Alien Swarm: Source Megathread v2 - what's in these eggs OH GOD - Games

[QUOTE=ETK2009;23529259]Any news on how to replace weapons and character models yet?[/QUOTE] To decompile them do it as if your decompiling a L4D2 model. I haven't figured out how to recompile though yet, The one guide I've found for L4D2 doesn't work.

[QUOTE=4RT1LL3RY;23529247]What? The tesla cannon only does 10 damage a hit anyways and has a fire rate of 4, so 40 dps. Its very useful but has limited range. Its useful yes, but other weapons can be more useful. It is the best support weapon in the game, stuns, no ff, never waste ammo. Its great to have as someone in the back lines, but its [b]killing[/b] power is severely limited. Try and kill bugs with the tesla on hard or insane isn't cost effective.[/QUOTE] I dunno... it doesn't kill as fast, but just now me and 1 other person both used Tesla, on Hard, and we were kicking ass. Everyone on-screen was stunned so it didn't matter that we weren't killing fast. The crazy amount of stun, plus the fact that there is 0 friendly fire, nearly unlimited ammo, and it shoots through doors... its just a crazy weapon. I haven't played Insane yet. I'm just saying, on Hard, its a bit too good, IMO.

God... i hate this matchmaking crap, it keeps going down and stops you from finding games. i miss the times where i could just browse the servers, look for the custom map/mod i wanted and join it.

[QUOTE=ETK2009;23529341]Ive already decompiled them, edited them, recompiled them.

I forget what it is but it involves browser.

[QUOTE=Xionasis;23527389]I lagged really bad while I was playing and it removed a person from my hud and replaced it with Faith (The character I was playing): [IMG_thumb]http://i162.photobucket.com/albums/t265/Zane_15/hezzyfinale.jpg[/IMG_thumb] Hezzy almost finished that finale by himself on hard. :911:[/QUOTE] I think it's after I left it fucked up somehow and made me faith... Also when you died is showed as faith dying

No, when I died and it showed faith is when it did it. I couldn't see you for the rest of the game.

Friendly fire isn't bad at all till insane, then 5 pistol rounds kill you. Tesla is a great weapon to give to people who can't aim, keep it good so they are still useful. On parasite heavy maps having two people with flamers and two with teslas is super effective, until you reach big guys you need to kill fast like boomers and shield bugs. The weapons are balanced by all being effective and awesome in some way, except the Assault rifles they just aren't as good but they do have a grenade launcher.

On top of that there is no */models/player etc. I had to get that out of one of the VPK's

It's not like the game has any competitive modes (besides that deathmatch thing, and due to the way that works you couldn't use the Tesla Gun anyway). With how crazy shit can get on some of the harder modes if you're not prepared and working as a team, you're gonna need every advantage you can get.

-Fixed crash to desktop on certain graphics cards Before this patch came in, I played this no problem. Now that it did, Im crashing. Fix some, break some.

Someone should really get to work on making a TF2 soundpack. If only I knew the exact specifications of the WAV files used.

Can someone make a playerlist? Also is there gonna be some facepunch servers? :downs:

I can't find the laser file. I will look tomorrow, It's kind of late now.

Ow my pride hurts from insane, just played 4 hours of it and finally did survived the nuke. Railgun and Tesla was what I ran most the time, sometimes a sentry.

Still waiting for that free server from Tavish Degroot. Also my combat music doesn't seem to work

[QUOTE=fullmetalninja;23533189]Still waiting for that free server from Tavish Degroot. Also my combat music doesn't seem to work[/QUOTE] The problem seems to be something with the album art. Remove it for the songs you want to use, then re-add the songs to the list, and it should work.

So, who else used the custom music option in the audio options. It's pretty cool, it plays whatever you got in there during the mini finale things.

[QUOTE=ZombieMannequin;23533545]The problem seems to be something with the album art. Remove it for the songs you want to use, then re-add the songs to the list, and it should work.[/QUOTE] I have no album art for any of the files used, and I still don't hear anything.
