MM8BDM official Weapon Template (v5d)

I should probably post this here so it can get noticed better.

Exactly how do you get the screen to flash? And can you get it to flash black?

I second this. I've been puzzled by this, because I want to make certain weapons that causes flicker and whatanot.

Centaur Flash's coding does that. It's an ACS script that is defined on the Global lump that is commented now.
Though it does not flash your opponent's screen.

Is there a code for possibly making a weapon teleport you or someone else?
I would really like to know.

There is... But  uses ACS and is found in ZPortal.

STOP! ZPortal Teleportation DOES NOT work outside of single player.

Actually, ZPortal doesn't even work in ZDoom, as it requires Hardware Rendering/OpenGL. So the odds of its coding being successfully ported to Skulltag are small, I think.

...I've played it on skulltag enough time to know it works.

I use Thing_move

... *facepalm*.

The MAPS in ZPortal require opengl because of 3D floors and models. It's nothing to do with the way the teleport mechanics work. Also, try out Hide N Seek, that mod has a fully working teleport gun.

You don't get it, do you?
The first time I found this around, it was in a post that contained something like this:
ZPortal is a mod for ZDoom and GZDoom.

If you try to run Zportal in ZDoom, it will display a message asking for Hardware Rendering, and you will be unable to move.

It's a simple code that checks if you're using OpenGL. If you aren't, then it doesn't allow you to move. This is how Cutmanmike forced people to play in OpenGL.
That has nothing to do with the portal gun.

Here's a nice trick I did here that may be usefull, should you want your projectile to spawn another projectile with a position related to the pitch it is going to:

Code: [Select]

TNT1 A 1 A_SpawnItemEx("TheBullet",SpawnX+SpawnZ*(momz/ProSpeed),SpawnY,SpawnZ-SpawnX*(momz/ProSpeed),momx*1.2,momy*1.2,momz*1.2,0,SXF_ABSOLUTEMOMENTUM|SXF_NOCHECKPOSITION)SpawnX, SpawnY, SpawnZ: The Distances you want it to spawn at. Keep in mind that you have to imagine their positions as if you could not aim up or down!
ProSpeed: Speeds of the projectile that will spawn the subprojectile "TheBullet".

Theorical part below:

Replace "momx*1.2,momy*1.2,momz*1.2" with "SubProSpeed-((momz/ProSpeed)*SubProSpeed),0,(momz/ProSpeed)*SubProSpeed" and remove the "SXF_ABSOLUTEMOMENTUM" flag to have the subprojectile be fired at the same direction the projectile was going to but at a set speed and enabling you to change the angle the subprojectile will go at.
THIS THEORY IS YET TO BE PROVED

EDIT: Fix on the code

Sorry for bumping, but...
Is there an updated weapon template?

[NitroBro]

try this, i just made it, and it works for me! but if anything goes wrong pm me please
