Re: Ultra Gore update release (version D)
Truly awesome, thank you so much for the mod update and the many improvements !!! I tested with bots and I cannot believe that a mod so complex and technically advanced was made for UT, and later was further polished to this grade.
The custom gibs added does not take damage, unlike the stock ones. It is possible to make them destroyable, too?

That sounds like a "maybe".

Re: Ultra Gore update release (version D)
Thank you.
The gibs of this mod are entirely client-side, meaning that the server is not aware about them, thus weapons cannot really apply any damage to them in order to destroy or even interact with them.
And they are client-side to spare the server from having to process and replicate a lot of data on what amounts to just a visual effect, so it was a deliberate design choice on my end, which has this kind of trade-off.
Otherwise servers would need more CPU power and bandwidth to run this mod, and clients themselves could start lagging even if they opted out from having the gore enabled through their game settings, which wouldn't be good.
So it's simultaneously a feature (optimization) and a limitation of this mod in particular.
Having that said, even that being the case, it would be possible to affect the client-side gibs with damage given server-side with minimal processing/bandwidth, if I were to build a reliable way to detect the actual damage itself.
However, each weapon, projectile, etc, tends to handle damage in their own way, and you can only catch damage being given if it's actually being given to something or someone else, making it quite tricky and bound to not work everywhere.
If I ever release another version with new features, I may take this into account (although unlikely).
Unfortunately, no.

Re: Ultra Gore update release (version D)
So, I've noticed when I kill someone at close range and they explode into a whole bunch of gooey bits I seem to be taking damage too.
That supposed to happen?

Re: Ultra Gore update release (version D)
I post two test videos using new Ultra Gore SSE recorded on two recent sniper maps made by Lunic, DM-[NES]Crypt and DM-[NES]AsylumV2.
