Skins & Bots etc / JumboDS64's skins (reasonably NES limitation accurate!)

« Last post by JumboDS64 on September 08, 2023, 06:01:51 PM »

Skins! Yay. All should be reasonably accurate to NES limitations, in that I've tried to emulate sprite layering ala the NES Mega Man games - mainly by only using up to 6 colors, where the latter 3 are limited to 8*8 areas on the sprite.

Arcane Woman - DLN. 111

A robot designed to decipher ancient texts. Her thrusters utilize anti-gravity.
"Careful! Can't you see I'm working??"
Good point: Intelligent
Bad point: Conceited
Like: Ancient mysteries
Dislike: Social interaction

Based on a concept by the Shilic system on G.M. Blackjack's discord. Basically an alternate universe counterpart of Twilight Sparkle where she's a robot master.

DECORATE and ACS Modifications / [Game Mode] Roboenza Frenzy

« Last post by Russel on September 07, 2023, 06:24:16 PM »

Take to the streets during the Roboenza Pandemic!
The virus overwrites your programming, making you want to tear everyone apart and spread the virus further.
Stifle your local outbreaks by destroying infected robots.

ROBOENZA FRENZY is a revival of the classic Rage Roboenza mode by Messatsu. If you've played other shooters.
Inspired by your typical "zombie infection" mode, your goal as a survivor is to snuff out the zombie outbreak.
If you become infected, your goal changes: infect as many players as you can before dying out.

High-performing players are additionally rewarded: they become empowered with a "Frenzy Bonus" that enhances
their attack power.

Finally, defeated infected players have a chance of dropping a cure. Sometimes, miracles do happen.

Changes from Rage Roboenza:

(click to show/hide)

- This is a full rebuild of the roboenza mode, taking heavy inspiration from Rage Roboenza.
- Infections no longer use the Morph system. Instead, they are given a weapon they cannot deselect.
- Player can select a skin they are swapped to when infected.
- Newly redone graphical assets.
- New sound effects.
- Music choices now reflect the MM8BDM campaign.
- Mode runs in TLMS instead of LMS, which makes it much easier to track players and allows for easier win/loss checking.

Projects & Creative / Re: MEGA MAN ROCK FORCE IS RELEASED (V2) - WEAPONS COMPAT WITH v6B

« Last post by MegaVile on September 04, 2023, 08:13:13 PM »

Weapons Pack v3b -> v3d

Sorry for that unofficial v3c, by the way. It only just served to fix Photon Flare being OHKO and I was not aware there would be further updates.
Glad to see this whole thing got sorted out with updates to boot, though!

DECORATE and ACS Modifications / [Server Util] Weapon & Pickup Remover & Replacer - v1a

DON'T LIKE THE BALANCE DECISIONS BY THE VANILLA DEVS??
neither do i and i made 90% of it

Gravity Hold got you down?
Mirror Buster killing you and your family while also serving as its own defense attourney?
Metal Blade eating your entire supply of cheese?
Time Stopper?

HERE'S HOW YOU BAN SHIT:
- Open the console. Type "banwep_weaponname true". Reset the map. It's gone! Goodbye!!
   - Example: "banwep_timestopperwep true".
   - Note: This relies on the weapon's ACTOR name. So you'll need to know that.
   - Buster upgrades are banned by UPGRADE name, not by weapon name.
- To unban, just type "banwep_weaponname false". Oh no... it's back...
- If you want to reset all bans, use the "resetwepbans" command.
- Also bans the weapon from vanilla's random LMS loadouts, and even Eddie!
- Don't like a certain item? Ban it! "banitem_item true" to stop the bullshit.
   - Example: "banitem_exitunititem true"
   - Works on basic pickups, too!
   - And PartyBall!
   - Once again, you need to know the actual actor name.
- Command to remove all item bans is "resetitembans".

Don't like empty space? HERE'S HOW YOU REPLACE SHIT:
- Open the console. Type "replacewep_weaponname replacement". Reset the map. Is that a new outfit? Wow!!
   - Example: "replacewep_metalbladewep needlecannonwep"
   - Note: Just like with banwep, you'll need to know the actor names for both things you're switching.
   - Also note: You can use ANY ACTOR NAME for this replacewep functionality. Put a prop there if you want.
- To remove the replacement, just do "replacewep_weaponname """. Back to normal!
- If you don't like any of the replacements and want them undone, use the "resetwepreplaces" command.
- Items too!! Replace shit you don't like with other stuff with "replaceitem_item replacement"!
   - Example: "replaceitem_etank bighealth"
   - Keep in mind, you need to know the actual actor names of the swaps!
- Command to revert item replacements is "resetitemreplaces"

All this works with CUSTOM STUFF TOO!
- Custom weapons and items can be banned or replaced with the same commands!
  Just make sure you have a "set" before them!
   - Examples: "set banwep_crystalhunterwep true"
            "set replacewep_pulsestopperwep frostylaserwepcm"
            "set banitem_item1nc true"
            "set replaceitem_crunchransnareitem rushbikeitem"
- Custom weapons and items DO NOT get reset by the built-in reset commands,
  as scripts only have write access to CVars defined in CVARINFO.

None of this info saves to the ini, so you'll need to make sure they're set on every server run!
(They set under TSPG's "Additional Parameters")

Mod by me, A very competent vanilla dev 
Proofreading by Trill.

Known Issues:
- Some pickups, specifically those that give a passive upgrade like Energy Balancer,
  cannot be easily tied back to their pickup, which makes it difficult or impossible
  to fully remove if a player spawns on top of them before the system can remove them.
  This happens at tic 0, where no script can possibly intervene.
  I'll look into options another time.
