First, is there any way to access the console while in game? Say my friend and I wanted to play together and toy around with some weapons. Is there a way to spawn weapons or some kind of server command that can be entered to spawn said weapons at the player?

You can turn on console using default key (~) but you can't type commands on server. You should try open singleplayer mode, respawn items, whatever you want and save it. After that, log on server and load your save with new items/whatever. I did that and it works. Sorry, but I don't know other way, maybe anyone else knows.

actually that is the best way to do it. load the save single player and spawn the items you want to test.
Item sync works, you can see what the other player wears. for the rest, patience :)

On the NV server, I still have my Goodsprings home mod installed. I have a few weapons and armor in it, and I can get that stuff real quick after I join the server.

Possibly just dropping a crate in Goodsprings with some weapons/ammo/armor in it via the GECK and loading that would work well, if you have the know how. It also loads my Caravan pack items when I join the server with the default.fos, so any mods should work. The other player should be able to see them as long as they are vanilla items already in game.

I don't know if you both having the same mods installed would have item sync if the mod adds new weapons, though. I haven't been able to test this...

[quote author=MrFahrenheit link=topic=98.msg791#msg791 date=1313214956]Hey man, first out I'd like to say that you've done an exceptional job. To be honest, that is quite an understatement. You are successfully creating a multiplayer mod for Fallout 3 and New Vegas. I tip my hat to you good sir. However, I do have a few questions.[/quote]

Glad that you enjoy the work on vaultmp :D To answer your question:

The current revision does not allow to use the console, however, the next revision (20th/21st this month) will. Expect it to be disabled again when vaultmp goes out of testing phase, though ;)

You can try what tester123 suggested. There is no other way, at least not until the release of the next revision ;)

Mods do not work yet, but the inventory system has been designed with mod support in mind, it's just a matter of time when vaultmp will support this ;)

in terms of quests so far what is synked atm

in terms of quests, nothing yet.
Patience, it's a work in progress, and the progress is going faster then i could have hoped myself. recycler is doing a great job.

well, there is always no one online or that 0 number is bugged in vaultmp server, also no one gets online because there is nothing else to do without a chatting system ingame.

It is already 19 of August. Will the update be ready tomorrow, Cycler?

Well, when I'm trying to run vaultmp.exe, it says "FalloutNV/Fallout 3.exe are either corrupted or not supported!" What's the problem? I didn't install any patch on both games. Should I?

You got both of them, well, you installed the uncut version of Fallout 3?

How do I uninstall all of the mods I added to the game?

u better reinstall the game. cause it's almost impossible to delete everything exept the game itself

It's only 2 mods I put, I will access the files and remove them manually, also does ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! affect multiplayer?
Also, can someone put a photo of an unmodded data folder?

i got more than 30 mods and they dont affect vaultmp. u just uncheck them before enter the game and they dont cause any trouble.

How can I chat with my friend in-game? I tried T, Y and U but didn't work. :/

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post this...


I have a problem, when I join the Fallout 3 test server, after playing some time (like maybe sometimes 2 seconds or another time 5 minutes) my game freezes and I have to close it trhough Task Manager. I have Fallout 3 Steam.

Fallout 3 WITHOUT steam only - READ main topic, damn it!

Ok ok, sorry, I searched around for that but didn't find so I asked.

Also, what is better (fun) for play with my friend, F3 or FNV?

I reccomend Fallout 3 - but u can play Both

I would advise New Vegas.

Everytime I attempt to put -nv in the command line the server still comes up as Fallout 3.

Will installing this mod disable achievements for Steam? Or won't affect anything at all?

I'm not sure about the achievements, but I suspect they don't get disabled ;)

There will be NPC sync ? We can will create our own NPC's?

Not in the next update (which is "only" a large rewrite of the mod), but it will be there later. The current system overhaul is to make advanced stuff like NPC sync and creation possible ;)

[/quote]

Just download vaultmp and enter to the New Vegas server. You don't need special files for play in new vegas.

See this: https://wiki.vaultmp.com/index.php/Ho...er_and_connect

and this: https://wiki.vaultmp.com/index.php/Download_(binaries_/_source)

When the next update will be 100% ready, Cycler?

Can someone make Tutorial video how to use the Vaultmp correctly please, because i don't know what i do to make it work on MP(Fallout3) I get confused and stuff

Update will be today or not Cycler?

Hello there. I have a question for you. Im scanning every file what I download and when I was scanning The Vault MP ALPHA my antivirus founded a virus. I don't accusing for anything but why it keeps saying that? And is it fixable or I must change my antivirus?

It's not a virus, it's a "little problem". It will be fixed in the next revision, like Recycler said.

Recycler already answered on the prevision of the next revision that update will be this sunday or maybe monday.

When new revisions will be available to download and when servers be online?

the next update, with the GUI and the Sync shall come in a week or so, the test servers will come up with the next update.

I didn't Read the last 6 pages so this may have been asked already but For the map situation will you be able to explore the other maps like The Pitt or the swamp place (Don't actually know the name of it but i do own it :D), Tranquility lane, ETC. Will they work? Any answer will be appreciated.

DLC maps? These DLCs will work in the future. If I'm wrong, correct me. ;)

[quote author=shorun link=topic=98.msg588#msg588 date=1312539400]
do you know SAMP? you have gamemodes there depending on a script right? well, this will be basicly the same. you will have the ablility to make your own gamemode for your server, with it's own distinct rules. so yes, you should be able to have TDM, free for all, rp, pve etc etc.

It's not the same goddammit, the syntax has changed in the new pawn versions.... I'm starting to get familiar with it now. It's really interesting watching the PAWNGuide.pdf!
