Hey, I just wanted to show you that I did this with the leaked source code (thanks again doll265), if anyone is interested in trying it out just contact me or wathever. I have no plans with it, just messing arround with the source code and stuff. Hope you like it! https://youtu.be/l3F4yU2zMe8 |

Glad you liked it! I'm planning to make it work by a radius range eventually, and maybe put some sort of shockwave effect to the ground. That would take a lot more work (I'm far from a expert programmer). This was relativelly simple to implement, but it was cool to understand how the weapon engine actually works on the game.

I agree! Its a pretty awesome idea! Does it replace a weapon? Or is it its own thing? |

It's a new weapon, all old weapons are still there. Now AI can use it too

I too think it's not a good idea to put it in the game. It's delicate to change the game like that and it would cause too much trouble with game versions on multiplayer. I think revolt should stay how it's always been. But who knows, some day we could launch a spinoff of the game with tons of source mods included. Maybe include knockout, battle mode and stuff. that would be fun |

Ah, so that's actually new! I thought it was a beta weapon you discovered or something, but you made it yourself? That's cool!! |

Is it possible to somehow fix the spawn cars? Some of them fall into the ground immediately after the start of the game, which is why the game is broken. |

RVGL most certainly needs a plugin interface of sorts to enable and disable certain weapons. That way, hosts can have one-weapon races and provided everyone is comfortable with P2P upload and download (which would facilitate track and car sharing as well), custom weapons like those seen in this thread would be a possibility. Maybe, for custom weapons they're provided their own space in ./gfx, and RVGL call call upon that graphic because of a weapon parameter file, but there can be ./temp where host-provided custom content can go, and RVGL would read from /temp first, with that folder deleted on game exit, but with the option before exiting to keep any content given. Expanding a bit on this post... About custom cars and tracks, they would also be held in ./temp and all telling the game to keep the items would do, would move the content from /temp to their respective location in the local filesystem. After that, /temp gets deleted and all the stuff you didn't want goes away. Seems like a fairly good idea to me... |
