Hardwar: TACTICS v2007

[BladeRunner]

Hardwar:TACTICS v2007
<is> a mod, but more than that, it is a front end customisation application, designed to allow
for unlimited addition of new weapons by many authors with the option to put various
different types of weapons in unconventional weapon slots.

For those who are new to Hardwar, here is a quote from ModsDB:
Hardwar: Tactics
Probably the most contriversial Soldat mod ever created, Hardwar: Tactics features over 100 weapons
and an installer. Each weapon has its own statistics and descriptions, and most weapons can be placed in
more than one slot. (i.e., placing semi-auto rifles in the pistol slot, heavy machine guns in the assault rilfe slot)

Where does the contriversy come from? BladeRunner created the weapons by scaling down images of the
real guns, creating unique graphics. Most Soldat weapons are sprites, so other modders got mad.

I have re-packaged Tactics and inclued about 30 or so new weapons I have been working on (between doing other things.)
More importantly, I have designed a new feature that directly affects ALL the final bullet damages and speeds in the whole game.

In the menu system you can set your "War" to 5 different scales:
Real Hardwar
Professional
Weekend Warrior
Piss Weak
Girly-Man

heres a pic:



ALSO! at the download site you can get your hands on MJ12[KingRaptor]'s Mod for
Hardwar:Tactics - Advanced Tactical Warfare V2.5!!!
He has modified most of the original Hardwar:TACTICS weapon interface and game graphics to his liking and added a S#!T load more weapons to the collection!!!



Here's the download site for it:
http://www.savefile.com/projects/985062
-a help file is included in the download, so you will be able to port or make your own weapons and include them into the growing collaboration!


If you have a Hardwar compatible weapons collection you would like to add to the fray, email me at:
bl-ad-eru-nn-er@in-bo-x.co-m (take out the -'s) and I will add it to the available downloads!

Enjoy the [Hard]war, you bunch of soldats!

[rumpel]

looks nice, i edit after testing
but... wrong section?^^

edit:// k cant use the mod.. it always so path not found -.-

[TheOwnage]

Holy...
...Shit
Really nice, but i'm too lazy to download it...

[Clawbug]

Hmm. Said path not found, but started working after re-installation. Nice work.

[rumpel]

always path no found

[BladeRunner]

All the files should have been installed into a folder called "Hardwar Tactics" into your SOLDAT folder!
The main application should be sitting in the SOLDAT folder, along with the "Config.HWK" file (this file tells Hardwar: TACTICS application where to source its graphics and data from)

You MUST set up the Config.HWK file at the start of the FIRST launch, and then just confirm it every other time.
If this (above) is not done, then it will not work.

Please see the included help-file in the "HARDWAR TACTICS" folder!  this will walk you through all the basics of installation and addition of weapons!

Cheers!
-also note that the MJ12 mod changes the weapon damage and speed specs DOWN, so please at least TRY Hardwar:TACTICS in its ORIGINAL form BEFORE updating it with his mod!!!

-Rumpel, please post a screen shot, so I can see "when" the problem occurs for you.

Looks like a great app, will have to try it sometime.

Its a better version of your app . Cuz you are using .net.

[rumpel]

hmmm ...how i can use the martial-arts, wwf ?

[Rook_PL]

"We are currently upgrading our service to make uploads smoother.
Please get back in a hour!
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause." So I can't download it now. In the meantime, can I ask for some in-game screens?

@low: thanks.

[xtishereb]

I got a mirror up on Mod DB. Check it out here.
Also, this works a in mod folder with hacking, for those of you who are curious.

Rook_PL, for screen shots, check out my Hardwar:TACTICS homepage at: http://au.geocities.com/hardwarweaponskit/index.html

Rumpel, the martial arts and others are simply different fist damage levels that I relabelled for a laugh....
... Actually, yes you can use martial arts!  -use these key presses:

L,L,D,R,J,R,U,U,D,L,D,R,R,U,D,U,L,FIRE

-This lets you do a spinning back reverse axe hand roundhouse knife thrust crane kick that will devistate your enemy!
...or you could just shoot em! 

Xtishereb, PLEASE update your downloads on ModDB to include the MJ12 fix!
MJ12's ATW 2.5 mod does not list the newer weapons in Hardwar:TACTICS unless this fix is run after his mod.

EDIT:
Here is another pic showing some of the features:

(I hope that clarifies some stuff)
:END EDIT

[Rook_PL]

You did nice piece of work, I appreciate it, but I didn't like it. weapons are too large or small, usually with same sounds, and they are very similar to each other in game. I'll stay with Mecha, Evolved and Heretic.

Well actually the programs are quite different.  I don't see gostek, skin, taunt and profile editors.  The only thing that this has over mine is that it can alter weapons individually, which I didn't plan on adding to my program.

[silverwolf]

ahhh....yes i remember hardwar tatics, it was 1 of my favourite mods, "how do u do programming?, See anything that has microsoft and put ur name on it" or somthing

Date Posted: March 03, 2007, 06:58:38 PMomg it dosent work, it come out with a error message saying "unexpected end of archive" or something

[MofoNofo]

Ah, I remember you! Ahaha you're always so serious about your mod, makes me laugh

[tER]
