I've worked more on this than on my last mod, hopefully that shows. I pray it doesn't suck and so far feedback has been positive.

This is a pk3 that you stick in your tremulous 'base' folder that replaces certain visuals. It only works on servers that allow third-party modifications (unpure servers). For now I'm just putting it up for download.

Download Link

Things Changed Since Last Version

Certain weapons have glowing spots, battlesuit's eye also glows
Weapons and buildables use ShinyTrem shaders
Human camouflage is more 'urban'
Luci is more badass :P
Jetpack is 50% quieter
shotgun has a pump-action sound after each shot
Battlesuit and Tyrant view height increased like in 1.2
Flamer reduced to 30% of its original opacity
Goon snipe has a splash effect (not damage, just visual)
ATCS has cleaner textures, the gigantic 2d bolts were removed
Chunks fly out of aliens when you shoot them
Ckits have new high-resolution textures (shinytrem, mgdev)
A few new and modified particle systems

Instructions
Put the .pk3 file in your tremulous base folder.

+1, suhweet win.

@duck, yes, it automatically overwrites.

Evoc · « **Reply #3 on:** October 30, 2008, 04:42:07 am »

THIS. IS. AWEEEESSSSOOMMMMEEEE.

EDIT: However, the ATCS textures remain the same.

The MD is hot. Too bad I don't draw weapons..

Great job, Superpie! Looks just out of this world!

I hope ill find some time to take a closer look at all this fancy visual effects!

+1 Superpie! keep on going

i like the battlesuit pic the best. <3

rotacak · « **Reply #7 on:** October 30, 2008, 04:18:27 pm »

Good work. Chainguns sound is scary. I only don't like new BS and human textures. Isn't better this?: http://www2.udec.cl/~alejandrosoto/shot0004.jpg
And that jetpack sound should be default, jetpack should be annoying

BTW, why is always ckit texture slightly moved to right side?

This mod can be used on R Unlimited CZ server.

Because why have green camo on atcs?

rotacak · « **Reply #9 on:** October 30, 2008, 05:39:05 pm »

I have one problem. That "Battlesuit and Tyrant view height increased like in 1.2" does not work for me. Height view is same, but if I want hit humans head with tyrant, then I must look at his legs

Also tyrant dead bodyes are often 1 meter above floor. Can I somewhat fix that or reset it to standard 1.1 height?

Superpie · « **Reply #10 on:** October 30, 2008, 09:52:53 pm »

Rotacak: I like the grey camo better ^^. And about the view heights, thank you for telling me this, I will try to reproduce and fix the issue.

rotacak · « **Reply #11 on:** November 01, 2008, 12:13:39 am »

That view height bug seem work even when player haven't this mod. We had to delete this mod from server, because players can't hit enemy with tyrant. There was situations like tyrant VS naked not moving human, and human wins.

Superpie · « **Reply #12 on:** November 01, 2008, 01:08:36 am »

So was the bug server-side or was it something my pk3 was causing? I have not been able to reproduce it thus far.

Colynn' · « **Reply #13 on:** November 01, 2008, 01:12:32 am »

Hello,
Damn, this is wonderfull! I love the new massdriver! (I play a lot on unpure servers, thanks thanks thanks!)
I wish you will continue Superpie!

I don't know how it work, but:

1) I uploaded mod to server, views are same, but I can't hit anything with tyrant.
2) I deleted mod, leaved it only on server, but still can't hit anything. And not even me. Is possible that mod somewhat using server?
3) Deleted from server and all is back to normal now.

You have views higher?

Amanieu · « **Reply #15 on:** November 01, 2008, 02:27:25 am »

Yes, the view changes will also affect the server. Superpie should remove that.

Superpie · « **Reply #16 on:** November 01, 2008, 03:32:17 am »

It has been fixed in one of the download links, it's very obvious which one if you look. Thank you for your input everyone

Odin · « **Reply #17 on:** November 01, 2008, 04:01:25 am »

Why didn't you use the ShinyTrem shaders for player models? That is basically the most likely place you'll see the effects. All you have to do is use the 'human.shader', 'alien.shader', 'level2.shader', and 'jetpack.shader' from ShinyTrem.

mooseberry · « **Reply #18 on:** November 01, 2008, 04:06:22 am »

This is a fun mod. :O

This mod wins.

Epic win.

Amanieu · « **Reply #22 on:** November 12, 2008, 08:47:13 am »

I'm going to be committing some of this stuff along with ShinyTrem to Tremfusion, but I just want to know what you have changed in the particle effects.

rotacak · « **Reply #23 on:** November 21, 2008, 04:30:54 pm »

Superpie: Can I ask were I can change that flamer and human base explosion opacity to default?

Sure, one can only read the forum by logging in. Also, one can never be busy in RL or somewhere else.

Superpie, I know we never get along for one reason or another, but I admire and appreciate your work. Good job, and I'm glad you stick around on trem.
