    NEED MORE PLAYERS

    in GR:AW (PC) - General Discussion

    Posted

    - ROCO,

    I'm not sure why you had a config file altered from an RvS download. Like I said, all autodownload files are loaded in the System/Cache folder. Nothing should have altered any files unless you used the RvS cache utility to copy them over into your system files. The dowload system should not allow this. Addittionally, I not 100% on this but I don't think anything but map related and .u files can be downloaded. Now unless there was a truely malicious person creating a server side mod or U-script that actually alters files on the client machine exploiting some aspect of the Unreal engine and it's scripting abilities, I haven't heard of it and I imagine I would have at PsB by now. I have however seen funny things not related to the autodownload alter config files or corrupt config files. I'm not sure but I would be more willing to bet it was caused by something else and not the download. Was anyone else you know of affected by the same download? Point me where and I'll see if I can get it figured out because if someone is expoiting the game engine in a malicious way, I want to know and take measures to notify the RvS community.

    How could we know?

    Download - new section

    in GR - General Mod Topics

    Posted

    The download section features a new section where all the materials prepared by modders for modders will be collected.

    They are not proper mods since you can't play with them but they can be used freely for your mods, remembering to give credits to the author.

    The new section is here.

    Please feel free to suggest new other stuff to include in this section or to send me more.

    Awesome, just what a lot of people need to get motivated again.

    Have a lot of mods here myself, lot`s give full permission for use. All in 1 barrel, omg. Played all the relevent games myself, time to get back to [GR].

    Hi Rocky,

    I finished HL2, really enjoyed it too!

    So all i did was install HL2 Episode 1 and every time i launched the game i was told that my video driver was out-dated. So i followed the link and downloaded the latest driver, or so i thought.

    Now each time i boot my pc up i have this message:

    hl2graphtp7.jpg

    Hope i have not messed things up here.

    Hi,

    I have a new pc, Dual Core with a NIVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS on board.

    I have been able to play all games, GR:AW, HL2, etc..I have just installed Episode 1 and was prompted with my video card needed updating and i went to the link and updated my driver. Now when i boot my pc up i am prompted with a message that i am only running on 1 card and only have 256?

    Sry if this is a tech issue, but maybe someone else had this.

    Big mission crashes when adding more.

    in GR - Mission Modding

    Posted

    when I go to open the file it freezes, saying "IGOR has caused an error in IGOR.exe", and IGOR shutsdown

    Are you sure all objects you inserted in the mission are from mods that are activated ?

    I don't know about file-size limitations, but there are actor-limitations (I thought 255 was max.)

    Hi, I have no issues at the moment, just curious as too a mission i am working on that seems to keep expanding quickly.

    Does anyone know what the file size limitation is for a mission file?

    Will the fact that not too much will ever go on at the same time help?

    Thnx

    Looking for tips!

    Have you reached Nova Prospekt? One of the most intense battles you will ever fight! Love the sound of a peeved or dying......

    How do feel bout them little critters now? hehe

    After you finish HL2, play it through with the Substance Gold Final mod, double the insanity!

    and,

    Gordon, Liquid Snake(hk 23, mini gun), Solid Snake(Famas,slammer), Big Boss(Scoped DE(?), AI - AW .50), and if ya beat that, ya get Gray Fox(Katana!, XM8)

    loads of fun, don't forget to play Lost Coast too! Official Valve single mission! pretty cool too.

    Then as Rocky can tell ya, EP1!

    Did I mention Monster House mod? More Raven Holmesque nightmares in a very tight space.

    mig :ph34r:

    Just finished the game earlier! Really enjoyed that, look forward to Episode 1.

    IDEA FOR GRAW SQUAD ORGANIZATION!

    in GR:AW (PC) - General Discussion

    Posted

    Agreed, I and several others brought this up HERE ,HERE and HERE There are several more people in those threads that posted the same thing, there were also a few posts about it on the UBI GRAW PC forums. It is a good idea, I am wanting to see anyone that is in a squad in different colors to direct traffic in games, if you want to seperate your team into 3 or 4 squads it would be nice to know where bravo and charlie are on the map, if you are in alpha. When we are all on comms together and in different squads we can't tell where each squad is, making it hard to work as one whole unit. A color change for each squad would seem to be the simplest fix, I would think. Bring on TDM, AC and Dedi Server pack first though. :)

    Hadn`t seen those links, glad to see intrest.

    Proximity Vehicle?

    in GR - Mission Modding

    Posted

    I assume the path is defined and only one so the 10 zones can be passed through only in a certain order.

    Therefore I would check the first zone and if proximity vehicle = true set a counter=1 then timerset=0 and check the second zone, if true counter=2 and so on. I hope I'm clear enough

    G

    All zones in a line yes.

    Each zone it enters increment counter.

    Driver down, query counter/redirect.

    :rofl::thumbsup:

    Thnx a lot GiWeDa, perfect.

    IDEA FOR GRAW SQUAD ORGANIZATION!

    in GR:AW (PC) - General Discussion

    Posted

    I have an idea to actually make squads USEFUL in this game.

    Make the rectangles that show up on the friendlies a different color for each squad...

    OR! Make the Non-Squad players one color, and YOUR squad ANOTHER, and like the SQUAD LEADER GOLD,or something like that?

    ACtually make squads USEFUL!!!!!

    Even if the icons could be different, like a different icon for each squad, just on the map screen?

    I hope someone figures this out, again i say it would be a great assett.

    Things that help teamwork; way points or orders, in game comms of some kind. Without communication teamwork is pretty hard to come by. and since there is no good built in way to communicate with your team it's very difficult to find a pub server that uses teamwork.

    When i host co-op, it is passworded.

    Password obtainable only by joining teamspeak.

    Now do i put TS IP in message of the day or in the GRAW server list, server name?

    Proximity Vehicle?

    in GR - Mission Modding

    Posted

    Hi,

    More interesting problems...

    If a vehicle drives down a 50M road and i have set up 10 zones covering each 5 Meters...I shoot the driver...How do i find which of the 10 zones the vehicle stopped in? There are no more occupants.

    There is redirectif proximity vehicle in Igor, which is what i was hoping for.

    Damage Effects

    in GR - Mission Modding

    Hi,

    I have a mission here were as a vehicle is set to blow if it hits a certain spot.

    I have 2 x Damage effects (Damage2(2)(2)) involved, and i get CTD when it explodes.

    Take out Damage effects and all is fine.

    I can manage without using kill any actors in 10 Meter radius but wondered if anyone knows any better damage effects for such a job?

    Thnx
