The view from a proxy. The view from You-the-proxy.

ohh ok cool
Btw, have you guys (the chaos team) seen that recently released custom model DungJian? (Japanese samurai inspired model) (
http://www.ut2003hq.com/pafiledb/pafile ... ortby=name ) anyway wouldn't it be cool to be able to use the model and his weapon as a melee weapon in chaos ut?
If so.... then uh how about contacting the authors and asking them if they could donate the model!
Well actually I had emailed the authors (2 people did the model/skin) in regard to a bug with the karma ragdoll of the model and how it conflicts with some custom weapon packs. In the email I mentioned about chaos ut and how it would be cool for that character to be able to use the melee weapon he has on his back (which he uses to do some of his custom taunts) as a weapon in the next version of chaos ut (to rival the katana). The author told me that he liked chaos ut and that they'd probably donate it if you guys where interested, its just that you guys would have to ask them to donate it or something.
There is another custom model that has a sword on her back.... called Bevonne (you can get it at the link I posted if anyone is interested)

In regards to the MUG pellets, it was an idea brought up some time back as people were complaining that Chaos had no machinegun or shotgun type weapon. I came up with pellet ammo for the MUG to be that weapon. The primary fire would fire out a constant stream of pellets (like a machinegun), while the secondary fire shoots out a full cartridge of pellets in a single burst (like a shotgun). It was a simple way to create a chaos version of a basic weapon that seems to be in demand.

Behindview should do the trick... Hmm maybe we should put that in the keybinds, so that people don't have to do it through the console... While we're at it, maybe also put in a bind slot for "use", since there are triggers in UED that can be triggered by someone hitting use on them, as well as Bulldogs... But maybe UT2004 will do that...
Uh oh I seem to be babbling again...

Thats is a view from a proxy that you can control. Works like so:
You play INV game type.
You die and sit out.
Then you wait for an active proxy. If you find one you take over it.
Controls are simple. Look, jump and fire (blowup).
The HUD shots is semi-done. I wanted to get an overlay to replace the black stuff. Anyways monsters show up with Green Xhairs. The bar on the right is your health. Its size and color is the amount of health you have left. Big and green is full, small and dark red almost no health left.
Once you blow up you can take control of another proxy if its available.
If you kill a monster your team does get credit for it.
At the end of the current wave all proxies explode and the player is respawned back as their "normal" stuff.
We will use this to test the waters on proxy players. If you like..then who knows

It is? I don't recall seeing it... Was it added by the bonus packs or something?

I think it is . I know the only mod I have Is cut2 installed , and only a few weapon mutators , but its right there in my menu so I assume it was added with one of the patches...

"use" shipped with the game as it was the only way to get in or out of the bulldog

Ok... It's not there on my menu... I'm either going blind or going insane... No, wait, I'm already insane...
I'm assuming it's supposed to be on the keybinds screen right? Can someone show me a screenshot? I feel like such a n00b...
