Ripper research tool

[Polle]

Someone on Dog server requested a tool I wrote ages ago (while I was still in RC). Its a modified ripper providing faster feedback when you hit an objective.

- Put rip.u in your system folder
- Start UT in single player
- Type 'summon rip.pracripper' in console

Primary fire is a fast ripper making a sound when your aim is correct. Damage is 0 so it doesnt destroy objectives.

Secondary fire shoots a ripper leaving a colored smoke trail.

omfg

gj man

I fink html ought to own even more on lava

edit: wow its really a wonder, its a lot more usefull for upclose rippers then far away ripper yet it fucking owns very gj man, I just optimised a couple of rippers I knew by figuring out how much my aim could vary and still get it

 

[Anni]

that would be me, tnx alot polle!

 

[sobo]

is it possible to distinguish headshot rippers and normal ones somehow ?
"head"shots destroy objectives a lot faster you know.

 

[Polle]

Changed the sound for headshots

 

[html]

hahaha Polle, I don't know you but you fucking own!

I didn't knew objectives had heads o_0

but now we can see them

 

[Bart]

wow gonna test it asap. gj m8

Bah, I wrote one of these as a server-side mutator too

I expect Polle's>mine however :X

Why are you never in IRC anymore Polle??

 

[Raft^]

wonderfull stuff Polle =)

 

[Humph]

Suggestion: A picture-in-picture window that shows a blades-eye-view from the most recently fired shot.

 

[Vitz¥^]

pwnz0r! lol, very nice tool just a shame u have to remember the summon command....

Why are you never in IRC anymore Polle??

Ill pop in once i get mIrc installed. Nickserver probably forgot me though (again).

Good idea. It does give you a better impression of when you are getting close.

LMAO thx to your ripper I now know that you can headshot the ventilation access in subbase by shooting like 2 meters above it

Can get most destroyable objectives with one ripper. In fact, if i remember right only one I couldnt get with one ripper was the crystal on Mazon. Prolly to do with strength of objective or something.

 

[m1cr0]

crystal of mazon needs 17 shots if I remember correct.
With a "hs" it needs only 5 rippers and not 1 because it has so much strength or healthpoints or whatever you call it

Nice 1 .Saves me lot's of time trying to find out how to hit something. I always thought tha ripper blade bounced of 1 wall in Frigate.
Only, it becomes laggy when the ripper goes out of range
At least that happened to me in Ocean floor.

 

[sobo]

standard ed health needs 5/1 afaik like lava gen or frigate comp

 

[Sausage]

cool stuff to play around with! thanks

 

[Cratos]

hehe, same idea, I developed almost the same tool back in 2003 that shows an instant beam just like a laser pointer

good old ideas from psy

edit: just tested your headshot and camera thingy, thats really superior

btw I always knew that every coder has something like this in his pocket

 

[Joko]

hax tbh!
