hey folks,

I wanted to do a last tribute to duke3d and re-upload dukearmy. Short description
of my TC:

--------------------------------------------
A TC that changes Duke Nukem 3D into an exaggerated army-style
shooter with various multiplayer additions (CTF, Hill Defend, Assault).
Main focus is multi-player (though 1 playable single-player episode is included)
and the massive unrealistic use of gore elements to turn the TC in
kind of a "splatter game".
--------------------------------------------

The TC was made for an older eduke32 version, and several elements will not work with the newest snapshot (I guess terminX "fixed" the bug that no events are triggered anymore if you use an item which you dont own, for example holoduke) and I included
in my archive an older version which works fine.

Installation: all what you have to do is extract the archive, copy your duke3d.grp (version 1.5) in the main folder where
the execute ables are located and start "dukearmy.bat". Have fun playing it

oh and before asking that question: you should take a look at key bindings before asking "how to activate this and that bla bla".
It should be self explaining how to set alternate fire and so on.

Hey Kenia I reckon you should make a simple website or something or see if you can get that Duke Army file hosted here. (and the site if you bother with one)

WHY?
Because last time you uploaded the final version and said about it on 3DR, about 2/3 months later your thread started filling up about people who said they couldn't get the file any more. (as it had been deleted from the site you had uploaded it to)

I think it was due to my wide screen resolution, but half of the bar sinks, also I can't do sizeup sizedown since it keeps sizing it back.

hmm i dont know if its a bug of duke army or one of that specific eduke32 version. If I have time i will rework dukearmy little bit to make it runable with newest eduke (polymere render ) and keep wide screen in mind.

oh, and thanks for review / upload

[kenia]

I guess its worth to rework the TC, I could do so much more with polymer.

Don't bump dead topics.

Oh wait...

[Master Fibbles]

He respawned at the end of the round.

[kenia]

hey guys, im reworking dukearmy little bit to make it playable on polymer. I got rid of con errors and the flamethrower crash, but some graphic bugs still appear. maybe someone of you can help me. Im using pngs for the smoke but i guess polymer is messing up the aplha values when light is being casted on that sprites.

Do not use PngOptimizer to convert your images to png.

The png files that are converted with PngOptimizer have problems in polymer.

I remember this was discussed a while ago in HRP topic.

I don't actually get that problem when I play your mod, so my guess is that it maybe video card related.

Let me guess, the flamethrower problem you have was by spawning FIRE sprite in Polymer?
Polymer won't spawn that without crashing and it is rather annoying.

Ninja Edit: I am using your M-16 model in my mod, I hope that is still ok as you said months ago I could feel free to use any assets if I needed to.

[kenia]

yeh yeh, no problem, I will rip your jeep from red alert

edit: and yes, spawn FIRE was not so easy to find out, my code for the flame thrower particles is a desaster...

https://edukeredalert.svn.sourceforge.net/s.../Models/Ranger/

model "Ranger.md3"
{
scale 40.0 shade 10 zadd 0
skin { pal 0 surface 0 file "v_al_ranger0.dds" }
skin { pal 0 surface 4 file "v_al_ranger_gls.png" }
skin { pal 0 surface 5 file "v_al_rangerb.dds" }
skin { pal 0 surface 6 file "v_al_ranger2.dds" }
frame { name "(from 3DSMax)" tile 10029 }
}

You might want to make "v_al_ranger_gls.png" a black texture, as the rest of the model disapheres through it because the glass wasn't defined as the last surface, which means anything else defined after it becomes invisible if you look though it.

[kenia]

i uploaded a new version, changes:

- "spawn FIRE" caused eduke32 running
in polymer to crash - fixed
- bleedings appear more seldom
- bleeding damage limited to 5 ticks and
will stop then
- reduced chance to get a headshot from
computer controlled enemies

Is this all you are doing?
Or are you going to be working on this mod again and finishing the tactics side of things?

[kenia]

im currently not really motivated, the "tactics" part would be really big and alot of work, but who knows. when the new net code is bug free motivation comes back maybe

edit: oh, and please check if you have the same graphic bugs like me (see screenshots posts above)

[The Commander]

Yes, I do get that issue in Polymer, but not Polymost.

I guess I never tried to run it in Polymer because of the flamethrower issue causing Polymer to crash it.

May I ask if you are using that fog effect in that area? I have noticed that the fog effect likes to mess with the alpha of textures when using Polymer.

[kenia]

yes, im using fog. so its actually engine related bug and i couldnt fix it.

Yup, I looked myself and saw that you were using the PAL 26's.
Ive told Plagman about this issue (it also does wacky things with lights) so hopefully he should be able to resolve it soon.

link, Y U BROKEN?

Seriously. Can someone upload a link that works please?
