Galtanor's Invasion [Beta][Pics][Updated 10/26/2008][v022][Patch 1.3]

Well you can have fps problems also on any other gametype, i have also a very bad pc not single core though and i also get some bad fps sometimes but i can still play cyzs difficult wave setups. His server was without rpg but with sentinels, it was a lot of fun and always a challenge. Unfornutely the server is down now because of the linux patch that wont get released. What i see more as a problem is that the players really need some skill to survive at a server such as cyzs and when you lose all your lives it gets very frustrateing to be forced to watch til the end of waves.

Just a minor note: You don't have to use your stats and if you don't it is as if it's not there. So if you don't like the rpg just don't spend your points and you don't get those added bonuses.

ok i take that seriously, All other players shot 30 rockets a second and run through the maps with crazy speed while the health regenerates and i would try to get some points and survive!
Of course rpg is a cool gametype and i like to play it sometimes but im just missing the challenge.

yea my ping will be bad because im from germany

Nice to play it with the runestorm weapons, unfortunately my ping is bad on that server.

I wonder why almost all inv servers use battle rpg? I personally like it more without rpg. When there is no leveling up winning the invasion can always be a challenge!

Well for one thing if your playing on a single core proc unless your server is set to uber whimpy you wont get past wave 2.

1 rocket from 1 rocket scientist hits you and your dead and with the ammount of lag you get from such a low end system you get hit real easy. Basicly the game type is unplayable for all the low end peeps out their unless the server is boaringly easy or has rpg.

Just a minor note: You don't have to use your stats and if you don't it is as if it's not there. So if you don't like the rpg just don't spend your points and you don't get those added bonuses.

Personally I love RPG... I like RPG games.

I don't know why your ping would be bad other then perhaps the distance. I get around 46 and the server is in LA were-as I am in TX.

Thanks for adding the damage and fire rate modifiers Galtanor.
After a long break it was about time to fire up UT3 again and make good use of the new monsters and config features.

I'm gonna test these beauties out and report any bugs I might encounter.

Now I only need a projectile speed modifier and my boss-fire golem will be complete. . . *rubs hands*

I switched the GU VCTF server to INV with BattleRPG. I got Runestorm's Thor Lightning Gun as well as their Pitbull Shotgun loaded on there. I need to put some custom maps on there still. Something more suited to INV. Just an FYI that there is 1 more INV server out there.

It returned to my "favorites" last night, I can't check right now as I'm at work. It may have only been a temporary solution if you can't see it now.

It does show on my UT3Sview as that is where my sig is generated from.

UT3sview works again, very weird it goes on and off

[HTM~Minion]

Oh, that's cool! I wondered what was generating that and the server view on your site.

The main page is powered by "LGSL" and the "UT3 player Info" is powered by "UT3SView" because LGSL still does not provide UT3 player info.

I combined it all on our VBAdvanced server page here. It does a nice job of monitoring all our servers.

The sig is an option of UT3Sview, it's a neat trick.

Oh, that's cool! I wondered what was generating that and the server view on your site. The next patch is rumoured to have some general server browser improvements so perhaps it will at least be more consistent than it is now.

Try removing and re-adding the muts with webadmin, this worked for me and the server is back in the browser.

Thanks. I'll try that out. Though I did not see the Ye Old Pub server in the browser this morning as I was testing the command line settings.

I also added these dinosaurs as an additional mutator... holy **** things are wild in there now! These guys obviously don't show on the radar and add a real element of surprise as you are making your way through "jungle" type maps like War-PsychoTropix...lol.

The two new Davision and Fraegers mutators seem causing odd server browser issues. When I have them on the commandline, my server in Favorites shows 9999 in the ping and I cannot join via the browser (I can still use 'open'). When I remove them the ping shows normal and I can then join.

Also i noticed the livestats on my website does show the server as offline, i use ut3sview.

TY Slaughter.


Oh... now I see the info was on Davision's webpage... doh! I suppose I should read more and type less.

I haven't had a chance to play the game with the new additions, but a couple clanmates have and the server seems to work great. I did have one clanmate describe a strange condition while playing in "DM-Grand-Diablo".

I think there is a physics crash with those dolls, I killed one and it fell far, and somehow I died.

How to:

Install the add-on packs on your server.
Add the following lines to the UTGaltanorsInvasionMonsters.ini file:

;*** Davision's Monsters ***;
MonsterTable=(AliasName="Dollbomb",ClassName="DavisionsMonsters.MonsterDollbomb")
;*** Fraeger's Monsters ***;
MonsterTable=(AliasName="Demogorgon",ClassName="FraegersMonsters.MonsterDemogorgon")

Modify your waves as desired to have the "Dollbomb" and/or "Demogorgon" monsters.

If you have a redirect, compress and upload the .upk and .u files and add the following mutators to the command line to force them to be downloaded:

DavisionsMonsters.UTMutator_DavisionsMonsters,FraegersMonsters.UTMutator_FraegersMonsters
