Hi there,

i got a question to the devs:

Is it possible to add 2 kinds of rocketthrowers?

I got a panzerfaust ingame but the panzerschreck isn't spawning at all.

What to do?


It's not possible. The secondary weapon support is still a bit incomplete in that sense, it will only get better.

Currently, the other way to have rocket launchers is to make a primary weapon shoot out rockets, but collecting the rocket launchers becomes a bit tricky then. You may need to resort to having a reloadable launcher, which might not be what you want.

Hey there!

Was off for about three releases xD

I looked at the new file-distribution and stuff and adapted my mod.

Things i've done:
Added a new folder with all my edited textures, maps
Edited my map with the new map_config.xml telling it to load my two new factions. ( RedArmy and Germany )
Edited my weaponsfolder with single files of every of my 35 weapons. (Oh my...)
Added the projectile_speed to every weapon! (Oh my²)
Added a new "all_weapons.xml" loadout-file called "Whole_Stuff.xml" (Working Title)
Loaded the map and got one problem:
I crashes and the log tells me it failed loading assault_rifle1. This makes no sense to me. It should load a whole different loadout without assault_rifle one.

Things to know:
I readded the apc_gun
I added apc's to my map for testing

Also:
Can anyone upload a apc-texture which shows the parts of the apc so i can texture it properly?

Thanks in advance as always!

P.S.: I saw we can add different skins. So i'll add 10 skins for germany and 10 for the red army as soon as my problems get solved. Woohoo!

I could send you the source gimp file if you want.

Good to have you back, Petrenko :)

Do you have the new package somewhere so that I can take a look at the assault_rifle1 issue? One way that can happen is that one of the weapons doesn't have <model filename="thompson.xml" /> -tag defined at all, but I'd still expect it to not crash as assault_rifle1.xml can be found in the resource path.

You might want to run the game with parameter "verbose", you'd get some extra traces in the log.

Helas,

i'll upload the modfiles tommorrow when i'm back home. Xmas and stuff really annoys me!

Also if anyone want to participate im making the mod, i'd be very thankful. Since i don't got enough time and might want to start another project. Maybe making a real vietnam mod with updated textures, jungle-themed map etc. . But first i need to get the mp40s running and have at least a decent looking tank and jeep for each faction!

Ok, think I got something.

One thing I didn't realize to mention is that nowadays files should be referenced without path, e.g. model xml-files inside weapon specification files just with the filename. This practically enables applying overlay mods as intended.

E.g. in mp40s\weapons\BAR.xml:
Code:
    <model filename="media\models\bar.xml" />
--> change to
    <model filename="bar.xml" />


Once these are fixed (I fixed only the first four of them to test), there's another issue. As folders don't have any meaning once the files end up in the resource management system, unintentional name clashes might happen, so watch out for that. It seems that Ogre's resource system is case insensitive, or at least I have it that way in RWR, so weapons\BAR.xml may actually end up overlaying (overriding) models\bar.xml, and the loader goes berserk finding a weapon specification file when it was trying to find a model file, or vice versa.

To fix it, I'd suggest you to change the .xml extension in all files in weapons\ to .weapon, and update whole_stuff.xml contents accordingly. Changing the voxel model -xml extension doesn't seem to be an option right now, I've got a check for it in the code, although it shouldn't really be needed.

Petrenko, could you upload the file to another site? Because I am in a country that cannot download from Gamefront.

Traited Revolution:

What it's about:
The Soviet Union is about to get revisioned by Gorbatshov, but most of the population don't want to betray Stalin and the Revolution. This is why they rise.

What you get:
- 2 new Factions (Resistance[with 4 Skins] , Army[with 10 Skins])
- 7 new Weapons (AK47, AK74, PKM, Bizon, Dragunov, RPG7, F1 Grenade)
- 1 new Map (Birsk - SwampDatchas)
- a bit of a new Hud

Everything is still WIP and new Skins, Maps, and Weapons are likely to come!

Installation:
Delete the /Package Folder within your /Media Folder
Unpack the /Media Folder of the .7z and Overwrite
Be sure to make backups
Also change mapsettings to start with Birsk as map!
