Post by Gadavre »

I look for a mutator capable to add trace from Bullets for standard sniper arena of the game . Would be to know coolly location of campers on big maps!!Whether there is such mutator in the world?
Please, if such Mutator isn't present, somebody make it! It is very necessary for Players.

Sounds like he wants to see the snipers projectile flying, or the trace of its bullets like planes draw them to sky.

Yes, the trace of its bullets like planes drow to the sky (Only the thin for the best visibility of enemies)
For Instance, such Trace in game Sauerbraten:

or the trace which we see when we shoot from minigun (This Trace are called Minitrace (botpack.minitrace).
Sniper arena is excellent mutator, But if we could add to it various traces from bullets, it would be coolly. :rock:

@Gadavre - Are you looking for something like this? This is the sniper rifle I am working on for my new weapons mutator, but it has bullet tracers similar to the minigun's tracers .. http://heavenandhell.site.nfoservers.co ... rRifle.zip

Yes, Yes, Thank you! You can add the sniper arena to the jour Mutator?
Could you make hardcore Sniper Arena? I imagine such Features:
1. One Shot - one kill. Bot kills another Player with two shots. It cant do Headshot. The Player can kill Bot with one Shot.
For equal, fair duel player with bot to increase damage. Disable messages"Headshot".
2. On this Arena there are only SniperRifles. Sniper rifles are necessary for normal bots navigation.
3. in one sniper rifle, for instance, only 8-10 Bullets. Maxammo 40 or 50 Bullets (for hardcore game! :wink: ).The less the player ammo, the more he will be forced to move.
I'm ready to test your Mutator in the game with bots!

As far as I know, no one has maked such a professional Mutator.

I guess the best way though if you only want to add tracers is to add a heavily modified shock beam projectile alongside the bullet shots. You can't use a spawnnotify event on bullets so it will need to be embedded into the gun itself

Modified that it would be:
- lower drawscale (will give thinner beam)
- different skin/texture (I'm not sure what you'd choose here or if you'd make a new one)
- longer lifespan (this will stop the instant fade-out as the normal beam travels)
- not do any damage or momentum transfer
- not have any hit animation or hit decal
