New XML2 NPC

thanks boreman i'll look into that.  I'll also look at Burning Rage's Emma Mod, maybe i can reverse what he did there so other characters taht are shot, lose there powers for a couple of seconds.

lol, i wanted to give give Selene the power to shrink others, but i couldnt figure it out. Everytime i used the power, Selene herself would shrink, it was actually kind of fun running around (very slowly) at 1/3 of the regular size.  Ok anyways, enough with my stupid story, back to forge.

Did you have something like "apply_self = false ;" in the powerstyle?

no, i think i tried apply_enemies = true, but it still only shrunk her.  i'll try it later when i get back to working on her. thanks for the advice.

shrinking enemies, sounds fun

About the "remove powers" stuff: you know those boosts that raise the skill lvls of powers? Maybe trying negative values could make interesting results (most probably crashing-the-game interesting, but worth trying anyway).

I think it should be in the singular form: "apply_enemy = near ;" lol

Hmm... I think every power has different base number of skill points... so it might not always work!?!? I am not sure about setting a very large value that goes beyound the max number of skill points though...

If the Ghost Rider's "Fear" attribute isn't MUA-specific, then you can sort of modify it a bit into the nulifying power you want.

oh, lol. ok next time i'll try that, the beam looked good, but it caused no damage and shrunk her.

Hence the "most probably crashing-the-game interesting" part.

ok i'll look at Ghost Rider too, but for now im going to sleep, hopefully it will be finished by tommorow.  If anyone else know's what might help me let me know, cause its sounding awesome so far.

Good night!

No, I was thinking that it might turn subtraction back to addition after the "point of no return"...

For Polaris are her abilities that different from Burning Rage's mod?  Or are they additional to what he did?  Just wondering...

i never installed his Polaris mod, i remember he said that it wasnt complete and at the time she was just Magneto with renamed powers, so i dont really know what he did.  This npc uses a power from the Enchantress, a power from XML1 Boss Magneto, a power from Apocdummy, and Stryfe's telekinetic power.

The Polaris mod I did is basically Magneto with boobs.  It was in the first post of that thread.  I never got around to giving her unique powers and such.

forge update, i got his power nullifying to work, it uses the same affects as Nick Fury's radar thing, its pretty cool, especially when it were's off cause all the character you nullifying immediatly attack you with their powers.  Some of his guns are working weird, like the riffle disappears even if im holding the button down and he's still shooting.

Also beam bolt says this "beambolt = fx03", what exactly is fx03?

Power Nullifier


notes: uses nick fury's skeleton, bolton and powerstyle (thanks to Teancum for the files). 3d head is a recolored XML1 Nightcrawler head, if someone can make it better please share. Rifle acts a little weird but its still good.

Power nullifier works takes away most players powers, well except allies and some bosses.  So far ive tested it out and it works on minor minons, Archangel, Bastion, Stepford Cuckoos, all playables used in Dangeroom.  It did not work on Holocaust.

also side notes if anybody has any ideas on what i should do with the other characters im doing let me know.
