Summon Monsters?

[shan]

Can you summon monsters in Infiltration? All of the bnomonsters in my INI files =no as do all the bhumansonly.

When I try to summon with the command:

admin summon unreali.skaarjwarrior

or

summon unreali.skaarjwarrior

it does not work? Do I need to change anything else?

Also, where can I get that Zombie mutator?

[geogob]

yeah and how do you summon a redeemer?

 

[Gaia]

I don't know how to do it I'm afraid, but I remember people doing it in 2.86, so I presume it should be doable in 2.9

 

[Ebonite DPW]

Redeemer I believe is "warheadlauncher". Looks to me like your syntax is correct, but then again, I was never good at summoning stuff, so it is most likely you are missing an additional quantifier. Another possibility is that the Sentry team disabled "spawning" for whatever reason in 2.9, much like they disabled free ghosting and modified the scoreboard.

I believe Redeemers and all other UT weapons will be removed instantly. As for monsters, can't remember the names of them all, but try 'summon unreali.queen'.

You can get TBT Zombies from CombatMaps.

I tried that last night Crowze and it did not work. Maybe they disabled it.

NE1 know if SS disabled summoning of monsters?

Queens and Titans need lots of head room, but the syntax is correct I havent tried to summon in 2.9 yet. But summon unreali.X is correct for 2.86

 

[Cleeus[JgKdo]]

it still works, i have tried it
you know, that you have to be an admin to use summon?
try flying in the air a bit and then summon

 

[fist_mlrs]

im still using nalis for target practice

 

[shan]

Yes, I logged on as admin prior to trying it. Not sure why it is not working. I will try again tonight.

I think Crowze is right in saying that UT weapons will be removed. However, there is a workaround with the redeemer - you can summon the missile itself without the launcher. I can't remember the actual class you need to quote, but I know it can be summoned. In fact, I think it's bound to my period key for some beta testing during the throes of 2.86.

 

[shan]

Sorry all. Forgot to post a note to say it is working properly. My problem was I did not know how large the monster I was trying to summon was (Queen) and it will not summon if the ceiling is not high enough. Duh!

On the wepon thing, there are a few you can summon but you cannot use any of them. Most of the ones you summon are replaced by the M16, so you hit enter for the summon command and an M16 pops out.

Thanks again for all the help. Monster night was a huge success.

Botpack.warshell or botpack.shockwave

Alternatively you could try using the [oWo]Tallyho mutator for UT. I can't remember how but I used to play that with INF weapons for a laugh. Pretty fun little mutie too

 

[shan]

Do you have a link to thsi mutator? Can you say a bit about what it is?

Shan

Aaaah geez, you're making me work for you.... http://www.planetunreal.com/features/tallyho/ is a review but I can't find the official site for download. Sorry, I tried but not for very long...

Tallyho! is a mutator that spawns monsters from Unreal for you to kill. Essentially it's quite a big change from normal UT play in that your health increases by shooting monsters as does your fragcount. You get frags from shooting (and killing as well) monsters, so the frag count is more like a score, usually in the thousands by the end of the match. Very fast paced good fun. A bit odd with Infiltration weapons but fun nonetheless...

Found a working mirror for the file: http://www.thegamebox.net/files/Unreal_Tournament/Mutators/owo_tallyho_104a.zip

And you could also check out CTMonsters by CyanideTrisquit, but AFAIK it's not compatible with INF 2.9. INFMonsters2 (link in my sig), which is based on an early version of CTMonsters, is. Sort of.

Thans Olethros! I had tried using CTMonsters and ran into issues. Nice to see you have one for INF 2.9.

This will make Monster Night much nicer for me. It gets tiring racing around the map summoning monsters. The aliases helped quite a bit.
