Great work Geogob. Thanks for the release. FYI, RealTargets is running on both the TDM and DTAS servers.

That's great news to me Shan. I'll have to be honnest here. I was very far from ready for any kind of release. This release only intent was a response to the recent removal of BS4 from your servers. I wanted it back as fast as possible and many other felt that way. So it's a relief.

Its great Geo, you finalizing this (although it makes my aim suck worse ;) )
I'm just curious:

How are you planning to deal with the animations? Will they be taken care of by the original cylinders?

Will (or is) the system able to detect the angle the bullets hits the surface (like the vest)? Would be cool to include bullet reflection (instead of penetration) at very flat angles when hitting the vest or the helmet.

Current real targets is practically BS4 with the prone lean and lean fixed. geogob is gonna fix head issues and hitting while moving issues next and hopefully it will be totally bug free (im sure we will hear from the whiners if it isnt ;) )

Nukeproof, for bullet reflection, you'd better forget that. I should be possible but the huge amount of work to do that is simply not justified. I have an idea how this could be done, but calculating the angle of incidence on a surface, then respawning the bullet with a new orientation will be really time consumping code-wise and CPU-wise. Infiltration is heavy enough at it is right now.

For animations, no, it will not be done by original hit detection. Right now, for the animations, the same hit detection as for still position is used. I have a few idea how to deal with animations, but I'l have to look into that a little bit more. Right now I'm working on getting the still positions fixed.

OK got a new version ready. Shan and Odie already have it so, it might already be on SG and GD. "Only" new things in this update is an integrated advisory telling players on each rounds start that RealTargets is running (can be disabled via console command or ini).
Also, in this version, all realtargets parameters can be configured either via the ini or by the console (when loggen in as admin).

Anyways, it seems to be working fine so I'll release it here as soon as i redo the Readme file.

Yes, I have it. It is not on my servers yet. It will be tomorrow morning. Tired....gotta crash. Sorry for any impending mismatches in the meantime. Epic should come up with a community Mutator system. :)

geo, please, can you take out the 'w00t leet' blah when hitmessages are on? It strikes me as amazing why you would want to put that useless stuff in a serious mutator like this. really.

The 'w00t' was actually the first modification I made to bulletsounds4 (it was still under that name at that moment). It was just to convince me that "Hey, I can actually modify this ****". I have to be honnest with you guys... With this mutator, it is my first experience with the following things: Unreal Script, .uc architecture, ucc compiler, Unreal ED, Coding for gaming, reading and understanding yurch's code, reading and understanding Infiltration's code. Now, for those who are not familiar with programmation, this is a lot of stuff to learn at the same time. Of course I have an extensive programmation history behind me so it's no big deal. So i was quite happy the first time it compiled and when i saw the "w00t" on screen.

Anyway, as NTKB said the hit message are only for testing purposes, so why worry? But since I'm a nice guy I will remove it. Maybe I could put 'Not w00t because zeep doesn't like l33t speak... but you have hit <bodypart> anyway' ;)

Since it will take me about 2 seconds to remove I don't mind.

Brings back memories... Of the 2.5 year wait for 2.87/2.9. *shudder*

How's it going Geogob? Remember, give the INF guy proper head.
