Re: Possessed PlayerPawn

I wrote all my stuff to work with vanilla deusex.u (coz I didn't like the idea of replacing core code), so my player class literally sweeps through the entire level at runtime and replaces every actor with my own modified versions, transferring properties across as necessary. It's insanely inefficie...

Re: Possessed PlayerPawn

Prebeginplay, beginplay, postbeginplay and even postpostbeginplay. There are loads. What are you trying to do, exactly? If your code is critically dependent on a possessed playerpawn, why not have the playerpawn itself call it once possessed? I've put fucktons of code into my playerclass because it'...

Re: Decals Attached to Actors

Honestly, if you're going to be doing the hit tracing that crudely, it might just be easier to make a few textures with blood decals on them already, and just swap the textures. So something like UNACOTroopTex2_hitfront UNACOTroopTex2_hitback UNACOTroopTex2_hitboth Or similar. Less elegant, but also...

Re: Decals Attached to Actors

No, see the problem is when you draw to a scripted texture, it draws to ALL incidences of that texture. So if you have a texture for a dustbin and you code it so a bullet hole appears in it when shot, it will appear on every single dustbin. You need to pre-import enough identical (but uniquely named...

Re: Decals Attached to Actors

It doesn't, I've tried. It's yet another total scripting nightmare ("how does position XYZ on a mesh transpose to texture coordinates U and V on this meshmap?"), plus requires a unique set of scripted textures for each actor. With potentially 8 multiskins per NPC, this gets very silly, very quickly....

Re: Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

I think they're giving up on basically any hope of realistically fitting it into the actual DX universe. Mind you, they did that as soon as "LOL CYBER RENAISSANCE" was a thing. And everything became orange.

But hey. WRISTBLADE ALL THE THINGS

Re: Numerous keyboard controls unresponsive

Vandenburg tunnels map is an odd one. I seem to recall encountering weird problems with that map too: I think it's a map issue rather than a playercode issue. It doesn't have a missionscript, I remember that much (though this shouldn't be a requirement). One difference between entering a level in-ga...

Re: HDTP beta

No idea, it should be incredibly easy to export them (they're just .pcx files). You should be able to do it via the editor, even.

Re: Turning off crosshairs

It doesn't, but it does have a tremendous range. Since accuracy is implemented by adding an arbitrary offset to your starting fire vector position and then extending it to the weapon's maxrange, weapons with long ranges are inherently more accurate. i.e. Weapon pistol, deviating at 500uunits off to ...

Re: HDTP beta

No idea why that should be. The only thing HDTP does is handle a skinswap via renderoverlays.

Re: Turning off crosshairs

You could just press "toggle crosshair" every time you bring up the rifle.

Bear in mind that the crosshair itself doesn't affect accuracy at all: it just displays your current accuracy. You'll still get more accurate if you stop moving and wait, even without the crosshair.

Re: [Request] Asset only package with constant naming conven

Um. While I can see where you're going with this, I'm more or less certain that what you're asking is wholly beyond my time budget (and indeed ability) to do. And given that the HDTP team at the moment is....me, this does present a fairly insurmountable stumbling block. :/

Re: HDTP beta

Odd. The .uc clearly says book, yet the imported files in the .u say books, as noted. The mind boggles. As for the two missing books, it's entirely possible textures were never made for them. I didn't make out a list of textures, DaveyBoy just sent me textures for all those books he could find, as f...

Re: HDTP beta

Oh, well fuck knows what I was thinking, then. If I get time to implement it, then I'll do it. I was thinking I should upload the latest build sooner rather than later, though, so since it might be a bit of work porting all my code across and removing humorous references and shit, maybe I'll try upl...
