Enhanced Weapons for UT99

Post by heliumcat »

Not saying that the default weapons of UT99 look and/or act bad or lack power, but is there actually already such a thing around as Enhanced Weapons for UT99?

Perhaps such thing would be useful maybe not necessarily with more modern graphics but perhaps it should make the weapons more advanced and configurable on their own?

Sort of like NW3 and AW9 but with the original UT99 weapons? Sort of like remakes or extensions of them with more functionality and maybe a bit more power to compete with the other famous weapon mods?

Just giving ideas.

Well there was once a project (CMP3) where the people wanted to update the Weapons and Pickups visually (maybe performance vise too).
But this project was canceled as like others.

I have been working on improving the default weapons for my DM server. Haven't got very far yet but I was given permission to use Wormbos 2k3/2k4 code for the redeemer. That and the sniper rifle have been done. I enhanced the default skins to a higher resolution. I might actually recreate the skins from scratch with more detail.

I have no idea when I will have a release but will upload it here as soon as its finished.

Well there's a mod called Excessive Overkill, which makes weapons excessively overpowered.. Rocket launcher shoots really fast, ripper bounces people around like crazy, minigun has explosive bullets, shock combos can be chained.. It's fun stuff but you can't really call it "enhanced".

Well, making the weapons configurable isn't hard. All you need to do is check the variables of the weapon and make them configurable via .ini, you can even add a Mod Menu for that and there you can change Damage, Momentum, Ammo Capacity, Projectile Speed and whatever you want.
Then for visuals all you need is new Textures and change the defaults via MultiSkins.
I don't know if there is something like this but it can be done without that much work.
You cannot kill what is already dead.

My basic choice of boost for the standard weapons is Wormbos Enhanced Items and Chaos 1.1

Description:
In this mutator I included all my previous mutators in one, totally
configurable from the mod menu and so much fun to play. The mutators
included are: both Damage mutator, Push Away mutator and DeathMatch
Plus mutator. The first ones modified the damage inflicted in the
game, now your weapons can be 100 times weaker or 10 times stronger,
which is enough because in this rating all your weapons will be instant
killers. The second mutator will make you fly away every time you get
hit. If you choose the higher value for this mutator, every someone hits
you, you´ll be thrown away up to 200 ft. Finally the last mutator
will take you one frag every time you die, so you´d better be careful.
The combination of this mutators could be really funny.
