Deus Ex Alpha

I know how to add augmentation effects that modify the display onscreen (Targeting and Vision Enhancement), but otherwise, i have no idea how to code any other augmentation effects into a pickup...

I would like to have an item that uses the Enviromental Resistance, EMP Shield, Ballistic Shield and Energy Shield augs coded in it. Could somebody give the coding to do this

If you really know how to do the first 2, then you can do the others. It's the same principle. If you want help, don't lie.

Mainman, Allan doesnt lie. He's one of the nicest guys on DX. So hush.

I dont like this allan guy

Then we all must hate him. Based on the knowledge that you have he must be a bumboi!!

I don't really like you. You seem to camp on these forums.

MainMan, did you even look at the augmentations? I guess not. The code for targeting and vision is directly in the Aug Classes. Ballistic etc. must be found in the Player classes, this case DeusExPlayer.uc. This is pretty hard I think, and next time MainMan, think before you post.

Owned. Allans maps are great, can't think of any frag maps he's done, but his fun maps are awesome.

Yeah you're right, sorry, my bad. They all affect takedamage(), so they are called through deusexPlayer.

Thanks for that *Tries editing DeusExRootWindow to DeusExPlayer in the coding, to see if this has any effect.*

Edit: Nope, that has no effect...

Here's the code, it has the V.E and Target aug on it, but i wanted to make another class with the augs on i mentioned in the first post. How much of this would i need to change to accomodate the augs i wanted?

Code: Select all

Didn't GODZ make a Vison Enhancement sniper rifle? Maybe they could help...

1. Not GODZ, but Nobody made it.
2. This is the code for a sniper rifle with Vision Scope:

Code: Select all

function ScopeOn()
{
   if (bHasScope && !bZoomed && (Owner != None) && Owner.IsA('DeusExPlayer'))
   {
      
      bZoomed = True;
      RefreshScopeDisplay(DeusExPlayer(Owner), False, bZoomed);
   }
}

function ScopeOff()
{
   if (bHasScope && bZoomed && (Owner != None) && Owner.IsA('DeusExPlayer'))
   {
      bZoomed = False;
            RefreshScopeDisplay(DeusExPlayer(Owner), False, bZoomed);
         }
}


simulated function RefreshScopeDisplay(DeusExPlayer player, bool bInstant, bool bScopeOn)
{
  if (bScopeOn && (Player !=None))
{
DeusExRootWindow(Player.RootWindow).ScopeView.ActivateView(ScopeFOV, False, bInstant);
DeusExRootWindow(Player.RootWindow).HUD.AugDisplay.bVisionActive = True;
DeusExRootWindow(Player.RootWindow).HUD.AugDisplay.VisionLevel = 3;
DeusExRootWindow(Player.RootWindow).HUD.AugDisplay.VisionLevelValue = 28800;
}
 else if (!bScopeOn)
{
DeusExRootWindow(Player.RootWindow).ScopeView.DeActivateView();
DeusExRootWindow(Player.RootWindow).HUD.AugDisplay.bVisionActive = False;
  }
}


I borrowed the code for the Vision Enhancement and Targeting from a post here for a similar weapon. Apparently, you need to code the other augs in differently to these 2...

I also made a rifle like that with targeting aug too, so it's the same, but different

Correct, well, except Aggresive Defense System, but the rest is mainly placed in the player class. And it's not really easy to get them working into an item. Even BallisticArmor is in PlayerClass.

Oh, i wondered why it had no coding in adaptive armour and the like...

*Waits for some crackpot looney who is brilliant at coding to come and fix this, or tell me it's not worth the while...*

Personally, i think the easiest way (although it's still not that easy) would be to make a custom player class, with a modified TakeDamage().

Nah, i think i'll leave it. Seems too much bother really...

New playerclass requires new gametype, if you want to do that, you need the gametype to extend DXMTL152b1. If you try that, your UCC.exe crashes.

Well, would there be any way to code an item to have the effects of the augs in the top post, (Damage Reduction ones), without actually having to make references to the augs and it turning into a complicated mess?

I think not, but I'm not that experienced.

Wo when did I become a rebel? I ahve nothin agaist many people Its just im an outcast

If you're going to say you don't like someone, i suggest next time you give reasons.

And the fact that Allan's post had no offensive material in it shows that you just 'don't like him' for no reason.

I luv eric's mum.
