Bad Company

[StompyNZ]

Does anybody just have the bandits code for alpha 16 and where to apply it I loved a15 bad company

check back through the last couple of pages, pretty much covered the requirements

I have a question please: I've been using this for awhile now and love the variety, but def noticed the increased load on my system. Recently, Darkness Falls and Ravenhearst added pregenerated UMA textures for their archetypes to their mod download packages, that are supposedly smaller/less load heavy than letting the game generate them. Is it possible to do the same for this mod?

[Guppycur]

Yes; once you generate the textures, you can edit them directly from the folder to decrease their quality.

[owl79]

My UMA textures folder always stays empty. Are the textures only in there while the game is running?

[StompyNZ]

the uma code is buggy

I have all uma's set as player so all the textures are generated on spawn

If you use non player types it will create and use the textures, but they are at full res and with the number bad co uses you probably won't even be able to load to the menu.

Thanks! So it's only a matter of changing type=player to type=zombie in archetypes? I might try by loading only a subset, to optimize at least my fav ones that I don't wanna lose.

Yeah that's one option. I'd try about 10 max first time, then if that loads ok try adding a few more

Hopefully the system can get a little attention for a17 to fix the main bugs.

oh and if you get an error on loading you may need to add an empty UMATextures folder before you try to generate them

Hi , i make a small remake of bad company from npc bandit chainsaw cause he was a bit annoying cause he doesnt target the box properly... so i make a new one ( i add the utilityai for the bandits ranged too ) -> "keep a distance / flee" .


and I would like to have some opinion ! ^^



the stats from the entity is a bit fat. it s just a test..but i think it should be interesting for the players with a high level who are bored in pve or pvp should be fun too..

[SlicksGirl]

but what if we just want small amounts of bandits and friendly NPC's to spawn naturally, though rarely, into the world? is there a mod version for just adding them? My players want our map to fee a bit alive without dragging the server down too much.

[Guppycur]

If you want a really alive world, try the medieval mod...

...but otherwise, you'll have to edit the boime spawning portion of the xml's to include a bandit group that infrequently spawns to that, and then make entity groups that reflect the bandits themselves. Use invisibleAnimal (like tfp does animals) to control the spawns a bit better and make them less frequent.

For some reason I can't spawn the bandit when I try using f6, zombies no problem. I got for error; object reference not set to an instance of an object.

In my log;

Hope you can help with that.

So, I got the bandit working but how do we change the range, this is insane how far they can see you.

@StompyNZ trying to send you a message but your in-box is full lol, 2 previous problems are fixed but now this one is more important. When bandits come to the trader error message Spam the chat, object not found......

Could you help with that. I tried disabling the trader protection, its working but not an option to consider for me. I know lots servers has them without problem trader are protected and bandit don't bug anything but nobody is giving the information what they did.

I really love them and I wish to be able to use them.

Thanks a lot

[StompyNZ]

it's been over a year since I looked at the xml for them, so not entirely sure. I recall something about the factions being the problem. Check that the bandits and traders have a mapping in the npc.xml maybe?

Hi, You Can Use this___ <property name="SightRange" value="120"/> <!-- distance in m -->
