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

[godmode0]

Hi Galtanor,

Since you changed names and location of files like UTGaltanorsInvasion"006" mapvote is not working

ScriptLog: -- MAPVOTE has been disabled due to lack of maps!

When i change the game class to DM it works all fine ..

All settings are oke ( i think ) lines are added en vote is enabled , thought i messed up something but i trie on a clean setup , and on a clean dedicated server ,,, ( patch 1.1 )
I LOVE INV so wanna play its look realy awasome and game runs smooth ... no crash nothing ,,, only mapvote is f*cked

My boot line look like this ,

ut3.exe server DM-Arsenal?MaxPlayers=12?MinNetPlayers=1?NumPublicCon nections=12?NumPrivateConnections=0?NumOpenPublicC onnections=12?NumOpenPrivateConnections=0?bShouldA dvertise=True?bIsLanMatch=False?bUsesStats=True?bA llowJoinInProgress=True?bAllowInvites=True?bUsesPr esence=True?bAllowJoinViaPresence=True?bUsesArbitr ation=False?bIsDedicated=True?bIsListPlay=False?Ow ningPlayerName=?PingInMs=0?AverageSkillRating=1000 .000000?GameMode=0?Difficulty=2?PureServer=1?Locke dServer=0?Campaign=0?ForceRespawn=0?CustomMapName= DM-Arsenal?CustomGameMode=GaltanorsInvasion006.Galtan orsInvasion?GoalScore=60?TimeLimit=30?ServerDescri ption=06500008300006800004500007800007600004500007 3000078000086000065000083000073000079000078000?Num Play=4?game=GaltanorsInvasion006.GaltanorsInvasion ?mutator=UTGame.UTMutator_BigHead,UTGame.UTMutator _SuperBerserk?name=Nixcoders?alias=XXXX -log=DedicatedServer.log -Login=XXXX -Password=XXXX






Annyway , the one who invented to save config on more location like in /my documents / is realy crazy , why not stick to the old config setup like in ut2004, its a bit confused to me

:::: Bushbomb::::: is you mapvote working on 006 ?

:::: Bushbomb::::: is you mapvote working on 006 ?

here is mine, minus the gamespy login:

UT3.exe server CTF-OmicronDawn?Game=GaltanorsInvasion006.GaltanorsInv asion?numplay=3?maxplayers=32?bShouldAdvertise=Tru e?AdminPassword=**** -log=server.log -unattended


Open UTGame.ini, have bAllowMapVoting=true

and add:

GameSpecificMapCycles=(GameClassName="GaltanorsInv asion",Maps=("DM-CarbonFire","DM-Deck","DM-HeatRay","DM-Sanctuary","DM-Arsenal","DM-Biohazard","DM-Defiance","DM-Deimos","DM-Diesel","DM-Fearless","DM-Gateway","DM-RisingSun","DM-Sentinel","DM-ShangriLa","CTF-Strident","CTF-Coret","CTF-Hydrosis","CTF-OmicronDawn","CTF-Reflection","CTF-Vertebrae"))

I deleted the MapCycles from the Galtanor....ini file, not sure that I needed to.

I encountered a bug while playing Invasion with BattleModes RPG mutator. I don't think it has anything to do with the mutator. Somehow a monster was able to leave a Darkwalker and it allowed me to enter it, however, I could not leave once I entered it.

Also, I though the Darkwalkers were supposed to be small so they can fit on any map, these were normal size and did normal damage.

I encountered an annoying bug a few times: When the map changes, the nodes on the minimap and the real ones aren't colored. I have to fire at it with my link to check if it's mine.

But this bug seems to be client-side only, because i never saw anyone complain.

I have several checks in place to prevent a darkwalker monster from abandoning the vehicle, but the bot AI is fairly complex and its possible that there is a part that might kick them out. The only real solution is to have the game check and if the monster does abandon the darkwalker, just to destroy it.

There are 2 versions of the darkwalker...
1) the normal vehicle type... it will only spawn in maps that have a vehicle factory.
2) the small player sized type... it spawns when there is no vehicle factories

I am playing to make a few modifications to the small version (change the weapon foremost of them)

I still have not decided what to do with all the warfare elements. Right now *all* the nodes are supposed to be disabled... but apparently (and I need to dig thru all the code) some of them active themselves after the initgame function runs...

And thanks bushbomb, for helping out with the server questions.

Many thanks to you as well for all the work and so quickly! I have set this up on our server (including the BattleRPG V5) and will try to help pass along any assistance in the way of testing, feedback, comments or anything else you might need. Greatly appreciate the Invasion!

Currently, the only real issue I have is the server not showing up in the browser anymore. Thanks to all the great comments here, I think I have resolved most everything else. Default setup right now but will be tweak over the next several days.

any one have any idear when this may be coming to PS3 if it is. Thanks

Right now the smaller version of the Darkwalker appears as a skeleton weilding a link gun. He's very slow and only likes to use the secondary fire. This would not be a problem if he tried to get close enough to the player to actually make use of it.

Above all, the most dangerous monsters are the Enforcer monsters (Next to Nuclear Bones). They are way too accurate. Since they are available on the first wave, they should be the easier of the monsters.

I also think the movement speed of all the monsters in general should be increased (No faster than the Impact Hammer monsters).

Is a better AI being planned for your monsters as well? I really dislike the UT3 default bot AI.

[Rhipz]

WOW Pwnt. very good. and good for a beta too. GJ!

not to mention they have thier health set high..i nailed one enforcer monster with a total of 5 or 6 rockets before he died.the nuclear bones take a total of 2 or sometimes 3 deemer shots to frag him..the health should be set a tad lower to take him out with a single well placed shot deemer or head shot kill.

Yes, I understand the issue with the smaller version of the Darkwalker... I plan to 'rework' him once I get a customer 'monster weapon' working.

As a trade off of doing more damage and having higher hit points I made several of the monsters move slower. Any comments and/or suggestions on the balance and set up of the monsters is always welcome.

As far as new AI goes, I would like to rewrite it. But part of it is now in native code, so I do not know how much I can change. The biggest issue tho, is finding the time to sit down and go thru it.

The Gun Slingers, 'enforcer monsters' have health set to 100, same as regular players... I routinely kill them with a single rocket. Nuclear Bones are meant to be tough, they are supposed to be the boss monsters. Still, their health is set to 500, so it should not take many hits to kill. Of course, all this is relative to what you have the monster difficulty set it. The higher it is set, the more damage it will take to kill them (it adds a sort of 'armor'). Headshots are disabled on certain monsters... having it there would make them too easy...

You can adjust the health of the monsters to your liking if you wish... see the config page for the monster manager: http://invasion.sudreal.org/index.ph...Manager_Config
You can also adjust the wave configuration to your liking: http://invasion.sudreal.org/index.ph...Manager_Config

any one have any idear when this may be coming to PS3 if it is. Thanks

It does not look good right now... custom skeletal meshes, custom scoreboards, and custom sounds all will not cook for the PS3.

WOW Pwnt. very good. and good for a beta too. GJ!

Thank you. I am glad you enjoy it.

I am currently working on version 007. One of the biggest issues I had is rebuilding all the custom scoreboards... versioning may end up being a pain because I may have to rebuild them for every new version. The issue with crashing at '1' has at least been located and a work-around created. My friend says he will try to get the custom announcements done this weekend. I have made a few new monsters, but they have no animations yet. Pictures are on the Picasa site: http://picasaweb.google.com/Galtanor...tanorsInvasion. Custom animations may be a pain to set up, as there seems to be no easy way to call them with out setting up an 'animation tree'. I have not seen any documentation for the animation trees yet.

In other news, it looks like we have 4 people running servers right now. If you want me to list your server on the first post or on my website, please PM me. I do not want to be presumptuous and add it with out permission.
