Old Skool Monsta Toolz (including the OSM Adventure gametype)

[LIPRampage]

Hey Mate, i ve just check it out, now im almost starting to work on a OSM mod(it will be like the old unreal, i will do remakes of all the U series's maps :P), so, can you please do a OSMT package of the satore monster pack too?It includes the titan/queen/mercenaries and many other enemies, i love fight titans!

The Single Player Framework template mod would be the best option for you then. It has every single Unreal monster and plenty of cool tools that Unreal could dream of. I'm using it to create a Unreal tribute mod since a while

The only problem is:
You can't find it anymore, it seems like the Fraghouse mod community closed and no links are working and their page is down.

I feel like I'm the only person that has it but I have modded it already pretty much for my own use (it's already 1.66GB big - no joke! I'll have to split my mod into many episodes otherwise it will be way too big lol) and it would take a while to get rid of all these things to make it useful for you... I can try it though - I think I had a clean installation of it somewhere on my old PC. You will like it. You can combine it with the OSM tools (just put them into the SP Framework). Shall I search for it later?

If I find it I can post a link for you tomorrow (should be an about 13MB big zip-file).

EDIT: That's what I mean: http://download.beyondunreal.com/view_story.php?id=9440
Error 404. And yes, it is the only link out there.

Well, i have just played SP frame and dont liked it, i think the monster's scripts sucks near OSMT, and, i already made Satore Monsters for OSMT, but now i just need 100GPing100 fix some errors there, like the nali rabbit try to attack you when the titan not lol

The final version of OSMT has been released

Old Skool Monsta Toolz v1.53 can be downloaded from ModDB here: LINK

The top post of this thread has been updated as well, including installation, download link and a full class list.

Highlights include:

• Camera shakes from damage and blood splatters from melee damage in OSM Adventure
• OSM Populate mutator populates any map with creatures, advanced options include settings for which creatures (even characters), and can end the map when creatures are all killed (Not for use with OSM maps; DM maps are great for this though)
• Warlords can use tactical teleporting for hunting, evading, and even leaving the map altogether if defeated
• ShieldGun, Translocator and Flashlight pickups
• Vastly improved creature combat behavior and improved creature team behavior for higher intelligence creatures

This is the final version. There are a number of additions and fixes to this version, although be aware that some are included as-is, some in a working development state. That means some of the working features may not function under certain conditions, or they may actually be disabled. But, the 'done' and 'testing' items should be fully playable and functional.

Thank you to all who have supported this project over the years. The hope is that everyone can enjoy mapping, modding and playing UT2004 with puzzles, traps and monsters!

Cheers,

[*]OSM Populate mutator populates any map with creatures, advanced options include settings for which creatures (even characters), and can end the map when creatures are all killed (Not for use with OSM maps; DM maps are great for this though)

How does this work exactly? Can monsters still teleport around to players? And can custom monsters be added to this?
