Post #321
You done did fucked it up then, lul. Undo what you changed.
-
-
The official US server now has a fastdl for the map and files, and a problem with downloading the geiger wav files has been fixed too. (also re-enabled Scriptenforcer and I think MerzBro added some updates too)
-
Do you own the server or are you just helping Nüke/Merzbro?
-
Inventory saving works again, after wiping my precious database... Went back to rp_apocalypse, lol.
-
Q: Why do they call it TheGarbage?
A: Because it's a piece of shit map that is Literally Garbage.
Here's some recent changes made:
- fixed anomaly spawn code to work on shit maps too!
- artifacts are more cool looking now.
- zombies suck less.
- fixed clipping on ragdoll cam.
- fixed resource bug.
- more convars.
- kleiner is a chintzy fuck now.
- tweaked weapon balance a bunch.
- exodus now has the shittier weapons.

Big Gay Todo List:
- Possibly add a "Stash All" option to the menu for when you're at the trader.
- Fix problems with super anomaly code + teleport code + blink code.
- Perhaps make the +walk key hold your gun down in a holstered fashion?
-
Oh no! Shitter weapons for Exodus? Nooo!! I haven't updated yet, but how do I catch artifacts? Lol. I can't pick them up!!
E:
What was wrong with resources?
DOUBLE EDIT BLARGH:
Is the resources_stalker (when renamed to resources) supposed to make the clients download the models? Well, it didn't do that when I tried to do that.
Christ's sake, another edit!:
Not gonna be a douch and advert, but... But... I've got a regular Radbox (Latest of today 03/13/2011) on rp_apoclypse, lag free. To spice things up, PAC2 is installed (It's hard creating a outfit without the spawn menu, tho) and you can wear your outfits by using this command in the pac_show_editor in the console. 109.169.29.210:27015.
Uba duba edit:
Could you add stats? Like levels? You kill, you earn EXP. When you level up, you're given a choice between perks you can choose (Like fallout), stuff like "Heavy Weapons training" (that means you can now wield stuff like para, etc...) and so on. It would make gameplay more addictive.
edit for tah last time, I hope:
What is info_skymarker?
Gah, I had to edit again...:
Make it so when you left click, it'll stash/sell/loot?
-
Since when did they have good weapons? I was always under the assumption that MWA had the best weapons... but then again last time I played this was almost a year ago.
-
They had the SG552, which is severely overpowered because it is on par with the top tier rifle from WMA, the AUG.
-
Exodus already has access to all of the gadgets and such. Giving them access to good guns made them pretty overpowered. Plus the bandoliers didn't have anything worth buying with their increased payoffs.
-
The annoying thing is that they just change faction to buy that crap.
-
What do y'all think about creating a "wandering merchant", buys things at 25%, sells at 150%, neutral across the factions (just don't shoot him, because players WILL be his enemy from then on), also creates a mission waypoint that would move around. Treat him like a rouge NPC , only more limited, max .5 per player (so that with a 4 person game, you'd have two wandering merchants, 6 gives you three, etc.) Thoughts???
-
Good idea, but make him sell rare stuff.
-
I own the server (I also owned the previous official server from a year ago) I also code Lua, but I am currently not helping him (although sooner or later I may ask if there's some stuff I can add, once I get a better "feel" for the gamemode)
Wandering merchant idea is really cool.
-
A wandering merchant might be feasible. If i did make one it would use the Odessa model and his buyback prices would be shittier than Kleiner's.
Also, i've made use of JetBoom's Lua Animation Tool. Now you can holster your weapon so you aren't always pointing it in people's faces (like in STALKER). Also with the Hands SWEP you can do all sorts of animations by right clicking.
Edited:
Feel free to post new animation ideas. I'm going to add an army salute.
-
I still want body armour. It's way to easy to be killed by a random rogue. And try to make some new really expensive items, so that you have something to work towards.
Also, have you considered crafting?
-
Exosuits too then, because of the stalker inspiration.
-
Not really a point in adding that crap, you already can buy respirators which are essentially the same as an exosuit. I'm not adding body armor, since it'd just be more conducive to people being dicks and getting away with it.
-
True, but adding damage resistance is pretty cool. Also, exosuits look fucking boss.
-
But they look cool! XD
As for animations:
Sitting (Around campfire or something of the sort)
Laying Down (Ragdolls could work instead I guess)
Hands Behind Back (Some sort of arrested, or tied up)
-
Sitting and laying down are pretty tall orders, the handcuffs one is easy though.
-
Was radiation implemented at the time the video in the OP was recorded? It seemed like he pretty much walked everywhere without getting radiation poisoning, whereas I just step one foot out of HQ and die of fatigue.
-
Radiation is randomly positioned when the map loads. So you basically have a unique experience every time the map loads. Anomalies also spawn in totally random places (There are some that have special spawn conditions... Cooker/hoverstone anomalies are more likely to spawn in clusters, whereas vortexes are usually isolated).
Radiation storms also take one active and one non-active radioactive deposit and swap them (turns the active one off, and the non-active one on). So the map is continually changing.

Also, the help menu is done in HTML. If someone wants to make it look nicer, here's the current shit.

Is it possible to like force RP? Like instead of having OOC as standard chat, what about having it as a IC chat? (The chat can be toggleable by an admin)
// = OOC (toggleable OOC time as seen in Tacoscript and Nexus)
/w = Whisper
/y = Yell
(nothing) = Local/IC chat
/me = Emotes
[[ or .// = Local OOC
/radio = Radio, if you got a handheld radio
/freq = Set your radios frequency to everything between 100.0 to 199.9 (Only people with that frequency will be able to see the chat used with /radio)
The inventory could be tweaked a little...
Double right click = Eat, stash, grab, sell or buy
Left click = Brings up the menu
Right click = No function needed?
If I remember correctly (near the release of radbox) there was a option allowing you to make a custom faction/group (just for the looks), is it possible to bring this feature back? (I'm not sure if it was this gamemode)
Edited:
That happened when I used animation point. Oh and yeah, with loners enabled, you can't spawn without choosing a faction through F2, if you do not press F2, you'll end up flying around, which could be baaad for new players who don't know how to spawn.Code:[@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil) [@radbox\gamemode\cl_boneanimlib.lua:139] bad argument #1 to 'pairs' (table expected, got nil)

Body armours would be cool to be honest.
At least the clothing and model itself, no need to add damage resistance.
Just for the looks.
-
Forcing people to talk in local mode sounds like an awful idea. If people want to talk OOC then it should be their choice.
Things like that are best left to server administrators, if you want to have a SRS RP server then you need to enforce the rules rather than have a script do it for you.
-
The animation selection would probably be easier as a radial menu, like voice commands in L4D.
-
Oh god yes. Merz, make us a spawn menu and compability with PAC2!
Toggleable? :hellyeah:MerzBro posted:
By the way, it looks like people lag out when they use animations. The guy who does the animation wont lag out except if he gets to see him self. Something is buuuggeeeedd!
-
All about Wandering Merchant having bad prices, that will keep faction members returning home often. I just like the idea of having another merchant that I can get some emergency health or ammo from, lighten my load if I've got a bunch of crap, and of course the possibility of sniping enemies as they try and restock themselves (just don't hit the merchant, lol). Maybe have him give players moderately larger rewards for completing missions, in order to encourage people to visit him?
I cannot WAIT to get more RAM next week, I've been taxing the HELLLLL out of my machine playing this (happily!)
-
It would be cooler if the merchant ran away if he heard bullets flying around, 'cus it would be cool if he got scared!
The merchant is a good idea for loners, because it's cool to be like a nomad walking around!
-
Even if it were toggleable i still don't like the idea of it. If a person wants to type normally then nothing should stop them. If someone is ruining the ~immersion~ in your server then either tell them to smarten up or kick them.
I could also make it so people can add their own stuff to the help menu (or just move the help menu HTML shit to moddable.lua for ease of editing).
Wandering merchant doesn't seem like that great of an idea to me either, it removes all the difficulty involved with exploring if you can just go and sell everything to him rather than have to head back to your base. Plus i'd have to do a lot of recoding to make it work and i don't really feel like doing that unless it's for a good reason.
Loners is an unfinished addition to the game, mainly because i don't know how to implement it. How would you join a faction as a loner? Either you'd have to talk to the faction trader or an admin would have to do it... Either way it seems lackluster.
-
Let loners be a faction, they'll only have access to looting. They'll get crates at random places in the wasteland, working the same way as a trader (only for storing items)
-
If loners are a faction the bandoliers are finally not being seen as raiders anymore. Thank god.
-
I guess it depends on how you're playing the game. So far my experience has been limited to two or three players , usually all in the same faction. It's a pretty wide open map with a lot of running back and forth, but there really isn't that much interactivity when there are so few players. This would add another interactive facet.
I do see your point though, especially if there was a larger group playing, you'd never have to go home to sell the loot you collect while DMing.... Hmmmm
Mind if I play around with making one for myself? I only host a LAN server, two of my friends play here on occasion, so they would end up with an edited version of your gamemode (I always keep originals on hand in case I screw something up, which is likely, lol). I've been recently learning LUA because I already wanted to make a merchant like this for our games, it just hadn't started it out with this gamemode in mind (started work on him about a 6 weeks ago, found this gamemode two weeks ago)
-
I think of loners as nomads, because it would be cool if loners were given stuff like ignite, prop spawning and physgun so they could make small camps around.

Fix it pls. When it first occurs, animations doesn't work anymore. Oh and yeah, does 3rd person work for you guys? Doesn't work on my server.
-
Join the official server. It has no addons and it works fine, so either you have something conflicting or you haven't installed properly. Make sure you are up to date too.
-
holy cow, there have been a butt ton of updates since I last checked! :S
-
As of revision 129 i have basically stopped working on this gamemode. Consider 129 the last update for a good while.
I have begun work on another gamemode that uses lots of parts of this gamemode, will be posting a WIP thread for it soon.
-
I feel there needs to be some reward for players who invest a lot of time playing. E-peen for a fuckton of cash, sure, but what's the point of stashing money if you can't use it for anything more interesting than a sniper rifle? I have maybe 6k on one server, not counting stashed loot that prolly brings it up to about 10k. What are you supposed to use that for? Do you think you could come up with something, something expensive, that would increase your chances of survival and not be abusable? Like, something that reduces damage from zombies/makes rogues less hostile/chance that a killing blow from an npc is ignored?
I just feel that right now, if you just invest two hours of play-time you're done. Then you get bored. I usually quit the server when I get bored, but others minge.
Also, why are there so many caches around spawn? Shouldn't brave explorers be rewarded for their attempts by uncovering great treasures? Speaking of, what if some caches, the ones farthest away from spawn, could spawn some really valuable items? Long time between respawn of course. Maybe these items could be these potent survivability items i spoke of above? Or maybe parts, so that you would have to spend a lot of time searching for them and stack a lot of items before you get a reward. Integrate crafting? Crafting's always fun :q:

awww :'(

Looking forward to the new good stuff though!
-
I'm slowly finishing a new version of apocalypse for the mode, give more edicts to the server
Still need to add more static props here and there to make the map more interesting without raising the edicts
Green is the new color of the skybox without color correction instead of the pink, I need to redo most of the color correction day/night system to work with the green
-
That could be easy... Add in a few If statements to check the distance between all 3 factions, and code up some sort of algorithm to either spawn more items... or a certain group of items.
