Title: My Omaha Mod
Post by: Cobra {sfx} on May 24, 2004, 06:19:38 PM
Ive just spent a day or so modding omaha, it is now Team Death Match, with no objective except to kill your enemy :)

   

   Oh - did i mention you get to fly on the planes and parachute out? hehe.

   Ok the quick rundown bit...

   

   The barbed wire on the shingle bank has been removed, the bangalores are still there but arent working now so its straight into combat. The spawns that were on the  other side of the barbed wire are enabled straight away  :)

   

   Ive tried to make it well balanced, fair and most of all fun. I think the scores are close :)  ( pic a )

   

   pic a:

   

   

   

   Allies can fly in a P47-ThunderBolt  (pic b),  or if theyre lucky enough, they will spawn or walk into the Paratroopers plane spawn (pic c) and parachute over enemy territory from the C47-Dakota Paratroopers Plane.

   The Plane can currently hold 4 paratroopers :)

   

   The Eastern Most Higgins Boat Has The C47-Dakota`s  Paratrooper trigger and currently it triggers every 2mins 25seconds.

   

   I did it this way so to allow people to get off the boat (if they didnt want to parachute in)and to minimise lag, so far its handling it well, i may add another Axis aircraft - the Fock Wolf 190, and possibly a tiger tank on the top bank.

   

   Some of the trigger times may change like the Paratroopers plane-may bring it to every 1 min.

   

   Axis currently get to fly the Junkers Ju87-Stuka. (pic b)

   By the way - You can also "steal" each others aircraft if you get the chance to. ;)

   

   

   pic b:

   

   

   

   pic c :

   

   

   

   Pic d shows the last plane ive added, the Focke Wolf 190, seen here flying past the Panzer Tank.

   

   

   pic d:

   

   

   

   

   While pic e shows the Tiger Tank ive placed on the minefield bank.

   

   pic e

   

   

   Omaha Update....

   

   Ive now added some background effects in, youll notice over a period of time 4 different Aircraft flying a pre-determined route, some have smoke coming from them, 2 have crash paths with a small explosion. Just some special fx i threw together for the Battlefield Atmosphere :)

   pics below...

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   To me it now has one hell of an atmosphere, and looks a lot more like a warzone.  (The way it should be.)

   

   

   Oh - the Naval Artillery now targets both sides to even things up ;)

   

   The Panzer and Tiger tanks alternate their firing, one fires for a while, then the other takes over firing, i have made an overlap so they fire together for 20 seconds or so to make it more authentic :)

   

   

   

   This mod is running on the mods-r-us server (80.168.15.19:12203)

   please leave any comments should you feel the need to do so :)

Actually that is fully functional, im still going to add to it and monitor lag tho.

   

   I cant release it yet as i make mods for the Mods-r-us server so my task is to get as many people as possible onto Vics server, after all he pays for it himself.

   

   I aim to release a mod for every stock map, but as yet most of my time is at work or modding/tweaking/learning/family stuff /etc etc.

   

   Once were happy with all the stock map mods i reckon well have more time for the public mod  (couple of maps still to tackle yet)

   

   For Mods-r-us

Aww shucks guys ;)

   

   Omaha needed livening up a little, looks more like it should now and axis have to work some more too, ive been watching it and the scores are pretty even :)

   

   Ive added 2 tanks that take turns firing ( 1 fires for a 125 seconds  then the other takes over) , cuts back on lag and targets certain positions to liven the map up :)

   

   The Fock Wulf 190 is going to get added also and a couple of kill triggers to sort the cheats :)

i think those mdos are sweet.

   maybe you can help me.

   i am trying to make a map for my clan that is not a stock map.

   i am trying to get some allies to come out of a plane and parachute down.

   the axis to come in a truck locked to their seats.

   a flax 88 firing at the other allies

   and the allied objective to destroy the flak 88 by hearing it and coming to destroy it.

   this is supposed to be a training obj. map and i cant figure A LOT out on how to do this.  i figured you were the one to ask seeing as you are the master. :love

The Omaha modification is great! I was thinking..It is very hard to actually hit somebody from the plane. I always get the B.A.R or Stg44 and get into a plane and start shooting at the Axis but I only ever seem to be able to kill people with grenades that I drop from the plane.

   

   So...is there any possibility of adding a machine gun to the planes? You could have the MG42 on the Axis plane and the Allied plane with the 50. Caliber that I have seen on Single Player and some custom maps (Like that one with the moving boats, I can't remember the name, it is a Spearhead/Breakthrough map)

   

   Anyway, if not don't worry. The mod is great.

   

   P.S Can you possibly make it so we can shoot the buggers from the sky? Ty :D

   

   BtW - Is that SSid ViciouSS? I doubt you'll remember me, im not Defaye but somebody who used to be in Covert ;)

Amazing mods, amazing maps, amazing server. Thanx, ive spent many an hour on it! Why is nobody on at 3am GMT?! I've just started exam leave so i got plenty of time!!

Just to prove my point above i decided to have a game on the Omaha map and jus look at the score board!

   http://www.freewebs.com/rjbriggsy/Mohaa2.jpg

   

   8)Not bad ey! Any chance i can join the {sfx} team? I agree to all the rules.

Elgan {sfx} has joined our team, hes been actively making mods and ideas for us to use, and has some great mods hes made himself.

   

   Im not sure what joining {sfx} quite involves yet, modders are definately needed to help bring on the mods more and create new ideas, i think we need a live forum here also, altho we are usually on TS2.

   

   At the moment you cant shoot pilots until they bale out as most maps have invisible walls that would crush the player (not to mention the minefields you fly over-giving a kind of flak effect as they explode behind you), so i had to make the plane and player notsolid until they bale out at a safe height away from anything invisible.

   

   I could give people the carryable mg42 to use but weve found its pretty buggy - we used it on Remagen for a while but found once a player died he could still carry on firing the gun on the floor.

   

   Flak to add yet, Elgan {sfx} has been making some Proximity Mines which work pretty well, we could add these as bombs to drop, or even use proper bombs - the ideas now are limitless :)

   

   Another idea is to use multiple splinepaths so the aircraft can vary their pattern - so much we can do its gonna be fun :)

   

   Stay Tuned

*** NEWSFLASH ***

   

   Currently on the server you will find the Focke Wolf 190 can now be shot down, the pilot can eject, and it can drop bombs, to use the functions ...

   

   E (use) will drop a bomb (you have 3)

   E (use) And Fire will eject you from the Aircraft

   

   Plane takes damage and explodes/kills the player.

   (Thats the plane in Pic D above and you get it from below where you see it - at the bottom of the bank)

   

   

   Update...

   

   Plane is soon to be steerable - yes you fly it yourself!!

   (This version not yet on server) - Developing with Elgan {sfx}

   

   Stay Tuned :)

Wow, weve achieved a hell of a lot in such a short time ... the story so far...

   

   stage1.

   I managed to get players glued into planes and flying around the map, i handed this over to Vic to mess with as he wanted to do a plane mod but having a busy lifestyle that he has, he didnt get time to do it so i re-took the planes over and made the Omaha mod.

   

   stage2.

   Elgan joined and was making proximity mines etc and got interested in the planes, at the time he was messing around with a player steering a boat around then i said - whoaaa - sod the boats give me the controls in the Aircraft, so i gave him one of my Aircraft to have a go with, he returned with the Aircraft having full flight controls - an amazing job in such a short time - well done m8!!!

   

   stage 3.

   Youve no doubt flown in them on the server now and were currently looking at enhancing the Aircrafts controls, another idea was to use the old splinepath type Aircraft (the first ones you probably flew in that i made) as Drones - or targets for the player flyable type to attack - youll see on our main page Elgan attacking a C47 Drone that i scripted in so stay tuned for stage 4 :)

Wow this is an old post m8 - we released the flyable planes (its in the mod-files section on page 2) called sfx flyable planes and custom map. Thats as far as we got releasing them, we still havent fully used their potential on the server yet (which we are now doing via a full revamp).
