106th Infantry. The guys who played a large part in the Battle of the Bulge.

This looks pretty interesting indeed. The last time they got flamethrowers to work the flame textures were 2d and there wasn't any sound. If they can bind that flame to the player and have it cause damage like they did before, then the ball will be rolling with this. But as everyone has said, everyone and their brother would be using this new weapon. A script should be made to control the number of them used per team.

It's a spawned weapon. Just have to stop the respawn. We have sound, but need some work on it. Still needs work on damage and spread. Graphic effects are outstanding. It's easy to add to map and easy to adjust it's power. It would be nice if hitting the tank caused a nice explosion, but I don't think that will be happening.

MPowell1944 · 02-16-2003, 03:13 PM

Balr, couldn't you create like a trigger_multiple around the tank(s) and have it take damage and cause an explosion?

Balr14 · 02-16-2003, 08:55 PM

I don't think a trigger will follow the player. Might work based on hit-zone.

The flamethrower does cause a major hit to framerates, but we are working on fixing that. It doesn't effect gameplay too much when there aren't a lot of models present, like trees. But, it is super fun. Damage and spread are perfect. It doesn't seem to have much impact on weapons balance, except for the shotgun. Go up against the flamer with a shotgun and you are going to lose.

There will be a link posted on TMT where you can DL a test version of the Pacific Atoll map with the flamer as soon as we get the framerate fixes made... tomorrow or Wednesday nite.

Sorry you feel that way... TMT is where most of the mappers and modders are, though.

Would like to see knives as well, but we don't have enough info about the model bone and animation systems to do that yet. EA didn't tell us that.
