Any profile (even custom profiles) can be defined in the editor, and along with model and skin and sounds, you're able to edit their speech and taunts. Although they look like players, use weapons, and will follow players around by default, they are not Bots, they are technically NPCs. And although they can be set to a team of players, they will not score points or pick up items. With some AIscripting, they can use Vehicles and Turrets as well. media61566 http://www.moddb.com/mods/old-skool-monsta-toolz/images/custom-creature-development-golem Sat, 05 May 2007 19:55:54 -0500 This model, created by King Mango, uses roughly the same number of polys as a Leviathan, looking more like the next-gen models in UT3, yet tests show that this custom scriptedMonster will run just fine in UT2004. He boasts fully articulated face, hands and feet, as demonstrated by the fierce expression in the running pose test. I've made a rough skin for him (shown; will be updated by another artist), rigged him for animation and I'm plugging away the long list of animation sequences he'll need. Along with the basics (run, punch, death, etc), he'll make use of a weapon attachment, a series of four clubs he can weild for extra damage. Shown at bottom is the stand-in club I'll use during animation, but the final four designs will be clubs made of wood, stone, iron and bone. This custom creature will be used to demonstrate how OSMT can be easily expanded upon to accomodate any designer's theme. While more than 25 creatures come with OSMT, additional creatures such as this guy or any of the other original Unreal creatures (Titan, Queen, Mercenary, etc) will be made available as a separate download. This modularizes the extra creatures, allowing mappers to pick and choose only the creatures they need, which avoids unnecessary bandwidth. media61560 http://www.moddb.com/mods/old-skool-monsta-toolz/images/osm-gauntlet Fri, 04 May 2007 19:59:31 -0500 These are some scenes from OSM-Gauntlet, the original example map for OSM Adventure. The top image is from the intro cutscene, the second image shows a room from one of the three routes players can take on their way to the a final confrontation (and suprise) shown in the last image. This map shows off many, but not all of the features of OSMT and OSM Adventure, including branching Objectives, cinematic cutscenes featuring the player character, individual creature behavior (such as the sleeping Krall in the second image or the Krall playing a dice game in the third image), complex puzzles, devious traps and advanced monster tactics. media61521 http://www.moddb.com/mods/old-skool-monsta-toolz/images/old-skool-monsta-toolz-and-osm-adventure Fri, 04 May 2007 19:51:35 -0500 This combonation shot shows aspects of what OSMT offers. The new gametype, OSM Adventure, available once an OSM map is in your UT2004/Maps folder. A key tool used in OSM Adventure is the OSMObjectiveManager, where you define Objectives, award points or adrenaline for achieving them, deinfe a default character profile, default weapons, or specify a DeathScene matinee to show upon player death, control cutscenes when Objectives are achieved, specify playerstart to toggle on/off, and more. This is just one example of the comprehensive toolset OSMT gives. Last, you see a few of the key AI settings available with OSMT's scriptedMonster class. Mappers/Modders can define Intelligence level, AttitudeToPlayer, Orders such as Patroling, Guarding, Ambushing, etc., Aggressiveness, and much more. These settings work with included NavigationPoint actors to define the best locations to guard, ambush, patrol, alert other creatures, trigger effects, spawn new creatures, etc. media61520 http://www.moddb.com/mods/old-skool-monsta-toolz/images/old-skool-monsta-toolz Fri, 04 May 2007 08:36:23 -0500 27 NPC/Monster creatures available, including any character NPC, with complex AI to guard, patrol, ambush, and much more. The toolset also includes a vast array of components to help implement whole story-driven SinglePlayer or CoOperative adventures in any theme, any style, even entirely new game prototypes. media61477
