[UT2004] Nostalgic 2006C v1.0

Description

Nostagic_2006C by Bee-nUTcase.

Credits and thanks to:

Radiosity for his Ripjack2k4 (final) of wich i used the model and parts of the code.
UTR Team of wich i got the Impacthammer/Enforcer model.
Miles Asvachin (aka MrEvil) for the 'Boots of Jumping'.

This is a mutator (mod if you will) that makes Ut2004 feal a bit
like UnrealTournament (relased in 1999).

In this mutator i tryed to fix some things that has frustrated a lot
of UnrealTournament diehards,and even made them leave Ut2003/2004
and returning to UnrealTournament.

Most important things that are responsible for that, are:
Playersize to small.
Players Animation.
Playerskins to dark.
Weapons are not good visible.
Gameflow/Smoothness ,the fealing of not being 'IN' the game coussed by the weaker weapons of UT2004,
even if Unrealtournament weaponsbalance isnt the best,it sure is the most fun to play,and speeds up the gameflow
giving you faster gameflow.

My idea was to mix the best of both worlds (maps,sounds,music,physics of ut2004 are nice) a bit and im happy with the result.

The mutator does not entirely change the game but just gives you the feel of UnrealTournament again.

Since the extra effects sounds,graphics are to much to name them here,i say play the mutator for
at list 1 hour and you get an idea.

Mutator menu options:

Option use UT2004 or the UnrealTournament Scoreboard.

Option to use UT2004 or the UnrealTournament weapons/pickups.(Hud will adapt also).

Option to use taunt/pain sounds of male1/male2/female1/female2 or the UT2004 versions

Opion to spawn a jumpboots-pickup in each map or not

Option to use UnrealTournament headshot detection method or the UT2004 method

Option to use UnrealTournament biorifle altfire method or UT2004 altfire method (differance-UT altfire glob distance is
independend of globvolume)

Option to give players only 1 jump (1 jump mode)-(default in Unrealtournament)

Option to set the height that players jump when in 1 jump mode

Option to set the distance that impacthammer altfire can deflect projectiles

Option to set the time that weapons (that killed players left on the floor) stay waiting for some1 to pickup

OPtion to set the groundspeed that bots players have in the game

Option to set the ragdoll animation speed (look at it as a MutSlomoDeath with option to change speed)

(most options have only been tested shortly)

Known bugs:
Some Projectile spawning problems in 3d view (pulsegun)
Rocketlauncher:
As in UT (6 rockets,6 grenades) exept for the 'tight' mode.(Couldnt fix a prob that occured)
Sometimes the messages in the left upper corner will switch to the default UT2004 font

Have fun ,bye

note:
I have tryed to contact radiosity(the creator of ripjack2k4) without succes
If he doest like his ripjack being used in this mutator the ripjack
will be removed and replaced by the regulair ut ripper.
Hope radiosity doesnt mind using part of his work for the fun of the community.

This version was released in a rush,due to healthprobs i couldnt do all i wished i had,so expect
a new version soon,this version is 100% stabil and does not ad any additional lag to servers.
