[your face]

Won't download.

[Hendrich]

Why did you put this on a separate thread? Why not rename the one you had reflecting the release where people could see the screen shots? :/

Well, anyways, I'll be sure to check it out later when the download links are fixed. ("404 not found error" btw)

[wireddd]

I supposed I probably should have renamed the old one. I fixed the download links, sorry about that.

[your face]

I actually think it's better with a new topic.

And yey, awesome x2.

[Bissig]

Do I need to extract and copy the game.qvm into the base dir?

[wireddd]

No, the pk3 contains the game.qvm and it will work fine that way.

[CreatureofHell]

I went to the server and tried it. Very fun, but the scores were always 0 so he went to change that.... 

[Bissig]

SST | Grangertown is now running this mod!

Note to wireddd:

Please sort the commands in !help alphabetically.

Also:

Is there any docu on the cvars used? At current, one kill = stage up.

[1LordAnubis]

Wow, this is freaking awesome; the best of tremulous and tremx with an amazing ui with stuff from mgdev and tremfusion.
Thank You wireddd

[wireddd]

yeah, still a few bugs to work out I suppose, i'll get the commands sorted.

[Sap]

Congratulations on the release wire !  Something new at last 

[wireddd]

I just thought I would add that if anyone is interested in helping with trepidus in any capacity please contact me either on my forums(see my sig, or on irc (wireddd on freenode).
even if you are not a programmer I could still use help with the documentation, graphics and of course testing and feedback on features. I am also looking for a modeler to add an animation to the human forcefield md3 so I can make it retract visually like the barricade.

1. What is the cvar for the amount needed to get to next stage called? At current: next stage = 1 kill or 100 creds
2. Is the XAEL really as weak as it seems
3. What is that black 0 displayed on everyones head
4. Scoreboard shows a kills column. But they never go up

1, the way stages are calculated has changed, humans for example is based on credits. here is what the defaults are which should be comparable to 1.1 tremulous
g_humanstage2threshold 4000
g_humanstage2threshold 8000
g_alienstage2threshold 8000
g_alienstage3threshold 16000
2. No it does more damage than the lucifer cannon.
3. The 0 should be a health bar above your teammates head, teamoverlay needs to be set to 1 or the server will not send updates to the player status,
4. The blank scoreboard is because I forgot to remove some of the old warmup code. turning off countdowns will take care of the problem.
g_dowarmup 0
g_warmup 0

[Bissig]

Thank you for your answers.

Someone told me the 0's can also be seen on aliens heads f.e. the invisible basi, which of course gives its position away.

[infestor1]

Where do I put it?

Do I put it in my base folder? or in my vm folder?

or do I put it where the tremulous app is installed?

[Bissig]

You make a new directory in the trem folder so it does show up where the base folder shows up. Then you put both pk3 in there and specify a new fs_game name at server start f.e. "trepidus.

How do I specify the new fs_game name?

Do i have to edit the server.cfg?

bump for new release.

new buildable status overlay:


new forcefield:

[BigGamer95]

good job, it's realy good ^^

[Archangel]

lookin' good wire I played a few games of this on some Aussie server and the only problem was I kept using what I know best from 1.1. Other than that I had a lot of fun playing it, the force fields are pretty useful.

[CreatureofHell]

the new human health overlay looks great!

[rotacak]

It contain pretty xael bullets or ugly xael bullets? Pretty = green comet with trail. Ugly = green ugliest version of luci cannon.

[wireddd]

the new human health overlay looks great!

Yeah Genki did a great job on that.

[infestor1]

isn't this the same as tremx?

[Bissig]

isn't this the same as tremx?

It is a mixup between mgdev features and tremx features.

[Demolution]

isn't this the same as tremx?

Why do you keep asking questions which have obvious answers A FEW REPLIES BACK.
