One day I had a prety simple idea, and thanks to the flexibility of Nexuiz, I could "mod" my own mutator too Very simple, I did not have to code anything, but the result is pretty fun I tell ya

What is Enstagib?

Enstagib is "electro-instagib". You only own two weapons: the laser (fro trickjumping), and the Electro. The laser is untouched, but the electro is modified a bit

Overall:
You can't pickup any health, items, or weapons, all are disabled. But you won'T need any of them either, couse you have the electro @ spawn, with infinite ammo. Selfdamage is removed too, and you have a 3 seconds spawn protection.

Primary fire:
The primary fire's damage is very big, it instantly gibs. The speed of the projectile is a bit faster too, and the splash damage area is larger too. Not much, but you can notice it

Secondary fire:
The secondary fire delivers no damage at all, but it became very fast and strong. Now you use the secondary fire to kick your opponents, to bounce them throughout the map. Refire time is a bit longer (not much, but not plain nexuiz 2.0), but the speed of the projectile is realy fast.

Combo: The combo serves the same as the secondary ire, but the kickback force depends how much plasma balls you can detonate at once.

Installation:
Dl the zip file, and then extract it into your Nexuiz folder. To start the game with enstagib, start nexuiz with

Code: Select all

-game enstagib

Hf playing my little mod

Sounds like this could be a ROFFLECOPTER fest

I tried it out, well, a bit too easy but nice. Maybe more fun if not played against robots.

Cool is how easy this mod can be started

Well, I know this is not really the right place here to ask for but I'm too stupid to create a minstagib game for playing inside the LAN in here with some colleagues. This however would be very suitable while our internet connection is sucking again.

So I want to ask for somebody to create a zip file to be installed just like C.Brutail's enstagib one, for configuration noobs like I am, would be so nice

the first way is to create a server after having selected minstagib in the global game options in the MENU urmel

otherwise, create a normal server, then a simple :

Code: Select all

set g_minstagib 1


will work, but you'll have to change map to make the items disappear...

XD

OMGZ!!! Almost rip-off of my eGib! Do something like this:

electro primary damage: 20
electro primary refire: 0
level gravity: 500
jump height: 400
player max speed: 500
max air speed: 1000

needless to say its only fun on big maps. dont try this on basement with 20 bots and fog...
but i figured people could just tune it easily, so no need for a mod.
WE NEED MORE SERVERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i've set up a batserver with enstagib

but i've set g_balance_selfdamagepercent to 0.000001
cause i can't use laserjump.

Played and enjoyed it. Known issues so far:
- invulnerability too long,
- too "easy", should be either more like Rocket Arena or Minstagib
(slower projectile and lesser damage OR faster, more precise projectile and Minsta ammo)
- secondary useless, either a "mass destruction blob" or replace with laser

dunno about 2.0 but you could make it available from the mod menu. then you can add several mod modes. id have to check that.

Thx to the relies, and thanx for pointing out the laser-jump thing

I don't want ammo for this, only pure insta-rocket like playing.

I thiink the secondary is useless becouse the bots don't jump. I found that the push thing only realy works is the player is not standing on the ground.

@ 4m: sorry for the plagiary

Tried it once, all i can say sofar in the spawninvunra is very enoying. otehr then that its fun. maybe include g_throughfloor 0. the humongus dammage couses a rather large amount of random kills through waals/floors on some maps.

iirc damage throughfloor is off Gotta dig the "code"
it's 0, so I dunno how you achieved them

No idea, i played it on an internet server. maybe the admin turned it back on.

yes, i like g_throughfloor
i've turned it on

UPDATE

I've played a bit on an internet server, so I made some modifications:

spawnprotect is now only one second. I'd rather have spawnprotection, I don't like respawn frags.
Fullbright players are default on
Secondary refire time is now less, vanilla nexuiz 2.0

How to insall:
delete your old enstagiub folder
download and extract the pk3 from the zip into your nexuiz folder:

UPDATE UPDATE!!!

I have now Enstagib ver. 3.0, I can say this is the rc.

Things changed:

fetch the zip from here:

How to install:
1.:delete your old enstagib folder

3.:start nexuiz with

Code: Select all

New Ebomb skin:


The new electro skin:


The new electro trail:


The new explosion:


Hf playing Enstagib!

seems interesting...

what about a pk3 for "new" electro style...

http://www.free-fps.com/download/redelectro.pk3

everyone can use it without launghing nexuiz with -game enstagib
and can join enstagib server

It was my fault, I have linked the old pk3, the current version is:

http://av43.uw.hu/nexuiz/enstagib3.zip

Is it possible to change the game type to enstagib on a running server with something like:

Code: Select all

set g_enstagib 1

?

This would be useful if you are running a multimod server.

not atm, becouse enstagib is not "builtin" the main nexuiz progs.dat

MONSTER LASER!!! Nice colors! But either make less damage or more self damage.

Or is it possible to change the mod so you can start an enstagib game (./nexuiz-blah-blah -game enstagib) and then do something like:
set g_enstagib 0
so that the mod reverts back to normal mode?

sure it is possible however, you won't get back normal electro skin and ebomb nor effects

Find default.cfg in your main nexuiz pack. (dataxyz.pk3 that is).
extract it to somewhere
rename it to vanilla.cfg
copy vanilla.cfg into enstagib folder
when you want to play vanilla game, simply type in the console:

Code: Select all

exec vanilla.cfg

However, it will restore all settings to default (graphics, playername etc.), so use it visely! Better to edit the vanilla cfg before using it, by removing unvanted lines.

i needed a mirror and thought i might aswell give you the link. escalator now stairs. sorry for convenience.

Less damage? its supoased to be Elecrto minstgib.. Selfdamage however could be interesting. right now its cahos with more then 2-3 playres.

i ment the damage radius. it should be more precise.

Not fun that way for not experienced users. Btw. the damage radius is not bigger then the rocket's.
I tried to play with selfdamage, but no fun that way. Too much suicides.

Problem with no selfdamg and this mutch radial firepower is the cahos it brings. Maybe its just me, but i do like a bit oa a challange when i play

Some stuff you can work with : http://www.filefactory.com/file/ad039b/

Simply extract ghost4m + tmod into "...nexuiz \ data" and choose the mods from the game menu.
It doesnt work propperly in 2.0 because its an old build.

Qcc2 is just for creating mods.

The electro looks quite nice in red. And the new projectile effect is also sexy but might be too much with several people fireing. Have to try it later
Are the combo effects yellow or red?

bum.. im back
tried enstagib on public server and must agree with 4m, this mod needs some selfdamage and (altough i normally LOVE damage thru floor) g_throughfloor=0, as is now is funny as hell but getting boring after few minutes, too easy..

but hey, nice work
