Notes on Advanced User Functions for Tactical Ops, AoT

Version 2.3

[XGMR][FO]Santaduck http://www.xgmr.com/ http://www.frag-ops.com/

______________________________________________

Version notes:

1.0 forums/email version, combined forum posts for topics such as admin commands, summoning, keybinding weapons tables, etc.

1.1 6/2002 edited for web. Lots of UT commands added... not all have been completely tested, although some were (like onrelease).

1.11 7/16/2002 just added minor TOST commands: showadmin tab & mkteams

1.12 added some unreali objects

1.13 added recommended weapon binds

2.00 some info on 3.32... also updated summoning and pistols/knife enforcement, and added TOST semiadmin commands and privileges key. Weapon strength table is still 3.15 however.
2.10 Added Sound info at bottom, in a disorganized way, but if you're looking for sounds you'll know what it is. I still haven't gotten around to adding info on 3.40 nor on the latest TOST (4.2.2.0). Check utpg.org for the latest on UT.

______________________________________________

KEYBINDING

______________________________________________

Keybinding means putting commands onto keys on your keyboards.

Using the "pipe" command, which looks like a straight line: |

you can chain multiple commands onto a single key.

All your key commands are stored in the file to_user.ini.

So the best way to edit that is using a text editor like simpletext or Microsoft Word.

You can also do these functions while running Tactical Ops, by entering the "Console". By default, this is set to either tilde "~" (for console) or tab (for quick-console, or 1 command at a time). Once you are in the console, for example to set a command to the key "E",

you can type: set input E command

For example: set input E teamsay Reloading!!!

will make you say "Reloading!!!" to your teammates when you hit the E key.

Suppose you want the E key to actually reload and you also teamsay "Reloading!!!" Then you use the "pipe" key to link multiple commands together. This looks like: "|", and is usually on your keyboard as shift-\ (frontslash).

Look up the command for reloading (which is s_kReload, which you can look up below, or if you didn't know that, just set it to a key in your Tactical Ops Controls panel, then look up what is automatically listed after that key=. . . in your to_user.ini).

Now go into to_user.ini with a text editor and change the E= line to:

E=s_kReload | teamsay Reloading!!!

Note the "|" between the two commands. You could even chain 10 commands together using more of these "|" between each command.

Again, you could do this in your console in Tactical Ops (Tab or Tilde),

and you could type:

set input e s_kReload | teamsay Reloading!!!

to do the same thing.

__________

onrelease

__________

The UT "onrelease" function is implemented for some (not all) TO commands. In particular, main actions such as "Fire" "AltFire" and "Jump" do not work.

Basically, the "onrelease" will make it so the action is performed as you release the key, not as you press it down initially.

Try this:

E=behindview 1 | onrelease behindview 0

To keybind away, use the list of weapon binds and speech binds listed below.

______________________________________________

Aliases:

______________________________________________

You can define commands or sets of commands under the lines that say "Aliases" in your to_user.ini file. Basically you will give your command a nickname. Thereafter in your to_user.ini file, you can just use the nickname instead of typing in the actual commands.

For example, if you change the line regarding Alias #24 to:

Aliases[24]=(Command=" s_kReload | teamsay Reloading!!!",Alias=talkingreload)

this doesn't really do anything by itself.

However, now you can edit the E= line to:

E=talkingreload

You can also type in aliases in your console (tab or tilde). For example, hit tab or tilde during game play, and then type: talkingreload. Of course, this particular command is not that useful, but if you had something more complicated, maybe it would be useful.

______________________________________________

Recommended Weapon Binds:

______________________________________________

1. Emergency buy (useful when near your base to redo armor & ammo. This will also save you mouse time at the beginning of each round): buy 1 clip, buy full armor, buy vest, buy helmet, buy thighpads, buy 1 clip, buy 1 clip, buy 1 clip, buy 1 clip:

2. Buy HE nade (useful for multiple nades near base) s_kAmmoAuto 113

You could also bind Flash Nade if you're a flasher, but Emergency buy & HE nade are most important.

______________________________________________

SPEECH BINDS:

______________________________________________

There are two differences between "Speechbinds" and "Regular" talking.

1) Speechbinds are the "audible" talking that you can actually hear the voices saying them. The Macintosh software has some bugs, so you will not actually be able to hear all of them.

2) Bots will actually respond to some of these commands, like "Cover Me" or "Hold This Position".

Speechbinds are accessed by numbers. The numbers for speechbinds are listed below...

For example, if you want the "E" key to be: "I copy", edit the line in your to_user.ini file so it says:

E=Speech 0 0 0

You can accomplish the same in your console during game play (hit tab or tilde), then type in

set input e speech 0 0 0

I'm not sure what the last number exactly does, it has to do with who you say it to. I think it doesn't matter unless you are intending bots to respond to you.

TOST Binds

-------------

Servers with the anti-cheat utility TOST (tactical ops server tool, tost.to-center.com) installed, can also let you do specialized "say" and "teamsay" commands. The TOST versions are: xsay and xteamsay, and allow for special codes.

Here are some samples of helpful commands for TOST that uses macros to use Teamsay/Say commands. You can use them to alert playerz of your health status, your location and alert playerz near you...

Here is the list of common macros:

#W - your weapon

#T - your target name (haven't used yet)

#N - your name

#L - your location (if defined by the mapper!)

#H - your remaining health points

#B - players buddies (all players of the same team within 1500 units)

Here are some possible binds:

1. This one lets my team know that I am reloading what gun and how much health i currently have.

s_kReload|xTeamSay Reloading #w with #h health!

2. This bind tellz my location and I need some assistance

xTeamSay I am at #l...need assistance!

3. This bind tellsz my team to cover me and who i am near

xTeamSay Cover me #b!!

4. This bind tellz my location and I need some assistance and who is near me to give assistance

xTeamSay I am at #l...need assistance #b!

5. When throwing away a weapon (when it is not possible to sell it), you can tell your teammates what is available & where.

ThrowWeapon | xteamsay Free #w on the ground at #L!

WEAPON SUMMON CODES AND STATS

______________________________________________

Below are the damage tables for Tactical Ops version 3.15. In later versions, these values will likely be tweaked. There are also many other properties not listed here. For example, there is "weaponweight".

To look these up yourself, type in an "admin get" command. To set them, use "admin set". Note that in multiplayer games, you must be logged in as an admin before you do this (adminlogin password).

For example, to get the price (if you forgot) of a glock, type in:

admin get s_swat.s_glock price.

To get the weaponweight of the m60, type in:

admin get s_swat.to_m60 weaponweight (it should be 30)

To set it to be much heavier, type in:

admin set s_swat.to_m60 weaponweight 120

To set it back, type in:

admin set s_swat.to_m60 weaponweight 30

To "summon" anything, you must be logged in as admin (for multiplayer games), AND you must type in the secret unrealtournament code: iamtheone.

For example, to summon a glock out of thin air, you would:

1) type: tilde (to enter console)

2) type: adminlogin password (if you are in a multiplayer game)

3) type: iamtheone

4) type: summon s_swat.s_glock

You can also admin set almost anything. Player characteristics are set by s_swat.s_player. Bots are set by s_swat.s_bot. For example, to set your health to 500, type in admin set s_swat.s_player health 500. To set your money to 20000, type in admin set s_swat.s_player money 20000.

Also, you can admin set stuff in your tacticalops.ini file. The first item is the section (the part in brackets), the second item is the line identifier, and the last item is the value. For example, in your tacticalops.ini file, you have a section that is called s_swat.s_swatgame:

[s_SWAT.s_SWATGame]

RoundLimit=0

RoundDuration=4

PreRoundDuration1=10

bEnableBallistics=False

bReduceSFX=True

bDisableRealDamages=False

bDisableIDLEManager=False

bLinuxFix=False

bDisableActorResetter=False

bMirrorDamage=True

bExplosionsFF=False

bAllowGhostCam=True

MinAllowedScore=4

FriendlyFireScale=0.000000

MaxTeams=2

MaxTeamSize=12

FragLimit=30

TimeLimit=25

bMultiWeaponStay=True

bForceRespawn=False

bUseTranslocator=False

MaxCommanders=2

bNoMonsters=False

bHumansOnly=False

bCoopWeaponMode=False

bClassicDeathMessages=False

Suppose you wanted to set the friendly fire (bullets) to 100%, without quitting your game. Log in as admin (not necessary for singleplayer mode), then type in:

admin set s_swat.s_swatgame friendlyfirescale 1.0

Similarly, to turn off ghostcam:

admin set s_swat.s_swatgame ballowghostcam false

To enable monsters from unreal, you need to change 2 lines:

admin set s_Swat.s_swatgame bnomonsters false

admin set engine.gameinfo bnomonsters false

This allows you to type in stuff like:

summon unreali.warlord

summon unreali.dispersionpistol

summon unreali.krall

Well, here are the weapon tables, which includes the summon codes for each weapon on each line. Just insert after s_swat. So, the glock says: s_glock. To summon it, you need to type in summon s_swat.s_glock.

After the weapon tables are summoning codes for other items.

NOTE SUMMONING CODES FOR EACH WEAPON AT THE END OF EACH LINE:

[CODE]

______________________________________________

CACHE

______________________________________________

Any files you download from internet servers will not be downloaded into the appropriate folders for maps, textures, music, system, sounds. They will be kept as "cache" files with the *.uxx extension in the CACHE folder. Therefore they are not accessible if you start your own (single player or mulitplayer) game. So if you download a cool map, what to do?

In the CACHE folder, open up the file: CACHE.INI. Inside you will find translation of the arcane coded file names. Just rename the file in Finder, and move it to the appropriate folder. That's all.

For example, if you downloaded a map while playing on an internet server, Moving Day Massacre, and the cache.ini says:

7E411A6994C2X1P.uxx=TO-MovingDayMassacre.unr

then rename the file 7E411A6994C2X1P.uxx (in your CACHE folder) to TO-MovingDayMassacre.unr then move it to your MAPS folder.

Note that *.unr files go to MAPS, *.utx files go to TEXTURES, *.umx files got to MUSIC, *.UAX files go to SOUNDS, and *.u and *.int files go to SYSTEM.

Some maps come with their custom sounds, textures, music, and sometimes even system files.
