Respawning Pilots

[AHadley]

Whenever I get killed in Pilot Deathmatch, I keep respawning as a stock pilot, rather than my own modified soldier. Is anybody able to tell me why?

Afaik I'd say because of this bit of code ...

Code Select Expand

// Given a race identifier, get the pilot odf back
char *Deathmatch01::GetInitialPlayerPilotODF(char Race)
{
strcpy_s(TempODFName, "ispilo");
TempODFName[0] = Race;
return TempODFName;
}

yeh you will need a custom .dll

ZEMOD already pioneered SDM which is why i wish we could include it in the e-pack as i love it, but check that to see how they did it.

[AHadley]

I have no way of making anything even remotely like a DLL... unless in this case it is just removing that line of code or something simple like that. What do I need to do and what do I need to do it?

Try forcing on craft only mode and see if that works. Do test getting in a craft on map and then back out.

Just a guess.

[AHadley]

Can craft-only mode work when you're playing Pilot DM? I'll give it a try.

[TheJamsh]

No it wont, at least i seriously doubt it.

ZEMOD uses a custom .dll, which BTW DOES work with TA5. you will have to use that to get it to work. Download ZEMOD for 1.3, and use the DMDLL1.dll. I highly doubt space will mind.

[AHadley]

Don't be so sure.

ZE works suprisingly well with TA5, I'm impressed. Pretty.

good. TEST IT AND FIND BUGS!!
