How to use mutators

[Kirby550]

Hi I am enjoying the experience so far. I recently found this mutator could Big Head and other mutator such as deck mutator i tried to use them but it hasn't work does anyone know how to properly use a mutator without issue.

There should be a server.bat file in the root folder of your Renegade X installation. You can right-click on it and say edit, then remove "server" from the command line if you want to start a skirmish.

start Binaries\Win32\UDK.exe CNC-Field?mutator=RenX_ExampleMutators.InfiniteAmmo,RenX_ExampleMutators.SuddenDeath

You can change the "Win32" to "Win64" to use the x64 binary; you can change CNC-Field to another map name to play that map (Look in UDKGame\CookedPC\Maps\RenX to find the right name if you don't know it.). You specify mutators by the "mutator=[Package].[Mutator]. You can add more mutators in the same package by separating them with commas, like in the example above with InfiniteAmmo and SuddenDeath. If they're in different packages, you will need to add the package name as well.

Hope this helped! If there's anything I missed, someone else should be able to see it. I'm pretty new to them myself. : )

Thank you for your help. I will let you know if it worked.

In the file description it says what the package and file name is.

Add ?Mutator=Rx_Mutator_BigHead.Rx_Mutator_BigHead to your server startup line.

Well I tried but it says your connection to the host has been lost

By the way I couldn't find the bat file anywhere

Well, if you do not have a *.bat file in your root RenX folder, you can put this one there (it will probably be C:\Program Files (x86)\Renegade X) and try it. It works for me.

BigHead_Field.bat

The game does not come with a bat file to start a server. You have to create your own. Follow the guide on the wiki.

@echo off
cd /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\Renegade X\Binaries\Win32"

start UDK.exe CNC-Walls_Flying?mutator=Rx_ExampleMutator.Rx_ExampleMutator

 

@echo off
cd /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\Renegade X\Binaries\Win32"

start UDK.exe server CNC-Walls_Flying?AdminPassword=123?maxplayers=64?mutator=Rx_ExampleMutator.Rx_ExampleMutator -port=7777

Here are two examples of bat files, depending on if you want a server or a skirmish mode game.

Whoops. I made mine a while ago and forgot that it didn't come by default. Sorry for misleading you, Kirby.

Thank you for your help can't wait to see how the game would be with mutators.

Another question what if you want to use another mutator as I want to use the deck mutator as well.

Find the download for it and use it though you or I would have to decompile it to find the class name to use.

I wish I had time and skill for unreal scripting and decompiling it seems it would take too long and I don't even know how to code.

Not really, but if you need I can just do it for you, lol. To use the decompiler, just open file and look for a class name.

[Kirby550]

That would be great since I don't have time on my hands.
