TeamLMS,

[bambi]

Hi,

I finally managed to hack a Team Last Man Standing mod (thanks in advance to Veronica, hejhuka, guy named riever, and clyzm). However, it is very buggy as in players move and look very laggy. I'm worried that its because I didn't extend MTL. Maybe because I'm hosting on wifi? ?

How can I extend the MTLTeam class? Do I have to decompile DXMTL152b1 and include it in the mod?

Thanks for your help

Ok.

So I tried to expand miniMTL224, Dejavu's popular mod, and it failed:

--------------------TeamLMS--------------------
Analyzing...
Parsing MTLPlayer
C:\DeusExMini\DXMTL152b1\Classes\MTLPlayer.uc(3) : Error, Unexpected 'This'
Failed due to errors.

I don't know what is wrong but I imagine it has something to do with DXMTL protection. NOBODY!!! HELP ME!!!!

k thnx

There is a reason WHY it is his popular mod. This is why he protected it.

I don't know what you're trying to say Aidan, but anyway, you'll need a package called DXMTLDummy.u, it's around on MMCity's source code if you got it.

All you need to do is put DXMTLDummy's editpackage line above your modification's editpackage line. Next it'll compile.. but don't be happy yet. it's a dummy package. You need it to be on DXMTL152b1 right.

So just get an hex editor, I recommend this:

Open your package, whatever.u, search for DXMTLDummy, replace that Dummy line with 152b1 LETTER BY LETTER. Don't use replace tools, find it and replace it.
..then just save your U package.. and it's extended to DXMTL152b1.

lol bringing out the hex editor. that's drastic

Thanks for the help, I will try this out asap. And hopefully, I'll be able to use the best of deja's mod and dxmtl and see if teamlms can be a great mod.

I'll release it too (its not really my code, although I did write almost 4 lines of original code to get teh game to actually work)

Good luck, do inform me if you experience any further problems.

It still has problems compiling.

I'm expanding miniMTLTeam from Dejas mod but I think that expands from DXMTL152b1.

The error message is still the same;

Hmm.. I suppose you have DXMTL152b1 on your EditPackages line. Remove it.. only have DXMTLDummy on your EditPackages lines.

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

What bollocks are you talking there DJ.. what about using the MTL extender??

You compile the mod with DXMTLDummy, just as said and then you process your compiled mod with the MTLExtender.
That programm changes the package link to MTL152b1 and also the used non-readable variables.

[~DJ~]

Uuuuh...... Iuno what's MTLExtender you're talking about!
This is the only thing I came..

and... oh.. try this instead too..

I suppose that's not MTLExtender you're talking about because the thing you said sounds more like a tool.

[~ô¿ô~Nobody~]

The thing on your link was supposed to replace the MTLExtender but ucc decided to behave silly by using the Script-Text entries of the classes as reference instead of loading the binary code.
Due to that, my "fixed" package can just be used to load maps that contains mods, which base in MTL.
DXAG or DXSG would be such an example.


Weird.. for some reason I cannot find the MTLExtender here on the forum.. nor on the web site.
I'll upload it then..

[~DJ~]

Yeah I know about this little program I think, heard it before. Can't find it ever.
