UnrealTournament Extension Pack

[GreatEmerald]

OK, so anything new yet?
Now as I'm more into UE2 I can see how cool are the emitters... Not sure about the projectors though.
And what's left to do?

 

[War_Master]

Ya, Emitters are really cool in UT2kx. I learned the differences and purposes of the Emitters and XEmitters when I made a mod a few months ago and learned how to use the Materials as well. My mod was just the LightningGun into a team colored instagib and added other weapons as instagibs also but that really took me about a month to learn by trial and error since I had no internet to read about them. If this mod has all those features as mentioned, I hope they are very similar configurations as the ones in UT2kx so that I can get the hang of it quik because Im waiting for the final release (if there's any before UT dies) so that I can use them for my weapon mods.

Would be nice to see a clip on youtube showing some of the things about this mods specially the vehicles, materials and emitters. So far I've only seen screenshots which can be modified in photoshop or taken in UT2k4 which is not convincing me yet that it exists. i'd really like to see other then just screenshots though.

 

[GreatEmerald]

There are simply Emitters? Hah! Still lots to learn. Actually, the jumppads are very wise there. Not like Kickers in UT. With JumpPads you don't have to worry about the place everyone drop as it is auto calculated.
UT won't die... Still too active, more than any other U versions.
Actually, I haven't even seen screenshots... Only the demo ones on ModDB, really, graphics give more info than writings.

Oh boy, I'm glad I found this thread. I agree with GreatEmerald, UT won't ever die. This package is just what the community needs to get a major boost.
I just skimmed through the thread, sorry if I missed a similar question. What affect will this have on my computer in terms of performance?

 

[iSenSe]

.. if u think this is awesome,

check the UTRP project
and be amazed

 

[GreatEmerald]

Mental, yea, you missed that one

most of the NEW optimized code was tested on the following machine:
P4M - 2,6 GHZ
256 MB DDR1 Ram
GeforceFX Go5200
80 GB HDD

And it worked fine, you should know that the new Particle Systems have around 20 different performance settings.. I already mentioned that
<...>
you don't have to worry, it'll be tested on a non-highend machine

And yeap, UTRP + UTEP = UTPP (Unreal Tournament Power Pack )

 

[16MentalTempest]

Thanks GE. Wow, that'll run easily on my laptop.

 

[GreatEmerald]

So... It should have been out or somewhere near out. How's it going with the project? I see that the ModDB has a list of things and their state... Nice, but it still looks like a lot of work to do!

 

[FXD|Shadow]

I'm currently involved in other projects, also it'll take it's time as long as needs, for short: when it's done. No one likes a half-finished bugy program.

 

[GreatEmerald]

Well, not quite Finished things could be published you know... It would be really not good if this project silently fell to inactivity and would never see the light of day like many cool projects before.

 

[GreatEmerald]

Hmm, although it's good to see the status of all components, but now I have no idea on what changes. Would it be possible to post what changed after an edit on ModDB page?

 

[RoninMastaFX]

Shadow, ma man...how's this mod coming along? I know you're busy with other projects (and trust me, I know since I'm working on 4 mods and 2 UTGOTY maps at once XD), and I know you're a lazy bastard (like myself...to a degree XD), but I'm sure everyone here, including myself, need some updates?

Other than that, I hope you are doing well. It's been a long time since I've heard and seen you on ut99.org and BuF. XD Hopefully everything is going good.


Alright man, tc.

lol Its easy lol.

 

[GreatEmerald]

Nothing new. I have no time. It slowly faded into No-Time-State. I'll continue work during Summer-Vacations, if I should be at home, don't expect that I'm going to code at my girlfriends PC !

I can not wait for this. Holy crap.

That means we got about 3-4 more years to go... yay!

[War_Master]

the Shader/Combiner and the Particle/Emitter systems are all I want. Everything else, I might consider it but I dont find any use to them at the moment and it is whats making this mod delay too much.
