DDDX RPG survival (map and mod)
-
Hi DDDX, thank you for this great mod! One question regarding the Player_1 slot, is it required to fill this either with a human player or an AI? We experienced that the mod wouldn't work (showing the complete map with red units etc) if we leave this slot empty.
-
@bvh which mod was that?
If player_1 spot is empty, then it spawns an AI version of the hero, after a while - starts at level 3 (not 1), is a lot stronger (more upgrades and buffs) and can be controlled by the defenders in the same manner as was the case with Brackman's Megalith in the SupCom mission.
As far as I know, there should not be anything to interfere with other mods, specific to player 1 being present or absent...
-
@dddx I start the DDDX RPG survival map v162 with the following mods active and updated via de faf client to their latest versions:
- BlackOps FAF: Unleashed
- Survival Mayhem&BO balance
- Total Mayhem
The other mods that are downloaded but not selected:
- BlackOps FAF: ACUs
- BlackOps FAF: ExUnits
- Extreme wars
Other settings:
Auto teams: Top versus Bottom
One player at position 2If I start the following screen shows with the warning in the minimap
But if I add an Aix player or a friend to positon one it all works correctly.
Maybe someone can test this on their own pc? -
sorry mate, could not recreate it.
Used same 3 mods, one player at pos 2, no problems there.
You should see the log and find out why the main script file failedit will be under a "WARNING: failed to load DDDX_RPG_Survival_script.lua" (look for something like that and see where it went wrong, or better yet send me in a message
-
Hey, just tested the survival. Either after 4 or 5 waves no more units spawn (its always either 4 or 5). Also, is it intended that the Top slot is allied, but can't control the "survival units"?
-
You need to see the log. If waves stop spawning that means you are missing some mods - they look for a unit that is not there.
Or some similar error inside the main script (DDDX_RPG_survival_script.lua file)And no, player 7 was never intended to control attacking units. How would that work exactly? You could just wait a bit then send in all of them at once, that would be extremely difficult to counter.
-
Hi,
i have the following mods enabled: Surivaval Mayhem&BO balance + BlackOps FAF: ACUs + BlackOps FAF: Unleashed. The mod extreme wars is downloaded but not activated. Is that correct?
As to the unit controlling... I saw that in a different survival map and was just wondering if its the same here -
dude...you are missing the biggest mod of them all. And the one that uses the most units in waves. Total mayhem.
-
Oh sorry, forgot about that, had that enabled aswell
-
@DDDX I keep trying to host this, but it never launches, Can you list exactly the mods that should be enabled and no more?

@erkdog most crashes have been narrowed down to one issue - the game spawning too many different entities/effects, which eats up RAM.
Once the RAM usage reaches 2 GB, the game crashes. It's a 32 bit aplication so it cannot be helped.The workaround is
-
set TEXTURES in video settings to NOT high (medium is fine). rest of the video settings can be high.
-
(optional) don't use aggressive mods like 10% particles. Overall, more than 4-5 mods in any game will give you trouble, and some host with 10+...that's just asking for trouble. The more mods you put in, the more likely something snaps.
-
(optional) decrease difficulty = less stuff on the map, less strain on the SIM speed. If it's too easy - well you can always play with just 1 starting ACU, can't you? Besides, on easy the bosses will still come at you. They will be a bit weaker, but...RIP People are used to playing survivals on max diff...well mine is designed to be a challenge on default for experienced teamworking players, and damn near impossible on 40+ difficulty.
-
-
For the life of me, I can't get this map to work correctly. Please someone help me. I start the map in FaF, only mods are blackops, total mayhem and the BO balance mod. I have extreme wars installed but not loaded. Teams are set to top and bottom. When I start the game, none of the RP starts. The map is fully zoomed out, i see all of the AI and they just start fighting each other. Nothing else happens. What am I doing wrong? This sounds like such a cool map!
-
@ardentia this sounds like an error in the starting initialisation of the main script.
Should be easy to spot in the error log.Start the game, press F8 (if I remember correctly, to get the error log, I do it so automatically by now
Press the check boxes to filter out only warnings, you don't need the rest.Search fir the warning that concerns "DDDX rpg survival script.lua"
It will probably concern the OnInitiate, OnStart, or SurvivalTick parts of that script - you can see what the reason was, from that, which part causes trouble and breaks the script.You can also paste that warning when you find it, here, or DM me (this forum has that function).

v166 is out.
Tons of bug fixes, brought on by FAF updating (tsk, tsk),
Reworked missions to make them feel less like a chore, and also giving you more flexibility in selection/turning off, while still having the randomness element (should make my map easier to play without OP mods)
New missions, new enemy units for those missions
A new "Bonus" system for the hero that lets you tweak your play style even more (should aid in Alpha hero usefulness/survivability/team contribution extremely, specially on later waves). Here's what that looks like - 7 platforms, each giving you a certain buff to your hero.
You get a limited number of bonus Selectors to use on platforms of your choice.As always, the entire list of changes is located inside the "Changes.txt" file in the Balance mod.
Here's a copy-paste of the latest:Patch 166
Map:
Fixed allied bosses not spawning
Fixed allied bosses and reinforcements still spawning if the Rift was destroyed
Buffed reinforcements numbers, and Extra defences turrets
Reworked all missions to make them a bit easier on defenders and more random. Buffed them to compensate.
Added Sats and Spider mission to mission rooster, randomly selected between tele sacus
Gave all mission types descriptions so people know what they're up against.
Made script less prone to breaking due to lazy players not cleaning the map of units.
Increased CZAR numbers in waves, reduced Carriers.
Removed Harbringers from attacking waves (they reclaimed wrecks instead of attacking)Mod:
Reworked zombies meshes + gave them attacking animations for bites.
Fixed zombie mind control not working.
Fixed Gateways not getting killed.
Created and added Centipede, SpiderLord to attacking waves
Created Overlord and added to certain special waves
Removed mini Czars from allied Pride boss
Nerfed mini Czars hp, dmg, crash dmg
Nerfed Carrier spawn chance in waves, slowed down its speed.
Nerfed transports numbers if trans mission is chosen.
Nerfed Dominator turret DPS, death damage.
Air Omega secondary form cannot be mind controled anymore.Created Bonuses for heroes + all acompanying units and buildings, can be turned OFF in map settings.
Fixed UEF t2 hero not being able to OC submerged units.
Nerfed Air hero death damages.
Fixed hero Sky tracker infinite build bug.
Made Cybran attached turrets on hero unselectable
Allowed Aeon Alpha to make limited numbers of Annihilators at higher lvls
Nerfed all Sera hero basic regen and max hp.
Buffed UEF HP gain when using special ability, nerfed the same for Aeon.
Fixed broken drone behavior for heroes. -
Hello! The last boss is attracted by the boss colossus and everything explodes
https://snipboard.io/uBhxWN.jpg -
@groove yeah, I know. It's due to some minibosses not being their own unit, with their own weapons and target restrictions, but just buffed versions of regular units. I will remake all the minibosses, and Omega final bosses, so that they both get unique atributes, and have customized weapons that will exempt high level units such as bosses from their abilities, such as has happened here.
Reworking bosses & buffing Omegas is on my todo list for future patches
-
awesome stuff mate!

@DDDX Hey man my brother and I have been trying to play together but can't seem to get on the same team, tried selecting the same team like normal/using the team option in the settings before the match to be together still hasn't worked. Any idea?

play top vs bottom, and don't get slot 7 (that's allied to the enemy).
read the map description once you host it, in your lobby.
