Title: Server Help
Post by: Mr_Motley on September 14, 2015, 07:34:29 am
First off Hello Sorry if im posting in the wrong forms
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This form is about modding a server
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 There could be some scripting involved
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been working on my server off and on for a long time. and now im ready to tweak it to make it officially the server i want..

I want to be able to have
custom modules
weapon.dat
Gta3.img
and audio files

Im trying to enforce a server function to where its first person, and alter the weapon data to bring the gun up to sight... still need to find ways to upload modifications due to i want to modify the police radio files to be something freaking creepy and that plays on foot durring the server(not police related at all)i dont know if thats what it takes to make that happen...

Kinda going for a Doom 3 Resurrection of Evil Feel. The server is still in the works, and is still in the works to be tottaly re changed.. The server will be called "Seek And Destroy".

Ive been modifying the weapon data to try to get blood on walls effect and such but that will just take time and time and fails!!.. The Main thing is can i have the weapon.dat forced to other players when they join that forces these settings?

They see what i intended the server to be? also i want to alter the pedestrians in a 3ds tool if possible and make monsters and alter the speed of certain pedestrians some run like mast gorillas etc ...

 !!but!! i don't know what kind of support and capability i have. i want an abnormal server. not the same ol server something different..

Its a lot of moderating But that's want i am best at.. I know there is not much support in asi so there will be a harder battle and a lot of cutting and programming capability's . I just really need to know the support for what im able to do and how to upload these file and force it onto the server..

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE DONT BE MEAN JUST LOOKING FOR POSITIVE FEEDBACK..

You can load custom modules on server side only (see http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/LUWiki/Modules (http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/LUWiki/Modules)).

Custom weapons.dat was implemented, but it doesn't work (see issue #4 http://forum.liberty-unleashed.co.uk/index.php/topic,2076.0.html (http://forum.liberty-unleashed.co.uk/index.php/topic,2076.0.html)).

Sadly, there's no possibility to change models or audio files.

That's really disappointing.. that really cuts my server down a lot.. basically to nothing.... i will have to study up read up on the forum... i was hoping to be able to create .ini files to force darkness and create a flashlight weapon and make the light texture for the flashlight.. but i think i can modify the weather data to change the quality of the sky instead...(darkness) seagulls flying instead skulls on fire. just really disappointed... i will read on that now before i go i want to quote is there any pics showing how the folder directory should look.


Thanks Stoku for responding to my post so fast

I'm gonna give you my two cents, I won't be mean just going to tell you what it can be done and what not, from my point of view as a nub in scripting  :P

Im trying to enforce a server function to where its first person, and alter the weapon data to bring the gun up to sight...
Maybe possible with a combo of onClientRender (http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/LUWiki/Squirrel/Client/Events/Misc/onClientRender) event and SetCameraMatrix (http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/LUWiki/Squirrel/Client/Functions/Camera/SetCameraMatrix) function

i want to modify the police radio files to be something freaking creepy and that plays on foot durring the server(not police related at all)
You can't modify police radio itself, but you can always load a custom sound and make it playable when the player is on foot

That's all the doable stuff I can see. Most of the things you mentioned can be done as a mod to download and to play, but can't be loaded in a server. blood effects belong to particle.txd I guess (not sure), sky colors and stuff like that, timecyc.dat and ped models, inside gta3.img, and all those files can't be placed in a server, nor can't them be downloaded automatically by joining a server.

Thanks Theremin .

This is a second post if needed ill create a new post to be recognized.

I need server help. i want to create an XP server and ditch the cash system.
°beginning XP users only allows certain car spawn and weapon pickups 
°possibility to have no rights to enter certain cars until you reach a certain XP for those special cars.
°during levels of XP you will unlock certain weapons at ammunition , No need to hunt across the map(eventually the map will have hidden secrete weapon locations).
°1 minute in the dodo equals 10 XP points each minute.(probably hard to script in
lu)But thats a plan
°Headshot equals a certain amount.
°Each rank has a level word due to big scripting i plan on using the same rank from story mode
°The server will be a free server until missions can be scripted. cash will be used to unlock spraying of police cars bust players . unlock specialty Golden Accounts for a certain amount of time(adds an inside mission to game-play)  ,
°goto player but maybe in 40 cars distance away in .
°hide on map
°i plan on trying to script where you can only run like in story mode. After Gold Accounts you can run without banging up your keyboard XD .



There's going to be a lot and I debated to see if there is anyone willing to want to help . I plan on making a server to bring people back to liberty unleashed. (that is the game plan) server hosting will be in North America . There will really be no banning. mainly cmd spawn killing and frezzing informing the player not to hack if all fails these players will be Banned when im not in the server. and on return unban to re monitor these players.

°Another Plan, i plan use Cain and Abel to label who is who (Save There IP in an text document) to possibly see whos ban evaded.

Glad to see lu has a kick option compared to multiplayer a decade ago needing an ip stressor/ms dos attacks .WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Why no permanet ban?

Liberty Unleashed has gotten small over the years and a lot has come down to banning and players giving up. i plan on preventing that. Unless It seriously has to come down to banning a player which ill have cain and abel to dettect the same ips returning back in the server. 

I could really use a team of helpers that are at least okay in scripting and can help me make this a very good server.

-HENCE all of the servers are awesome servers not saying they are not. but the same thing gets old after a while.and something new will help players to swap around in servers
