Re: New toy 'Pallas'

I got to test it out a bit. Much better than the first one. The deployed primary fire can shoot across the map now. The SPMA fire can hit inside the nodes with a little luck. The main problem with SPMA fire on Mass Destruction is the ceiling is too low. The the trajectory arc has but three determini...

Re: New toy 'Pallas'

Hey one thing, can you add a version number to the Vehicle name? eg. VehicleNameString="Mobreaker 1.0" So maybe for the beta versions something like "Pallas 0.8" This way as you add new versions we know what we are getting. It helps too in the editor so I can keep track of what'...

Re: New toy 'Pallas'

Thanks for putting it on the server and thanks for the feedback! I already found a few issues myself. The range of the deployed primary fire (not SPMA mode) is artificially reduced and will always end after 2 seconds. I never noticed during testing because I was testing on Red Planet but Mass Destru...

Re: New toy 'Pallas'

It will definitely break some maps. Well, I don't know if break is the right word but the vehicle would become the primary target for sure. On most maps the nodes are strategically placed so you cannot hit them from far. SPMA goes around that. Network play is untested. I believe I have all the repli...

Disabling the GPU is still the best bet. The editor has no lag, not even in 3D view.
I don't seem to have an option to disable just the GPU, only the Adapter...
Yep that's right. In Device Manager under Display Adapters you can disable the nvidia adapter. Easier than going into safe mode.

Re: captainsnarf

I went through nVidia control panel and set all my settings the same as you had. Sadly the problem remains.

Disabling the GPU is still the best bet. The editor has no lag, not even in 3D view.

New toy 'Pallas'

I've been working on a new vehicle :) I borrowed some inspiration from PercesMAS (artillery levi) and PPC Tank to come up with the 'Pallas' vehicle. Why Pallas? In Greek mythology, Pallas is Perces brother. Seat1 undeployed -> rockets deployed -> PPC / PPC SPMA Seat2 laser turret Seat3 laser turret ...
