I'll spam the board with my questions whenever I feel so. Answer at your discretion.

Mmmmm spammmm....*nom nom nom*

locked textures? I've got 3.3Gb of .dds textures to edit at your heart's content. The only problem is editting the pkmdl models. (you like file format reverse engineering?)

In UT3 they locked some of the textures I tried to export the pistol in DDS format and editor would no allow it it was quite annoying pissed me off enough well that and how they made it to go back to UT04 and focus on it more.
All I can do is some basic level of skinning

If you just want to edit dmg/ROF/ammo, that's easy=a good start. If you want to change its looks, give up (see comment above).

Thats what I go after first, the way I mod I make up crazy explanations for relatively simple and easy mods.

Or by 455holes like me who love mindless butchery.

I can only handle so much redundancy before I need to do something else,thus why I hate no death bioshock as much as I do....

mag rail=?
tech explanation:
-longer barrel=more speed=power
-vs damaged/overused barrel (more friction/gas leaks)

.... ok Hi tech,tech and magic

Generally those need visual updates then again so would a magnetic rail system (bullet is fired or assisted using magnetism) but if you can micronize it and have it inside the weapon overhauling how it looks is not as badly needed...since I has little skill in changing skins much less models ><.

For Necrovision HI-tech explanations might not work, but a magic based one where you explain the pistol is a keep sake and due to all the magic circleing around its been enhanced.

When I said "can you fit a rifle round in a gun handle" I didn't mean that the problem is how many rounds you can stack in a clip, but instead that the bullet are contained in the clip and the clip is contained in the gun handle and the gun handle in contained in the hand. So would the handle fit in the hand?

Problly not but when its dual wielded the clip is not seen reloaded..so we don't have to worry about such details just hammer out a better gameplay/fun balance

600 NE?

Thinking more .50 cal pistol

And ya the Nitro as well...there was another one I saw....*goes to look* ...oh never mind its the 600 NE.

ammoPICKUP being a child of the weapon is somehow defendable (weapon pickup gives ammo, ammo pickup=weapon pickup with different looks)...but ammo itself shouldn't even be a class, just a number in the AmmoAmount array. WTF did they come up with this time?...

I have a problem in UT04 I can't get minigun and a assault rifle to share ammo after some attempts and more research I found I need to disable bNoAmmoInstances.... but I am unsure how to implement it (weapon.bNoAmmoInstances or use it as a starting bool and set bNoAmmoInstances=false in the default properties)0-o had no luck getting something to work ><

The line is (in Colt1911.lua): w._ammoInMagazine = w._ammoInMagazine - 1
Think you can manage on your own?

Ya once I get the damn utility , how big is it? I'm on dailup until I get back home...

That's your point of view. Many people say it's the only way to beat Zimmermann in hard mode. (Personally I'll wait until I've finished my mod before playing in hard)

Ya but so far the game is rather easy but for a couple parts that are more buggy than they should be...

Ok, both assault rifler are similar,but do you use the minigun like the .38 rifle? Shishkebab like fatman? Flamer and shotgun?

The ARs feel the same the pistols feel the same but for the .45 and the Silenced 10MM, the combat shotgun thats really a street sweeper (what they have in the game is not a shotgun its a STREETSWEEPER....shotgun 2 barrels<Combat shotgun<Street Sweeper) is my fav weapon that and the railway rifle.

The energy weapons are under powered even made a energy weapon mod that comes in a few versions of more than 50 files, the normal energy weapons and heavy energy weapons get a low,mid,high and high but balanced sets and I packaged all the single weapon mod files so people can mix and match how they want it...forgot the Prime lazer tho >>

You begin to know how to code by knowing how to copy&paste the right things.

Ya but how mnay years to I ahve to cut and apste to understand WTF I am doing??

Do you get continuous whining or just during gfx stresses? 'Coz mine whines when the gfx card does intensive work... Did check whether it's from the psu of the gfx card though.

It did it for my EVGA 8800 610MB super clock and the old ATI 3870 so its not my 400$ at the time of purchase and no I am not regretting it video card..., its the PSU whats really bad the reason I have lowered my usage of it is when I am playing, when I play a game a it goes to load a level it will stop whining and the computer acts as its its trying to catch its breath for a few seconds before being able to finish loading.

1-"I am thus I rush toward the player."
2-Did you check its psu?

My PSU is going..I try and give it a jolt by sticking my fingers in a socket..but it only gives me a slight buzz....

It wasn't built for confort. It wasn't built for finesse. It was built for one thing only: total destruction. And for this, the serious sam AI is perfectly fit.

I was talking about Bioshock not necrovision in regrads to SS2's AI being better. Necrovision is a solid no fuss no muss FPS.
=======================

No. If you want innovation you can try zeno clash, tower of goo, crayon,perhaps dead space, monster madness...'Kay those aren't fps.
BTW: I loved CB jericho, me.

Innovation=well used designs be they new or not.


I think it was the lack of jump and the on the rails design and bad AI that just totally turned me off of it.... I couldn't play it it was just to boring/stupid
necrovision is great because the AI dose not matter since you are given large enough levels that can be explored and enough weapons to walk over the 3rd riche 3 times over .

Dark messiah got alot right,Halo 1 got alot right,Undying got alot right,Arx fatalis got alot right for a RPG heavy title. Most other games are far to simplified and lacking.....and I need to try Dead space sometime soon so I can whine on it...its no wonder I can hear the capacitors on my monitor and PSU crying...

EDIT: I forgot to say: the luger is a P08 not a C96

Ya I have FO3 on the brains again..... I need to check and see if I can find my saves after I had to reinstall my OS.... see if I can try and figure out how the hell to mod weapons on it again...doing basic tweaks is easy but good god I could not figure out how to add poison to a weapon...instead I put fire on it but meh.....I wanted to use radiation for my

Centaur

but radiation is only used to fck over the player.....and nothing else...god F03 is a watered down simplified mess..... *annoyed rant rant annoyed*
