JBAddon Spoils of Victory

[TheForgotten]

Just finished creating an addon that grants the winner of an arena match a weapon. However I've got nowwhere to upload it to - anyone got any ideas.

Originally I was simply trying to combine the beserk from avenger with dual assault rifles, but I added the choice of which weapon.

[Mychaeel]

Sounds good...

Depending on how big the add-on is, you could just attach it to a posting here, and we can pick it up from there to mirror it on BeyondUnreal (and put it on the add-on download page).

[TheForgotten]

It's a whopping 6.5KB (It's not exactly compilcated, but I'm new at this).
I didn't even notice the attachment option.

only give the guy a certain weapon? Might be easier to create a little room in your map: at the top a playerstart, in the middle a second AR and at the bottom a teleporter, which teleports in to a certain point in the map. Or do you want to that option in other maps as well?

[TheSpoonDog]

Yes, this way it's a global reward and not just map-specific. You can make a playerstart Arena-winner-only-enabled for a special inventory room for them, but it's entirely up to the mapper then

[tarquin]

Sounds good!

Is this compiled for UT2003 or UT2004?

Mych / Sexmachine -- have either of you put it up on PJB yet?

If someone can test it and report back here, I'll put it up on PJB and post news about it

This doesn't compile in UT2003.

These lines don't work:

AssaultRifle(Inv).Loaded();
Spoils.MaxOutAmmo();

[TheForgotten]

AssaultRifle(Inv).Loaded();

This was a quick way of turning an assault rifle into dual assault rifles which ut2003 dosn't support anyway - might aswell delete all of

if (WeaponClass == class'XWeapons.AssaultRifle')
{
  for(Inv = Avenger.Inventory; Inv != None; Inv = Inv.Inventory)
    if(Inv.IsA('AssaultRifle'))
    {
      AssaultRifle(Inv).Loaded();
    }
}

Spoils.MaxOutAmmo();

There's probaly a quick way of doing this in ut2003 but I don't know what it is

Also Ut2003 dosn't support the onslaught weapons etc. I do have a half finished version which gave access to all the installed in the game - I'll upload when I can.

[TheForgotten]

Here it is -
Know bugs:

Combo box unsorted (minor annoyance)
Dual Assault rifle listed as assault rifle in combo box.
Dosn't automatically select spoils weapon.
Loads weapon setting from ini file based on combo box index

but there are probably more.

You using a CVS for this?

If I'm working on the UT2003 version, gane you give me access and we'll set up a 2k3 branch?

New (Final? said that before) version
Fixed a few bugs, added Super Shock Rifles
Still no ut2003 version - because I don't own it.

This final version, unless there's a major bug, or someone smarter than me can tell me how to tell if any weapon is capable of being used akimobo - and how to do it.

Web admin support might be broken.

Edit - I guess it wasn't final version

[Jrubzjeknf]

I don't recommend using akimbo, akimobo are whatever you call it. The weapons would be blocking your FOV too much. Just stick with this plz. If you wanna know anyway, you maybe could get some info/code out of Akimbo mutator for UT99. Just search fileplanet for it

[TheForgotten]

Looks like I wasn't clear enough. The Assault rifle is awarded as duel assault rifles (any sub-class should be aswell) - but a weapon designed to be used akimbo but not sub classed (ie. ChaosUT CPP) can't be without writing code for each weapon - unless someone can tell me how.

[TheForgotten]

Another Day, Another version. (And I'm smatter today, than yesterday).

My appolgies to those people who already have yesterdays version.
This is my FINAL version - Does everything I want it too.

yet another attachement removal.

[Jrubzjeknf]

congrats m8!

TheForgotten, Is the int file for the most recent NoJailKill the same as for the most recent Spoils of Victory?

I'm not sure what you are asking - NoJailKill and SpoilsofVictory were released seperatley, and have different int files, but both files are almost the same, only the name changes.
Did I include the wrong file?

[Public]
Object=(Class=Class,MetaClass=Jailbreak.JBAddon,Name=JBAddonSpoils.JBAddonSpoils)

[Public]
Object=(Class=Class,MetaClass=Jailbreak.JBAddon,Name=JBAddonNoJailKill.JBAddonNoJailKill)

[ChaosJester]

In the archive that was the most recently published here, the Spoils of Victory file was named NoJailKill. So it might have been the wrong one.
