I want to have my own little mod that I could use to play in LAN games.

So, my question is, how do I make the Stealth Black Hand NOT stealth after buying the character? I don't want the invisibility kickin in.

Anyone know? Much thanks for help.

PS: Oh...please tell me what programs/utilities that I need. Thank you.

One thing that is probably pointless, but a cool gimmick, would be to make the right-click activate or deactivate the cloak. Very Happy

You need Level Edit,

Install it, Open it, Make a new Mod Package, And when your in Level Edit; Go to the Global Settings tab and highlight the "General" tab, Then click "Mod", Go to the setting's tab and scroll down, You'll see a "Stealth Distance Human" Just set that to 00.00 and Viola. Smile

Or if both, client and server, use the mod, you can simply edit the SBH soldier preset and uncheck IsStealth.

I forgot to add this:

After you've done all that, Go to: C:\Program Files\RenegadePublicTools\LevelEdit\(Mod Name)\presets folder and find the objects.ddb, Put that in your mod package or map and Viola.

Thanks a lot everyone! Thank you Alex for being very through and replying quickly. Thumbs Up

Now my only question is where do I download LevelEdit from? I went here to the RenHelp site but the installation is not working:
http://renhelp.net/index.php?load=Downloads&

I downloaded Jonwil's LevelEdit...should I unzip it into the Renegade directory and then run it?

I checked the leveledit files, they are not corrupt and yes you should be using the Jonwil edition.

A normal stealth mod, as he requests it, cannot be used on public servers, except if he do other things to make it a cheat, which is not necessary since the stealth cheat is one of the oldest Renegade cheats available.

This still does not change that it is a mod and should not effect playing on public servers. Wink

objects.ddb is a presets file >_> It contains settings that modify the game, yes. But it affects all aspects of the game, including online play.

-MathK1LL


The objects.ddb is not the only preset file. Other preset files are, for example, *.cdb, *.tdb, *.lsd, *.ldd. Presets can exist per-game (objects.ddb from always.dbs), per-mod (objects.ddb from *.pkg) and per-map (*.ddb from *.mix). If the client really has a modified per-game objects.ddb, the server would not let him in unless he 'cheats' himself in.

The server lets anyone in that can load/has the map it's currently playing...RenGuard simply wouldn't let him play with RG on/enabled.

The server doesn't let players with a modified objects.ddb in.

Please don't lock this topic!

I downloaded LevelEdit from Reborn's link and it works! So thank you!
But I have trouble finding where the various settings and tabs are...I am going to experiment with it tommorrow and will post any questions here if necessary.

Also, I want to make it very clear that this "mod" is for my personal fun only. I got the idea of doing this whlie playing a Marathon in Goku's Marathon server (the best server!).

So, I bought an SBH in the game but due to lag, I think, the SBH's suit remained unstealthed for almost 4 seconds! The suit was a bright lovely red/silver...but immediately after that, the invisibility kicked in.

So I thought to myself how beautiful the paint job is on the SBH (when uncloaked) and so I got the idea for this mini-mod.

There are maps that I have not fully mastered like Glacier Flying: I plan to use this mod in a singleplayer (just myself) LAN game to explore all the passages and tricks of Glacier Flying. I thought it would be fun exploring it while being an uncloaked SBH because he looks so nice!

So, I hope this clarifies any doubts as to my intentions! Also, next to snakes, the most disgusting thing to me is cheating. I am not even going to go there or EVEN talk about it. And thank you for telling me: I will remove this mod from my Renegade directory when choosing to playing online.

I will post any questions here that I have about LevelEdit since I am new to modding. Thank you all for your help and advices. Thumbs Up

I would open level edit now, But I'm playing America's Army, And the training Missions are a joke, So i'mnot going to risk my pc crasing. ¬_¬

Okay, After you install Level edit, Just the normal one, Open it.

(JohnWils Versin fixes a few bugs, And You don't need it seeing that your not doing anyhing advanced so it shouldn't crash.)

On your left (after you opened Level Edit) You should see a few things.

Look down for "Global Presets" (Something similar) and click the "-" icon next to it.

Now a drop down list appeared! Look for "Global" And hit the "-" thing again, Now you see a Paper icon and the words "Global" next to it, Click it to Highlight it and click the "Mod" Button and now a screen has appeared! Click the "Settings" tab and scroll down till you see "Stealth Human Distance" and set it's value to 00.00

Click OK!

Now click the X button on your top right hand corner and it will ask you to save some pesets, Hit yes.

Now go to C:\Program Files\RenegadePublicTools\LevelEdit\(Mod Name)\Presets\ , And find the objects.ddb file, Put that in your .pkg or .mix and viola!

If any wrds or letters are missing, Blame AA for lagging my pc. !


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.
