Problem with sniper rifle
Problem with sniper rifle
Just installed the chaosUT v1.0; my question is during a multiplayer game, some levels allow the use of the sniper RPB rifle and some don't? The maps that don't only has the regular sniper.
Is there any way to change/correct this? This is a favorite weapon among my friends.
Thanks.

TO my knowledge there is no reason why that should happen. Make sure you have check the weapons replaced check box. But any time you have the sniper2 you should have the RPB sniper as well. can you give the name of the map you were trying it on so I can double check?
Thanks and sorry for your trouble.

Coupe=UTK=,
the way the oringal coder did the weapons had a feature to correct for this in off line games using the zoom stops (you should see that the when using the zoom stops you are dead on). However this code does not work thanks to the way UT handles replication in on-line game. The best way to fix it is to re-write the code from the ground up. However we have had this "bug" in the code for a long time and I am thinking of not fixing it. Only due to the time it would take. I already have enough to go to finnish up the last few more serrious bugs we have as well as I need to move to our UT2k3 version ASAP. I promise that any issues left un-resloved here will be fixed in our 2k3 version. Sorry

There we go!I've learned to compensate for it
They gave me an M16 which did about the same thing when I was tested on a firing range in the woods of Missouri many years back. (the only other state besides Tejas I've vowed never to even fly over again)
I managed to shoot 38 out of 40 targets even so. Because I'm just that good!
Guess I'm saying that some things like this I don't mind. Kinda makes things feel real. It's not like it's off by much. And what would have happened if I had turned around and told the drill seargent behind me, '38!?! I was robbed! It pulls left!' hehe
Hehe, I know, I know, bragging and barely on topic. But that's me. HI!
I also would think it's neat to someday have weapons which maybe overheat once in awhile. Maybe even misfire and injure and/or kill you once in a great while. Why not? These things happen.

That's wrong, jb! You don't get the RPB Rifle the same time you pickup
a Chaos Sniper Rifle! What you mean is only possible, if you pickup a
Chaos RPB Sniper Rifle - that means in maps created for CUT. But
the way you say only works, if you pickup RPB ammo!
Thanks, Bruce!

Techincally we are both right
The way the code works is that when you pick up the sniper2 you get the sniper_rpb but with out any ammo. This is the same way for the crossbow, flak, ug and CAS (meaning when you pick up one you get all of the others of that class just with no ammo for the others). But I know what you ment

well, would fit in the whole "chaos" theme, wouldn't it? maybe make it an option to turn on and off? default to on though...R.Flagg {MoO} wrote: I also would think it's neat to someday have weapons which maybe overheat once in awhile.
