Proposed FragBU Mutator

Dark Pulse · 8th Oct 2004, 07:00 AM

It won't affect gameplay at all, and might spice things up a little. Without further Ado, I present to you... Verbage.

" Killed this, killed that. How boring. There are so many other verbs you can use, so why not add a little variety?

More specifically, this mutator changes the "You killed Cabbage" or "You were killed by Cabbage" messages to substitute different verbs: fragged, grounded, smote, popped, nailed, juiced, stomped and so on. You can change the verb list by editing the Verbage.int file."

I've also written a pretty meaty Verbage.int file (5.5kb) that's chock full of creative things. When's the last time you...

"played operation with [BU]Raffi_B"?

"flame-broiled Haarg"?

"gave a new definition of pain to hal"?

"slapped the yellow off the teeth of [LAC]Dark_Pulse"?

All these - and more - can be in there. Since Ketnar's a "Family-Friendly" server (Or is it?) we can always neatly snip my more adult-languaged ones.

Enclosed is the mod itself, with my custom verbage.int. Take a look at it, tell me what you think, and maybe we can slap it on for that defining screenshot we all want, eh?

EDIT: I'm always looking for more things to add. "Slap in the eyes" is going in there. Here's the syntax to keep in mind:

For KILLING SOMEONE: "You <x> Player" where <x> is anything. Just make sure it makes sense.

For BEING KILLED: "You were <x> by Player" again, where <x> is anything.

Verbage.int is a plain text file, so before suggesting anything, please open it up and make sure I don't have it or something very close to it.

Hehe...nice find. And it amazes me how many words there are for 'killed'. By the way, here are some more:
-burninated (this definately should be in

)
-outplayed
-killed
-fired
-discharged
-laughed at
-put into a coma
-llamatized (too bad you can't choose when it shows up

)
-set aside
-unplugged

You can change these yourself in one of your .int files and it will work for you regardless of what server you play on and what mutators the server has loaded.

we should also find a way to texture the flags with the red/blue FragBU logos

Xzimon · 8th Oct 2004, 10:43 AM

Yeah, i think this should really be in

I always use it offline, it's pretty awesome

I thought this was already possible. Ever checked the flag from CTF-Naelir?

On-topic: is it possible to enter cheat-protected servers with edited ini's?

W0RF · 8th Oct 2004, 01:33 PM

Well, then LET'S DO IT!!!!

Not sure. I don't think the .int files are checked, but I'm not positive on that one.

It is fun to do, though

Dark Pulse · 8th Oct 2004, 02:19 PM

I'm pretty sure it's possible, as I edited OnslaughtBP.int (To fix the Cicada kill message) and I haven't gotten booted by AntiTCC, and you KNOW that's picky.

It's a small mut, and it might give some cheap laffs. I say go for it.

W0RF · 8th Oct 2004, 02:43 PM

Maybe we could edit the death message for telefrags too? I do not have "their" atoms scattered by anything.

*Sir_Brizz* · 8th Oct 2004, 02:47 PM

why not just edit the .int file with the messages in it and distribute it for those that want it? then they can keep the old death messages if they want to.

Crashmaster007 · 8th Oct 2004, 05:02 PM

Looks fun. SHould add some more humor to the game.

SoraUT · 8th Oct 2004, 06:12 PM

how about some of these:
"-name- has been snuffed out by -name-"
"-name- got bitch slapped by -name-"
"-name- got slapped in the eyes by-name-"
"-name- burninated -name-"

Snuffed's already in there.
Bitchslapped is already in there.
Slapped in the eyes was recently added.
Burninated was recently added.

burninated has been added.
outplayed has been added.
killed kinda defeats the purpose of this mute.

fired doesn't sound good.
discharged has been added.
laughed at has been added, with some slight additions for killer message.
put into a coma added for death message only (Doesn't fit the Killer syntax)
llamatized has been added.
set aside doesn't sound good.
unplugged has been added.

New INT size: 5.7k

All the files in zip go into System,correct?

TwiTchY · 8th Oct 2004, 07:35 PM

Nevermind,i found out that they do

KaL976 · 8th Oct 2004, 07:52 PM

Cool, thanks for the Mut. My ini's are edited to hell & back, never a problem online.

Sweet, I used this mutator in my UT2003 days. It was great then!
