Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone @Aprone, watching that vid made me want to reactivate my subscription. I loved CTF. And I think I wasn't too bad at it. It's a shame, I used to want to play it a lot, but could barely ever get a good match together. It was a genius idea adding it to Swamp, an FPS with an already active community.@WintergreenKitty: It's a good idea, I've thought about doing it too. My hesitation has been that I thought the sighted community, if you don't mind me presuming, would snub it. I haven't started broadcasting myself, but I do play games like Tekken 7 online and have started amateurishly making videos, I think I'm on the road to trying it. I think if someone else starts streaming blind games, it might bolster my confidence and help me overcome my anxiety, at least on the genre side. I'll still be socially awkward but there's no cure for that except being hurled into the limelight I guess . I'd happily live stream CTF and missions. Or even be a part of CTF tournies if anyone ever wanted to form a team with me.BTW, I'll check out your Twitch stream. I'm sort of a casual viewer so I'm just looking for the sorts of people I want to watch. Your open-mindedness is a good sign already!

Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy
Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy @Wastelander: Nice one! I never actually considered adding the Game of Thrones music, but it does make it feel more Game of Thrones like! Great work on the other fixes too. Now I understand what those lines in the file were about.. they were the factions' unique locations. And I thought they were things to find when you explore. I allied with everyone just to see all their unique locations And I have noticed other fixes generally too, like communicating with the demon overlord, which is good. I mean I can't convince him to give me more demons, but at least I can try. @Draco: Well actually, the debug menu is useful for some quick tweaks. But for more flexibility you have to get down and dirty with the save files. I started work on a quick WPF app to help me do it after I had some initial wins, but I don't know what most things do quite yet.

Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy @Wastelander: Sure! I hope no one judges me too much for the mod as it's still a work in progress . But I think it's fun. https://www.dropbox.com/s/37sumg8te02qu … s.zip?dl=1It's not fully done yet, I haven't crafted the faction relationships yet and the nobility of the Iron Islands and the North are yet to be done as well. I'm also going to customize the exploration location names. There's a couple of departures from cannan, I ended up starting out as a demon king, so thought Stannis was the one who might be seen as closest to a demon king due to his fanaticism for a foreign God. Granted, you have the ability to draft evil laws, which could be lots of fun, but probably don't suit his character, but I couldn't figure out where to tweak his alignment. So yeah, you're Stannis. Hence why you're on hard difficulty.One of the races was mutants, so I decided to make them the Riverlands and explain the transformation in their backstory.

Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy
Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy @Wastelander: [[wow]], there was a debug cheat for that already!I've been trying to avoid using the cheat menu, partly because up until you posted that list, I didn't know the cheats, but partly because I worry temptation will get the better of me There's some really useful ones there though, even for making sure you get the right kind of start. Thanks!There's still a little more customizability in changing the save files, I've currently got a pretty good Game of Thrones esque setup with the 5 independents as kingdoms with their correct names, leader names, backstories, descriptive types and unit names and made sure all of them were the same race of men, some had the psychoactive men and some were barbarians. I tweaked their growth rates to reflect their environments a little too. The IronBorn, for example, I've handicapped a little with a -5% growth rate, but slightly stronger peasants. I also chose to change the bandit group and mercenaries names and leaders accordingly too. And all in all I've got a pretty well-setup world. It's a fun game, too!But, I'd rather do it in the debug menu if ever they come into there. Or certainly in any custom game setup if ever that feature makes it in. Sorry if it sounds like I'm medalling too much. Also, I have to let you know that I was playing another game of Warsim and I went to have a chat with the Demon Overlord when I was getting a little beat up. I actually asked him "What can I do for the cause?", and he told me to build him some big totems and conquer everything and yada yada. But after that, it was game over. I'm guessing he killed me for being too obsequious or something, but even so it didn't say. I'm not sure if this is a bug, thought you should know though.

Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy
Re: Warsim, text based randomly generated stratogy H. I think I must've corrupted the internal text files somehow when I went looking for how to customize things. A fresh install seems to have fixed it. Nevermind. Sorry, I got curious. I do it to other games too Liking the game so far. I like the open endedness of it. One game you're a hard pushed leader fending off the advances of a fierce rebellion. The next, you're a scheming demonic uprising trying to fend off the forces of the light. In either case, moving from being on the back foot to having some kind of might of your own. I haven't reached a point where the game is too easy yet.I'm sure I'll come up with suggestions later on. The only one I can think of is the ability to name your rival factions and leaders. But then this game seems to have it's own kind of lore. I don't know.In any case, keep up the good work!

In Generals and Red Alert at least. In Red Alert, your ore trucks will go trundling off to the nearest ore patch (or ore mine in later games), fill up and return to base to unload ore, which automagically nets you some lovely credits. It's nice not to have to micromanage it. Until your mine or patch runs dry, or a pesky Terror Drone or similar comes and puts the breaks on that operation. Those Soviets are just plain rude.

Ive already started work on dev 7. The map packs and scripts included are also being worked on by their respective authors. As such, the game doesnt get shipped with any multiplayer map packs, mostly because this has only just gone to map pack creators. Im working on one myself, but I realized I need a few more features to be done first.If you look under the download a map pack option, you should see some map packs that are ready to go. Not all support multiplayer yet. Its up to the map pack author to make it so, if its appropriate.@connor142, that sounds like you both had different settings for your battle log. Under preferences, you can choose whether to read out actions as they happen, o r to list them out in the battle log at the end of a turn. I suspect you and he both have different settings.

In my warehouse missions in my Black October campaign, Ive noticed a recent bug when you drop off crates. On the first drop off, all goes fine.

It is true, all we get IS indeed, silence. All people have to go on are what people who claim to be testers (or sometimes supposed friends of testers) decide to reveal and occasionally what Aprone himself reveals. There are several remedies to this if you chose to do anything about it. * Open up tes ting to the player base as a whole if they chose to do so, knowing that theyre testing an unfinished product. A strategy that has worked well not just for games but for several software products. See this wikipedia article section on open/closed beta for more info.* Open up the application process for becoming a tester to more than whichever tester criteria is currently being used (whether its just highest levels, playing for years and years, Aprones friends, people starting with the letter J, or whatever). Allow normal players to submit themselves as testers too, for Aprones verification. * At least have a list of who the current testers are for people to look at. So that we can not only ask testers if not Aprone if we have any concerns or queries, but can also verify the information we are given by people in the community. Of course, there might be no need to do anything, but thats why theres this perceived lack of progress amongst the general player base. Remember, you see the progress, we dont until its fully progressed.

But I think CAEs idea should help resolve this. Im trying to use these nested ifs to decide where to place a supply crate in a warehouse mission. I want more than a straight up 1 number per area scenario, though, as certain areas are larger and more prone to crates in warehouses than others. SO I want it to be random but weighted.

Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone Im not online enough to witness too much douchbaggery, really. Youll occasionally get people getting a little rowdy for lack of anything better to do. And I think thats the heart of it. Disclaimer: The following is just my opinion and may well be the ramblings of an ill-informed madman. I do hope however that I have correctly identified and explained what I perceive to be the issues. A bit of an essay ahead. Tl;Dr at the endSwamp is on a league of its own when it comes to combining gameplay, emersiveness and an online community. The fact that we have accessible iPhone games is all great and that, and thats where most accessible devs seem to be going for a headlong charge. Probably for profitability reasons - theres still no reasonably ubiquitous Windows desktop app marketplace. The iPhone games though lack community and the raw power that just comes with having more to control it with than a 4 inch touchscreen. And with that being the di rection that developers are flowing, fans of audio games lack choice and Swamp just really doesnt have much in terms of MMO competition IMHO. Some people are trying to do it, theres several new games on this forum that are trying to be the Call of Duty of the blind world, with varying levels of success (Ive not played many of them). So theyre going after gameplay. But community has never been the strong point of PvP FPS games, CoD and other mainstream games in particular are famed for having foul communities. Swamp, being a mostly cooperative game, again wins hands down there against the new and upcoming MMO challengers. There are other games that do community. RS Games and such are the only examples that spring to mind, though I admit Ive not kept abreast of every new audio game out there so there may be better. But theres such a difference in genre there, that it could attract completely different people. So, Swa mp has a pretty good position now. Thats good, right? Well, no, not quite. Some people are playing Swamp day in, day out. Theyve mastered the game to the point where they can solo the hardest missions, have all the latest gear and have seen and done it all. Now what? Some choose to help others, which is admirable. But what when theres no one to help? Theres no reasonable competition as far as an audio gaming MMO of this size, complexity and communal strength (well IMO), so playing something else isnt an appealing option. But they want to be there, to hang out online and see if anything new comes along. Boredom ensues. And boredom causes trouble. I think, at least, this is why some people are getting a little narky. As to injecting some team play back into Swamp, that would be great. Im not sure just outright incentivizing with experience for dragging people along on missions is necessarily the only way though.Heres a few sugges tions I can think of, feature wise that might help. Youve probably all already thought of these, Im just putting them out there in the discussion. * More Defender type missions, where it is almost impossible to solo. Sure, some level 2,000+ players probably could, but Im not sure if theres really anything you can do about them. * Cooperative campaigns: SCS is a great feature and could go far. Cooperative campaigns would allow the community to make its own cooperative adventures. Im starting to see some interesting single player SCS things happening, though most of them feel a bit like experiments. But I think its starting to grow as a feature. Long shot, granted. I dont underestimate the size of this undertaking of course, but that could be a fun and expanding thing for groups to do. Id be happy to try writing one.* Some kind of in-game events where players must work together to defeat impending threats o r doom, or achieve/earn something together. I saw a few before, once, where some raiders were, well, raiding on map 2. This was a 1 off event. Another was the Halloween event where people were scouring all over for pumpkins. I was working with a few others, keeping map 2 checked. We had to work together to find them for mutual gain. Of course, some people piggy-backed, but they probably werent having any fun. Things like this tend to get people involved, maybe it would get the jaded players out of their warehouses too? Okay, Ive talked enough and you probably all hate me for taking up so much space on the page. Aprone, please dont take any of this as an insult, if anything its because this is arguably one of the best of its kind that it has this problem. As for perhaps a new game coming along, as Sneak suggested. Its an idea worthy of thought at least. Though starting a game to get to this size is a daunting prospect. Tl;Dr: Perhaps Swamp as a community is a victim of its own success as a great gameplay and MMO experience, with not enough competition offering all that Swamp can. Theres a few things that could be tried to try to inject some team spirit back into the community and break up the

Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone Okay, firstly a SCS question that may be a bug or a misunderstanding on my part.Im setting a number like so:set var rand=[random/1/10]debug=[rand]if rand2 then if rand5 then radio=Something happensMy understanding is that this should execute only when rand gets set to the numbers 3 or 4. Am I right? This isnt the way its working currently.Also, regarding someone addressing the issue of storage characters and such like. How about a space in the armory on map 5? So you have to go to map 5 to begin with, something not everyones brave enough to do. Then there could be an option on the safe zone menu to store items in the armory. Even if its only 3 or 5 slots each, that could be somewhere to store each players most valuables. Just an idea I had.

Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone I like the idea about randomising the weapons you start with in CTF. It would offset people pooring points into particular weapon classes. It would also make things more interesting in general.I... kind of like the boosts idea. Cautiously anyway. It does mean though that your character then doesnt have a play style so much as run around and play with the boost you get. I mean, sure, we could have everyone have the same stats... but like Aprone said it would be a bit vanilla. At the same time, Ive been against players where 1 or 2 shots from their sport rifles would kill you outright. Which sucks. Maybe... when youre in the holding area, you can spend a set amount of points to set your stats. Maybe once per mission? I dont know. Just a thought. That way, you still get everyone with the same amount of points, but there is variety in the strategies. I think. CTF is a tricky beasty to get right and Aprone may well be tweaking this ve rsions down the line if it remains popular (which I hope it does). Ok, to move on from CTF:Low level warehouse mission rewards are pretty low right now. I just tried a 10 crate with fierce zombies and barely got the same amount as I used to for a 10 crate when there were no dires or amorphouses. I know on one end of the scale youve got guys getting millions of xp and rep in their missions, but on the other end you wont always get that much for a mission unless you throw in deathbringers. Is that the servers thing where it will nerf rewards when a mission type is seeming to be too easy?I also have a SCS request. Could we have an event for when a menu is closed? Preferably one that would also catch skills and armour menus closing too.

Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie FPS by Aprone [[wow]], Aprone, great work! This looks a huge and awesome update. Ive not had much play time in it yet (had to come out as I overwrote my keys file). But I have noticed that when switching between weapons of the same class, theres a slight lag. Say, for example, Im going for my Remington, theres a second or so before it switches guns between the sport rifles. Does this tie up with what you mentioned in the changelog? I love love love the sound of CTF. I do slightly worry about what you say about an art form though in it. Eventually, the power players will develop unbeatable strategies and it will degenerate into who can implement that winning strategy first. I hope that this doesnt become the case and theres room for ingenuity as in other shoot em ups with CTF. Im yet to play one, but I think the strategy Id have gone for youve already mentioned, and I dont wanna be a mere copycat. Guess I ll have to use my brain after all Looking forward to trying out this bad boy. Again, you probably hear it a lot, but keep up the great work. Theres a whole lot of us that appreciate it.

Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone Hi all.A boring carjourney where I chose playing around with Swamp single player over transcribing work related things (what a choice) lead to me experimenting with creating campaigns. Its great fun! I quite enjoyed it. Maybe what Im writing will come to fruition if I keep at it. However, Im having a problem. Well, a couple, which are stopping me from making the sort of single player campaign that would keep me occupied.Firstly, and this may be something Im doing wrong, in spite of what both the change log (3.3) and the campaign guide say, raiders dont appear to be usable in SCS. Which is a shame. I tried to add raiders to my map, as follows. add spot southAreaX1,southAreaY1,southAreaX2,southAreaY2 raider=waveAmountBut no gun toating brigandish raiders appear on my map. Using amorphous also doesnt work. But normal does. Putting this line to see if anything has been added:debug=[total.zombies]Retur ns 0Is this something I did wrong? Or is it a known bug?Secondly, Im using m4 as my map (Im not used to the map maker enough yet). As soon as me and my squad of allies leave the safe zone, if theyre on aggressive. Theyll start shooting at zombies non-stop. Which is good, except these zombies are on the opposite end of the map. They arent hitting anything at that range (understandably). These zombies are well out of range. Is it possible to adjust an allys perception range? Or again, am I doing something wrong?P.S. I know theres a mysterious cabal of people who have all the best campaigns. Ive just never tried getting hold of campaigns until now. What do I have to do to infiltrate them?

Re: SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg
Re: SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg @sid512: I take your point about the economics. Thats been the hardest thing to balance. I might try tweeking the numbers a bit to see if maps can sustain a player for a bit longer. @shuteye, I think he means the use of the word mana, if Im not mistaken. And hes probably right. I just cant think what else to call it right now. Special, maybe? Or countdown?Ok, sure, Ill upload it as a zip file. Thats what I did at first, but people on the SoundRTS mailing list said that they didnt know what to do with it, so I made it into an installer to do it all for them. Heres a link to the zip. Its just got the Blitzkrieg mod in the mods folder and the Allied and German campaigns in the single folder. So you can just go ahead and extract it into your SoundRTS folder. Bare in mind that youll still need version 1.12 alpha 9, though. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/540 … zkrieg.zipI believe something that will help with users getting mods is coming or has come in version alpha 10 that is being developed right now. So fingers crossed you wont need to manually download zip files for much longer. Thanks for your feedback all!

SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg
SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg Hi all, Im not sure if a mod belongs here, but this felt like the best fit for it. Sorry if I was wrong.Following on from the success of the CrazyMod expansion to SoundRTS, Ive decided to try my hand at a total conversion mod as well. The end result was the Blitzkrieg mod. Blitzkrieg, as you might guess, takes place during World War II. As a result, the gameplay might feel a little different to vanilla (unmodified) SoundRTS. Currently, there are 3 sides. The Allies, Germany and the USSR. They should all feel unique but in their own way balanced (if thats not the case, let me know!). This mod requires SoundRTS 1.12 alpha 9. The following link will take you an installer for both SoundRTS 1.12 alpha 9 and Blitzkrieg pre-configured and ready to go. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/540 … taller.exeThe campaigns so far are at a starting level, Im waiting to get feedback before I expand on them and make more missions. There is currently 1 mission each for the Allies and German campaigns. These missions should be good to go and hopefully challenging enough. As for multiplayer, I currently dont have a computer that could function permenantly as a server, but Id be very happy if someone else who did would be happy to host one, if they felt this mod was worth a server running. This is just something Ive been developing in my own time, but I hope you guys like it.

Re: SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg
Re: SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg Yes. Some are official designations and some are coloquial names. I should probably decide for one or the other, really.

Re: SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg
Re: SoundRTS mod: Blitzkrieg @keyIsFull, thats by design, so that you cant go expanding your base beyond what you have. Since its the first mission of the campaign, I thought Id introduce more technology as the campaign goes on. But I dont really explain it anywhere in the introduction, so I could probably do that. Sorry. If it makes you feel any better, the other side cant have workmen either @sid512, already done. Though as you dont build airfields, you call in squads of fighters or bombers from your air command centers or bomber command centers, respectively, who appear for a short amount of time before leaving.

Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone
Re: Swamp, zombie fps by Aprone Not to mention the expensive pricepoint for anything with an apple logo, i.e a Mac to develop it on. Walled gardens and all that. That and controlling it on an iPhone just wouldnt feel right.
