cookievengeance Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 This all sounds very cool, but DAMMIT! I've resorted to and old video card because my Geforce2, which is good in every respect but this one, has this weird thing it does where it freezes everything except the music and goes all fuzzy. You can see the picture, but it's all fuzzy with weird colored lines on it and you've got to reset. Does it in all games and sometimes out of them. Oh well... Anyway, i can't play gta3. I've been wanting bombs in the dodo for ages, didn't think it was possible. Well done!
trx Posted March 20, 2003 Author Posted March 20, 2003 I've made some minor adjustments to the bombing thing. It now drops one of those red explosive barrels which detonates upon impact. So the higher you fly, the longer the delay will be, instead of a timed delay. I'm still fiddling with the bombing camera (i feel that thing is a MUST) and i'll post an update tomorrow or so.
Sandstorm Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 could you make one of the boats drop red barrels in the water
xerox Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 the ghost missing boat might have to be found in code (fun =) but i guess its possible. Or all the boats you have could have those bombs (doubt they would have the barrel dropping addon thing) They would only cause explosions on impact, but the idea could still work =)
trx Posted March 20, 2003 Author Posted March 20, 2003 making some sort of proximity mines for boat racing can be done, you could use the bouys ( i used them as bombs for the dodo just to see what happend, and it was hilarious to have the big bouy dropping out of the sky, then standing on its needle searching for balance, and when it found balance, it exploded. it looked really cool, but wasn't practical ) if there are enough ppl who think this is a good idea i might start working on that, but i'd like to concentrate on land missions first
Sandstorm Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 ok land see and air missions thats definitly gonna kick ass how bout dropping red barrels out of the back of trentons
trx Posted March 20, 2003 Author Posted March 20, 2003 What's a Trenton? You wanna drop barrels out of the neighbourhood Trenton? I suppose that's possible... =P
Sandstorm Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 the big uhaul truck or mabey a cartel cruiser some 1 drives some 1 in the passanger seat some 1 in the truck bed driver drops the bombs the guy in the truck bed shoots them and blows up the enemies chasing them
xerox Posted March 21, 2003 Posted March 21, 2003 hmm - i think we are extending what the programmers can do here =) Just have someone on the back throwing grenades instead =)
trx Posted March 21, 2003 Author Posted March 21, 2003 I agree with you, xerox. I think he got a *little* carried away there. Having only the Dodo drop bombs is good enough as far as i'm concerned, and I don't even know if they MTA team is willing to implement this. Anyways, for the Dodo fans, I made the bombing a bit better and BIGGER. =) get it here: http://meazle.xs4all.nl/gta/trx/bomb.htm
Guest Posted March 21, 2003 Posted March 21, 2003 TRX is tha man.... Im gonna have fun with this for a long time
trx Posted March 31, 2003 Author Posted March 31, 2003 I have completed work on a single player mission with Dodo bombing implemented. Anyone interested can practice his flying and bombing skills for when and if this mod goes Multiplayer. New features are: - A complete mission built around the bombing - Cutscenes - Removed all Unique Jumps - Mission is given to you by DARKEL, the mysterious guy who didn't make it in the final version of GTA3 Get it at the link which flamin-h was already so kind to post (above) Have fun =)
