URTechies for 224 and above...

I'd like to humbly ask for a coder to help me with the map URTechies (it may be found in OldUnreal's Single Player maps section). It contains a unique gametype known as Unreal Rogue Technology. Thing is, I'd need that technology available for current Unreal versions. Is anyone able to recode this thing in a way for it to be compatible with:

U224
U227
UT436 w/OldSkool

I'd really appreciate some help since it has come to FCBP team's attention that this gametype could fruiton with unique SP experiences...

Linkage to the file: http://www.oldunreal.com/maps/single/urtechies.zip

Thing is we have no coders on the team so we ask, help!

Interesting, that must have escaped my sight, never heard of the map.

Quick fix, kind of painless too.

http://www.klankaos.com/UnRogue.u
compiled on 225f.
works on 225f confirmed, will likely work fine on 226b/f & 227

may not work on 224, code makes extensive use of case : switch & may not function properly with the scoreboard. The rest of the stuff should function normally.

This subclasses "singleplayer" and has no replication, this will not work online without heavy modification. It only supports one player right now for score tallies.

edit: I don't care for oldskool and it's hacks, and this has a 0 chance of working with oldskool since this is a gametype in itself and would need to be subclassed off oldskool and I will not degrade such a unique and well coded mod. For old code, this guy seems to know what he's doing. He clearly followed the book on this one and I salute them.

Thx

Also I had this crash, it is probably map related though, rebuilding paths may help:
Critical: APawn::breadthPathFrom
Critical: APawn::findPathToward
Critical: AActor::ProcessState
Critical: Object SkaarjEnforcer vigil99.SkaarjEnforcer0, Old State State UnrealShare.ScriptedPawn.Charging, New State State UnrealShare.ScriptedPawn.Charging
Critical: AActor::Tick
Critical: TickAllActors
Critical: ULevel::Tick
Critical: (NetMode=0)
Critical: TickLevel
Critical: UGameEngine::Tick
Critical: UpdateWorld
Critical: MainLoop

I'll rebuild paths and reupload so everyone has the same file.
