[Release] UT2004 announcer

[Brentdevent]

Made this for nostalgia and learning purposes, so I thought about sharing this with the community to see if more people would be interested in this mod.

This mod contains the following modifications:

Killstreak sounds
The sounds you hear when you achieve a certain gunstreak.

• 5 kills - Killing spree
• 10 kills - Rampage
• 15 kills - Dominating
• 20 kills - Unstoppable
• 25 kills - God Like
• 30 kills - Wicked sick

Multi kills
This mod also contains the multi kill system from UT2004 with sounds and "splashcards".

• 2 kills - Double kill
• 3 kills - Multi kill
• 4 kills - Mega kill
• 5 kills - Ultra kill
• 6 kills - Monster kill
• 7 kills - Ludicrous kill
• 8 kills - HOLY SHIT!

Misc sounds

• Firstblood
• Headshot

Timer
It also contains the sounds related to the time left in the match.

How to install

1. Create a folder in your mods folder (for example "UTAnnouncer")
2. Place the mod.ff and mod.iwd in the UTAnnouncer folder
3. Place the _custom_sounds.gsc in the scripts folder

So the folder structure should look like this:

Server owners have to specify the path of the mod in the config files
For private match you type fs_game mods/UTAnnouncer in the console before loading a map.

Interested in making your own announcer pack?
I included the rawfiles in my github repo so you can see how things are done.

Ah thanks for letting me know. For some reason I can't edit the post anymore. Therefore I post a new link here.

Brentdevent I edited your post to include the correct download link.

Very nice release! I wish it would say triple kill instead of multi kill like on MW3. Also it might just be me but sounds volume is a bit too low in my opinion you don't really hear it while shooting.
But other than that it's awesome

WICKED SICK

Resxt Many thanks haha, yea I agree, if I can find some time, I'll take a look if I can increase the volume somehow.
There is unfortunately no sound for triple kills in UT2004 since they are called multi kills in this game. So that is the reason why I replaced it.

I appreciate the feedback!

******* script runtime error *******
in call to builtin method "playsound"

    at function "timelimitclockut" in file "scripts/_custom_sounds.gsc"

Help!

Vennek seems like the mod doesn't get loaded properly. I think it should be +fs_game mods\UTAnnouncer instead of +fs_game mods/UTAnnouncer?

[Vennek]

Brentdevent said in [Release] UT2004 announcer:

+fs_game mods\UTAnnouncer

+fs_game mods\UTAnnouncer doesn't work.

Unless im just dumb (big possibility) this mod does not work anymore server side
