BowGun Weapon Beta 2 (PC and PS3)

—-Description—-

Primary fire launches a bolt which will explode on impact. Secondary fire engages the zooming mode for long range shots, but remember to lead your targets.

—-PC Install—-

You need to copy the folder UTGame into this folder:
“C:\Documents and Settings\YOURLOGONNAME\My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\”
Where YOURLOGONNAME is the name of your Windows logon.

Alternatively, the folder is accessible via “My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\”.

You will be asked if you wish to overwrite, click yes to all (this is so the folder structure is kept and the files end up in the right place, nothing is actually overwritten by this action).

—-Use—-

There is a mutator that will be found in the mutator list when you start a game named “Weapon – Bowgun”.
“Weapon – Bowgun” is a configurable mutator and allows you to change a number of the weapon’s attributes such as damage, projectile speed and infinite ammo.

You can also chose to replace any weapon with the BowGun by using the Weapon Replacement Mutator (see the “Weapon – Bowgun” mutator’s config screen for instructions on how to make custom configs apply for use with the Weapon Replacement Mutator) that comes with Unreal Tournament 3 or call it from the ingame console using this command:

giveweapon Mod_DZBowGun.UTWeap_DZBowGun

—-Description—-

Primary fire launches a bolt which will explode on impact. Secondary fire engages the zooming mode for long range shots, but remember to lead your targets.

—-Differences to PC version—-

The PS3 version uses a projectile which looks like the Stinger alt-fire projectile, the weapon ammo pickup is the Shock Rifle one and the PS3 version uses standard mutators as it doesn’t support the configurable version found in the PC release.

—-PS3 Install—-

You need to place the file USERDATA.JAM onto removable media of some sort (eg USB memory stick). Insert this removable media into your PS3.
In the Main Menu, go to the Community section. Then select My Content. This will show a list of installed mods. Press Square to bring up the import dialog. The standard PS3 dialog will allow you to select a device to import from.
Select the device, select Yes to import it, then wait while the mod is first copied to the PS3 Hard Drive, and then unpacked.

—-Use—-

There are three mutators that will be found in the mutator list when you start a game, they are the ones named “Arena – BowGun”, “Replace – BowGun” and “Spawn – BowGun”.
“Arena – BowGun” spawns you with the BowGun (with unlimited ammo) only and removes all weapons and ammo pickups from the map.
“Spawn – BowGun” spawns you with the BowGun and the Impact Hammer but with limited ammo (and there won’t be any ammo pickups for the weapon in any maps).
“Replace – BowGun” will replace all Sniper Rifle weapon and ammo pickups with BowGun pickups.
