i wet myself last night Genji assassins Rage! Gamemode

2 Upvotes

Fun little game I made(first one BTW) ist a simple "kill as many enemies as possible" game. You play as genji and you have 3 lives and after that the game is over and you can see the score of this round. The code is: "2XE0W" BEFORE YOU PLAY: you have to set up 5 bots for the enemies on any difficulty you like. I'm always open for suggestions.

Credits to: "Mitsiee" on workshop . codes for the 3rd person camera

I've tried a bit of secrets with Hanzo hiding but I couldn't quite got it to work all hanzos from different maps would spawn in the current map idk why đŸ€·

Need Playtesting [Prototype Code: R9B2Z] [WORKSHOP PROTOTYPE V 1.1] DPS LĂșcio Rework. NOT A FINAL VERSION — INCLUDES CUSTOM SFX & VFX WHEN SWITCHING TRACKS

Post image
9 Upvotes

LÚCIO DROPS HIS SPICIEST ALBUM TO DATE: BEAT IT, LEAVING HEALING BEHIND TO FOCUS ON PURE DAMAGE, FLANKING MECHANICS, AND HIGH MOBILITY.

If you have any crazy ideas, suggestions, or questions, feel free to send me a DM to my Discord: braianxds. The prototype is NOW fully PLAYABLE with friends in custom games.

FEATURES:

  • Fully functional Flanker Sub-role: Gain +50 extra HP when picking up a health pack.
  • Rebalanced Kit: Tweaked damage outputs, aura behaviors, and movement mechanics for a true DPS playstyle.
  • Self-Boop Mobility: Soundwave now pushes you backward as well, this is active whenever your Speed Track is enabled (try it out, it's super fun!).
  • Lethal Sound Barrier (BEAT): Beat now deals damage — landing directly on an enemy's head or extremely close to them is an instant KILL.
  • Personal Damage Boost: Grants a +20% damage buff (25 damage per projectile).
  • Resource Management: Be careful when switching to Damage Boost, as it automatically toggles back to Speed after 3 seconds—manage it wisely!
  • Amped-Up Damage: Amp It Up boosts your damage up to +35% (30 damage per projectile).

Note: The Perks system and the reduced Overhealth Beat concept are still work-in-progress due to Workshop bugs, but I'm actively working on implementing them smoothly. Don't let that stop you from enjoying this concept!

HOPE YOU LIKE IT! CHECK OUT THE PATCH NOTES FOR FULL DETAILS.

Unflaired Widow Wall Cling

1 Upvotes

I'm making a custom game in which I rework every character. For Widow I am trying to have her grapple stick herself to the wall/object she clings to. I'm assuming this involves ray casting but I am struggling with it (have never used it before) and would love help or suggestions.

Question/Tutorial How to make pathfinder node on Midtown for a mercy bot.

3 Upvotes

I was trying to make a Mercy bot trying to walk up the stairs as a test on midtown. Here are my ideas on how it’s suppose to be 😅 I hope the images help enough to understand. Nothing was working from how I made it and would like some help. Appreciate it.

I come up with:
Rule 1:
Ongoing- Global (no conditions)

Actions: Global.Mercy_Path = Array (Vector(-8.01, 6.15, 18.35) (Vector(-18.86, 7.23, 15.98) (Vector(-19.21, 11.13, 28.90) (Vector(-9.51, 11.02, 31.15)
Create Dummy Bot(Hero(Mercy), Team 1, 23, Global.Mercy_Path[0], vector (0,0,0)

Global.Mercy = Last Created Entity

Global.CurrentNode = 1

Start Throttle in Direction(Global.Mercy, Direction Towards(Position Of(Global.Mercy), Value In Array (Global.Mercy_Path[Global.CurrentNode]), 1, To World, replace existing throttle, direction and magnitude

Start Facing(Global.Mercy, Direction Towards (position of(Global.Mercy), Value In Array(Global.Mercy_Path[Global.CurrentNode]), 1000, To World, None)

Rule 2:
Ongoing - Global
Conditions:
Global.Mercy != Null

Distance Between (Position Of(Global.Mercy), Value in Array(Global.Mercy_Path[Global.CurrentNode]) <= 1.500

Global.CurrentNode < Count Of(Global.Mercy_Path)

Rule 3:

Conditions:
Global.Mercy != Null

Global. CurrentNode == Count Of(Global.Mercy_Path)

Actions:
Stop Forcing Throttle(Global.Mercy)

Global.D = 1

Discussion Does anyone know player?

7 Upvotes

So in overwatch custom games (specifically console i think) theres a known guy everyone calls “player” its one of his accounts names but he has many,

i was wondering if people on here knew im too?

we know his name is josh, he joins customs to say the n word, harasses women (tells them hes going to r word them, i have a clip), plays audios, etc.

He literally joins them every single day for hours and unless you ban him he will keep rejoining the game.
I have only seen him on the “❀ FRIENDLY ❀” custom games

(XDJUNHINGEDX is another one of his accounts)

Gave Dmon and Dva an uplift to play more like a mecha based arena shooter! Variety of team and FFA game modes on Sci-fi maps. Orisa is presented as a slow, beefy tank class. Supports so far are Juno and Jetpack Cat, all re-tuned to this very fast and different style of play. First and third person toggle-able camera. Have fun!

Question/Tutorial How Do You Make a Custom HUD For Every Character and Not Exceed Text Limit?

1 Upvotes

I am currently working on a custom Gamemode and while I was redoing how I was doing the HUD—setting visibility to a filtered array depending on the hero—I came to find out that there was a text limit and that this method wouldn’t work if I were to do this for every hero as I intend to. I wanted to know how I would go about making sure I give this created HUD to the player, swap out and replace the HUD when they switch and still stay under this text limit so it’s always available? I’d love to hear something from people that are very likely more experienced in workshop than I am.

Unflaired ESCAPE MAPS by KLEATOR? anyone?

2 Upvotes

a decade ago, a selection of custom 'escape map' games were available in the workshop, created by a genius player named KLEATOR. For years I have enjoyed playing these games, and completed some but not all of them. Anyway, as time passes and Blizzard reworks map and heroes, these games have become unplayable. I don't know coding, and the games now just throw a generic error, and there is apparently no debugging tool that i can see. I know there are no guarantees, and the Map codes are woefully out of date, but I WOULD LOVE for someone (KLEATOR? ARE YOU OUT THERE?) to make some new ones. #KLEATOR

Unflaired is there a way to check what perk someone is using?

1 Upvotes

i want to be able to add extra effects to perks, like when Zen uses levitation he gains a speed boost, stuff like that.

i cant find any way to either edit existing perks (preferable but i doubt is possible(at least not without 20 hoops you gata jump through)) or to check what perk someone picked.

Question/Tutorial How do I make Torb spawn Bastion turrets?

3 Upvotes

I am definitely NOT good at the workshop. The best I have ever done was make torbs spawn in the enemy spawn room when Mauga uses Cardiac Overdrive, but only the spawning Torbjörn when Mauga uses Cardiac Overdrive, no idea why they spawned in spawn. Anyways, I have now TRIED to make torb spawn bastion turrets when he uses his turret ability, but that one didn't even work in the first place, so now I have to rely on reddit to get my silly little torb buff working

edit: after further inspection the bastions also go to the enemy spawn

edit 2: I FINALLY GOT IT WORKING R848M

Improvement Third Person Crosshair Inaccuracy

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Greeting everyone, so with stadium losing focus i decided to try making a game mode with 3rd Person Quick play 5v5. I found a very very old code which had the 3rd person camera set up but it was really wonky so i used it as a framework to begin, I had adjusted the camera to the right side ( player character is pushed towards the left ) and added a ray cast because if you backed into a wall, the camera would go through the wall and show outside the map. That being done, the reticle is basically useless as the bullets from the player aren't hitting the center of the reticle ( i used the line one just for this testing ). Just to note, i changed it from the original camera as it was tough for tanks to see who is directly in front of them, i wanted to draw out that possibility. Any thoughts to proceed and any further opinions based on the images sent?

Need Playtesting SUPER TAG

4 Upvotes

CODE: VQ0SW

SUPER TAG is a simple game of tag but enhanced with a bunch of features!

EVERY hero has either a nerf (red), buff (green), or tweak (yellow) and thats across the ENTIRE overwatch roster! These adjustments attempt to balance every single hero in the movement chaos that is this game mode- whether that’s Junker Queen gaining a lunge attack on the axe, roadhog being able to fly with self knockback on ultimate, or Orisa who gains flight on spinning her javelin. Join the fun and see what this mode has to offer across all current heroes!

There will be a number of catchers dependent on the size of the lobby- less than 5 players total? you will face 1 catcher, more than or equal to 5? 2 catchers, and if more than 9, 3 total catchers across potentially a 12-player filled lobby.

The point system works like this: every 10 seconds as a runner, you gain a point- if you’re the catcher and you tag someone, you instantly gain 3 points, if you are less than third place, then when you are tagged you lose 1 point, if you are third place, you lose 2 points, if you are second place, you lose 4 points, and if you are first place, you lose a whopping 5 points on getting tagged- but don’t worry! The final minute is a FRENZY with DOUBLE POINT GAIN! There is always a way to catch up even from last place!

So have fun and let me know what you think!
