another one of my tests, i'm encouraging every one who reads this to come as there is some major game changing stuff in this one! Date - 31/07/2016 Time - 7pm GMT / 2pm EST - Server Password: test - Scripts download https://www.dropbox.com/s/0r5gr79b6vdvdro/31-07 test.zip?dl=0 most notable features: Jeep engines and armour! APC only armour! old weapons made anew! entirely redone infantry weapons to create further asymmetry and encourage more squad play! Armour rework - Changed Armour so there are two "categories", Light and heavy, most Armour's have been changed to "Heavy" and can only be used on tanks and Light is for Jeeps and APC's - APC's will get a few lighter variants of the Armour's New Light tank /AFV weapons: ( NEED TESTING) Depleted Uranium Light Machine gun - a weaker DU weapon with armor damaging capabilities Standard HE Cannon - Standard cannon with more explosive capabilities like the HE cannon Standard Bio ML - Standard Missile with a small bio capability added to it. Machine Guns rework: standard MG now called Light Machine gun with some changes .50 Cal MMG changed to .30 Cal MMG with some changes .50 Cal HMG changed a bit DU Mg's changed slightly HE MG is no longer ridiculously OP hope to be in the test (still being worked on) redone engines! installation: - navigate to: \SteamApps\common\Empires\empires - make a new folder on your desktop or empires folder called "script swap" - inside that folder put two more folders named "ScriptPires" and "original scripts" - put the RAR file in the Flash Pires folder and extract it, so you have a folder in the directory called scripts - cut the original script folder, found in \SteamApps\common\Empires\empires and paste it in the "original scripts" folder - cut the scripts folder in "flash Pires" and put it into the directory above - to swap scripts back for normal play, just cut and paste the script folders in and out of the main folder Not sure which one is loaded? check the folders to see which is empty Recommended: make an extra backup of the scripts folder elsewhere just in case
bump, downloads will be available when i have finished my final tweaks in about 20-30 mins from this bump
Bump again! scripts download has been added! spread this around! i wanna get alot of people on to help with a possible future for empires!
will post here again when creeper has updated the server, i believe he is busy atm so we may start a little late
So in the NF QC sub gun description it says "beroni" You might want to up the damage on the NF marksman rifle. It's really hard to hit something with it as it is and taking two shots is kinda weird with it. esp. as it has a pretty long reload time. Maybe make it have only max 5 bullets with 1 in the mag and double reload time, but increase damage to about 80% of normal health and have it zoom in a third more and make the zoom-out animation about 500ms longer? Makes it feel a bit more potent as a long range rifle, but makes it absolutely crappy at closer ranges.
Very big thank you to all who came! more than previously! i got lots of useful feedback which i will be taking into consideration
