BSL:BFW Scripting Language: Difference between revisions

Scripted mods are great examples of what can be accomplished by editing scripts. They replace or add to Oni's .bsl files to create interesting and often amusing results. They can change everything from the fog to how the characters and level interact. However, they cannot add new characters or change the level layout, as that data is fixed by the [[OBD|Binaries]]. They are great examples of what can be achieved simply by typing into a text file. The possibilities are simply endless.  

Probably the best specimens of Scripted Mods are the [[ONK:OTA|Oni Team Arena]] scripts. Based on the desire for a multi-player mode in Oni, and inspired by Unreal Tournament, they augment Oni's hand-to-hand combat and gunplay with a scoring system much like Unreal Tournament's DeathMatch.

Other scripted mods range from free-for-all arenas to objective-based missions and enhancements of the original levels. They can spice up the gameplay and provide a more exciting experience to those who have finished the game. They keep the game alive, outside of its original levels.
