taking a page from Serious Sam

Post by EvilGrins » Sat Jan 21, 2017 3:29 pm

I found a great forum (mostly dead) filled with lots of great maps but sadly a lot of them have no bot pathing. This one in particular seemed ideal for a lot of customization so many could enjoy it online and off...

...for those of us who truly love some bots coming to our rescue when we realize our ego lied to us.

I've included a pathed version done by Nelsona + my final edit of his:

Mostly monsters get increasingly harder to beat the further you go in, and before I forget... WATCH OUT FOR THE BUNNIES!

Usual Suspects:
==============
.u /system
.uax /sounds
.umx /music
.unr /maps
.utx /textures
.png - pwetty
.txt - this message will self-destruct

Enjoy!

In the ReadMe that goes with I credited some of the monsters' creators... but I was kinda sleepy and I think I forgot 1 guy.

Gargoyles & Minotaurs were made by Leo T_C_K

Have you tried it yet? If not, I highly recommend at least 6 bots backing you up!

May make a couple more variants.

The XMAS monsters I got from Jack Griffin I already put on 1 map, but I'm gonna re-texture it with snow and XMAS decorations (if I can find them)...

The Dark Forest map that kinda crashed with Doom & Quake monsters, plus Doom-weapons?

Gonna re-edit them to this map, plus I've got 2 sets of original Doom-textures that can make that visually more interesting.

Plus, where the evil bunnies pop out to kill... think I'll try this random thingy:

A ghost will fit in well with Doom/Quake monsters.

I'd like a better picture of that Christmas monster please. The one you have has weapon flash all over it.

Also, I want to commend you on statement you made on the very first post of this thread:

"...for those of us who truly love some bots coming to our rescue when we realize our ego lied to us."


Am I right to say it seemed profound to me. I f not, I feel it is deep. How is that. All that matters is that I really liked it. Good stuff.

I'm playing a game called Warlords II. The particular match i'm in now is about 165 years old. It is an old turn based strategy game. Built for Windows 95 if I recall. Anyways, It is me against 7 warlords trying to take over the world basically. I have always won in the past in less than month or so. I thought I had always set the game to play with the highest AI possible. Well, I did something worse this time as we are in a stale-mate for over decade. I mention all of this because I wish there was bot pathing and bots would come and save me. I think I will lode the game and I'll be real mad after all these years to lose.
~Peace~

I'll see if I can find a better one later, when I'm doing that edit most likely.

Until then, here's the lot of them - viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2846&p=44376&hilit=xmas#p44376

Maybe someone made a UT conversion. Got any screenshots from it?

You say that Kelly made these Christmas monsters? What else did he make besides the zombie looking Santa?

I haven't spoken to Kelly in so long. I always tell myself to give him a call and then don't want to because we we used to talk on the phone a ton and I know his surgeries have changed his voice. He has or perhaps had a great soft southern draw of sorts. He should have narrated films or something. It was a great voice. There aren't too many great voices out there anymore. Kelly certainly had one. Not only was he easy to listen to, he was smart as hell and always very interesting.

I'm looking forward to his thoughts after the new patch is released.
~Peace~

He converted a lot of player models into monsters, he made an unfinished pack of Christmas monsters, Snow Titans, and other stuff like the Cyberus:

WOW! I loved that video. He should kill the first one that gets to him after letting them attach face to face a couple times and then run backwards and do the same to each one so you can see each one. Great work there I think. Kelly never fails to impress when it comes to knowing his UT stuff. I've only heard him complement about 5 other peoples work. Our very own Nelsona being one of them. I think Kelly is in the top 10 of the best UT knowing people on the planet and honestly, I put him in my own top 5.

My XMAS edit is almost done, just gotta finalize some elements... wish I had Christmas ornament textures.

So Herm, you'll get to fight those XMAS beasties soon.
