Sorry, but I had to do this. I want to celebrate your new Ballistic Weapons 2.5 :D

Thank you so much for putting your effort to make UT2004 the greatest game ever again.

As for UT3, I bet The Crucible will be good, but no debate about The Crucible and Ballistic Weapons, both different, on different games and different gameplay, but no difference of them both being great ;D

Again, thank you.

Considering I'm in Spain, this download is fast for me. It goes 500MB and up.

The one on strategy informed is quite slow.

Thanks for uploading, just have to wait 10 minutes instead of two whole hours.

The goddamn Swiss mirror is faster than StrategyInformer!

Post subject:  Re: WOOHOO!!!!
Yeah, Strategy Informer is rather slow. People have to get Azarael's mirror or wait for ModDB's mirror.

I tried it, it's very cool. I'm not sure if there will even be 2.6, or 3000 year edition. That SMG is my favourite :D Everything from that pack rocks, and finally you can walk while iron sight without the need to hold that button, and the iron sights are a hell lot more improved.

Thanks Runestorm, you're the Uberstorm.

Looking forward to playing it when it gets done downloading. Hell, maybe I'll even venture online for the first time.

Goddammit!

It slowly crawls to within 20MB of completion, and then my internet decides to crap out.

To hell with it! No mod is worth this much RAEG in one night.

I'll wait for the ModDB link. :angry-cussing:

Incorrect. It has been scientifically proven that this mod IS worth that much rage.

Post subject:  Re: WOOHOO!!!!
One last try and my internet decides to shape up and actually download at above 56k speeds. Nice.

Initial Impressions:

-Agh! My loadout config! All gone!
-Why are all of the unofficial BW weapons listed under "non-BW"? It makes it really hard to sort through 3rd party weapon packs. They really ought to stay in the original categories, perhaps with a checkbox for "show unofficial BW weapons" or something, to avoid clutter.
-Big icons for all the 3rd party BW packs are all blurry. Dunno what's going on there.

The guns:

-BORT is fun. Flare should be a separate ammo type, IMO.
-The poison dart on the SMG is kind of strange. I'll probably replace it with an explosive rocket or something. Sight is cool.
-Reptile is interesting. The model certainly looks like it could be re-used for other interesting weapon ideas from unofficial packs. Seems kind of weak compared to the actual shotguns.
-MD24 is eh. Model looks nice. Fire animation seems excessive. I'm probably going to hate getting real iron sights working on that.
-New assault rifle seems like a mix between M50 and SRS900.


Oh dear god it's a completely new version isn't it? Now I'll have to change all references to BallisticV21 in all of my weapons code to get it fully compatible! D: NOOOOOOOOOOOO

EDIT: Let's change the thread title to something more descriptive. This should probably be our "official" 2.5 impressions thread.

Haha, I know how you feel. :P I took one look at my 404 .uc's and let out a sigh. Though to my relief, I realized that Notepad++ can change all of them with one click. Thank god for Notepad++.

If you send me yours I can fix em up similarly as well. 8)

Post subject:  Re: WOOHOO!!!! Ballistic V2.5!!
same issue with me, Regular loadout uses the V2.5 weapons properly, while Team loadout uses the recolor weapons properly, also if i edit the settings starting a map insta-crashes me :| The team loadout thing, the weapon pictures will show up like your playing on the lowest possible detail too, is there any fix that may happen soonish ?

Not until I upgrade the bonus packs. I've got both Jack_Carver's pack and my pack set for release sometime this month, though.

I've been in to for just a little bit.
The Bort is great, basically a pistol RPG, reload speed is good, fairly accurate.
The Reptile is setup very nicely, not real strong but it keeps killing, the back splash helps to detour someone from dominating a game.
Need to play against humans with it.
So far looks and feels great, will get in to more tomorrow.
Thanks for another great mod.

The thread sure got a facelift with a fancy "Ballistics 2.5!!" but I'm not sure who did it, was it you Kelly?

I also noticed how Skorpion's mods don't work! I miss Ballistic Friendly Mines and Ballistic Team Loadout.

Please if anyone can make it 2.5 compatible that would be appreciated.

Doh! Missed this :)

Thanks guys, the official word has just gone out now, ModDB is also up at last, and i'm sending word around the place.

@Azareal: Can i use that mirror for the downloads page?

The files only work on atomicgamer.

On Mines, you cannot do anything, as well as same on Team Loadout.

I wish Ballistic Weapons officially did this, too bad I forgot to suggest them to make a save function on load out.

Post subject:  Re: WOOHOO!!!! Ballistic V2.5!!
yeah same, i miss playing skaarj vs humans on onslaught (team loadout), but besides that, regular weapons on regular loadout being modified (accuracy, blood scale etc.) still leads to crash upon loading a map afterwards, is this a normal thing ?
