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

Yes. You have to place a UTWeaponPickUpFactory. Then in its properties, select one of Galtanor's Invasion weapons as the pickup class.

Cant find it there. Maybe it needs to be something in the UTeditor ini to make them avaible? I remember for UT2D you had to put a line in that ini to get the special pickups in the editor.

Dav, fighting that ninja sounds like it will be alot of fun, i like the idea of having to duck or dodge his attacks.

[Galtanor]

Whats the point of having invasion in CTF/VCTF/WAR maps, when their layout is objective based and so far as I know those objectives are not supposed to be completed in Invasion.

CTF/VCTF/WAR maps give you a nice defend/attack type of experience. I actually prefer to play on CTF maps, as they are neither too big or too small and usually have sufficient ammo/weapons/powerups.

Will you ever make the player-sized models playable?

I am not into making custom playable characters, so probably not.

hi i havent played for a while and just managed to make the game run smooth again. i noticed you worked very hard galtanor great job, i love all the new monsters and the difficulty. just one thing i miss is the skeletons not dropping their enforcers anymore so i can duel wield them =/ flak + duel enforcers were my favorite combo. any reason why they dont drop anymore? or is this related to the server im playing in?
anyway keep up the good job

I actually disabled monsters dropping weapons. I will add an option to enable it.

There's a cheap hack to reenable this. You can convice your server's admin to replace the Gun Slinger line with this:

MonsterTable=(AliasName="GunSlinger",ClassName="GaltanorsInvasion.MonsterGunSlinger",WeaponClassName="UTGame.UTWeap_Enforcer")

Though, this will only work if the server you play on doesn't have BattleRPG on it.

ah thanks for the tip i play on "#1 UT3 Invasion BattleRPG" though lol so that wouldnt work =/ i guess i can live with the link gun aswell. bit slower but still does the job =p

While i made the sword swing animation i realized that a swing from a different side wouldnt make much difference because its so fast. So i made a swing straight down as the 2nd. When he makes the swing to the side you should be able to dodge it with crouching and when he makes a swing straight down you can dodge to one of the sides.

Looks awesome!

Btw, is it somehow possible to place the Galtanors Weapons as a pickup in a map? I couldnt find them in the editor.

On my server i edit the monster ini and equip the the gun slingers with enforcer and the headhunter with snipergun manually like andrew said, thats the only way i could get them to drop their weapon. I do that because i have designed some special rounds with low hp monsters that are ideal for players to go dual enforcer crazy on

CTF maps with objectives removed provide some nice additional arenas. VCTF/WAR maps do the same while also providing vehicles for killing the invading monsters!

[Zablorg]

Wow, this is amazing. I have a couple of questions, though;

Whats the point of having invasion in CTF/VCTF/WAR maps, when their layout is objective based and so far as I know those objectives are not supposed to be completed in Invasion.

[Galtanor]

Galtanor deemer, can you reduce its rate of fire and slow down the speed of the projectile or make it a bit fatter, its too hardcore currently, even just as a boss weapon.

Biomechspiders- can you have it fire bio blobs instead of link plasma like the other minimechspiders. A large version would also look cool, can call him The_Blob

Yeah, I can change the redeemer missile.

The little biospider I just slapped together to see how well it looked. I intented to make some changes and do a monster that is just the blob.

Can we have deemer as a monster drop item plz- popular request on our server ;p

Yeah, I can add that to the list

We need BENDER!!!

Ok... fortunately the author left his contact information. I can email him and see if he will let us use it.

Teenage Mutant Ninja...Tiger...Bunny
His Movement should be simply crazy, something like this:
Seroiusly, he should dodge, strafe and jump all the way and it would be great if he makes that wall jumps a lot. I also would like to make 1 acrobatic animation.

For his attack: He will aim at the head so if you have not enough hp left he will behead you! His attack can be dodged by dodge jumping to a side. I think it would be very cool if you can make it random from which side he swings his sword? So you have to look to which side you have to dodge. When he finished his attack he should retreat and then come again with his crazy movement. Maybe it would be also cool that he normaly sneakes slowly around and when he sees a player he gos in crazy mode.

Wow, impressive. You out do yourself again Davision. And yes, if you have seperate animations for them I can create a randomized trigger to select the one he uses. I dont know how much of the AI suggestions I can get working, but I can try.

www.moddb.com now has Galtanors Invasion up: http://www.moddb.com/games/unreal-to...ddons/galtanor. I ended up putting it in the addons category and they accepted it (even tho it doesnt quite fit.)

Had no problems reported on our server, try reinstalling and dont run any other mods to narrow down the problem.

[DigitalNapalm]

v018 seems to do some weird stuff for me. It crashes out when I kill a freeze bunny. Every time. I get erroneous "package missing" errors. GP_onslaught seems to be the one hanging up mostly.

[Davision]

**** Davision, you just don't stop making brilliant models do you?

thx, i just cant stop!

@ Cyzmyass
thx
For making him a tiger i would need to sculpt a full new head otherwise it would be messy, so he stays a bunny with some tiger genes
