  1. FlowerpotGun.zip


    Are you tired of drab environments? Do you long for a glimpse of home? The answer has arrived! A portable flowerpot gun to brighten up any combat zone!

    Unzip FlowepotGun.zip to your base RenegadeX directory. This should put the files where they need to go. If not, the *.upk file goes in UDKGame\CookedPC\RenX\Weapons, the *.u file goes in UDKGame\CookedPC, and the example *.bat file goes in the base directory.

    When the mutator is loaded, (the example *.bat will load this mutator in Skirmish mode on Field) hit F5 or ~ to bring up the console and type, without the quotes, "mutate FlowerpotGun". This will add one flowerpot gun to your inventory - it will not replace any weapons you already have.

    This weapon has a primary fire and a secondary fire - try them both.

    Known bugs/issues:

    1. Flowerpots don't land perpendicular to surfaces at too steep an angle.

    2. Flowerpots don't move with vehicle turret rotation.

    3. When aiming near vertical, the weapon has no spread.

    NEW AS OF 2019.02.02:

    4. Some animations are missing.

    5. The flowerpots can inflict damage upon their owner when they explode.

    6. No HUD indicators show over units/structures when using the weapon.

    7. The weapon is supposed to use two rounds on secondary fire, but it can still be fired with only one round in the magazine. (For reference only; this may not be fixed. This behavior is also present in the standard Flak cannon on secondary fire.)

    Thanks to Try-Out, Silent-Knight, limsup, and Reivax for helping me test this and reporting some bugs I was not aware of.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------

    Remember: PEACE! THROUGH! FLOWERS!

    Many thanks to those who helped me get this working, especially @Sarah..

  2. Quite simply what the title says. The launcher was not showing on the taskbar, but the process was still running, and consuming 30% of my processor time (or whatever the processor statistic is in Task Manager) and 30 MB of memory. I realize that the launcher isn't in great shape to start with; I just thought I'd report this anyway.

    Thanks,

    HIHIHI

  3. Hm... The mine fire would probably stay out IF you got it to cool down. I think.

    The gas fire... I would just leave it alone, really. One: it's pretty cool. Two: if you put it out, you'd just have all that gas in the atmosphere, which might be unhealthy. And since some of it would probably stay concentrated in the pit, if there was ever a little spark, or a lightning storm, or anything like that, it would probably go BOOOOOM!

    Interesting thoughts.

  4. Yeah, you DO NOT want to make EA mad. RenX must be kept alive.

    [F1]: buy EA. Now Totem Arts makes the rules.

    [F2]: if for some incomprehensible reason Totem Arts does not have enough money to buy EA, kidnap the CEO (anonymously, of course, so nobody would guess it was TA) and set the ransom at full freedom for Totem Arts to do whatever they like.

    It's really a shame that Totem Arts is in the position they are. Maybe someday EA will send an email saying, "Go ahead and make money, have fun!" but probably not. : (

  5. I, along with Nexus and Reivax, have discovered a bug. Nexus and Reivax were using their translated versions, and when they said "Attack that vehicle" while pointing at a vehicle, it would show up on MY screen with the vehicle name in French. Obviously, this would make it harder for new players to learn, especially with more versions, because they will see all the different languages at once. Screenshots follow.

  6. I was just wondering, does anybody here other than me use RPN (or RPL*) calculators?

    For those who don't know about RPN, it is a method of expressing mathematical statements without needing parentheses, and it is quite handy as an input method on a calculator. Instead of pressing two numbers with an operator between them and then the equals key, you enter the two numbers (separated by ENTER) and then the operator. Ever since I learned RPN, I have vastly preferred RPN calculators it to normal calculators.

    If you use calculators a lot and haven't heard of RPN, look it up. If it clicks with you, and you can find a good RPN calculator, I'm sure you will be very pleased.

    HIHIHI

    *RPL is a programming language that can be used like RPL, but is more powerful.

  7. So, I am thinking of writing a mutator that will allow vehicle drivers to hand over control of the turret to a passenger in the second seat, as I think this could make for more fluid tank battles.

    I am thinking that the way to go about this would be to have a state to be in when the driver is in control and a state to be in when the passenger is in control (Or maybe just a bool and an IF statement?), switching between them at the driver's discretion. Then in whatever state the vehicle is in, it will call the function/functions required for turning the turret and firing the weapon for the proper player. Each seat would have a weapon of the same class, but the occupant would only be able to control it when the state (or bool) is right.

    Basically what I need to know (I think) is this: what function/functions are used to control weapon firing and turret rotation? Or at least, which class are they in? I've looked around, but I'm really not sure which functions are doing these things, especially turret rotation. I have a feeling it's GetWeaponAimWithOptionalPredefinedAimPoint(UTVehicleWeapon VWeapon, vector AimPoint), in Rx_Vehicle, but I'm not sure.

    Thanks,

    It's in. [The team silo icon] It uses the Refinery Icon because yeah it's sort of a smaller variant of a Refinery

    I saw today that there is only one icon with the Ref on it, which shows the health of the silo. The health of the ref cannot be seen by pressing tab. The two screenshots below were taken one after the other.

  9. Here are a few screenshots Try-Out asked me to post.

    1. The lights at the back of the Hon are still not fixed, at least for me. This is on Intel HD Graphics 520 (but last time I saw them was on an Nvidia 1050ti.)

    2. There is a spot near the Nod Refinery that has an invisible collision. As far as I can tell, it did not affect my character, but it did affect this Bradley. As you can see, it exists on both the Day and Night versions.

    Spoiler

    3. None of the stumps at the front of Nod's base have collision.

    When will "Renegade X: The Card Game" be released? =D

    That could be an interesting game. Of course, there would have to be a computer version, because you probably can't get too many RenX players in one place to play it. : )

    @Madkill40 Nice cards! I can tell some are made from screenshots, but are some (Like Boxes' Doza) made completely from scratch? Either way, very amazing work.

    HIHIHI

  11. I would have been piR2 in RenX as well, except that before I started playing RenX online, I was trying to set up a LAN server for me and my cousin to play, and I just typed in HIHIHI because I was tired of playerxxx. I made my name piR2 (after the area of a circle equation) when I started playing MOHA, but never got around to changing my HIHIHI to piR2 here when I started playing RenX online. : )

    I am also a member of the (C/D)- clan on MOHA. It currently has one member, myself. : ) All are welcome to join here or there simply by using the clan tag, the use of which is the only benefit. (Offer void where prohibited)

  12. What the title says. Do you have other names in other games, and want to see if you know someone there and here but don't know its the same person?

    Does anyone here play MOHA (Medal of Honor: Airborne)? I kind of doubt it, but it's possible. In case anyone does play MOHA, I'm piR2 there.
