UT2kX Unreal II/XMP weapons mutator

[Blade_hunter]

I tried it and there is a few bugs I noticed.

CAR when you empty the gun it doesn't play the reload anim
the Hydra grenade launcher when we switch ammo the "loader" turns back after switching

 

[GreatEmerald]

CAR does play it, but somehow gets interrupted in the process. And it plays it fine if you reload manually. I guess I should see if I can do anything about it. And yes, I know about the Hydra, but it needs a bit of a rewrite overall.

vulcan flamethrover - no burning pawns if I flame them - I mean that they don't burn.

 

[GreatEmerald]

They burn for me. Not sure why you'd get anything different.

 

[Dozey]

bad magic forces - my OpenGL card maybe
anyway - when running and fireing with car - it don't play animation of fireing.

 

[GreatEmerald]

No clue, that works fine for me.

So you propose to change graphic card to NVIDIA??

 

[GreatEmerald]

I'm using AMD. So that's probably something else on your end.

I know I am fu*king blind that I've discovered it today - Dude where is SHOTGUN???

It's there. It just doesn't replace the linkgun in games that have vehicles enabled (otherwise you couldn't heal them or nodes, which is a major part of the game).

If you want to have it even in those gametypes, then use WORM or some other weapon replacement mod to customise it (though you'll lose the added features of the stock mutator).

If I could get the Mind Claw animations working, I could make it replace the linkgun, as it's also a healing weapon. But so far I don't have them, so...

 

[Dozey]

how to summon pickup in game? Noob question caused by my buggy editor and I can't check it in invetory group.

 

[GreatEmerald]

summon U2Weapons.U2PickupShotgun

 

[Dozey]

Are you gonna to add also Singularity Cannon?

 

[GreatEmerald]

If VendorX was to finish his script for exporting the meshes, then yes. Otherwise, no, there are no animations for it...

 

[Evill_Bob]

Oh man, I remember looking for something like this YEARS ago. Definitely giving this a go.

EDIT: After a LOAD of games with this I can say the bots have no idea what these things are and some are convinced they are some sort of advanced alien q-tip, I have no such illusion and have tested these weapons on those poor confused bots EXTENSIVELY. I'd like to see a limiter on the turrets though, otherwise matches turn into ONS-Primeval Spidermine VS quick... except instead of little hopping exploding spiders there's bullets and rockets everywhere. I believe Mr Evil did that with his Turrets.

A bit more polish and this mod will rank up there with Chaos: Evolution in my book.

I see that still you have problem with assembly all SM for the meshes - it's not that hard ))... Tip: use the meshes as they are and in run-time attache all SMs to corresponding bones. This will have very little impact on performance cause they're not natively assembled, but should work...

No, not really. All I need is the meshes that are actually in GEM format, like the Singularity Cannon. Though they might already work fine and be available at this point, I just haven't checked (I'm working on a different mod at the moment).

 

[DeusIX]

Even if it (animations?) doesn't work, why not use a template gun (shieldgun) as a placeholder?
If the weapons physique works, but looks strange, I would still like to use it.

So GreatEmerald are you done with your 'other project'

 

[GreatEmerald]

Animations should work at this point. And no, I'm still working on the other project (UT3 weapons), and will be working on it for quite a while still.
