Yea, I guess so. In fact, that would be best! And for the Katana thing, I just think that people shouldn't complain too much about it. Like, come on, its got to be a little bit challenging right? Not pointed torward you

I have another question, will you be featuring lots of new maps? I have seen some people with custom maps, and I am just keep on thinking to myself...."Are these on the game, or do I have to download them?" I would like to see a huge rp. map like...... um..... city 15 being overrun. It sure is big enough for you to travel around. And theres a-bunch of apartments. And I still don't know about those ironsights. I hate to bitch about it, but I really love ironsights. So..... just another message. I can't make the mod, so you better! Or I will find you! jk, jk. XD Hope to get a reply soon.

Ok, I apologize to Amf, I know he did wrong things, but lets just give him a chance. ;] So Veteran_Gamer, can you answer my question with the ironsights and maps?

OK, last I heard iron sites where not on the to-do list, there are a few reasons for this. While I can not pretend to know all of Vet's reasons for leaving iron sites out of the update, I can give you my reasons for agreeing with his decision. First, I like Vet am a fan of oldschool gaming, games like perfect dark and golden eye for the Nintendo 64 where games that lacked iron sites yet they are still today arguably 2 of the best first person shooters ever made. Second, while iron sites wouldn't take to long to perfect, it would still use up valuable time that could be arguably be better spent on other aspects of development. Third, shortly after the original release, there was a custom weapons pack put out as unofficial DLC if you will, by ClaneLord back when there were maybe 100 or so members on the forum. This pack contained a few new weapons and activated iron sites for all of the weapons in the pack. I am positive that after the release of the new version there will be someone willing to put together an iron site pack considering that we now have nearly 500 members, I think we can safely say that someone will be up to the task. All this means is that you won’t get iron sites in the initial release but I am pretty certain that there will be a custom, unofficial pack of some kind available after release. As for maps, I was working on some custom maps however with the death of my hard drive, all three maps died with it. This doesn’t mean I am giving up on mapping, all that this means is you may have to wait a little while longer.

Ha naw I didn't get anything wrong I was just wondering if there was more to it. Ha Vet that was well handled I suppose, wierd how he suddenly put all that at the end of the post, what a angry little fellow. Anyway lxHowlxl I'm with you on the ironsights, but lets just wait for release. If vet gives me permission I can do an ironsight addon, there usually not to hard.

Yea I guess so..... I just want to be able to turn off the cross-hair to make it harder. But I can't hit things too well without the iron sights when I turn off the cross-hair. D:

Moving along (and I like Outbreak. Would be a shame if some asshole came in and did some bad shit to it)... I'm going to show my respects by saying good luck. I don't have a clue on how to mod source, but if I learned how, by luck, I would love to contribute what I can, but I can't make promises I can't keep, so that's just left in the open, but yeah, I'm back. Have been having a lot of family and life stuff to take care of, especially my Type-I Diabetes (which if unchecked... I can become VERY hostile).
As for the assholes that don't have a clue on how much hardwork is being put into Outbreak....well frankly they can just fuck off.
Anyways, I have somewhat of a clever suggestion. Maybe something in Outbreak can maybe either parody or mention the Umbrella Corporation? I don't know... like some kind've easter egg thing where the player can find or come across if they're lucky. lol Unless of course maps in this might try and concentrate on some of the well known Zombie movies. Like Crossroads Mall from Dawn of the Dead: Remake. The Hive from the first RE Movie. Just a hell of a lot of stuff would be neat. Zombies are the coolest things ever to be invented, because people have made so much badass concepts regarding Zombies and it's just awesome. They're either the slow moving ones or freakishly fast ones.......but all the same, the Undead fighting the living....I just love the whole concept behind stuff like this.
Anyways, regarding weapons.... I'm a sucker for the Colt M1911 .45 ACP, so including that somewhere in the mod would be cool, but not required, but something to think about. Hope you take my post warm-heartedly as it was intended. Catch ya sometime.

i gotcha clatus, we're good my dude :]
and howl, you can turn off crosshair by simply typing crosshair 0 in console, i believe, once you have your ironsites that is, heheh.
revan, the only force that will stop the growth of this insanely cool project, is overwhelmingly powerful entities such as, getting struck by lighting, accidental death, forced shutdown by legal issues (nothing im doing is illegal, even if it was, there would be a forewarning), etc etc
i'm replacing the p228 with another pistol...sometime soon, weapns are usually quick and easy to port, and take less than a week or few days even to port, adjust properties, and fully integrate to gameplay, so ill think about it, cool?
and my friend, i can tell more than you can imagine in simple, and in-depth posts. im not merlin the magic wizard, but my instincts to separate genuine from faulty have served me well, and i know you're a team player wishing this project the best, glad to see you again good buddy :]

Yea, I knew about the crosshair thing. But I really love the fact that you at least put in zoom, that makes it A LOT easier to kill zombies. Now... you should probably add an awp, scout, or some type of COD4 sniper-rifle. That would be really cool, because some of the zombies I find are easy targets if I had a decent sniping weapon besides the crossbow. ;]

yeah, sniper rifles in the source engine dont really sit well for me, although it may seem like source is capable of making larger scale maps than the average shooter, the entire mechanics of the engine, in my opinion, are designed for close quarter/mid-range combat, for tom clancy games, or a crytek engine game such as far cry/crysis, sniper rifles certainly reward the gameplay experience, but not really in source

Yea, I see what your getting at. In most hl2 games, there seems to be a load point every 10 to 30 minutes. Which isn't bad, but I have played on much bigger gaming environments then that.

the weapons are pretty accurate in outbreak, if you really need to use suit zoom, aim at head, hold down mouse1, and then release suit zoom
when you zoom out you'll shoot and hit them, that's how you sniped with the magnum in hl2dm

Yea, I know.......... but it would still be cool to have a sniper rifle. Oh well... maybe after the new outbreak VG will put one in.

I hope you could put revolvers back into outbreak . I think you should make it be found during the 'Route 17' chapter in one of those deserted houses, beside a dead body. Hell i dunno mabye flareguns too.I love the smell of burnin' brain-dawgs in the morning

I love the smell of fresh kicked ass in the morning, because I seem to kick a lot of zombie ass! XD
Anyway... maybe you could possibly add some type of airsupport like incept was doing on his maps that got recently wiped-out. D:

Vet, please tell me you will have the M3Super90 from SMOD: Redux in here as well? that shotgun just seems so damn perfect as a zombie hunting weapon; the kick, the feel, and the dakka, all seem just right

Post by no1gamer on Apr 13, 2009 11:26:06 GMT -8
yeah thats my favorite shotgun. ^^ i include the shotgun in every smod and in smod outbreak as well. ^^

Post by veteran_gamer on Apr 13, 2009 13:51:02 GMT -8
i'm afraid i won't be including anything found in any other smod as far as weapons..or anything really
you could always make a request OneManShow to release that weapon stand alone, or even do it yourself.. which quite a few people here know how to or can teach you
we just got a new support member who'm i've been working with recently and gotten to know quite well, other than his contribution to the weapons i'm afraid the loud out is pretty much final and decided
my intention wasnt to "ADD TONS OF WEAPONS TO SMOD....JUST BECAUSE.....IT CAN!!!"
it was to REPLACE the DEFAULT HALF LIFE 2 weapons only...2 pistols, crowbar, 1 smg, 1 rifle, rpg etc
looking at it this way, i've done even more than that, which i as a gamer would be more than happy with if i was someone else
2 pistols, 2 smgs, 2 files
come on now, give me break with the weapons guys, i've put endless hours into this thing, you guys can spare a little of your own time for your own weapons
the kind of player i have in mind for this mod, isnt someone who knows a lot of about smod, is like to edit, mod it, and experiment with it
the kind of player i have in mind for this mod, is someone who just wants to play games for what they are, someone who will Install, and play it for what it is. not edit and check files, scripts, etc. thats a mini modder, and you, ahem..We, will never be satisfied
on the other hand, a regular joe schmoe will play the game, and enjoy it for what it is, as he probably doesnt even know what a .cfg is, since he doesnt care, because he doesnt need to
know what i mean homies?

You had to give me step by step directions on a simple key-bind for L4D. That seemed detailed to me. HAHA
