Making the engine test more playable

Jiriki

Join the hamachi network, there's usually a server.

Someone was actually working adding NS2 servers to Steam server list but apparently sockets don't work properly in the engine yet.

It should be a little higher.

Looking good though. You guys should get a more "official" thread title, I don't think people can tell that this is the main go-to mod and all the stuff it does.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That is because its running in a window with borders. We need borderless mode.

Ah man I love you guys! This in incredible, ready room, kill ratio and all. My eyes are tearing with joy being able to toy with this :D
All we need now is the board and some sound FX. walking and skulk bite thing :D

Hi jiriki,

It seems that the network is full :(

By the way, how to have 3rd person view?

Hamachi says network is full :S
I am sad we got already a "playable" game but not enough servers :`(
EDIT: for third person open the console with ~ (USA KEAYBOARD) OR ^ (GERMAN KEYBOARD)
and type: thirdperson

I'm not sure if this is due to the mod, but whenever I play online, the rifle's ammo seems to deplete way too fast. I'll post some video footage when I get a chance.

No footage from a local game, since you can clearly see how the 3rd and 4th clips go down much faster than the others :\

E2: God, what happened to the quality? Damn youtube ;\

Oh, and while that isn't so bad, it was plain awful when there were 3 players, it depleted in less than half a second.

Jiriki

You shouldn't overwrite your files, check the <a href="http://wiki.github.com/Nayruden/ns2lua/install" target="_blank">install guide</a>.

Could be useful to make a second Hamachi network, seeing as the one that's up is already full :p

Great work with this, by the way. It's really cool.

Tobii

Working on this turret to just for the lol's..

wow very impressive!

aeroripper

Looks nice, now just need a good texture. Someone should make a good "last stand" map where marines hold out with the turrets against mass skulks for a certain time.

matfra

Nice, Is there anyway you can add this turret to the gaME ?

a siege turret would be useless at the moment. a regular turret would be cheats :O!

Rutix, I think devicenull was working on the turret logic. You could probably join the #ns2devs IRC channel to ask him about it, or testing out your model.

just type 'thirdperson' again in the console :D

Mendasp

The game parameter accepts relative paths (to the game executable), so you can do "/game ns2lua" if you install it like in the guide so there's no need to put the whole path again.

Nice work but I wonder why u didn't take the original as template, then u could see how close u can be to the original with the tools ^^

But the model by Tobii looks more like a siege cannon, inspired by the NS1 model

sharkck

Whenever I type connect (Server IP) into the NS2 console it causes my internet connection to drop and come back up. Any ideas? I'd like to try this out.


Edit: Apparantly you have to use the Hamachi VPN software and get lucky and be able to connect to a free slot?

Never used it before. Makes sense tho.

sorry had to disable it people where spamming the targets
i may soon have to do it with the turret as well

as always if you would like to test those things i would suggest making your own game

thanks
