So, you want a Sniper Mutator, or a Custom Sniper Mutator?
The Sniper Mutator already exists in UT GOTY, search in the Mutators List :wink:

If you want to build a mutator with a custom Sniper Rifle made by you or someone else, then that takes UnrealScript coding...

Thanks but do you know if there is any mutators to download ready and go i have seen some on servers out there looks nice. Do they all do it themselves?

But you didn't answer my question, is the normal standard Sniper Mutator (which you start with a sniper, and battle with the sniper), or something else? :?:

Now we are talking :D

I have played on some zp servers, and I think you want a Capture the Flag server played only with snipers, right?

I like that ideia :rock:

So to start a server like that, and supposing that you know how to open a server (or dedicated server), all that you have to do is to activate the "Sniper Arena" mutator in the mutators list on your UT GOTY, choose your maps that you want to place on your server, and a "Vote Menu" is nice if you want to.
The "Sniper Arena" already exists in UT GOTY, look for it in the mutator list menu, and the "Vote Menu" you can download here, just go to: http://www.ut99.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=86 - The Downloads List :wink:
(Search for MapVote for the Vote Menu)

If you have some more questions, place them here :tu:

The discription "sniper server" is badly used within the comunity...
I take it people refer to using the "sniper" meaning sniper rifle is the only weapon on the server... and you can run around like a headless chicken shooting everyone you see...

yet to discribe a "Camping Server" you cant use the term "sniper" or you have running targets to shoot, who complain you dont show yourself.... :loool:
and I still misread threads wondering which style they mean... :P

Rather than create a new topic, I thought I'd revisit one from 2008, whose name finally matched what I was looking for: I was wondering if there was a simple mutator that modifies the sniper so as to remove the distance covered by the projectile, which is normally limited (or at least to widen it).
I realized that many CTF-FACE fans had created even bigger tower levels, sometimes forgetting that the sniper's distance is limited and that beyond that the projectiles can no longer reach their targets.

If you search the forum you'll find several discussions about that. AFAIK in order to increase the range of the basic sniper rifle you need to subclass it and extend the range that way. The alternative is to use one of the many 'enhanced' sniper rifles out there - most of these have an enhanced zoom as well.

Ok, I'll have a look through the old topics, thanks.
