This package contains the Unreal Tournament Chainsaw.
The sounds, model and skin assets were extracted from UT1 using the UT Package Tool (google UTPT to find the download). The code was converted/modified for UT2k4 by me, and I also redid the animations (first person and third person) as a skeletal set.
History:
Version 2 - added simple mutator to give all players the chainsaw and optionally remove the shieldgun
Version 1 - first UT2k4 version (that I know of...)
_____________________
*** Installation ****
Place ym_Chainsaw.u in your system directory (typically c:ut2004system)
This has only been tested in instant action! It should work in network/lan games as well.
For network compatibility simply add this line to your UT2k4.ini file with the other server packages
Serverpackages=ym_Chainsaw
_____________________
*** In game usage ***
1. Use the YM UT99 Chainsaw mutator to let all players start with the chainsaw
2. Use the Arena mutator and select the "UT99 Chainsaw" from the weapon list
3. use the following console command: summon ym_chainsaw.chainsawpickup
*NOTE* If you do not like the UT99 Hand & Arm, simply enter the following console command with the chainsaw selected, then switch weapons, and switch back to the saw (the hand will go away when you switch back to the chainsaw): "set chainsaw bNoHand 1"
The setting will automatically be saved when you exit UT2k4 later (so you will not have to keep entering it)
To turn the Arm back on enter "set chainsaw bNoHand 0" in the console then reselect the chainsaw
Have fun! -Meowcat
