Project Reality Deviation, an R6 like mini-mod (Alpha)

[KaB]

PR Deviation is a mini-mod for PR I've been working on occasionally since last January with the help of Mats.
Its aim is to bring an oldschool tactical shooter experience to PR. It mostly modifies few PR parameters rather than actually adding features for the moment, but that's exactly how PR started back then, isn't it ?

Know that you're free to host your own dedi server, I'll add it to the list.
We don't have the files to host linux servers yet.


Features

- Only C8 and MP5 as weapons, both silenced.
- Added flashbang (only in the officer kit, for now).
- Added a new crosshair.

Spoiler for Tips:

You can hide the little dot in the middle by pressing RMB in the commo rose (recommended).

- Modified rifles deviation.
- Added a GPS top right.

Spoiler for Tips:

Make sure you enable Map rotation follows player in the game options. It should remain enabled forever, in theory.

- Added thermal vision to the SL binoculars.

Spoiler for Tips:

- Replaced sprint by a silent slow walk.
- No more grenades or lat/hat or whatever that could blow you up.

And more ...


What's the future of PRD ?

I want to see how it goes in PVP first. If it goes well, I'll probably add silenced AKs to the russian side, and then I'll work on fun game modes like plant the bomb, capture flag, VIP, etc.
If it doesn't go well, I think I'll work on a PVE game mode instead (coop). However keep in mind BF2's AI is very limited, so don't expect anything fancy on that part.

Finally know the game might have few issues after each PR patch. I'll try to fix them as fast as possible if they appear to be game breaking.

Have fun !


EVENT DETAILS

Spoiler for event details:

PENDING

[KaB]

Reserved for possible FAQ

[Mineral]

Any events planned where we can play this? I'd love to try it out with some pubbies.

[KaB]

An event is surely going to happen, although there are only 32 slots on the server (intentional) so it might be like "Hey everyone ! Come in and struggle to join the server !".
Best thing would be to gather two clans and do a sort of match for fun. And possibly a small tournament ?

I'll see with Wicca what can be done.

[Zeno]

Please get an event going for this! i would even make a tiny CQB map for you if you need it!

[KaB]

Hey man it'd be awesome if you could do that. Although the perfect maps would probably be made of 90% of statics.
Forest ones might do the job, but people might like stuff like fighting through one or two floors of a large office building, or through some abandoned complexes like a mall or a factory.

But know we could totally test your map even if it's unfinished (missing textures etc.), since the mod is in Alpha.

[BloodyDeed]

Seems interesting, can you provide a screenshot of the 'GPS'?

[KaB]

Sure :



It's actually nothing more than the mini-map displaying the grid only, with the flags and teammates of course.

[MoulinKiller]

I'm not sure how I should feel about this.

I'm stuck somewhere between : Amazed and Wat?

Sounds interesting though, I will try it out.

[AfterDune]

Think "Rainbow 6"-ish .

You'd better be amazed

Even though I had a strong idea of what I wanted to do, this remains a very experimental project, so I really don't know how it's gonna go with 32 players.

[3ti65]

The most important question here is; can you customize the crosshair?

[KaB]

I believe I can do that !
However you'd have to pick your prefered color back everytime you join a server.

[Raphavenger]

I like the idea!

[KaB]

Hey everyone!

We're (finally) making an event, and it's happening Friday! Yep, that's after tomorrow.


How is it going to happen?

There will be a first round at 19 PRT. This round will be a serious match gathering around 20 to 30 PRT members who signed up to be part of it, and the rest will be anyone who wants to join, PRT member or not. Yes, it can be you sir.

How do I join the match if I didn't sign up/I'm not a PRT member?

Simply show up on TS before the match starts. And join the server. First come, first served.

TS : 188.165.92.2

See PRD server's password and other details in the OP.

The winners will receive a special ribbons they can add to their signature!

What's going to happen once this round is over?

Once the match is over, if you were part of the event, you're invited to stay and enjoy the minimod. If you weren't, you'll surely be able to join the server after the match ended, which should happen around 20 PRT, or even during the match if we didn't manage to get 32 players at 19 PRT.


Any question? See you Friday then!

[KaB]

The event starts in 40 mins!

[Mineral]

Won't be able to make it.

[KaB]

Praise the winning team!



(SWAT, Explo, Chip0, Sprintjack, Tutvys and those I forgot, you'll send me your PRT profile guys)
Edit: nvm Nate got them

[SWAT-]

Woah nice screenshot, it was awesome to play with you guys. Thanks for the event!

[Raklodder]

I do like the thermal vision binoculars.
