Soul Harvest
Overview
Soul Harvest is a little addition to deathmatch, in the form of a mutator. Traditionally, when you kill someone in Unreal multiplayer, you score a point for the kill. However, Soul Harvest gives you the point for the kill, but also provides an additional point if you can do what's required. It works like this: The way it works is this. When you kill someone in Soul Harvest, they die and a soul is spawned. This soul starts to slowly rise at the rate of about half a foot per second. To get an additional point for the kill, you must harvest the rising soul by simply running over the soul and picking it up. When you harvest a soul, a yellow message stating your feat will appear to all players, and everyone in the vicinity will hear a choir voice.
This type of gameplay has many advantages. It reduces the effectiveness of snipers and campers. If you are sniping at someone far away, then chances are you will not be able to reach them in time to capture their soul that is rising into the air. This mod encourages close action and tight gameplay, so that players may harvest souls after they kill their opponents.
Playing
There are three ways you can play Soul Harvest:
BotMatch: To play Soul Harvest against Unreal Tournament's bots, go to "Start Internet Game", and select "Mutators", and add "Soul Harvest" to the mutator list. Configure your bots, then click "Start".
Joining a Multiplayer Game: Open up GameSpy, and find a server with a running an Soul Harvest mutator.
Serving a Multiplayer Game: To play Soul Harvest against Unreal Tournament's bots, go to "Start Internet Game", and select "Mutators", and add "Soul Harvest" to the mutator list. Then click "Dedicated".

Re: Soul Harvest 2
I like Soul Harvest but what was changed from the previous one?
You cannot kill what is already dead.

Re: Soul Harvest 2
No idea. I guess it's just the internal revision number.
The files are named as I got them. I can't think straight anyway. I should be in bed long ago.
Don't know why I'm here. I just told Crev I was finally going to bed, then ended up here.
Maybe i'm haunted/possessed ?
I'll collect all the zombie options from my monster folder later. (some are too fast for my taste. especially in dark maps)

Re: Soul Harvest 2
Just to be truthful my tombstones mod totally ripped this idea off. It's simple and effective when the reward is good enough that it can change the entire game.
So long, and thanks for all the fish

Re: Soul Harvest 2
This is basically Kill Confirmed kind of gametype.
I made a map once where the dead player's soul would return to you. Probably still have it somewhere...

Re: Soul Harvest 2
There was once a game mode for Quake3 Arena ...I can't remember well the name ...head hunter maybe soul huinter or something like this.
For every kill you made was a glowing skull dropped whichsoever you have to collect. This skull behave like a chain and you dragged them along the map with you ...You got only the point for the kill if you could arrive safely (without getting killed) in a team base (oh I think it was team based) and you had to run through a pentagram to get the points.
Now comes the main twist ...who ever could kill you on your way back to your base, got your head and your collected skulls.
Good players who got greedy could fall easy pray to other lucky one.
Camper couldn't win this game mode... because, no skull no point.

RewardMod
Just a simple set of awards for killing people various ways. This is designed to be modular but bear in mind that awards can stack, meaning if you enable headshot bonus as well as (for example) longshot bonus then the awards will combine. You can deal with this in the ini by adjusting the awards.
The reward sections:
1) Longshot and Super Longshot
This set of awards is for distance kills. By specifying a range limit you can enable a reward for kills that exceed this. There is a long range shot with a small bonus and a super long range shot with a larger bonus. Also the award sounds can be changed in the ini file to anything you want as well as both distances and amounts of awards and also the message your clients will see when they get the awards.
Set the distance limits depending on the sniper rifle you use. I have them set very high for sniper rifles with no range limit so draw it way back if you use regular sniper.
2) Drop Weapons
This is a simple pinata-type mutator that will cause killed players to dump their weapon inventory on the ground.
3) Translucent bodies
When a player is fragged their body will become see-through. I just like this visually, especially on a crazy server with bodies falling all over. It makes sorting players out much easier.
4) Headshot bonus
Gives awards of extra health, ammo, and frag bonus (configureable, use any or all) for headshots. Useful on a sniper server to give extra points for headshots.
5) Tombstones
When you kill a player they will spawn a tombstone at their death site that will stay for a limited time. If you can get to it before it goes poof you can claim their soul and receive an award of health. Amount of award and how long the stone will stay is configureable.
6) Random Awards
When a player dies there is a 10% chance they will drop one of five items: HealthPack, ShieldBelt, Armor2, UDamage, or JumpBoots. Anyone may claim that gets to it first.
I included source code with comments so feel free to use anything in here that excites you. You may extend, alter, or rework this mod however you like. See me if you need any help.

Re: Soul Harvest 2
While I don't have it handy, as I'm at work, there's a mutator called EXPLOSIVEMODE which is kinda also designed to work against snipers.
Works 2 ways:
1) If you gib someone at close range, not a sniping thing obviously, they explode with a redeemer blast.
2) If a sniper gets a headshot on you, it launches a redeemer directly at them.
I used to deliberately hunt down mutators that worked against snipers. They annoyed the crap outta me.
