UT2k4 map pack by m00kz
====
INFO
====
This is a TC to emulate Unreal Tournament 2004. Every weapon has been ported from the Unreal Engine to the Halo CE engine using Unreal Editor and 3DS Max 9.
Everything done by me, save for a what's mentioned in the credits.
Every stock level has had their weapons replaced with their UT counterparts, and included in the pack is the original level "ut2k4_Deck," based on the level from the Unreal series. Also included is "Deck_Classic.map," which is the same level with the original Halo weapons.

Hey now, Grace wasn't in UT2k4...:raise:
Awesome job anyways. It'll be the next thing I download for CE, which is currently lacking in custom content on my computer right now. =D
That looks really cool! I haven't really gotten to play Unreal for a while.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
I'm having an issue with exceptions on Deck over the net... I'm not sure why, only some players get it, others don't. The scripts don't work 100% either. They only kill some of the players.
Would somebody be willing to help me look into this? I'm not much of a scripter.
E: Disregard that bullshit, Unit_Kill causes exceptions for non-hosts. I'm going to be using damage scenery. So sorry for the untested release.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
That's pretty bad-ass. If you don't mind, could I add that to the first post?
Also, I'm uploading the map pack again via FileDripper and FileFactory. MegaUpload is fubar for me at the moment. They should be up within the next thirty minutes to an hour.
Again, sorry for the untested release, I feel like a fuckin nub.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
My script is causing the crashes? I use that same script on like 4 of the IMP maps and have never had that problem.
That is really odd.

Well, just to be sure you don't have any problems in your maps, use this script. Haven't had any problems with it yet, and its alot shorter then that script.
The combination of walking speed + 200 ping was huge lead, I'll try to get these uploaded to HCEL.

You should put up your maps on halomaps.org, then it has a chance at becoming more popular.

the cheap weapons will (see REDEEMER!!!, Flak cannon, rockets)
quiet honestly I hope dennis will keep the maps as just one map pack. it'll be a bitch for halomap DLers to DL each...and....every....map

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
i played some of the maps online, its really smooth, but... the weapons are hard to use and most people use that one shotgun like gun.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
You can see how much lag is in your shots with the Grace and Lightning Gun and a few other weapons, should help you determine where to aim.. but yeah, even I have trouble with it on 33 ping. That's how shit is in UT though, just the lag in UT is about 1/3rd what it is in Halo, 33 ping servers aren't uncommon in UT

pretty sure the point of this deck was to make it forerunner-styled

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
Some variety to textures would be nice :]
You could add darker forerunner plates and those signs on big flat walls. Also, is it possible to make the lava so you don't die instantly? Like fire does hurt you in Halo CE. The pool should be more shallow then, though.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
m00kz you modded all the normal maps with your UT mod... Deck should be totally UT themed tbh.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
nubs :| if I ever do a V2 I will ;)
I'm taking a break though. I worked my ass off for about a month to get my first big project released, debugged, etc. God, don't even get me started on the issues I had with HEK+'s crap ass extraction. It made me want to punch kittens.
Really though I think I'm just going to do grunt work and work on other people's stuff. I hear Malloy wants to start a UT3 mod up, and we figure I'd be a reliable weapons/projectile tagging guy.
E: Updated the first post with a final trailer.

itzutak is a deemer whore
Also I've changed the line up of levels in my server. I've taken out most long-range levels (except for BloodGulch), so it's got that close-range arena-style vibe to it.

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
i love the UT maps, shame no one plays the server, I hound my friends to get the maps, I might as well send them the link to the map pack if thats ok, halomaps makes it a hassel...oh and it was fun playin against you and your friend m00kz so much flak cannon and lightning guns and my occasional redeemer whoring (sorry)
well you did a good job and hopefully in the future you'll try a hand at another UT map for CE
cheers

Re: UT2K4 Map Pack released
I miss 2K4's ludicrous gibs and fast pace, but this shit's still fun to play.
Lag makes combowhoring a little difficult, but otherwise awesome.
