New Samus Thread

[Testrun]

I would suggest a beam cannon of sorts. Like, Hyper Beam cannon.

But you would need to know how to program lasers and stuff though on a weapon first(I suggest looking on the satellite painter gun code first, the default gun in UT2004 that shoots a laser, then after 5-6 seconds a giant explosion of death appears)

Actually, Zero Samus got a Stun/Freeze gun...

It could be like the old enforcer, but with the second fire having a freeze function that has to be charged up...

Yeah, I knew she had a freeze gun, but I suggested a hyper beam cannon on the fact that it's more easier to do than a freeze gun

But if you REALLY want a freeze gun...it'll be complicated(at the top of my head, I'm thinking of some sort of laser which, upon hit of an actor, will give it an inventory, which in turn will set the actor's velocity to zero, and will last for like 6 seconds)

If that's the case though there should be a ice static mesh that needs to be spawned in the player to emulate freezing.

Actual Samus has a stun gun. It paralyzes, not literally freezes them, heh. If there was a way to make it so they just fall over or something, like an anim or just turn them into a ragdoll for short period that would be good.

Yeah, ragdoll is the best way to do them 'stunning' effects. I mean, more easier than giving an actor an inventory that reduces their velocity, etc.

There was a mutator that turns actors/players into ragdolls, thereby emulating stunning. It was configurable based on either a set amount of damage taken before going limp, or on a specific damage type(the mutator's not mine, and it's still in beta. I suggest asking permission first from the author if you really want to try it):ftp://ftp.unreal-design.com/downloads/ut2004/mutators/Ragdoll madness/RagdollMadness.zip

The freeze gun sounds kinda cool though

That's a good idea, maiby they could twitch a bit too!

I'm gonna bump this thread for the purpose of asking for any updates on the model...

 

[SleepyHe4d]

No. This model has been worked on for over a year, you expect updates already? Anyways he's probably finished making any big changes. (Okay, he might post pics just cause you asked but I doubt there will be anything new besides the poses he likes to put her in )

Anyways, I have 2 things to say.

1.

Well, now that you put it THAT way...she now looks more hotter than before =D

Don't roll over so easy! Just knowing she isn't an exact copy of Nintendo's version doesn't magically make her look any different.

2. I don't think the gun or any custom stuff is a good idea. I mean look at how many people play UT3 and then what small fraction of them are even gonna use this model? Too much work for just adding an unbalanced element that probably won't even get used unless for messing around.

Just my opinion though. It's been a long time since this model started and I went from wanting to play UT3 and playing 2k4 to not wanting to ever touch either again so I won't get a chance to use this model anyways.

Wow, I put a lot of smileys.

 

[XenoAisam]

i heard fenix going to make model for crysis~
dunno~
just his word from msn~

 

[Garcian]

Wait, Crysis? Has he quit UT?

 

[Testrun]

No. This model has been worked on for over a year, you expect updates already?

I was asking for updates cause he stated a few posts back that he was supposed to upload the model in the same week. Which he didn't, hence my question.

Don't roll over so easy! Just knowing she isn't an exact copy of Nintendo's version doesn't magically make her look any different.

More wider broad shoulders, more bigger boobs, sharper and more refined face...you don't call that 'look different'?

And you say this because you think people don't play UT2004 anymore?

Why don't you try logging to a ut2004 server and check the number of users there?

Or the number of downloads per week on the UT2004 files of, say, unrealtournament2004.filefront.com or utzone.de or skincity.beyondunreal.com?

Or the mods that are still being made despite the fact that there is already UT3?

Or that the fact that me, along with 27 of my old college classmates STILL play ut2004?

 

[Seyiji]

Wow someone needs to calm down :\

By the way has anyone looked at the most recent comment on GF's profile?

yeah, I finally have escaped from this crappy forum life. See ya

for now

Has Real Life™ reared its ugly head?

 

[Goldfenix]

hah. Hey i appreciate you being defensive of this project and all Testrun, but dont worry, those werent attacks on the work. I need the criticism anyways. About me not being around anymore or often, that is true. I will finish Samus for UT2k4, and maybe some others that are ready or close; like Alma, then I am taking a break. I am not done here, I mean its really easy to make characters for Ut2k4 than it is anyother.

Oh and yeah, heh, I know I have spent like 2 years on this almost, come August. I have been extremely lazy on this, but I wont just not release it after all this. I think I will release her has v1 without the gun, and if I can get custom scripts for that I will release another version later. When, I dont know

If you want to know what I am doing now, I am basically catching up with real life, since I have been gone for so long. I have a girlfriend now, friends, and I am just trying to keep in touch i guess.

We understand GF, real-life is the most important, especially if you got a girlfriend!

Nah, just drank too much beer that time.

Oh and just so you know, I meant that knowing the info doesn't make his model look any different from that same model if you didn't know the info. Also for the other part I wasn't even considering UT2k4, I have no idea what GF's plans to do with this are. ><
