for humans
you can spawn using "/class classname" command
classnames are
grenade, mgturret, abuild, abuildupg, level0, level1, level1upg, level2, level2upg, level3, level3upg, level4
and any human weapon name

for aliens
you can spawn as higher class
for example "/class level3" for goon

also any player can wallwalk and all buildables can be built on walls and ceiling

Okay this is a serious question and I'm really curious wht this mod is about..

So we can spawn as a grenade and experience the heat of the battle directly as we're thrown into the alien's base ?

Plague Bringer · « **Reply #2 on:** April 10, 2007, 12:29:59 pm »

Play it.

You can spawn as any alien class, you can spawn with any human weapon (-grenade), mgturret (broken), tesla, lockblob (you shoot them), and hive.

Play it.

That sounds pretty awesome, how do I get hold of this mod, is it running on any servers?

benmachines mod is not benmachines server! He didnt even know about it until later on he doesnt have a server for it.

+ im making a server for it he said i can

and again this mod is awsome but still very imcomplete, still in expermental stage

Good Luck Ben :

and dodo isnt benmachines mod ur server?

Plague Bringer · « **Reply #11 on:** April 10, 2007, 11:33:21 pm »

benmachines insanity is Ben's server. It'll host the latest version whenever it's up. Benmachine's Mod is just a random server running his mod and then compaining about "ABUSE" while trying to play a "normal" game.

basically, this mod is not for serious games. it's just for having a fun TK-fest.

I totally agree with you (QFT)! There are no limitations on joining a team so mostly all the players are joining the human side. Sometimes there are no aliens! And when you choose aliens, you'll get PWND

So this is a message to all the players there who complain about TKing:
This mod is for fun, and for who has the best skill to survive the machinegunners. Don't kick people who TK for fun because this mod is made for it!

Wait aren't you the one who came in there and started shooting friendly buildings and teammates with a turret and kept getting kicked? o.0

I think crack is bad.
Ganja is something that will do but crack is deadly.

my mod has a thread and I didn't even have to make it!

^_^

Anyway, the next release has been somewhat delayed by my accidental wiping of one of my hard drives (lol) but promised features include a fixed repeat rate on the mgturret, fixed mdriver kill messages, and spawning with battlesuits. Plus, if I can work it out, integration of a couple of UI icons durand was nice enough to make for me.

Plague Bringer is right, my server is called:
benmachine's insanity server
although because the server resources are pretty weak I only ever turn it on to distribute a new version or test something.

If anyone's interested, the reason I make this mod is purely to learn about the code of Tremulous by fiddling with things to see what they do. My intention is to eventually make, at least in parallel to this mod, a "serious" mod using some of the expertise I hope to develop in making this all work. One idea I have is looking into making proper wallturrets, buidable with jetpacks (since wallwalking humans are, in a serious context, impossible without serious and far-reaching modification of the game engine - look at http://v1.risujin.org/tremulous/#r4 for a somewhat more detailed explanation of why only cubic aliens can wallwalk), another is the long-awaited alien vs. alien game (although the fact that only grangers can hit a dretch without killing it is certainly going to make that an interesting proposition).

Yes I do remember you - iirc you kept asking me about setting up a server but I kept getting distracted and never finished - sorry about that.
The thing about making a benmachine's mod server is that, because it has been backported, tjw's tremded does not work with it. Whether backporting is necessary and what I need to do to make the qvm work with the usual tremded have not been my priorities, to be honest, and for my server I use a tremded I compiled myself (I can't compile for windows, so you're on your own there). My advice is as follows: either a) wait until I've finished my current projects and can get to work on making it easier to run or b) ask darkdodo how he did it.
In summary: the usual methods of server running won't work, so ask darkdodo or wait a few days.

KobraKaine · « **Reply #21 on:** April 13, 2007, 05:04:59 pm »

I'd just like to throw out a little support for benmachine's mod. I thought it was pretty inventive, and fun to use, even if it takes awhile to figure out how to use it all.

ShadowNinjaDudeMan · « **Reply #22 on:** April 13, 2007, 05:10:24 pm »

Now, replace the painsaw model with dretch, perhaps with your hands shoved up their asses, add a boxing animation and bingo.

f0rqu3 · « **Reply #23 on:** April 30, 2007, 11:43:47 pm »

updated now all classes can have any weapon
join humans
/class level0 chaingun
a dretch with chaingun

you can also decon players if you have granger weapon(abuild) or construction kit (ckit)

benmachine · « **Reply #25 on:** May 04, 2007, 09:22:35 pm »

Hi guys, just a brief request for some media I can't easily create myself:
Icons for hive and lockblob weapons
HUDs: alien hud needs to be modified to properly show clips and ammo, human hud needs a wallwalking display. I hacked a ammo count into the alien HUD, but it's ugly and has no clip count.
The only repayment I can offer is inclusion in !info credits

Survivor · « **Reply #26 on:** May 04, 2007, 10:18:30 pm »

Made some simple icons for hive and lockblob. Pm me an e-mail addy or other contact info.

I didnt know you were into gfx
he is mostly on irc where you can talk

dodo1122 · « **Reply #28 on:** May 06, 2007, 05:25:02 pm »

version 0017 out.
Now you can build lcannon turrets, flamer turrets, prifle turrets and grenade turrets. Also prifle has a secondary attack, which heals (like the love relic in relics mod). Also, a lot of bugs were fixed, although some of them are fixed on mac os x compilations only.
