Games / Fit for a King - TF2 Update -updated with recipes

« on: July 20, 2011, 09:57:03 PM »

When WETA Workshop first approached us with the idea of partnering some of their IP with ours, we couldn't believe our luck. These were the guys who made In The Name of the King, after all, and since that movie stars Burt Reynolds, there was a pretty good chance they'd introduce us to him. Eager to raise that chance to 100%, we sent them over a contract demanding they produce Burt Reynolds at any partnership meetings.

Their lawyers told us they'd actually made some different movies about kings: Return of the King and King Kong, neither of which feature Burt Reynolds in even a minor role. We got less excited, then briefly more excited again when we remembered that King Kong stars Tony Danza, then into a tailspin of depression when we realized we were thinking of Going Ape.

Luckily Greg Broadmore, WETA Workshop's mastermind behind Dr. Grordbort's Infallible Aether Oscillators, sent us over a bunch of concept art for cool-looking space guns, which cheered us up immediately. We asked if he could redraw the art so Burt Reynolds and Tony Danza were having a gunfight in space over who would be our best friend. He said sure. Then he never did.

But just because Greg Broadmore is a liar, that doesn't mean he didn't invent some nifty-looking guns. Find out more about them here, and read a comic we wrote about the items here. Or you can skip all that and go watch Smokey and the Bandit II here.

Gallery / [WIP] national socialist Zombies: "Facilitate"

« on: May 30, 2011, 04:59:29 AM »

national socialist Zombies

I was bored today, and wanted to make a national socialist Zombies map in BL, considering I've been playing it a lot today. Has evented barriers, evented power,  and even...

SPEED COLA!
This Speed Cola doesn't have the same effect as the real Speed Cola. This one, instead, makes you run faster. That's it, whee.
We also have a mystery box. Instead of a picture, I'll give you a video of the box in action!
(Thanks Daenth for eventing the mystery box! :D)

You know about the power, but I have no pictures at the moment, sorry.
Here's a final overview shot of the first room. The second room still needs a lot of work, i.e. decor, maybe two or three barriers.

More pictures coming soon.
Also, if anyone doesn't mind, I would appreciate some help. Just PM me if you want to help.

I was checking the chat box, when I exited it I just fired and crit'd a guy. It was interesting to me, so I thought I could enter it as my only entry.
Honestly it's nothing much.

Games / Portal 2 <mappack name here> Voice Actors -NEEDED- (Fenton dialogue added to OP)

« on: May 14, 2011, 11:35:52 AM »

Some of you have heard about the mappack I'm making for Portal 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFJMCCzxstU
Well, I've been noticing that some people don't like same-old same-old dialogue playing over and over.
So, I need some voice actors!
Current positions are:

Code: [Select]

GLaDOS
Wheatley (will be renamed)
Fenton (pending name) - Video coming soon
"New" announcer

Not many positions, so fill up fast. All you need to do is take a line from Portal 2, freshen it up a little, voice that line, and attach it to your post OR upload it somewhere.
A supply of Portal 2 dialogue can be found here:
http://www.portal2sounds.com/#p=1
(Note: As of those applying for Fenton, just use some Adventure Core or Wheatley lines. We still need to "write" some lines for him.)
A Fenton line: "That reminds me of a story! I once told this newbie core that he could never turn his flashlight on, or he could die. It was absolutely hilarious!"

Games / Should I keep my N64 and PS1?

« on: May 07, 2011, 01:32:46 PM »

We found an old N64 while cleaning out the back room, and it's still got the controllers, cords, and everything. A PS1 too. My dad wants to take it over to the D.I. and give it away, but I think otherwise.
So, should I keep them?

Forum Games / Back to the Future: Movie Remakes! *Mall Events Test Released*

« on: April 10, 2011, 05:04:06 PM »

GOTTA GET BACK IN TIME!

The story of this is simple. Yesterday I watched Source Code, which is 99% irrelevant, but afterwards I had to go to the store to pick some stuff up. I saw the DVD aisle and something happened. I heard a flash and a license plate, and then suddenly..

A wild BACK TO THE FUTURE TRILOGY SET appeared!
I had no choice but to throw out my hand. I used grab, then check out. It was super effective and I managed to catch the BACK TO THE FUTURE TRILOGY SET.
This is exactly how it happened. Yup.
Anyways, what this is about is I am going to gather an acting group, and possibly a modeler/scripter. This group will assist me, and help us help you help us, in creating famous scenes from BTTF history.

PLANS HAVE CHANGED.
WE ARE NOW RE-ENACTING ALL OF THE MOVIES, however we will start with BTTF I and see how that turns out.
These are the current roles for BTTF Pt. I. Please note that you can take a builder role and an actor role. Crossed out ones are taken.

Marty McFly
Doctor Emmett L. Brown
Marty's Dad
Marty's Mother
Marty's Brother
Young Jeorge McFly
Young Loraine
Jennifer
Biff Tannen
Young Biff Tannen
Farmer Guy
Farmer Woman
Farmer Child
----------
Builder 1
Builder 2
Builder 3
Builder 4
Builder 5
Builder 6
Eventer 1
Eventer 2
Eventer 3
Eventer 4

tl;dr I need actors.

ONCE AGAIN, we are NOT remaking the movies, only the famous scenes from the movies.

Drama / Kyle Kartan - DON'T REJECT MY TRUST DAMN IT.

« on: April 08, 2011, 12:30:37 PM »

I was browsing servers and I normally sort it by most players. This stuffty family RP server had many players, so I decided to check it out and see if anyone was decent at all. And maybe to do a little trolling because these things are stuffty anyway. I came to the conclusion that they are all idiots. Someone named Scoud was building one of the most beautiful houses I've seen built in a while. Kyle sent him a trust invitation because he wanted to dupe the damn thing. Scoud rejected it and immediately got permabanned for the reason "starfish DON'T REJECT MY TRUST!"

Everybody got mad at him, he ignored it. This guy is a loving starfish, figures that he is hosting a family RP.

Modification Help / Client-Side Message Modifier?

« on: April 08, 2011, 12:54:31 AM »

Irk89 helped me make a script, in which he did most of the work because I suck at coding.

Code: [Select]

// Author:  Irk89
// Desc:    replace a with 4, and s with 5
//          a % at the beginning of whenever i chat

// since we are overriding a function (inserting what we want into it)
// we have to set up a package.

package MessageOverrider
{
    
    //the function we are going to override
    function serverCmdMessageSent(%client, %message)
    {
        // this is called right before the script sends the message to the server.
        // now we can do anything we want with %message
        if(%client.bl_id == 1279)
        {
            %message = strreplace(%message, "a", "4");
            %message = strreplace(%message, "s", "5");
            %message = strreplace(%message, "A", "4");
            %message = strreplace(%message, "S", "5");
            %message = "%"@%message;
        }
        // end changing message, send it to the server
        Parent::serverCmdMessageSent(%client, %message);
        return;
    }
};

activatePackage(MessageOverrider);
// end of file

I want to make this client-sided, so that everyone sees it, but the server doesn't have to have the script running, just me. Is this possible?
For example: LilRobot: %h4s 4nyone 5een my gl455e5? -except the server doesn't need the script running, only I do and it converts it to something like that example there.
I want it just so I can use my trollhandle in BL, just for fun.

Suggestions & Requests / V0002 Kitchen?

« on: April 02, 2011, 09:02:15 PM »

I remember the golden days, the cheese in the cupboards, the toaster with the crazy ass guy inside it.
Does anyone still have the ported version of this, or is willing to port it? Since the RTB archives went down, it's nowhere to be found. :c
So basically, I'm requesting the v0002 Kitchen port or to be ported.

Games / Headset audio plugin won't work.

« on: April 02, 2011, 02:55:14 PM »

my headset audio plugin won't work, no matter if i plug it in in the back, or if I plug it in in the front. i have to bend the cord or rotate the jack to get it to work, but that rotation never stays, it's annoying. i don't know if it has something to do with the headset or something like that.

Creativity / [VIDEO] ROBOTS, ROBOTS EVERYWHERE.

« on: March 28, 2011, 01:20:37 AM »

I got bored and some smartass thought he was cool for bringing 3 duplicates of him ingame after constantly trying to get into the badass club room at Irk89's challenge. Shortly after he brought the 3 duplicates in I got bored and brought many more in, proceeding to hammer him. It's nothing new I know, but it's still somewhat amusing. Enjoyy. :3
