[QUOTE=OlivierHamel]I seriously doubt this is a 'happy' gamemode, this gamemode has taught me to fear the dark again, and I've gotten jumpy, trigger happy and rather paranoid. Great gamemode, but you're either satisfied that you've survived and infected all the humans or you're scared shitless because you know you're going to go through his again next round.[/QUOTE] You take it too seriously :P I mostly just make some weird noises to the mic(to prevent out loud screaming) if there are like 20 aliens around me. Other than that, adrenaline/reflexes take over. That's why I'm so damn cocky if I win. Actually, in Iron Grip I'm so cocky, that some people refuse to play with me. And in there, I'm so cocky because some guy who had won an Iron Grip tournament made the mistake of saying I'm one of the best he has seen. So basically, I don't shit my pants, but I vent it all out between the rounds, one way or another. [QUOTE=OlivierHamel]Cut the racism, that Kanadian is making your SWEPs and a Queer is making your gamemode.[/QUOTE] 1. Kanada means Canada. It's just translated to Finnish. We have no racistic opinions about canadians. 2. 80% of Finnish men think this. I blame the media. Leads back to the winter war, where sweden gave a nice, big, warm, helping hand[/sarcastic].
It's not hard to be the best in a mod that has ten players.
[QUOTE=Zeddy]It's not hard to be the best in a mod that has ten players.[/QUOTE] This forum section also needs funny ratings.
Funny, I wanted a disagree. Your statement evaluates to false, there have been up to twenty two people on the server at once. [b]Edit:[/b] AND PEOPLE! DO SOMETHING TO ICKY! HE WANTS TO ADD BUYABLE GUNS AND AMMO! *faceplam* SAVE US ALLLLLLL!
[QUOTE=OlivierHamel]Cut the racism, that Kanadian is making your SWEPs and a Queer is making your gamemode.[/QUOTE] Wait what, you say cut the racism for saying the kid speaks polish then proceed to call someone a queer? Holy shit you hypocrite.
No, he was talking about a satirical map, which was in the post, but apparently it got snipped without notice.
This looks intensely eerie, but not as much as Zombie Survival.
Zombie Survival isn't eerie. You just go around shooting everything until you win, or you die very quickly. And you know who is going to kill you and where they are. In this, you can't camp, you can't track down your enemies, and you don't know who your enemies are.
[QUOTE=Termy58]Wait what, you say cut the racism for saying the kid speaks polish then proceed to call someone a queer? Holy shit you hypocrite.[/QUOTE] My apologies. He referred to a picture I posted a link to. However, I removed the link when I noticed it wasn't taken kindly.
This may be an idiot question, but how the ruddy hell do I get this installed? Can't seem to specify the gamemode :(
Strange, did you unpack it correctly?
[QUOTE=OlivierHamel]Strange, did you unpack it correctly?[/QUOTE] I didn't have it unpacked correctly. I dropped it into the addons folder, haha. I managed to get it to actually set the gamemode now, but another problem has cropped up: None of the scripts are working clientside. IE: The alien's name doesn't disappear when in alien mode, needs aren't working, the interface is normal, and all the weapons show up as "Scripted Weapon" and are bugged to high hell. This isn't the only add-on this is happening to me on, so I dunno. Ideas? >_> EDIT: Well, turns out that I forgot to upload my cache folder to the web-server. I'm a bright one. Working on a way to sync the web-server to the game server's cache folder. PS: Bunch of missing textures, and everybody else who tries to join the server crashes. :D
I'm now on holidays for 10 days , it will the occasion to test the new version.
AWESOME. Just say when and I'm there!
I need a server ! [b]Edit:[/b] Seriously , the official server is not running parasite ..
Holidays are over for me the 23. Then I'm moving to a place where I'm not sure the connection is very good. I'm still encountering bugs playing with bots. I suppose this could wait a few days , but if I can't test it next week , I don't know when It'll be released.
No one who's capable of hosting a server is willing to do this? And none of the parasite fans are speaking up at all? Saddening. I've been trying to find someone to host a server myself but the "Divine" parasite.35 server seems deadset on hosting it's version (complete with a fucking irritating flashlight timer), and nofear says "maybe"...
I have to check to see if I can get another server.
this idea should turn into a REAL hl2 mod... just saying... also: no server is up
Tadaaaaaaa ! Brand new version. I made it almost from scratch , tough it looks very like the previous ones , for the moment. It's a test version , never tested on any server before , just by me with bots. It features a faster gameplay , differents models and sounds for humans , ammos and 6 aliens skills. But weapons are still fucked up ... I have to make them myself. [url=http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=49016][img]http://www.garrysmod.org/img/?t=dll&id=49016[/img][/url]
And 65.99.214.23:27016 not being updated...
The map should be improved, less corridoors, and more interior places, like command bay, more sleeping quaters, a office or two.
Fuck I have a catastrophic connection in my student room , I won't be able to play any multiplayer game. This is now dead for sure. I could'nt even try the new version.
Can some one host a server with this mod cause i want to try it out with other people cause i can not find any servers with it.
Sucks, campus internet ruins everything. I don't want to seem like a vulture or something, but if you cannot continue work on this gamemode, could I pick it up? I've got tons of ideas and I've been itching to get into Lua coding. I've already been coding in java and visual basic for years, and I recently made a program for extra credit in my circuits II class that allows you to build a circuit schematic including an ac voltage source, capacitors, inductors, resistors (for which you assign values) and every type of wire junction, which it can then analyze and determine total impedance and phase angle. All with a friendly and fun drag and drop interface. It was way more than my instructor required but once I get started on a fun project I can't be stopped.

I could think of a different name for it if you'd prefer and of course I would give you mounds of credit. And of course I fully understand if you refuse.
I don't even have internet right now...Maybe when I'll have internet again I'll be able to carry this on. And as alway I allow all attempts to continue this gamemode.
LOL this was taken from WC3 but lets hope its still fun =D
[QUOTE=h3killa]LOL this was taken from WC3 but lets hope its still fun =D[/QUOTE] Personally I tired the demo and I thought it sucked, but that's just me. Does someone want me to upload the high quality music module I made for parasite? Currently it won't work on scriptenforcer enabled servers because the module is a clientside file but it's still awesome to use, just type in start_parasite_music in the console and you're done. But it's big though, because I went for quality, around 50 MB for about 60 minutes of SS2 music.
I've seen a server running. So , what are the bugs ? Any reports ?
[QUOTE=Ickylevel]I don't even have internet right now...Maybe when I'll have internet again I'll be able to carry this on. And as alway I allow all attempts to continue this gamemode.[/QUOTE] Thanks man! I'm pouring over Lua code, wikis, and tutorials right now. There are some odds and ends that I'm still figuring out, but I'm glad to find the syntax isn't overly complicated. I hope to start coding within the week. If I do eventually release a new version I'm calling it "parasite: redux" or something rather than "parasite 2.0", so if you want to get back into it and release your new version it doesn't encroach on the name. Thanks again for the opportunity! I'm gonna have some fun with this. :D
