FlagAnnouncements

[The_Cowboy]

I made this mutator long time back ( and forgot about it )
Someone may find it useful

=======================================
ABOUT MUTATOR
=======================================

There were few features which, I think, are missing in 2k4 Sounds like
Announcer saying "Blue Flag dropped" or "Red flag returned"

Flag Announcements is the very mutator which adds all these features in UT99
+ new sounds like flag grab, flag returned sounds can also be configured!!

I have also made it compatible for custom Voicepacks(If you have used 2k4Sounds you
can understand it easily)



If you make your own voicepack , please drop me a line .

=======================================
INSTALLATION
=======================================

1) Extract FlagAnnouncements.u and FlagAnnouncements.int in your system folder
2)Extract DefaultAnnouncements.uax to sounds folder

3)Open Unrealtournament.ini
4)Find [Engine.GameEngine]
add following lines

ServerPackages=FlagAnnouncements
ServerPackages=DefaultAnnouncements
ServerActors=FlagAnnouncements.FlagAnnouncements


=======================================
INI SETTINGS
=======================================

bPickupAnnouncement=True -->If you want to load flag taken announcement
bDroppedAnnouncement=True--> -self explanatory-
bReturnedAnnouncement=True--> -self explanatory-
bDominatingAnnouncement=True-->If you want to load domination announcement (explained later )
bCaptureAnnouncement=True--> -self explanatory-
bReturnedSound=True-->If you want to load new returned sound (I have
included audio file for convenience)
bTakenSound=False-->Again check the audio sound.I would recommend to make it flase as it mixes with Pickup announcement
bNewCaptureSoundTrue-->Check audio sound
bNoCaptureSound=False-->No capture sound will be played if set to true
I made this switch because it may interfare with CaptureAnnouncement
DominationScore=3-->Well , domination sound will be played if the difference between the scores is *this*.If you dont want this option then simply set it
to 1000 or so on!!!
VoicePack=DefaultAnnouncements(without.uax)-->What can I say here??Oh, yeah make sure to add this pack in serverpackages or else FlagAnnouncement will destroy itself

========================================
FEW WORDS WITH VOICEPACK MAKERS

Be sure to add sounds with the names listed below

1) RedFlag_Taken --> Announcement made when flag is Taken/Grabbed

FIX

[medor]

[TSQ]

I installed everything like it said and I get this error...

Failed to load 'FlagAnnouncements': Can't find file 'FlagAnnouncements'

[TSQ]

Quick fix I did was renaming the files FlagAnnouncementsV2.u and FlagAnnouncementsV2.int to just

FlagAnnouncements.u and FlagAnnouncements.int that matched the serverpackage and now it works.

ServerPackages=FlagAnnouncements

[The_Cowboy]

No! Dont rename it.I think I found the error.I forgot to change the contents of int file and that is giving you the error.I have uploaded the correct file.
Redownload!!

Sure, why not. All it will need is a custom voicepack with default sound "redflag taken" replaced with "red tree taken" (with same name "RedFlag_Taken") and so on.

I might make it if you provide me the sounds.

[medor]

You can do that with google translate who can speak.
