Just Wondering

Can someone make their own weapon? Or atleast change the skin on one and make a new one? Just asking because I think it would be cool to turn the bastard sword into the master sword from Zelda.

I would have no clue how to attempt that. What I do know though is nothing like that can be released publicly due to a little man named "copyright"

if you change the texture file you would never be able to play online because of mismatch errors. :(

Just wondering lol. Maybe Team ChaosUT2 will make a fan requested patch with weapons that looks like stuff people want. It would be cool to see a lightsaber or the master sword lol.

I would love to do a light saber but thats probably up to the troopers team to do as they have LA blessing..we did have some plans to add on more features like magic swords that glow a bit :)

I rather not make a new thread so I guess I can ask another question here.

Will there be team dual?

team duel?

its been talked about before..so maybe..have to see how to make it work in the game...ie make sure it adds something to the mix.

Well I think it gets boring just dueling one on one, add a team to the mix and you could have clan battles or simulate ninja's fighting each other or something cool. Have like a huge arena so people can be spaced out. Would be quite tactical because of the different weapons, like all those dual hand axes go to the right to out power the dual hand blades and the katanas go to the right to out speed the megaton hammers. Would love to see it.

The problem with melee is that it requires a gametype to pull off. When we do the gametype remakes of DM and CTF for example melee should be present.

First off, I love both ChaosUT and ChaosUT2 - definately the most fun and professional mods out there. :)

I've been eagerly awaiting the melee additions and you've done a great job with the latest Chaos release.
There is an incredible amount of potential with it. I'd love to see a team melee using deathmatch maps. Or even an Invasion type fighting non-ranged monsters. I think low tech weapons would work well in the mix too - crossbows, oil flasks, throwing daggers, etc.

Just my 2 cents - thanks for all your good stuff :)

Dude! Welcome to the forums. That's a fine 1st post! :) Thanks for the kind words.

The team duel idea is starting to sound like something we need to discuss further.

The idea of some sort of melee/invasion/medieval/kicka** game type has been going on for some time. It's still early on in it's life though, almost everything at this point up in the air. Including when exactly we might do such a thing. But there is something 'there' isn't there? Something behind the door of that idea. You can just feel it.

Yes, you can feel it. It the feeling that keeps you awake at night when you lay in your bed. That maniacle high pitched laughter in the back of your mind. A glint of yellow and black in the corner of your eye. Then you think: Man, Iv got to stop thinking about Chaos and go to sleep.

And then you hear a door creak......
