New Mod IDEA: TowerDefence (wc3)

[doomagent13]

After several minutes (or was that seconds), I realized that I was utterly confused.

How do you even run the mod on your own server for Mac? I have a nonIntel so there are many difficulties with even running a server. STILL, how do you run it in Mac?

Roughly the same way you would on any other kind of computer...

[tojimaru]

ok what do i do with the files and wtf is happing flying exploading eggs and what is the point of the tower defense mod anyway?

Have no clue? Get lost.

Disclaimer : This mod is not supposed to be released yet, so please be prepared for bugs and I will not be responsible to whatever happens to your computer/web host.

Steps on how to install the mod.
Installing the mod :
1) Create a folder in ~/Application Data/Tremulous/ called towerdefence ( its a C, not a S).
2) Place the 2 files from my previous post or you can refer below for the link into the /towerdefence folder.
3) Now you can enter any server that runs the mod without downloading it from a source that the server specified.
Running your server with the mod(If you haven't installed the mod, please do so before following this tutorial) :
1) Extract the game.qvm from td.pk3/vm
2) Place the game.qvm in the ~/Application Data/Tremulous/base/vm folder.
3) If you run from the command line(which I'm sure you do), add +fs_game towerdefence somewhere.
Done, now your server will be running the towerdefence mod.

I did everything just like you said but when I go on the humans team, instead of giving me the menu to choose rifle or ckit, it says this surface is unsuitable to build on, and all the buidlings are smoking. When i type /class rifle in the console and go up to the armoury, it says something about a hovel. Why is it like this?

[Divmax]

Smoking turrets : Your missing td.pk3, or the server is only running the qvm, not the actual mod.
The rest I don't know.
The directory should be something like this :
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Tremulous\towerdefence (On XP)

[whitebear]

We would sure need a qvm for this to work. quite hard to have more/less buildings or equipment if there is no qvm... all UI screens will be messed up otherwise.

The UI would be client-side. It'd have to be (auto)downloaded.

[MartinX3]

Don't find the server. 
What is its IP?

[Divmax]

Which one?
Nero's test server is only on when he is testing something.
Mine(A Simple Fun Server) is only on for development testing.

[MartinX3]

Both server.
And the server with the Turret Defence Mod please. 

[tojimaru]

Where is Nero? Did he create the mod yet?...

[Divmax]

He already created the mod, just that its still in alpha stage.

I do not know the reason why you cannot run on your server, give more details. But most likely it is cause you don't have feet.

[MartinX3]

The error is the normal Windows error.

[cyrri]

please use a compressed image format next time, 2.5MB is way too big.

[Amtie]

Heh... bmp.

How can you expect something to work without files it needs (i.e. the 2 pk3s)?

[MartinX3]

ok what do i do with the files and wtf is happing flying exploading eggs and what is the point of the tower defense mod anyway?

I did everything just like you said but when I go on the humans team, instead of giving me the menu to choose rifle or ckit, it says this surface is unsuitable to build on, and all the buidlings are smoking. When i type /class rifle in the console and go up to the armoury, it says something about a hovel. Why is it like this?

This two .pk3's
td.pk3 and ui.pk3

[MartinX3]

Whatis with the moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooood?
 

[_-+|[A]|+-_]

Make a folder called TowerDefence in C:\Documents and Settings\[YourUserName]\Local Settings\Application Data\Tremulous
then edit your tremserver.bat (Right click, then click edit) And add +set fs_game TowerDefence
Run your tremserver.bat connect to your server and it should work.

[MartinX3]

then i get errors when i play on my server with this mod.
I can't join a class, only a team because i get the error message You can't build on this surface.
And when i try to build or use the amoury i get the error message that i must stop blocking a hovel.
It's crazy.
Don't like the mod my NERO QVM?

/Edit:

Found the evil pk3
No errors now.
But my server don't run with the Tower defence Mod.
I had edit the tremulous.bat and put the two files in the folder.
But my server don't run with the mod.

Or are the two files td.pk3 and ui.pk3 only for clients?
Then I need the server files.

/Edit:
Okay.
WAs my wrong.
Wrote fs_game instead of +fs_game.
But it don't work now, too.
In the server console i get the message "fs_game is write protected."
HELP

/Edit:
It works fine. =D

/Edit:
My server runs now Tower Defence.
But no alien waves?
How i get to start the waves?

/Edit:
How to make waypoints?

[Thisguy]

R.I.P

TowerDefence...

Dead now

[MartinX3]

You don't know it. -.-

[MartinX3]

How i can set buildpoints?
Sorry for Doublepost.
I want that see my question.

[cyrri]

use these cvars:
g_humanbuildpoints
g_alienbuildpoints

[MartinX3]

Ups wrote the wrong word.
I mean how to make waypoints.
Sorry.

[Divmax]

Use your blaster and click your middle mouse button, or where ever you binded +button2.

[MartinX3]

Must change the button.
With the middle Mouse button i go to the Vista Windows selection. hehe

[MartinX3]

Î must put the bots manual in the game, or?
And how i start the aliens?
Waypoints are set.

[Divmax]

You must place the bots manually and to start the aliens, they are already moving, you just can't see them. Do !spmodels 1 for the aliens to have the egg model (Warning, the number represents the type and the scale of the model, so just use 1).

[MartinX3]

I saw this now too.
But the turrets don't attack the "eggs".
Why?
I upgrade the rc and the turrets and repaired the turrets but they don't attack.
And the eggs don't attack others.
Only when i touch they.

[Divmax]

Sigh, you need atleast 1 Powerplant for the MOST BASIC turrets to function. Upgrade the turrets and you have to upgrade/build more Powerplants.
