Suggestions & Requests / Decals: No, not the one on your chest.

« on: December 18, 2010, 10:41:31 AM »

Would it be smart to make a decal mod or something in later versions of Blockland that allow you to apply decals to bricks and interiors? I think this would replace print bricks sorta. There would be a max decals setting or something that allows yo to limit how many decals are visible. If it ever goes over the limit, it deletes the oldest decals. There would also be a print gun where you select the decal and it stays there with out being deleted. And with the new print gun comes with a max decals per player setting for the server. Bullets would apply the decals that are deleted when it goes over the limit. When all the bricks are deleted that a decal is on it deletes the decal.

The print gun would work like the normal one today, except where you shot it, it would apply the decal there.

I was loving around with the mission editor and I realized the models for bricks from the beta are there. Why haven't they been removed?

Modification Help / AA12

« on: December 10, 2010, 06:27:04 PM »

I am currently working on a weapon called the AA12
Here is a pic

This is my first real try at modeling. I am modeling at 1 face every 5 minutes so it will take a while. The AA12 is an automatic shotgun. It will fire 1 round every 0.5 seconds. Every round will fire 3 separate bullets at once doing 15 damage each.

Suggestions & Requests / Force Spawn

« on: November 28, 2010, 06:30:53 PM »

This is for RPs where criminals don't spawn in forever to get jailed or in DMs where you want everyone to play. Basically, after the time to respawn is up you are forced to respawn. No "Click to respawn".

General Discussion / Couldn't load shapes.

« on: November 23, 2010, 04:29:57 PM »

It only happens for some servers and it only happens to me. Whenever I am loading I get errors loading shapes and it disconnects. I deleted my cache.db and is still broke. Nobody else on servers seem to be having this problem. I don't see anything in console except it saying "Disconnect: Couldn't load model: Add-Ons/Weapon_SPAS12/SPAS12/spas12.dts" it also does this with files from maps and vehicles. The only way I can fix it is if I download the add-on from forums or RTB. Anybody else have this problem? Anybody know how to fix this?

General Discussion / RTB Slow

« on: November 21, 2010, 12:32:21 AM »

What's up with RTB lately? The news feed has only been updated every 5 days. My downloads keep freezing. Plus, all add-ons haven't been getting much downloads either. I think it may alse be bacause the news feed being down, people are too lazy to browse.

Suggestions & Requests / New Flamethrower

« on: November 19, 2010, 10:48:59 PM »

I was wanting a new flamethrower. One with a non-crap model or ear-raping sound effects. For the model I was hoping for it to have 2 tanks on the back of the player with a tube going to the nozzle from the tanks. As for sound effects the spray paint sound would be fine. It would also need a script that sets the brick color to black, applies a fire emmiter, and a light. After a while to fire would go out and change back to normal. As for damaging it would have to be aimed at a player for 1 whole second to kill, and if a player was on a brick that was on fire they would burn and die eventually. But of coarse there would have to be RTB prefs that toggle the light and whether it spreads or not and the burning duration. For the fire spreading it would select 1 of the non on fire bricks every so often that are touching an on fire brick.
