Updated! https://forums.castlestory.net/discussion/7787/my-co-op-and-pvp-invasion-mp-mod-updated Sun, 15 Jul 2018 09:01:48 +0000 Modding fedex2118 7787@/discussions MY CO-OP AND PVP INVASION MOD! Hi everyone I'm fedex2118, I'm publishing here a mod I've been working for a while. I really hope you will enjoy it!
Description:
This mod actually modifies the invasion gamemode for multiplayer letting players control 1 crystal each and their own bricktrons and fight against the waves of corruptrons.

You can play it Co-op:



Or you can play it PVP:










Main features:

1) Your crystal can spawn into a different spawnpoint position everygame. (If you play PVP be aware that you can spawn near your enemy because is random).

2)The corruptron waves can be skipped by the Host. Every wave chooses randomly between all players' crystals so it can happen that for example 3 waves go to a player and only one goes to the other. It's Random!





3)If a player dies he will have only the option to spectate: if he wants to leave he needs to leave touching the home button on the top right of the screen. If the Host leaves everyone leaves the game, so GameOver! :s



Notes: I do recommend the Host to wait until everyone wants to leave or is defeated.

4)If your crystal is destroyed all the waves that are going towards you will choose another player's crystal.





5) Now with lights out:



Installation instructions:

Make a backup of your folder "Invasion" that is in [your CD]:\steamapps\common\Castle Story\Info\Lua\Gamemodes\invasion.

1) Download the file attached at the bottom.
2) Go to your Castle story folder, it should be in [your CD]:\steamapps\common\Castle Story
3) Extract the folder Info there.
4) Other method: In the zip that you downloaded double click Info, double click Lua, double click Gamemodes, double click Invasion, now go to your castle story invasion folder [your CD]:\steamapps\common\Castle Story\Info\Lua\Gamemodes\Invasion
and extract the files "Presets", "invasion_ui.lua" , "invasion.lua".

IMPORTANT: I recommend you and your friends have it installed, not only the host, there are some bugs occuring when only the host has it but the other players haven't.

The mod loader

A new generation of modding is here.

What is this?

The Mod Loader allows you to use mods made by me and in the future, others.
I have made a #teamcorruptron mod as a starter mod for this (it's also my event 3 submission), it allows you to RESIZE THE CORRUPTRONS, Execute all your bricktrons and even activate the corruptron spies! (Please note resize corruptrons only works for those currently in screen, you have to press apply when they come into view since I had limited time!)

How can I install it?

It's simple really, you run Merger.exe after downloading the rar file attached! (Use WinRar to open it :P)

IS THIS A VIRUS?

No!
I've added a virustotal check here also it's a c# file with no obfuscation so feel free to decompile it :)


P.s. I've included instructions inside the YourOwnMod folder on how to make your own mod!

This mod was made by artemiskhros here and I've taken it and made it easier to install.

Warnings

  • Only the person hosting the game needs this file.
  • You need to play on a map with more than 1 crystal to control different Bricktrons. There needs to be one crystal for each number of player. Conquest maps are usually the best for this mod.
  • It will look like you have 1 crystal, but in truth, each of you have your own crystal, they're just on top of each other.
  • There may be small bugs, such as only the host getting a "defeat" screen.

Text tutorial

Just download the file attached at the bottom of this post. It's a compressed RAR file that contains an "Info" folder. Put that Info folder in your Castle Story folder and say "Yes" when it asks to replace the files. Here's a step-by-step tutorial. You can click some of the steps for an image explanation!
  1. Download the file attached at the bottom of this post.
  2. Extract the "Info" folder from the Info (1).rar compressed file.
  3. Go to your Castle Story folder by right-clicking Castle Story in your Steam library, clicking Properties, going to the Local Files tab in the window that opened, then clicking Browse Local Files.
  4. Drag the "Info" folder you extracted, into an empty part of your Castle Story folder. If it asks you to replace files, click yes.
  5. Host a multiplayer lobby and set the gamemode to Invasion and the preset to Invasion Coop Fix. Be sure to choose a map with more than 1 crystal, or you won't be able to change colors.
  6. Choose a different team color than your friend to have your own Bricktrons.

Enjoy!

I heard that this game was somewhat moddable so I searched around to find that no one has created a workaround. Well, since it's a Sunday that means I could just make it myself so here it is.

What is this?

This is a gamemode that is the same as Conquest but the player spawns, and the enemy spawns can be predicted.

How?
With the assumption that the spawn markers in the map editor will never change order, the top-most spawn markers are the 'oldest' markers and therefore the 'first' in the list. See below.

In the presets of this gamemode, there is a variable called 'player_spawns' and 'enemy_spawns'. . If the player_spawns was 2, then the players could spawn in the top 2 markers, if 3, then the top 3 markers, and if 4, the top 4 markers. In the example above, the map was designed for player_spawns to be set to 3. And that will result in spawns as in below.



The other variable 'enemy_spawns' is essentially the same as 'startingCorruptCrystals'. It is the maximum of the remaining crystals that will be an enemy. This can be seen in the example below where the map is designed for 2 player spawns.




As you can see, the players and enemies will spawn randomly within their spawns.

Installation/Usage

  1. Download 'coopquest.zip' attached to this post.
  2. Extract it into '...\Info\Lua\Gamemodes\' of the Castle Story game directory.
  3. Make sure 'Survival Conquest' is the gamemode and use a map that is compatible with the preset.

I haven't tested this yet with co-op. But it should work so please let me know!

A map
This is the map that I made this gamemode specifically for. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1477188641
Use this map with this gamemode and make sure one of your presets is set for 3 players!
