Woah :O Nice work!

[Avarax]

Skills look very innovative, fitting and also show great synergy in some cases. Didn't play it though :Q

That's high praise indeed coming from The Avarax.
I will definitely check this out one of these days.

Why thanks.

1.7.0 atm is pretty bugged. We're trying to find and fix the bugs as soon as possible. 1.7.1 will sure be alot better.

[TheWind]

Wow this looks great, im going to play it right away 

[numgun]

I really like the ideas of some spells like the slingshot, very clever.

But.

I kind of hate the fact it has accounts that keep constantly leveling up meaning newbies will have tough time to survive just like in hexer. Also the fact of being limited to 2 special weapons when making an account is kind of nasty too.

Also the idea of gaining spell power through kills is rather annoying and not quite friendly to newbies at this point either.

I'm looking forward on playing this on a public server since it sounds pretty fun.
I must say this script is no good for short games, its for more long term whacking just to get something out the nice features.

[saad786]

Nice job man I wish i could even understand how  to make a simple script. ~.~

[numgun]

Consider removing the account system and switching to something similar like Miracle Mod with a twist: Theres a similar gallery map that players visit every 'th round. Sounds too similar? read on.

Heres the catch: Everyone can choose anything they want. The map is just a show room where all the information is displayed for each weapon and its attributes. Here the user chooses his primary and secondary and he will have the powers to that weapon for the next several rounds until the next time when the players enter the gallery map.

He cannot change his special primary nor secondary during a normal round, only in the gallery map.
Note this: I mean he cannot change the special weapons that have the powers. During a match, a player can switch between any weapons on the menu, but he will only have the powers to 1 primary and 1 secondary that he chose on the gallery map.

Now as for the power usage, you can either keep going with the kills for skills method, but I heavily recommend the cooldown method like in hexer. This way you can ensure that skills/spells can be used by everyone and with cost of time to wait instead of kills. This method is also newbie friendly and makes the gameplay generally more fun.

If still would go with the kills for skills, I recommend lowering the costs of spells greatly and have the special points stack each time you kill so you can spend them on spells and so on.




Also another quick suggestion for the current system:

The /cool command.

The command /cool that works the same way as the /cool in hexer with few changes.
This is an example how it would look like when you type /cool:

Code: [Select]

//Your Spells\\
-Spell one: cost 20
-Spell two: cost 30
-Spell three: static
-Spell four: cost 70
Points available: 120

Otherwise great work on this mod, its not too fun yet and its not too quick game/newbie friendly, but I believe it can get better. Some of the spells are really amazing with the idea of funcion like tripwires and slingshots.


Also one more a quick question: Is scripting mods like these easy? Are there any tutorials for this?

[Duck Boi]

Also one more a quick question: Is scripting mods like these easy? Are there any tutorials for this?

Well, I did not create this script. But it does take quite some time to create it.

And I've read your suggestions, and they'll be taken into account .

[nuclearrambo]

I kind of hate the fact it has accounts that keep constantly leveling up meaning newbies will have tough time to survive just like in hexer. Also the fact of being limited to 2 special weapons when making an account is kind of nasty too.

THE power doest have much effect on the damage output and input of the player.

[Atredes/GfF]

Now we have second server:

Name: (WM)BLah's iMod
IP: s1.Lemonserv.com
Port: 23075
Gametype: CTF
Admins: Neosano, Hobo, Blah, Atredes
Country: Finland

Server run 1.7.1 iMod version (old accounts are still here).


Date Posted: September 08, 2008, 10:46:12 amNow our server,  soldat://88.195.57.84:23075/
IP 88.195.57.84 : Port 23075

run iMod 1.7.2 with better power's formula.
Now its easier to gain enough power to be able to use spells.
Old accounts are deleted so no more "uber-max powers pwnzzorz" who gain levels when it was really easy (now all people have same chances).

Plus, to be sure, your INPUT/OUTPUT damage don't depend on your level. It is same for all people/on different levels. Server use default weapon mod, just minigun is disabled.
