Radar for Smokin' Guns?

Postby Haris2201 » Tue Jul 05, 2011 6:34 pm

Hello all,

I think the most of you heard already from a mod where you can use a radar when you play 'Single Player'.

Now I want you to ask:
What did you think about a radar for Smokin' Guns?
This can push up the number of players in Smokin' Guns.


This is a little example how it could be:

Futures:
  • You can see your team (better teamplay)
  • You can see your position (better for new players)
  • You can use more strategy in your game.
  • You can see your enemys (no camping)*
* You can only see the enemys if the server allows this.



For developer:
I have created a radar for SG already and I am ready to share my work with you.
PN me for the source-code.






==The mod==

There was a mod on ModDB (but I removed it 'cause of a request of a good friend) where you can test the radar on a local server (or Single Player).

If you want I can upload it again.
This pack includes the radar and if you want I can add a mod for the servers where you can control/allow people using the radar.

Note: I said it over 1000 times but I will say it again:
You can't use the mod as a hack!

Please don't only vote 'No' becaus it's me who posts this.

Well, I'd go fo a 4th way: MAP

it could be implemented showing ONLY your position and th one of yuour teammates, not oyur enemies.

It can be added in an update, lke a activable/deactivable option?

mhmm.
I don't know what should i think of an radar?
If you see the position of your opponents, the game become boring.
Maybe for your team, but that will make the game boring as well.
For me smokin is interessting, if you have to hear where your opponent is, without the game will be boring.
My opinion.
And if you look on the radar the whole time you can't concentrate on the game.

Secound time:
You can't see your enemys.
This picture is just an example.
ONLY if the serveradmins allows you to use the radar without hiding enemys you can use it to locate enemys.

I think it will not be that useful (MAP), unless more medium/large/huge maps will be added...
