Enjoy.

Cavecricket, this gun is amazing. Beautifully executed; just perfect. I never used to like the shock rifle before, but hell if it's not gonna be one of my favorites now when playing UT.

EDIT: The only issue I can discern, minor as it is, is that the energy orb takes a trajectory slightly higher than where the player aims. I have no idea if that was intentional, and it's easily overcome, but I thought I'd mention it.

Yay!
Finaly a unreal tournament weapon.
This is my favorite weapon ingame.

Keeeeewwwwwl

Holy...damm! this looks awesome!

Are the explosions 1 shot kill?
Plus does the beam to dammage?

Why dont you just test it out?

Very nicely done, though the ball seems to travel abit too fast and manages to get away before I get to take a shot at it most of the time.

Also, the delay between firing a ball and a regular shot should be shorter.
I remember being able to shoot a ball, blow it up and kill myself in less than a second in UT.

Crickeeeeeeeeet

This thing looks sweet, very nice on the original idea (at least to my knowledge). Testing that ish now.

Awesome. It seems CC has the havoc factor necessary for UT weapons to be used correctly!
It works wonderfully... now I wanna play UT...

This gun makes me so mad in UT '99. You can compare the overuse and homosexuality of this weapon to that of the ACR in Modern Warfare 2. No matter, you did an awesome job creating it for this game, CaveCricket.

Excellent coding man, you made it function just like I imagined it!
However, my sprites turned out ugly and it needs much better effects than now and I'm willing to work on that. I'll play with the effects, sprites and sounds to make it much better on this week and then send it over when I'm done.

Need an overcharge version that maintains the vortex for a solid minute/As long as you hold down the fire button.

Great mod by the way.

Only problem is the orb being fired a little off-center.
Otherwise it's excellent.

Yeah those were the days. I'd run around and get spammed by plasma balls until I got close enough to one and then their aim-bot would kick in and say "BLAM!, ASMD combo you're toast nub LOLOL!"

Seriously it was the ♥♥♥♥ Halo 2 Plasma Pistol + Battle Rifle lameness except like 5 years earlier.

I'll get a better sprite for a UT'99 version. I'll also get a version for the insta-gib variant (my favorite).
