Nexuiz:Rocket Arena

[HumanSubhuman]

Anyone want to help me do a quick rocket arena mod for nexuiz? All it would take is some really basic game type coding, a few new graphics, mabye a cool new interfase/menu for the gametype, and maps. The graphics would just be some icons and simple "billboard" textures that say stuff like "rocket arena nexuiz!" and stuff like that. I don't really no anything about interfase creation so I won't say anything and sound stupid. I can map and there's also plenty of mappers around that would help.

If anyone wants to help just drop me a line, eli(at)tangibledevelopment.com. I have a site for tangible which is currently working on an other game but the site is currently under re-construction. If a few people want to do some quick helping with this I'll just set up a small section of that site for the mod.

Thanks,

Isn't Rocket Arena allready included as a game type?
So all you would need is new maps, isn't it?

Rocket Arena is there but it's only a game with RL only and unlimited rockets, none of that funny gametype thing. I like it as it is really.

A full rocket arena gametype has specialized maps and usually some cool stuff like wall running, double jumping and a lot more air control then the usual game, sometimes some cool new power ups to, RAQIII is a good example.

Some specialized maps and some menu changes can be a very big part in making such a mod. I think the code changes to create that gamemode are still the easiest thing.
But as far i know RocketArena for Quake3 it was more or less a LastMan (Team) Standing version without self damage.. Guess i played only some of the very early versions

Rocket arena seems to differ between games. UT200x offers an 'Arena' mutator that limits players to one predefined weapon. Rocket arena is just setting that weapon to RL. Redeemer arena is with the redeemer and is OTT.

I quite like Nexuiz's rocket arena mode. You can set it up manually though by setting players to start with RL only and not to use pickups or ammo.

Why not contact the offical RA team and get them to help with the Nexuiz RA port ?

Sorry about being noobish but There's a Redeemer in Nexuiz?
