wire-frame. This might just be an OpenGL thing, i don't know, but I get what appears to be an actual spherical shield, not the wire-frame thereof. (yes, this is just graphical...the actual shield works just fine)

3) playing Assassin (third-party game type...much fun!) the bots are allowed to upgrade their sentinels, but I am not. It's annoying to get bar-b-que'd and not be able to return the favor :)

If you need more info, let me know.

2) I didn't test it in OpenGL. So many features that haven't been implemented in it!

3) Arghhh! More compatibility problems.

[Nemephosis]

Can you make the sentinels not telefrag you when yuou put them down, it's a pain in the ass in Invasion when you're playing with no bots and you get to wave 12 then start building turret farms and one squashes you.

[legacy-Drag00n]

Looks like the weapons won't show up in ONS if am using the mut with Ut2k4rpg and I have the start with magical weapons option on. :(

[legacy-Goldenfire]

From what I can tell, magical weapons (both 'chance of...' and 'starting...') break the sentinel; at least the upgrading portion thereof. I can't say I'm terribly surprised, considering the code-fu RPG must use to modify weapons like that.

(of course, I'm having issues with RPG's 'ammo bonus' stat, but I'm going to go post that in the RPG thread, not here)

[jaybud4]

While you're at it, could you get sentinels in Assasin to only attack your hunter and target?

Its too fun to play invasion with lots of sentinels around, also its fun to look the monsetrs die so easily! :p

IS THERE ANY WAY TO JUST EXTRACT THE "FIRE CHUCKER" FROM THIS PACK??
ALTHOUGH I DO LOVE ALL THE WEAPONS IN THE PACK, THERE ARE TIMES I'D JUST LIKE TO SUBSTITUTE THE FIRE CHUCKER FOR THE LINK GUN...

ANY FEED BACK WOULD BE APPRECIATED..

P.S.---> I TRIED TO INSTALL THE FIRE CHUCKER MUTATOR FROM THE UT2003 GAME BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE A ".UCL" FILE.. SO I TRIED TO CREATE ONE ..
I WAS ABLE TO GET THE FIRE CHUCKER TO SHOW UP ON OUR SERVER, BUT NO-ONE WAS ABLE TO PICK IT UP... :( :cry: .....

[Nemephosis]

HEY PAL I THINK YOUR CAPS LOCK BUTTON IS ON PLZ TURN IT OFF AND TRY YOUR POST AGAIN

And you really shouldn't be "extracting" other people work without their permission. People like Antioch and Vaptor do that.

[legacy-Goldenfire]

For substituting one (or more) weapon(s) for another, I suggest SwitchArsenal (http://csdgames.ut2003files.com/SwitchArsenal.htm).

It's nice, I have have some weapons from WoE, some from U4E, and the spider mine launcher nstead of the (much-reviled) bio-goo launcher-thing

(please note: I know, not everyone hates the bio gun... but I do, at it's my weapon set up, so nyah nyah :)

[legacy-All for One]

switcharsenal works much better than worm.(that way I can mix evil, arkon and remote strike...)

Sorry for the CAPS & YES THE CAP LOC IS BUSTED ON MY LAPTOP!!
Also there is nothing wrong with what I attempted to do & INSTALL ON MY OWN SERVER, IT WAS'NT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR MONETARY GAIN! {that was MEANT to be CAPS!!!}
If you don't have anything constructive to say S.T.F.U.

& who said I EXTRACTED IT??? The FIRECHUCKER was released as a separate MUTATOR for 2003..
& who are you Antioch and Vaptor 's LAWYER????
It is MY SERVER for the WHOLE WORLD TO ENJOY, and I'll put what I want on it!!
I was just a question... & I take offense to your post..
Why does UT come with all the tools to MOD & CREATE???
as long as CREDIT IS GIVEN there shouldn't be any problem..
BUT AS I SAID THAT WASN'T THE CASE!! It was for USE ON MY SERVER:mad:
Maybe I'm just having a bad day.. But my partner & i have 3 servers that we have up & running for the community that we foot the bill for along with forums with FREE DOWNLOAD SECTIONS along with ORIGINAL MAPS & REDIRECTION SERVICE to those who can't afford it...
We ask nothing in return just for all to have fun & have patience & give us some FEEDBACK when we try out NEW ORIGINAL MAPS..

So if anyone is/was/is gonna be. displeased by what i was attempting to do..
SCREW'M :down:

[Nemephosis]

Pal, it doesn't matter if its your server or not. If you're going to cut other peoples work apart, you ****ing ask them first. If they say no, then you don't do it. Yes, giving full credit is a good idea, but if you want to take code from someone's mod, ASK, or don't do it.

And why are you surprised that a weapon coded in UT2003 doesn't work in UT2004? :rolleyes:

edit: Just to clarify in case I've left any room to argue with me here.... you can host the whole mod without having to ask the author, that would be stupid if you had to. But, if you want to modify it and extract things from it, then you ask him if you can do it.

Or, you could host the whole mod, and then use a weapon switcher like WoRM and replace a weapon with just the flamethrower, giving you the effect you're looking for without having to modify code.

[legacy-Revpolar]

I think there is a communication problem here.
& who said I EXTRACTED IT??? The FIRECHUCKER was released as a separate MUTATOR for 2003.. He is not suprised at all it doesnt work for UT2004 but was requesting help on this question.
IS THERE ANY WAY TO JUST EXTRACT THE "FIRE CHUCKER" FROM THIS PACK?? And you come off with some BS about caps. Who really gives a rats ass about caps? This isnt a chat room its a forum. That stupidity spilled its way over into forums but should be dropped. And stop calling him Pal you SOB. He is my Pal but you dont know him at all so get off your high horse and stop trying to spin this into some other crap
And why are you surprised that a weapon coded in UT2003 doesn't work in UT2004? He knows what hes doing so get off his ass. Let someone answer his question.
And this nonsense about asking before modifying a UCL file is ridiculous. Its done all the damned time and you know it. Half the stuff released is based on someone elses code and we all know it. Someone uses a little honesty that they tried to make some old code work for 2004 and you flame them. GEEZ Your arrogance makes this hobby difficult.

[Nemephosis]

You should really stay outta this, it ain't your concern. Pal. If you consider that flaming, you need thicker skin.

Lots of people care about caps. That is yelling. Maybe I oughta post in 10-point bold screaming pink letters? After all, who cares?

Just to make it real clear:

If you want to host the whole mod, that's fine.

If you want to take the UT2004 firechucker out of the Weapons of Evil pack and make it its own thing, that's when you ask Mr. Evil if you can do that. I don't get the difficult part to understand, so if you can point it out to me, I'd love to know.

Now, I proposed a method to get the desired effect, without having to butcher someone else's work to get it. You're welcome for the advice, ingrates. But if you want to be a disrespected piece of crap who is a known thief, like Antioch and Vaptor, I guess thats your choice. It's the wrong one, but one I can't really stop anyone from making I suppose.

[legacy-Revpolar]

FOR THE LAST TIME HE DIDNT EVER SAY THAT CRAP SO STOP TRYING TO SAY HE DID. He said he wanted to get the 2003 firechucker mutator to work for 2004 not whatever the hell your saying. You shouldve stayed outta it in the first place PAL. Your making alot of assumptions. What Im saying is that people look at other peoples code and take snippets here and there all the time and make there own code while learning from the original authors all the time. And they arent doing a damned thing wrong. You are mischarachterizing my friend and it pisses me off so Im making it my business. Get off that crap about butchering Mr Evils code because your making it up. I think his questions werent for you to answer anyways. You need to stop spewing garbage trying to mischarachterize my friend. Take my advice and move on.

[legacy-Goldenfire]

How about you both drop it (or take it to private mail) and we get this thread back on track? I already suggested (and use!) SwitchArsenal, for the purpose of selective weapons replacement. If that's not good enough, you can try WoRM (which I'm sure has a thread somewhere around here) or try something on your own. Regardless of which method you choose, descending into personal attacks (for either 'side') is not the answer.

[legacy-Revpolar]

Goldenfire, I agree wholeheartedly. Thanks for your suggestions.

"IS THERE ANY WAY TO JUST EXTRACT THE "FIRE CHUCKER" FROM THIS PACK??"

This is the first line of the first post about this whole thing. Looks to me like he said it. What do you call it? You want the screenshot I took of the thread just in case anyone gets any cute post-editing ideas?

[legacy-Revpolar]

Ok but if you read the rest of the post you can fully understand that the question was How can he just run the firechucker in place of the link gun. So he used the wrong word "extract" which led to all of this. So for sake of arguement lets just aggree to disagree and move on.


Hey Mr. Evil,
Have you considered updating the Firechucker mutator for 2003 to 2004?

To which I offered a solution. Guess this is what I get for trying to help. Rest assured I won't let it happen again.

[legacy-DaMaN-UT2K3]

THANXS BRO!!! ;)

I took note of your post & appreciate it, the reason that I wanted to have a separate mut was for convince & such.. Due to the fact that we allow LIMITED ADMIN access to some of our PLAYERS/FRIENDS I just wanted to try to make it as easy as possible to add & remove. An there are times that we run certain theme MAPS so I could add it to our COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS or create a specific votable GAME TYPE/GAME CONFIG {a quick example being} GameConfig=(GameClass=XGame.xDeathMatch",Prefix="DM",Acronym="DM",GameName="DM"",Mutators="edo_chute1.edo_MutChute,insert firechucker -=:D=-",Options=GoalScore=25?Translocator=False)

To our MAPVOTE to add a wider variety for our PLAYERS/GUESTS to enjoy..

BUT IT ISN'T WORTH ALL THE B.S. ... I'LL FIGURE IT OUT ;) ... & THEY CAN SAY WHAT THEY WANT, FOR I KNOW WHERE MY HEART IS.. To have a place/platform for people to come & ENJOY themselves.. :heart: NOTHING MORE!!

BUT, as per par for the course someone will have something to say..
THE EASIEST THING IN THE WORLD TO DO IS CRITICIZE :(


-=PS---> Mr Evil, had released the FIRECHUKER as a separate mut for 2003 & we had it & had a ton of fun with it on our 2003 servers.. i just thought that it would be as much if not MORE fun to have along side the other innovative/creative muts that we have available to us for UT2004.. So thats the story..
OH YHEA!!! I just did a QUICK search & here is where he did release it SEPARATELY for 2003

Hmmmmmmmmmm........

1st of all this MUTATOR is for UT2004!! I don't know if it will function properly on UT2003! The reason i say that is because of this entry for the README FILE --->

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxCUT & PASTE FROM WoE README FILExxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Installation

Important notes:

Requires UT2004 v3204 or newer

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxEND CUT & PASTExxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


OK...!! now with that being said,
if you have ANY HOPE of INSTALLING it & making it work on your server "YOU MUST DO THIS" .....

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxCUT & PASTE FROM WoE README FILExxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you run a server with any of the mutators, you must add the packages to the server packages list in UT2004.ini. Add the following lines under the section labeled [Engine.GameEngine]. Make sure there are no spaces at the end of the lines:

ServerPackages=WoE_Effects
ServerPackages=WoE_Weapons
ServerPackages=WoE_Sentinel
ServerPackages=WoE_Inventory

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxEND CUT & PASTExxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


GOOD LUCK!!

maybe you read through the README FILE because there might be some other stuff in there that is IMPORTANT & pertains your situation!!

Dude, he means he's running UT2004 dedicated server on Windows Server 2003. Not UT2003. :D

[legacy-Fishstick]

I'm having trouble finding any actual servers using either WoE or the sentinels... Any suggestions?

[jaybud4]

You mean it finds zero servers? Just wait, that means that nobody is hosting a server with the WoE mutators on at the current time.

[legacy-sWs Vito]

Well we run the sentinel mod allot on our server its used in conjunction with a couple of other mutators and I call it wicked ons. It gets voted on allot. But you probably have a hard time seeing when its on because I have FM2 installed and it hides the mutators. So the only way you can tell its on is because the server info window tells about the sentinels.

Check it out.

sWs» Ground Zero «sWs

UT Server IP:
67.18.13.37

then vote for WICKED ONS or the individual mutators.
:D

[legacy-Mr Evil]

You can try looking for servers running weapon replacement mutators like Worm and SwitchArsenal, since there are quite a few servers that mix-and-match different custom weapons.

[legacy-Duffman]

I find the Parasite gun very under powered.

They are good guns, but they could be more balanced.

[legacy-Fishstick]

I mean it finds one or two servers that are deserted. My filters have 'doesn't matter" on everything except Sentinels, which are 'must be on'

[legacy-sWs Vito]

Just curios as what server packeges do I need to just use the sentinals. Curentlly I have "WoE_Effects,WoE_Weapons,WoE_Sentinel" Can i leave any of those out to help to cut down on the donwload time?;)

[legacy-UndeadRoadkill]

Hey, how come there's no Anaconda?

[legacy-UndeadRoadkill]

Ah, I found it. It didn't have a .ucl entry like the site said it did, and the class was hiding in the WoE_Inventory.u file, but I made my own .ucl entry for it.

It looks great, and is fun to play with, but the description and secondary function don't quite make sense for a revolver.

[legacy-4TX4]

Yeah, was wondering about that (missing Anaconda) myself... Looks like a cool weapon, but what's up with having to make your own .ucl entry? That's totally gay! I for one don't know how to do this, so does this mean I can't use the weapon? Is there any practical, logical reason for not making this gun readily selectable like the other ones?? Doesn't seem to make any sense whatsoever... :mad: :confused:

Nonetheless, cool mod! :up: Quite a few of these weapons have become regulars in my WoRM inventory.

[legacy-UndeadRoadkill]

I don't think Mr. Evil made it like that on purpose. It could be that he's not quite finished tweaking it. IMO, the 1st person model position could use some adjusting (it's kind of high, and far to the side), and the firing animation doesn't quite sync up with the action (he could probably lose the first 50 or so frames from the animation). Maybe he was planning on changing these things before he officially released it. Or maybe he forgot, or didn't intend to release it for 2k4 at all.

Either way, when I get home from work, I'll post the upl entry I made, and you can copy'n'paste it into your file and try it out.

[legacy-Riktar]

I think the lack of a .ucl file was a simple oversight - as Evil's site clearly states that although the Anaconda is not available through his mutator, it should have a .ucl file and thus be usable through WoRM2k4 and whatnot.


In the meantime, what the hell happened to MrEvil and his Weapons of Evil mutator anyhow? ^^

[legacy-UndeadRoadkill]

4TX4, open your WoE_Inventory.ucl in a text editor, and paste in the following:

Weapon=(ClassName=WoE_Inventory.Anaconda,PickupCla ssName=WoE_Inventory.AnacondaPickup,AttachmentClas sName=WoE_Inventory.AnacondaAttachment,FriendlyNam e=WoE_Inventory.Anaconda.ItemName,Description=WoE_ Weapons.Anaconda.Description,FallbackName="Anaconda",FallbackDesc="The weapon given to all Evil Corp. employees, the Anaconda is best known for its stylish antique looks. Although built around an old 21st century design, the Special Projects department got their hands on it, modifying it to fire more modern 11mm caseless ammunition and adding a secondary burst-fire mode. It packs quite a punch for a pistol, although reloading after only six shots is troublesome.")

After that, you should be able to use the Anaconda via WoRM2K4.

[legacy-4TX4]

Ok, thanks, I'll try that. Hope Mr. Evil takes the time to edit the revolver, tho. Would be a shame to leave this one unfinished IMHO.

Where did Mr.Evil go?

[legacy-Riktar]

I think he died =/

[legacy-Prefablab]

Mr. Evil basicly quit coding for now............he hasn't coded for a long time now........until whoever knows......

He was working on Lawdogs project which I still manage but had to hand over the assignments to new coders........

His WOE project was also halted for sometime now..........

[legacy-Thothie]

Does anyone know of a server that runs the WOE mods? At least the Sentinels?

My friends and I were playing on sWs >> Ground Zero - and we absolutely LOVED it. Most of us were just about ready to uninstall Unreal and write it off as a game of mindless deathmatch - but these sentinels really added a whole new dimension to the game.

Sadly, the sWs kids prefer mindless deathmatch, and they've more or less removed all the sentinel ammo from their maps - thus pretty much removing the strategic usage of sentinels altogether.

So, anyone know of any other servers running this mod, can ya post us an IP? ...Or should I just delete Unreal and have another 6 gigs of space for hentai? :bulb:

Sorry mate. I agree the ammo is lacking in some maps. But there has to be a middle place somewhere.;) Its about the best I can do right now that will keep everyone happy.


ON that note please someone come up with a similar mod if Evil wont support it no more. With more ways you can tweak it. It needs to be able to have different settings for all the game-types and a way to limit the ammo other than just replace power ups. Because some maps have none and some have to much!

[legacy-Thothie]

Damnit Vito! Stop stalking me!!! :p

Yes, I realize you do what you have to with your server... It's just gone far enough that it isn't worth it for us anymore. It used to be there were one or two maps without ammo, now there are dozens, and most of those maps that do have ammo, only have like 1 box per team - which I've actually seen teammates run each other over in vehicles to get at.

And as for the rest of you, yes, I'm aware of the fact that we could make our own server, but I doubt we'd make an Unreal server if we went that route, and one of us is already running a Steam server - tis just we can't play with him as most of us can't get Steam working... Plus it would be easier to throw our financial support behind an existing server. So, iow, please tell me something I don't know... Like the IP of a server that is running WoE Sentinels!

Anyways, judging by the responses, you all seem to be saying there IS no other server running WoE Sentinels... Gah... I knew this was gonna be a waste of $30... :mad:

I've been fiddling with the filter settings in Unreal - I can't seem to find a way to filter in that specific mutator... Anyone know of a way to do that? Maybe that would help in this desperate search.

Ah, tried it... What he has there is an Invasion server, in essence. So you have the ESR-instaGib cannon (and no other weapons) vs. waves of bots of various sizes and powers that you coop against.

Oddly enough, this also makes available an ESR cannon upgrade for the Sentinel. Once you have an ESR Sentinel with upgrades, you can basically kick back and watch it relentlesly destroy the bots, powering the adrenaline upgrade of your choice indefinately - fun, for about 10-15 seconds.

Oh well, at least someone outside of Ground Zero can get the Sentinels working. I'll keep looking - if I find one, I'll post it here.

If you find a good one and post the IP here, I will bare your children! :heart:

[im so late]

[legacy-Nighteye]

Ah, thanks for bumping - saves me the trouble of searching for it. Now, I was wondering, is there a way to determine which sentinel upgrades are available? The only option I've found disables all upgrades...

[legacy-Riktar]

gR! You've never heard of WoE before? U_U

Heathen.


Anyways, what do you mean sentinel upgrades? Aren't they shown on the Sentinel screen when you alt-fire the sentinel placer over the sentinel in question?

Or do you mean turning off only certain upgrades from the Mutator screen? Because I do not think the latter is possible...

[legacy-FritoKane]

Originally posted by Nighteye

Here's my list:
Molecular Shield - It puts up a nifty shield that stops all projectiles. Basically doubles the armor of the sentinel.
Armor Plating - Reduces damage by 30% until it reaches 300 Health.
Sensors - Duh
Organic Motors - Turns faster
CPU - Better tracking
Network Interface - Connects to other sentinels to give them unified targets (5 sentinels to 1 target, instead of 5 sentinels to any target they please)
Telemeter - If you have the sentinel deployer out, you can see who the sentinel is firing at.
Self Destruct - Explodes with the fury of a thousand suns when it is destroyed.
Cloaking - Can't see the sentry very well.
These upgrades are available for both the ceiling sentinels and the floor sentinels.

For the floor sentinels, however, more weapons are available.
Pulse cannon - A single link burst. All sentinels start out this way.
Minigun - My personal favorite. Needs a wind up period, but can seriously screw people up (especially if you get one to target a Raptor!)
Flamethrower - Excellent for corridors, and I personally pop one directly on top of the flag, making anyone that wants the flag run into it.
Rocket Launcher - Very useful. Fires 9 rockets (pepper pot style) at a time. Use without CPU, as dodging can make this thing fire erratically.
Shock Cannon - Dual barreled shock rifle mount. It usually fires a secondary fire, and tries to combo unwary people. If people are a specific distance, however, it'll snipe them with the primary fire. I've used this as a support sometimes. Not usually.
Enchanced Shock Cannon - It's an instagib rifle mount. It was available in the UT2k3 version for invasion only. I haven't seen it yet in invasion.

Floor sentinels are a tad bit different than ceiling sentinels, apart from the weapons. They come with decreased sensors and 300 points more armor. I don't think I've seen anyone sneak past a fully upgraded ceiling sentinel.

Just unzip it to the base UT2k4 directory. It should work then.

@FritoKane: UT2k4 Ceiling Sentinels can't be upgraded and have less armour, but are less likely to be spotted by bots... sure you aren't running a different version, or am I on an old version here?

Or at least I'm pretty sure that the ceiling ones are unupgradeable.

I better doublecheck ;)

The best trick you can do is putting sentinels on the wings of a Manta. Now THAT is death on speed. Any combination of them works, but, IMO, Miniguns and Rockets are best on a Manta.

Ah, so they can only be upgraded in terms of equipment, not weapons. Good trade off, IMO ;)

Smart_noob, not sure what you mean by UT2004 RPG fixing this. Mr. Evil has somewhat disappeared and the continued development has been taken on by Robster_Craws in which he's got it working with just a couple of bugs to shake out.

The new version doens't work with the combination that we are using on our server without using a speed combo but as far as other combinations is works great. The only other prob with it is that for some reason you cannot disable weapons that you don't want to have used on your server ie ESR cannon.

Mr. Evil,

I downloaded this mod/mutator and so did my friend, my friend hosted a server with WoE and WoE inventory turned on, I come in and I can't see or pickup any weapons.

The only weapon I can see and use is the Shield Gun, no Soar, no nothing. But it worked fine for my friend.

Any help?

[legacy-eviL<3]

Did your friend add all the WoE Lines to the ServerPackages?

[legacy-`tw.arGh!]

How do you mean? In the user/ut2004/system.ini?

No, he didn't. How and where?

[legacy-eviL<3]

In the UT2004.ini look for the ServerPackages= lines. They are under [Engine.GameEngine]

Now Add this to the end of all the ServerPackages:

ServerPackages=WoE_Effects
ServerPackages=WoE_Weapons
ServerPackages=WoE_Sentinel
ServerPackages=WoE_Inventory

You should read the ReadMe :rolleyes:

[legacy-KZXten]

loki24,

g...oooo t...oooo y...o...u...rrrrr LOL!

go to your installation directory for example c:\UT2004\system, open the file UT2004.ini with notepad. Scroll down to the entry section [Engine.GameEngine], under down where the server packages are add 'ServerPackages=WeaponsOfEvil' (if I remember the file correctly)save then close. If you've installed the package correctly when you bring your server back online you should be set with the standard config. A general rule of thumb, and .u files in your system directory should be in a ServerPackages line in the UT2004.ini.

BTW, a good site to use for point of reference is http://www.unrealadmin.org/

hope this helps;)

Came back to UT2004 after a loooong time away, and this mutator is amazing.

Nice work indeed!
