Posted: Wed Nov 23, 2016 7:54 am Post subject: How to alter the weapon spawn point combinations |
![Back to top](templates/Cobalt/images/icon_top.gif) |
|
I'm posting this in response to the thread "Weapon slot locations":
http://www.shootersforever.com/forums_message_boards/viewtopic.php?t=7051
as I didn't one to post it in that thread as it's so large and would make the thread too long.
I'm not sure who wrote the following document,
as I copied and pasted it as a .txt files from an
internet forum. It details the use of the "Disabled"
setting in the Weapons allocation menu of the Combat
Simulator (multiplayer mode) of the N64 game Perfect
Dark. This is a very comprehensive and detailed
document, and is well laid out, though at the moment
I don't know how well it applies to the XBLA XBox
360 version of Perfect Dark.
This document is copyright whoever wrote it (I don't
know who, and I can't find the text on google.com
or bing.com), and all credit for the work and
studying goes to them.
------------------------------------------------
Maybe this is old news, but it's news to me.
I've stumbled upon new weapon slot spawn point
combinations. I always thought "disabled" meant that
slot would be filled randomly with one of the other
weapons you did choose each time you play. But actually,
it's a bit different. Putting disabled in the set
divides the spawn points up differently from 1 to 6.
Disabled means something is removed which causes a shift
in the remaining slots. They are combined. Putting a
disabled anywhere in the 6 positions gives new
combinations. The actual weapons appearing where they do
is still based on which number position they're in, but
the number of disabled's you have determines which
spawn points are joined. Likewise, setting a slot to
nothing will make nothing appear in the new joined
locations. For example, in Felicity, the
bathroom and the pillar by the window are number 3
right? Well, with 1 slot disabled, those 2 locations now
have 2 different things in them. It's like disabled
means that slot is gone from existence and now the
spawn points it represented are divided up among the
remaining slots.
Below are the locations that are joined by the same
weapon based on how many disabled's you chose to
include. You'll have to experiment with where to put
weapons and where to put disabled's on the setup screen
to get the mixture you want, but these are the new
joined spawn points. Some of these location descriptions
are confusing, you'll want to check each level to see
where the original points are in relation to what I've
named them. I've checked all of these but there could
be a mistake here or there. Sorry if there is. But yes,
the spawn points that are joined are determined by how
many disabled's you have set; 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4.
This is confusing!

locations. Also the original slot locations with no
disabled's are included for reference.

Certainly interesting. In Lo-Res mode, I believe only five slots are available. I think Rare limited certain things a bit, to decrease the number of characters (especially unique, as all humans are Jo Combat and all Simulants dD Shocktrooper) and weapon models. So not sure how that impacts that, though I doubt many people would be playing in Lo-Res anymore. You can buy third party Expansion Paks nowadays.
Even with this useful info, I don't think certain combinations are perfectly recreatable (like Pistols or Golden Gun) without breaking something else. But if someone can prove me wrong, please do. Temple from PD is a nice place to test. Remember, you'd need to have at least Automatics (standard layout style), Pistols and Golden Gun all in their correct GE positions. If even one of them is wrong, than it's really no better than the current design. |

Something just came to me. Wreck you have said in the past relating to the body armor on the weapon sets. You said that in GE the body armor was apart of the map setup in multi and in GE-X it's not. However, you did mention that you can set the body armor up like in GE as part of the map setup but choose not to due to the body armor being apart of the weapon sets.
Now, lets say if you setup the body armor on the map setup in GE-X as in GE do you get to choose the number of body armor's are on a map? If my theory is correct, why not setup a map like say Temple with one golden gun in one location and one pp7 silenced in another and then work up the setup on their respective weapon sets? or will that mean those weapons would appear on every scenario possible no matter what weapon set is used? _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

Whatever is included in the level setup file will be loaded every time. Right now, it can't distinguish which weapon set is in use during gameplay (we'd need a custom action block for that, if even possible). There are some flags you can set so it only loads with X amount of players, but that's only useful in certain circumstances.
I decided to do what Rareware did, which was make the armour as part of the weapon set, instead of something that is forced on the players. There are many people who think the armour is cheap, and gives an unfair advantage to whomever has it. I recall playing with a friend years back, and we basically just ran for armour constantly to keep ourselves alive for a bit longer. Anyway, I preferred what Rare did in PD, letting us get rid of armour, or replace with more weapons.
If there is a chance that a custom action could be made that reads which weapon set is being used, I already have ideas on how to handle both Pistols and Golden Gun. Outside of that, I can't see all three weapon set styles* being able to work under normal circumstances. And even still, the moment you try to customize the set (like loading Golden Gun, then choose custom, and switch Armour to Hand Grenade) it will break it, since custom uses a different ID. It's so much effort and fuss over such small details, that it could be argued if it's worth it all.
*weapon set styles (based on standard 10 total = 8 weapons, 2 armour)
2, 2, 2, 2, 2
3, 3, 2, 2
2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2 |

That custom action block hack might be the only way for it to properly work for Pistols and Golden Gun weapon sets. I have no problem if they break if something on the custom set is changed. That seems likely to happen, I would expect that if it breaks either of them. However, I don't think it would break anything by changing the body armour. Changing the Golden Gun slot would definitely break the custom action setup 100%. Since that will be where the action block would be taking to use.
For the Pistols I would imagine in it's current weapon setup
1: DD44 Dostovei
2: PP7 (Silenced)* 1 Dostovei and 1 PP7 (Silenced)
3: PP7 (Silenced)
4: Cougar Magnum
5: Body Armor
6: Disabled
*This slot would be most likely customized to use a DD44 Dostovei in one spot location.
That would customize it to use the extra DD44 Dostovei which would mean 3 Dostovei, 3 PP7 Silenced, and 2 Cougar Magnum. The Golden Gun weapon set would be using the same method...
1: DD44 Dostovei
2: Klobb
3: KF7 Soviet
4: Golden Gun * 1 PP7 (Silenced) and 1 Golden Gun
5: Body Armor
6: Disabled
In case there is a chance for this action block I would not mind if they were the only 2 hacked weapon sets in the mod. Then if anyone wants to recreate the way their respective weapon sets are. Players can manually do so by customizing it the way they are in their current builds. Hell if anything on the patch detail read me files you can put down both weapon sets information so players if they want could use them how they were/currently are. Their weapon slot numbers may be changed around if these customized action block changes things but you can put the necessary info for them to be customized to how they are currently in a readme text file. That is of course if this custom action block hack thing can work somehow. If it breaks if something gets changed in either weapon set it's no biggy (as long as it doesn't crash the mod) as all you would have to do is exit the weapon set menu and then go back and it would go back to the default customized action block that was created for them. _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

Yeah, changing the set to Custom (to swap any one item with something else) would spoil the action block check, since it would check for the selected set ID, and custom would be different from Pistols and Golden Gun. It wouldn't break the game, thankfully, but the effects of the action blocks would not take place.
My concept is to store a Silenced PP7 and two ammo crates with normal pistol ammunition inside the setup file at pad FFFF. That way, they won't load into the level. You create an action block to check if playing with Pistols set. If so, you move one of the four DD44's to pad FFFF, and move the extra Silenced PP7 into its place. (that means altering the base Pistols set to DD44, DD44, Silenced PP7, Magnum, Armour, Disabled). For Golden Gun, you move out the "inferior" Golden Gun and its ammo crates, and swap in the extra Silenced PP7 and the pistol ammo crates. That should update those two specific sets to match their numeric ordering in the original game. Stack and/or Library may need an additional Silenced PP7, since they have more weapons total.
This is all theory, as the action block doesn't currently exist and would need to be hacked in to replace something less useful. |

Ah I see. So this would mean for both weapon sets it would be a PP7 Silenced be worked with the action block. I was thinking the pistols weapon set would need an extra DD44 Dostovei to replace a pp7 silenced in the action block and a pp7 silenced in the action block for the golden gun. However, your theory makes the hack more simpler by both weapon sets using a pp7 silenced in the action block instead.
Maybe this hack could be tested on the current PD patch you're working on? or perhaps on GE-X since not much is being done for it at the moment. _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

If this custom action block hack comes to light some day and works out as you mentioned. I say when it comes to Citadel's setup for the use of the Golden Gun weapon set. Put the "inferior" Golden Gun (PP7 silenced in it's place) in the location where that big open area with the body armor on the platform is with the two pillars and mantle underneath it where the "inferior" Golden Gun was and replace that with the PP7 silenced. Since it would be too easy for sims to get the Golden Gun and Body Armor all the time since they are in close proximity to each other. Not to mention that location in the map is a spawn point where anyone can quickly grab the Golden Gun there with ease. Rather, the true Golden Gun location in Citadel will be where that high climbing platform is. You start collecting the Golden Bullets until you reach the top to get the Golden Gun. _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

I also first thought about hiding an extra DD44 for Pistols, but when I realized each special set included the Silenced PP7, it made more sense to just share that between them. I think only Library would probably require an additional one, as it incorporates more weapons in the map. The rest should all use eight weapons and two armours as standard.
I haven't thought about the bonus levels, but that is a good decision on Citadel. I'd have to ask SubDrag if this is even possible, as it's outside my realm of knowledge. I was hoping he could repurpose an action block that we won't need for GE-X, and use that as an "If Weapon Set ID Equals, Go to Return Value" action. I can easily handle the setups after that. But again, I have no clue how diificult this may be, if possible. |

It wouldn't hurt to ask SubDrag as this would be really neat to look into before releasing the WIP patch. If this delays the release until christmas I can wait a few more weeks for this hack to be put in place and possibly hopefully function. It would be great to have both those two weapon sets accurate to the original once again and ready for the next release. _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

Another thing to note about this custom action block is the fix for the Pistols weapon set should be a lot easier especially since the ammunition for the DD44 Dostvei and PP7 Silenced are the same. They both share the same ammo. So ammo crates are unnecessary to deal with for Pistols.
Another thing to note also and I don't want to mix it up with your theory Wreck, is how does flag token work for "Living Daylights"? I can imagine it's called up some how on an action block. The flag token only spawns in one area where a weapon is located but no longer spawns there. It can temporarily replace an ammo crate. Then it is just passed around like hot potato. In GE007, The Man with The Golden Gun scenario IIRC the Golden Gun is located where it normally is in a map when you choose the Golden Gun Weapon set but the difference is it's also passed around like hot potato. Meaning the weapon no longer spawns in it's location but it's ammo boxes are still in it's original spot.
Wreck, How do you think this ties up with your theory for the Pistols and Golden Gun weapon set? And do you believe there is some sort of connection here that can lead the GE-X Team to the way where they can discover a way to get both unique weapon sets to be hacked and restore them to how they were laid out in the original GE game? _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

You bring up an interesting concern. I am not completely sure exactly how the spawned in special scenario items (Flag Tag Token, GoldenEye Key, Mainframe Terminal) are handled. Now, I think these items are randomly assigned to a valid pad position at the start of a level. Should it select a pad currently being used by another pickup (weapon or armour), than that pickup is temporarily replaced. Once the special item is procured, the pickup that belongs in that position will spawn back in. If this is the case, than we should be safe, as we aren't moving a pad around for the gun or ammo crate, but the pickup itself. The special item should find its way to a valid pad inside the level. I base my thoughts on when I once tested making the G5 Building mission version into a Combat Simulator level, and the Hacker Central computer loaded in the outside fire escape area, on a pad you could not reach. But your concerns are something to consider when testing, should this all become a reality.
As for GoldenEye, they set the Flag Tag Token in the setup file as a pickup, which always spawns at the same exact pad every time. Perfect Dark takes the special pickups from either the 39850 file, or from ASM, and loads them in only when the corresponding game scenario is chosen. |

Maybe this stuff can be looked at for another release. It would be cool if another scenario can be created using the Living Daylights scenario but replacing the flag with the Golden Gun. It would probably need to use one of the available weapon slots for it to have it's own ammo crates and for the Golden Gun to load up. Then it wouldn't become a pickup once it's been picked up by a player/sim. Of course, this is completely getting out of the original topic which was about recreating the original Pistols and Golden Gun sets for GE-X. Can this stuff even possibly be looked into? _________________ "The Eye of Thundera, give me sight beyond sight!" |

I don't know about a The Man With The Golden Gun scenario, but... I did receive an encouraging message from SubDrag about a custom action. So we may see soon just what we can do to update the Pistols and Golden Gun sets. Stay tuned! |
