The game is up to 25, first team to reach that wins. You are able to get killboosts which give you an edge over other players. There are also 3 different classes to choose from.

Add-Ons / Add-on Presets

« on: January 22, 2014, 12:06:19 AM »

With this Add-on, you can have specific add-ons saved to later on load them up to your server. Example: one day you want to host a TDM and have only a certain few add-ons selected for it. The next day you want to host a Role Play and have different add-ons for that. Add-on Presets is designed to keep things in order for you.

This Add-on was written pretty quickly, so if there are any bugs, please post here on the topic so I can fix them. I may update the GUI sometime soon so it doesn't look so bad, Enjoy.

Modification Help / Animations only working for the host?

« on: July 24, 2013, 02:25:47 AM »

I have a playertype and we have some custom animations. Right now, only I (the host) can see those animations, and other clients can't. Anyone have any idea what the solution for this problem could be?

Modification Help / Updating an ML text control's extent to fit new text?

« on: March 11, 2013, 06:18:57 PM »

Let me explain my problem here. Let's say you have an ML text control and it's extent is set to 1 1. If you then set some text <font:impact:70> Some Text, it won't update the extent. I can write up a method to do this and if I have to, i'll put it into the coding resources section. But before I go through that kind of hassle, does anyone know of any ways to achieve this?

I've tried %textObject.forceReflow(); nothing. I also tried %textObject.addText("text",reformat boolean); and still nothing.

Modification Help / Anyone know why .ogg music files act up when placed in a ZIP file?

« on: February 25, 2013, 01:21:31 AM »

It worked fine when it was just in a directory, but when i placed it in a .zip folder and tried to call the client sided functions on it, it acted up. I loaded it up like so:

Code: [Select]

new AudioProfile(lob_inTheMeadow)  
{  
	filename    = "add-ons/client_lob/music/In the Meadow.ogg";  
	description = "AudioGUI";  
	preload = true;  
};

Any ideas guys?

Modification Help / How to search the forum (Read this before asking a Torque Script question)

« on: January 24, 2013, 09:52:12 PM »

What's up everyone. I'll be showing you how to use the forum's search feature to help you with your scripts.
Let's say we want to find out how to shoot raycasts. First click the Search button at the top of the forums and follow the steps below.

1. Untick the "check all box" highlighted in the picture below.

2. Click the "Choose a board to search in, or search all" button/text highlighted in the picture below

3. Now select the coding help check box highlighted in the picture below

Once you've done that, in the search box, type raycast. Anything to do with raycasts in the coding help section should come up. If you don't know how it works, i'm sure you can find a topic explaining so. If you don't know the arguments, you will definitely find a topic which has the correct arguments. That's pretty much it, hopefully this helps some newbies out and stops a lot of the same questions from being asked over and over again.

Don't know a function for doing something? Before creating a new thread, you should view this topic: TOPIC

General Discussion / Crystal Thief Gamemode [BETA]

« on: January 14, 2013, 08:46:24 PM »

Crystal Thief Server Online

Crystal Thief is a gamemode where players must find the crystal which is randomly hidden in the map somewhere. When a player gets the crystal, they get a gun and a push-back attack. Everyone else gets a sword and the ability to climb buildings. Can you survive the hordes of players coming at you and kill them off one by one with the help of the Crystal's powers? Join and find out!

How It Works

The Crystal is randomly spawned somewhere inside of a building or secluded area inside of the map. You get a nice little bottom print telling you how close you are to the Crystal. Once the crystal is picked up, the player who picked it up, switches positions with the furthest player away from them. If you kill the Crystal carrier, the Crystal drops, and the above process repeats. You get only one life and will be put into spectator mode upon dying. To make the waiting process less boring, you can answer the questions the Trivia Bot asks, for points. Currently, the Trivia Bot is not complete.

Features

A Crystal Model
A Smart And Completely Random Crystal Spawning System
Score System

Modification Help / Blockland Streaming (Dev Vers): Free Download, Script Writers can improve on it.

« on: December 05, 2012, 11:19:22 PM »

This mod basically lets you watch a specific board on the forums. When watching a board, you can watch the whole board, or specific threads on a board. It tells you when someone responds to a thread/ a thread you're watching, etc etc with an in game notification. You can click the notification to open a webpage or you can click the little blue arrow on the notification to see what was last said while still in game.

Script writers, do whatever you want to it.
