KeyCat 131 Posted August 25, 2003 Realistic explosion MOD - MP test to BETA 1.92 Great! Hopes Jotte is available tomorrow for a test  Will let you know how it goes in multiplayer (if some other ppl doesn't tries it first)... /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeyCat 131 Posted August 26, 2003 Nice work Goldmember! Just tried the new GMR_explomod_MPtest_to_BETA192.zip with Jotte and I'm happy to say that the new version works in multiplayer Only thing we noticed was that it could be different results on each client (i.e an object could have burning flames on one client but not on the other) but I assume thats since the random part of the scripts runs local on each client and thus the result and it's a minor thing I can live with At least now all (server and clients) gets the nice improved explosions on impact etc. and it looks really nice. Haven't tried on a dedicated server yet but I assume it will work on that as well... Really looking forward to an updated MP compatible version of this great addon! /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) PS: Any idea what causes the problems with the JAM addon?

goldmember 0 Posted August 27, 2003 This is great news, but dedicated server test need too. And what about lag? One or two days a finished MP version to all types and build a new feature: secondary ammo explosions for armored vehicles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The mission we tested with yesterday was just a simple testmission with only two players but in that none of us could notice any lag issues due to the explosions. Maybe someone else tested with a regular/bigger mission? Quote[/b] ]One or two days a finished MP version to all types and build a new feature: secondary ammo explosions for armored vehicles.

KeyCat 131 Posted August 27, 2003 Worked on a dedicated server as well Can't really comment on lag yet... Must play some more missions with it and without it to really compare. But the one we played tonight was fully playable and there are quite a few things going on there so it looks OK so far. BTW, someone knows if it's possible to use "-mod" switch on the dedicated server? /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
malick 0 Posted August 28, 2003 Hi ! Hey, Goldmember, did Pitviper give you DynRange cpp, since 1.92b has been released ? Or will he wait till 1.92 final ? Hope he will, cause I now run GMR1.32 middle, and to cope with the lack of new sounds that were provided by DynRange, I reinstalled Battlesounds1.1 by I-forgot-his-name. But I was really fond of DR BTW, I didn't have time to check, did you correct the little problem some of us had with the laser designator ? Effective in 1.32 ? Thanks mate, I really appreciate what you did! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tykäri 0 Posted August 28, 2003 Very nice mod, goldmember! A noobish question: is it any way possible to make this work with the FDF mod? FDF doens't have its own config.bin, but all the other files in finmod/bin folder are modified, I reckon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted August 28, 2003 FDF doens't have its own config.bin That's technically true. However, it does have its own config.cpp file, which is simply an unpacked config.bin file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SilverBullet 0 Posted August 28, 2003 Wow... Great work Goldmember! I really like secondary explosions. Is it possible to make them give off debris and light flashes? Also is it possible to have the fire effect be delayed sometimes? So you could destroy a tank and just have it smoke for about a minute (fire inside) then have it burst into flames.

munger 25 Posted August 28, 2003 I reinstalled Battlesounds1.1 by I-forgot-his-name. Howdy. Hmm, this explosion mod is getting better and better. In fact, the amount of stuff it's changing for the better is increasing with every release. Great work Goldmember. Was just wondering if anyone realised that the Enhanced Config project had actually released a work-in-progress version of the mod? It's over at OFPEC here, but unfortunately I get the Forbidden message when trying to download it. What interested me the most was that there's an open source version available. Since part of the project includes Dynamic Range, perhaps this open source config includes PV's accurate DR config? What I would love to see is the Enhanced Config and the Realistic Explosion mod combined into one. That would be sweet. *drool* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You really did not seen debrises? But 10 pieces - smallest one - must fly atfer detonation. Burning delay is nice idea, how was not come to mind earlier. You really did not seen debrises?

KeyCat 131 Posted August 28, 2003 Quote[/b] ]Realistic explosion MOD Â v1.4 Thanks for the update Goldmember! While testing on the dedicated server yesterday (and again today) we did have one mission where the Realistic explosion MOD caused problems in multiplayer, clients that used it got an CTD when the tanks start to fire on each other. I don't know if this applies to this mission only since the Realistic explosion MOD 1.4 Beta and 1.4 works fine in the other MP missions we tried so far, however in this particular mission there are lots of armoured units. The mission is available here if you or someone else wanna try it. http://keycat.no-ip.com/files/testmission.zip Seems to work fine in SP (or in the editor) but not in MP using Realistic explosion MOD. Happens both with the beta version you released a few days ago and the new 1.4 version.

malick 0 Posted August 29, 2003 If we get it that will be after 1.92 final released, I think.BTW, I don't remember what was the problem about laser designator? Help me! OK, that's what I thought in the first time. But I had to try, too optimistic by nature! So we'll have to wait for final version of 1.92. Shouldn't be that long, hmm ? Let me think about this Laser problem... I don't know if your mod was the only one responsible for it, though In fact, the problem is simple: for a time, machine gunners in west squads had no M60, but could still fire, and Laser designator had a problem, for they could'nt designate a single target (as soon as I had the designator in hand, the soldier couldn't stop spinning on himself, weird). I discussed it in another thread, which I'm too lazy to point to right now Maybe I'll edit some time or another. Oh, you did a 1.4, too bad, I can't even download Not even try it :cry: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
