Help With BJustReal 1.3...

[Young]

Yes you heard it right... we're running the UO version of BJustReal... I've e-mailed the mod creator but was hoping that there's an easy fix for this small problem.

The bazooka's... stutter when you aim them. Just like the scopes did with the initial BJust for CoD:2, the bazooka's do it too. If I could fix this one problem our UO server would be perfect.

We're trying to re-establish the community in UO and I would greatly appreciate the help from anyone on how to fix this one issue.

[Bjusterbaarlik]

Wow, someone actually still plays UO. In my opinion the best installment of the CoD series ever.

And yes, BJR 1.3 is actually quite old and it has been a while since I have been working on the UO version. But, believe it or not, the last time I worked on BJR... was for the UO version.

If you want, I have a new version which you can use and try out. It is actually a release candidate and we have tested it with quite some players on our server which all went very well. I just haven't gotten around to releasing the thing yet. As far as I know, no known bugs are present in this version. The bazooka problem you have, is also fixed in this version.

Download the new BJR here (http://www.aa-clan.net/downloads/BJustReal/BJustReal_UO_Version_1.5.zip). This version comes with a client pk3 file which was needed to fix the stuttering issue. Ofcourse, the client file also adds some nice client features in, like taunts and some new weapons to choose.

Here here! Thanks for the link... uploading now. I'll post our vitals when I have it all working like a charm.

[Young]

My only question... there were a few CVARs not in the updated sample config... ie...

set scr_basheffects 1 // Enables the realistic effects when bashed.
set scr_antitankpluslightweapon 1 // Players can carry anti-tank guns when in possession of a light weapon.
set scr_antitanksecondary 0 // Players can carry anti-tank guns with any other weapon.
set scr_sniperdrops 0 // Determines whether players drop sniper rifles when killed.


Are these CVARs still in effect (carried over from the previous version)?

Also saw mention of burning bodies... but no CVAR for it. Is that controllable?

[Bjusterbaarlik]

All those cvars have been deleted. The extended bash effects are still in effect, though.

The cvars which allow carrying an anti-tank weapon are deleted, everyone is now only able to carry a panzerfaust if you restrict the number of weapons one may carry. Sniper drops are gone totally, sniper rifles are always dropped on death, as long as weapon drops are on ofcourse.

The burning bodies is not cvar controlled and is always on. People's bodies only burn if they have been killed by a flamethrower. They will then only burn for approximately 10 seconds.

[Young]

Fantastic... thanks for the fast reply. Here are those server vitals I talked about:

Game Server:

Server Name- [1st AD]/[4th ID] Realism Headquarters
Server IP- 8.2.0.29:28960
Mod- Custom Un-released version of BJustReal

We are also using a custom sound mod and skinpack that alters all of the main weapons, and vehicles. The soundpack also adds ambient sounds, vehicle sounds, explosions and much more. The files are available for download via the server at rates approximately 900KB/s or you can pick it up from our downloads section on the 1st Armored Division website.

[Young]

Having a problem with people not being able to get on the server because of:

could not load weapon file 'weapons/mp/bato/ba10_turret_mp/'

I found that file in both the mod and client files. But they can't download the client file until the third download of our folder. So I'm wondering if that's the problem?

Trying to get someone to download the client off-server and see if it helps. Any ideas BJ?

[Bjusterbaarlik]

Yes, that is a weapon from the Afterhourz vehicle pack to which I did some modifications. This error comes up when players don't have auto-downloading on or when they simply haven't downloaded the client. If auto-downloads are on at both the client's and the server's side and the file is available for download, the player will download it automatically and he will be able to join the server.

We only had this problem once, a reconnect did the trick.

[Young]

For us... we have three files in the folder and it's wanting to download the other two before the client. This is where the error comes in. Is there a way to make the client first up for download?

We have:

/uo
-UO files
/main
-Main files
/awe_uo (old name but still used as FS_Game)
-BJust mod
-Sound pack
-Skin pack
-Client file

When they auto-download they download them from largest file to smallest. Client file being the smallest

[Young]

Also having a few other problems now that maybe you can help with. First issue is crosshairnames. They don't show up. Second problem the flamethrower wont show up in the maps (like Foy) and wont show on the select menu.

Well, regarding the crosshairnames, if you had those off before or if you have been playing on a server that had them turned off, you need to turn them back on manually. If other people have the same problem, open the console and type cg_drawCrosshairnames 1. Let everyone else experiencing this issue do that as well and you should have it resolved.

About the flamethrower, make sure you have... oh no, never mind. I see a bug now.. ha HA! I am going through my code as I am writing this and I will fix it. Expect an updated version either today or tomorrow, since I need to test it first.

[Young]

How about the download issue... any way I can resolve that?

You're excellent by the way! Not only is UO an older game... and you guys and most of the community is still in CoD:2... but you're still making adjustments to the mod and fixing things. EXCELLENT!

[Bjusterbaarlik]

Well, I connected to your server yesterday without a problem. All files were downloaded automatically into the correct folder(s) while I was off getting some food. I have no clue why it does not work for some people. As long they have auto-download turned on in their multiplayer options, everything should work.

By the way, CoD2 is actually quite dead in our clan. We play a number of different game nowadays and some of us still play UO. Sometimes we fool around on our server with a small amount of people, playing some kind of King of the Hill on the Broadsword map. It's quite fun.

Here (http://www.aa-clan.net/downloads/BJustReal/zzz_svr_BJustReal.pk3) is an updated pk3 file. Just copy/paste it over the one you already have on the server. (Well, stop the server first, then paste it over... you know the drill...)

[Young]

With the new version I get "Unknown Weapon Selected" in console and the weapon can't be picked. Also getting the same thing for the Panzerschrek and Bazooka.

[Bjusterbaarlik]

Hmm, I can't seem to reproduce that either when making my own local server or on our own -={AA}=- server. What did you do exactly? It seems like the weapons were somehow not precached.

[Young]

I got it to work now... must have been a bad upload or something.

Are you planning on expanding on this mod at all? If you are there are a few things we would like to see that should be fairly small. For example:

-Limit/remove Panzerfausts from maps
-Limit AT weapons to map specific (ie. remove them from maps like Carentan and Dawnville)
-Set ammo loadouts for all weapons (not tied into the rank system)
-Allow artillery without having rank enabled (timed CVAR or score)

There's a ton of things we would like to see if you're planning to work on this mod further... and we'd be more than happy to test, and push for your mod in the community.

[Bjusterbaarlik]

Well, I am actually pretty satisfied with the current content of the mod. I guess I could do the 'map-spawned panzerfaust removal' since that is only 2 lines of code, but the rest does not really interest me. I never play without the rank system enabled, since that is one thing that makes UO feel lke UO and not CoD2.

However, if you want to disallow certain weapons for certain maps with specific gametypes you can do that with config files. This is stock UO feature which, I think, was introduced with the 1.51 patch.

Added ability to execute map and gametype specific config files. When a map is loaded on the server, a config by the name of <mapname>_<gametype>.cfg will be executed automatically, if it exists. If it doesn't exist, then it will be ignored. Eg. mp_foy_dom.cfg will be automatically run when mp_foy is started in Domination mode.
So, if you don't want panzerschrecks in Carentan while playing Search & Destroy, you only have to put scr_allow_panzerschreck 0 and bjr_axis_at_limit 0 in mp_carentan_sd.cfg. You will have to create seperate config files for different map/gametype combinations, but I think it is a nice feature.

[Young]

Fantastic... that'll fix a few problems. I hadn't found that information before.

There was one thing I wanted to change, not sure if you know how and where to point me in the direction of it... but the current sprinting recharges WAY too fast. I'd like to have it so that players can sprint up to 100%, but then have a recharge of about 300% of the time it's set to now. As it is on small maps like Carentan you can get from one side of the map to the other in about 10 seconds. On the larger maps you'll likely have vehicles anyway.
