question: if u allow tl in vctf, does it disable hoverboard?

[Emmet Otter]

In 2k4, you were able to go to translocator and then imediately go back to your weapon you had in hand last right away. Can this be done with this mut?

[kisk]

question: if u allow tl in vctf, does it disable hoverboard?

No and yes. The plan is to make VCTF configurable thru the ini to allow both (via a different keybind, or possibly a multi-purpose keybind -- 1st_tap=TL, 2nd_tap=HB, 3rd_tap=back to last weapon). There will be the full options to allow both or one-or-the-other.

Yes. It still works this way when you press Q. If you are talking about immediately switching back to weap after a translocation, then it *could* be implemented.

[VerteX]

ahhhh (too bad my mouse has 2 buttons + wheel (middle mouse is hoverboard/trans) and i'm an arrower! WOOT

[mustapha]

I can't get this mod to work. I've enabled the mutator in a map but 'Q' doesn't do anything. I didn't have any problem trying to load the "Ubberboard" mutator and I'm not trying to use both at once. Any ideas?

[Emmet Otter]

I have my TL set to middle mouse (mouse3) and learned to jump back to previous weapon used, I just have to press middle mouse gain. This sorta sucks cause i'm so used to 2k4's tapping alt fire to pri fire to go back. I believe that was the combo.

Right now, the TranslocatorPlus is still only enabled in the default gametypes where it is normally enabled. Adding to other gametypes will come in the next version.

Emmet, I'll see what I can do with it.

[Emmet Otter]

Emmet, I'll see what I can do with it.If you can do it, that'll be great!

[iycgtptyarvg]

ToDo: Adding the ability to restrict/allow the TL in certain gametypes (including VCTF)Ooooohhhh, that would be great! Please allow different key bindings for hoverboard and translocator.

I would really love this mutator to have that feature.

[Villain717]

This mutator works great, first one i have found that actually downloads to clients from the server. Thanks man!!

[kisk]

new version coming out tonight which will allow in whatever gametype...

[{WBK}Minion]

Awesome, I really want to use this with DM and TDM.

[kisk]

UPDATED to v1.2 -- See original post for download.

New in v1.2:
Configurable options to add TL to each GameType.

[woooo]

Nice work man... You beat me to it :D so i went onto something else lol. Did you make it so you can turn unlimited trans off and on ?

Other stuff I i was gonna do is configurable charge rate/regen rate and ammo/max ammo. You should include it in yours =]

All will be in next version, as well as the [FINAL] tag (most likely). About time to move on to something else... :)

[Villain717]

Finally Trans in DM HuRRaY!!11!

[{WBK}Minion]

What is the GameClass name? I want to add it as a mutator but I don't know the GameClass name to add to the CommandLine.

**EDIT - Nevermind, found it. MutTranslocatorPlus.MutTranslocatorPlus

[Midnight]

Finally Trans in DM HuRRaY!!11!

OMG this is a bad idea.


Is the trans configurable server side? Doesn't this mean every server you go to is going to have random settings and you never get a consistent trans? Sounds bad. And trans has NO place in DM or TDM.

[m4tze]

In 2k4, you were able to go to translocator and then imediately go back to your weapon you had in hand last right away. Can this be done with this mut?

You can do this like that:

Select Trans, shoot it somewhere, teleport by right click, hold it down, and left click, then it switches back to lastweapon, thats like ut99 :)

[Villain717]

Midnight stfu, if you dont have something positive to say move on. If you want to cry to someone cry to epic for including the editor with the game. Mutators are a big part of unreal if you dont like em dont download em. Hell just leave the pure servers filter checked and u can pretend they dont exist.

[SkrU]

I can't seem to get this bad boy going on me server. Anyone have any luck?

[Al]

Works fine on mine. What's your startup command look like?

[SkrU]

Here it iz:

DM-Sky-Arena-Final?MaxPlayers=12?bShouldAdvertise=True?bIsDedic ated=True?ServerDescription=RezClan-IG?Mutator=UTGame.UTMutator_Instagib,UTGame.UTMuta tor_SpeedFreak,UTGame.UTMutator_LowGrav,UTMutTrans locatorPlus.UTMutTranslocatorPlus,UTGame.UTMutator _SuperBerserk EngineINI=..\Config\Engine.ini -GameINI=..\Config\Game.ini -log=..\Config\server.log -Login=PantyRaid -Password=******

I'm kinda newz to this hehe.

[kisk]

its MutTranslocatorPlus.MutTranslocatorPlus

not UTMutTranslocatorPlus.UTMutTranslocatorPlus

[SkrU]

Thanks! I could have sworn...

[{SH}Ravenous_X]

Nice mutator! Any chance of a trans camera? I heard it was taken out of the game, but could it be put back in?

Way too much work, it was never in the game (as a working version, anyway).

[SkrU]

I noticed a little glitch. When changing from instagib to TL and back and forth something is triggering something that crashes the mut on client side. No idea, but I leave the server and return its fixed. This is very intermittent, doesn't happen all the time.

[kisk]

there is also a bug which sometimes makes the TL unaccessible until you die. I am working to find a fix for this as well.

[yourmom]

And trans has NO place in DM or TDM.

LMAO!!:D:D

cool - just for fun i would love to telefrag HBoard riders! ;)

Hello Kisk

We have your translocator working on our main DM server without any problems.

I have been tinkering with a new gametype based on TDM. Your tranz works fine in InstantAction and i have the hoverboard in game to. The tranz is selectable via mouse scroll wheel and the hoverboard by 'Q' as you would expect.

But we cant get your tranz working online.....

Should your tranz mutator work with a custom gametype online?

Sorry about the delay in updating my mutator... major issues at work have kept me from doing anything productive in the gaming world. I'll hopefully be back on it within the next week or so. Thanks for your interest!

[vläd]

Any info on an updated version yet?

I don't intend to be a pest, but I thought I pop this thread back up for visibility and a reminder.

[Isaac Conrad]

Do you think it's possible to make a Car Launcher mutator just like UT2004's mutator ? It was a very special Translocator :).
