Weird Weapon Tweak

[Edu_99]

i saw in a video that a guy had 2 weapons....the first one was a huge concrete donkey that only caused damage to the other team......and the second one was a bazooka that exploded into 5 homing missile which all hit different worms from the other team......do u think thats possible? or is it maybe a fake video....

If it was made by a guy called _Kilburn, it's real. He can do anything.

[Edu_99]

yea ive heard of him hes like a genius....i pmed him like a week ago but he didnt answer

[Edu_99]

i cant post it because its more than 100KB....

[robowurmz]

_Kilburn's usually very very busy, so he takes his time replying to PM's.

[Edu_99]

oh....i think the guy who made it is named hells guardian on utube

I presume it can be done. I do know that you can supersize weapons, and have weapons break off into other weapons, and they're actually very easy to do. But I'm not sure if there's something special you have to do to have the weapons only hurt enemies, or for homing missiles to target random enemy worms.

you can do almost anything with proper lua scripting. there are currently two different people working on some very interesting weapon tweaks. _kilburn is one of them. the other guy has been working more on worms 3d, and has done some interesting stuff by decompiling some of the t17 scripts.

There's no rule against posting a link. The rule is that if you post ONLY a link, and nothing else.

[Edu_99]

but did usee the video?

[robowurmz]

Yeah I saw the vid. Hells Guardian is quite an amazing chap.

[_Kilburn]

Yes, he is pretty good, I didn't know that recursive cluster trick before. And sorry for not answering your PM, I didn't have Internet for a while. ;)

But I see your question got already answered.

[Edu_99]

its all good....just one quick question......when i tried to tweak the local.xml i always do something wrong....what do i need to whatch out for?

[Muzer]

If you are deleting a number of lines, make sure you don't accidently select the first character of the next line as well! You wouldn't belive the number of times I've done it.

[Edu_99]

yea....it works now....hehe.... whats ur favorite weapon?

glad to see that there is at least some w4 community active
killburn, i still have some old tweaks and tweak packs from you collecting dust on my hard drive :))) . some nice weaps like doom at night (damn i was shocked when i first time saw night effect) and other weaps from pack. You did such good job before that im even affraid to think what "sick" weapons you working on now :o

btw. i have just one advice to all tweakers: try to do some spectacular special effects with weapons but dont do lame **** like destroying all island (at least dont give them to public!) coz im affriad that would ruin gameplay when some lame *****es wanna show how powerful they are.

and one more idea.. is there any tweaker willing to try making w4 realtime game? anyone up to task? that would be.. erm.. revolutionary? :D:D:D

[_Kilburn]

I stopped tweaking a long time ago, but now, I'm back. :p I'm even working on some secret project that will make tweaking easier, and will be the first step to W4Tweaker, the awesome tweaking program I have never done.

Also, that's right, glad to see there are people here who don't like mass destruction. Make something that looks pretty, not some lame "bang, and the land is gone".

[Edu_99]

i like weapons that attack the worms not the land.....
