Protonwar
0.15HF2 - Ingame VR Menu + Teleport only modes
- Teleport only modes are limited to other teleport modes for multiplayer, and vice versa
- In this mode the teleport recharges much quicker (~2 seconds per use), in this mode you can also teleport onto ramps / stairs.
- There are of course, as per, things that will need tweaking in these modes, but it is totally separate from the usual modes to assist with this....
Finally, an in-game menu console for htc vive!
Lots of small interface tweaks including haptics for the majority of the ui
Some level lighting and perf tweaks, hazardous should run better now...
New material for Aspid and Sniper. Aspid is the base line for the quality i am aiming for.
Fixed animations for Instagib Sniper Rifle.
Tweaked Stapler to have longer cooldown, and slightly larger projectiles to make it easier to see.
Some things worth noting:
I have been looking for some replacement art for some of the weapon models, i had planned to change some of these.
I spent a bit of time experimenting with faster speeds in the movement modes and have decided that, well, that was a terrible idea, even for a VR veteran such as myself. I wont be making any mutators or power ups to make the movement faster.
Thanks for all the support so far, and enjoy your weekends! :-)
Protonwar - 0.15HF1 - Crosshair, Lasersight, Scope improvements + Another mutator, one i've been waiting to work on for some time now :)
New!:
Added option in SteamVR to launch directly into seated mode, use this on the rift, or on the vive if you just want seated.
"Toy Soldiers" Experiment Mutator for VR - Sets view to third person and adjust's the world scale in the headset so that everything looks small. Best played seated, possibly with a control pad, does work with standing, how ever that is a very buggy at the current stage.
Highly recommend giving this a go if you want to see something "differnt"

Improved 3rd person mode, improved all weapon tracing from this
Improved 3rd person mode, now plays great with a control pad, and VR
Control pad tweaks
3rd person targeting improved, enabled for every weapon if in 3rd person, and doing so will steady your aim...
Add fire animations to pistol and sniper rifle
Fixed buggy jump animations
AI now aims correctly at your face, because its pretty!
Fixed crouch and slide in non-vr
VR:
Improved HUD visibility, no longer clips through walls, is more stable

Tweaked all weapon positions to be 1-1 to vive controller trigger
Seated VR:

Fixed slide
And a bunch of general improvements around AI again (Horde AI improvements yet to come)

Sneak peak at DM-Ruins
Here is some sneaky preview shots of the next map,
DM-Ruins, which will be featured in the patch, which if all goes to plan, will be out in a few days.
Sneakkkkkky:
The map provides a pretty sweet cover shooter experience, while still keeping up with things such as a few trick jumps for KB/Mouse players.
Peace out!
Patch Notes: Protonwar 0.14
Work has been going on for a new map called DM-Ruins (currently) Which is designed as a tactical / cover shooter map, featuring lots of cover, 2 elevators, and an epic health right in the center of the map. It is also designed as being almost symmetrical, and should make a good team/ctf map once we expand on those modes.
This map should be in the next patch, after a bit more playtesting. Sooooooooon ;)
New "Killer Focus" mutator, for a unique, more tactical gameplay in duels, or a more casual DM match. When a player gets a kill, they are highlighted to everyone, until they die, the highlight can be seen through walls (x-ray vision ;)
Unreal 4.13 engine upgrade (woot)
Added haptic feedback for weapons!
The character now has hands in the motion control modes, instead of vive controllers.
Energy gauge moved to the top part of the left hand, like you are looking at a watch :-)
Teleport improved, now behaves better and looks better. Still, more work to do on the visual side of this...
Burst rate decreased for AI fire
Increased time between spawns
Ragdolls now fade out (also behave amazingly in the low grav mutator)
Fixed decal spawn bugs on certain meshes
Decreased "Arm Swing" smoothing slightly
Lowered splash damage radius on Photon gun
Decreased / Removed the slight recoil that the Reaper had
Fixed non-vr offsets for instagib weapon and time dilation gun
Also i have created a fancy pants tutorial video on the movement for the HTC Vive. This can be found up front in the videos section of the store page.
GLHF!
