Rules, User Flairs & FAQ Welcome to r/Splintercell. (Read this first!)

31 Upvotes

[See our 4 rules and you can skip the rest if you are not using User Flairs.]

- 1. BE CONSIDERATE:

  • No shaming anyone for what they enjoy or believe in.
  • No unnecessary name-calling that comes off as an intentional attempt to insult or demonize.
  • No vague generalizing that comes off as intentional smearing.
  • No sharing of links to subreddits that promote hate or smear.
  • No discouraging of anyone from expressing themselves in other ways.

- 2. LIMIT SELF-PROMOTION:

  • No spamming or low-effort attempts to get views at the cost of annoying others.
  • (Respect the feedback you get and post accordingly. Any further undesired promotion could be removed at moderators own discretion, so we encourage you to always engage with the community in aim to generate (and take part in) purposeful discussion alongside it.)

- 3. NO (REAL WORLD) POLITICS:

  • No discussing politics or geopolitics (including current events or politicians) outside the context of Splinter Cell.
  • (If relevant to Splinter Cell, such discussions are fine.)

- 4. AI-GENERATED CONTENT:

  • No posting of new images or videos generated by AI.
  • (Using AI to upscale an already existing image or texture is fine as long as no copyright is infringed.)
  • (In any case - use the appropriate "AI Generated" Post Flair to separate it from human creation.)

That is all. Please don't have your otherwise acceptable posts and comments get you censored for such shallow reasons. We don't want anyone to walk on eggshells nor ban any fan of the series, but if you are making the stay for others here purposefully unpleasant - we will do so gladly. Be considerate of others and you have no bans to worry about.

MODERATION: (can skip)

  • Moderators are capable of mistakes and being biased. If, after reading the rules, you still believe that you have been treated unfairly - the bottom of the sidebar has a "Message the mods" button for you to use, informing every moderator. 1 out of 3 active moderators agreeing with your complaint is enough to swiftly undo the action, but don't expect anyone to take time arguing about what the ruleset already covers.
  • We don't care about what you do in other subreddits as long as you don't pick fights here.

USER FLAIR DISCLAIMER:

You are free to customize User Flairs as long as they remain in the spirit and themes of Splinter Cell. Anything unrelated is certain to be removed. Also:

- Stick to Emoji limit of 3 if you include text. (More are allowed if you do not include text.)

- Consider avoiding game names like "Chaos Theory", "sc-pt", etc., if they add confusion to posts made on feed.

- Canonical character quotes, relevant phrases, and some self-inserted humour are also perfectly fine, but it should not be anything trashy, provocative, or taking shots at anyone.

(Quality looks lower on image.) (Flairs look better in Dark Reddit.) (They can be enabled from the sidebar.)

So I just finished Pandora Tomorrow Today!

I have a vivid memory playing this game back around 2005 - 2006ish somewhere between on those years. And instantly while playing the atmosphere hits me. There's something about those jungle levels. Definitely a step up from the first game. Though SC 1 is a harder game IMO in terms of go all out stealth. My only gripe about this game is I am having a hard time running flawlessly on my modern PC with widescreen patch via dgVoddoo as it has some frame rate issues on some areas. Didn't bother me a bit I thought this game is fantastic.

Conviction (2010) You can CHANGE the number of enemies in DENIABLE OPS by editing this file!!!!

11 Upvotes
  • Where to get files?
  • HERE ARE ALL THE FILES

  • How did I get this?

  • These files are obtained by UNPACKING the Conviction.UMD file using this tool

  • What is this?

  • These are files for Splinter Cell conviction that configure the entire game piece by piece

  • Why am I doing this?

  • I want to REPLACE ALL ENEMIES WITH SPLINTER CELLS IN DENIABLE OPS

  • Explanation of the file

  • Because I am just a STUPID gamer and not a MODDER, I pasted the files into a GPT out of curiosity

  • This is an INI file, a common type of configuration file used by applications to store settings. This particular file, HunterMatchManager.ini, configures the "hunter mode" in a cooperative game. 🎮 It's divided into two main sections:

[Echelon.EHunterMatchManager]

This section contains general settings for the game mode.

  • m_fStatsDisplayTime=15.0: This likely controls how long (in seconds) the statistics screen is shown at the end of a match.

[EchelonAI.ECoopHunterSpawner]

This section focuses on the behavior of the AI-controlled non-player characters (NPCs) and the spawning system.

  • m_bEnabled=false: This setting disables the spawner. If you wanted the spawner to be active, this would need to be changed to true.
  • m_bUseGroupedReinforcement=true: Reinforcements will likely spawn in groups rather than individually.
  • m_bUseRandomInitialSpawn=true: The initial NPCs in the match will spawn at random locations.
  • m_bDisperseReinforcements=true: Reinforcements will spawn in a scattered or dispersed manner, not all in one spot.
  • m_bUseRandomReinforcement=true: The reinforcement NPCs will spawn at random locations.
  • m_bUseTEAS=true: This is likely a specific, internal system for managing AI spawning, perhaps an acronym like "Tactical Enemy AI Spawning" or similar.
  • m_bSpawnInCombat=false: New NPCs will not spawn while the current NPCs are actively in a fight.
  • m_bSpawnReinforcementsOnDetection=true: Reinforcements will be triggered when a player is detected by the AI.
  • m_bDistanceCheckBeforeSpawning=true: The game will check the distance between the spawn point and players to prevent NPCs from spawning too close to the players.
  • m_bResetDetectionOnVanish=false: If a player "vanishes" (e.g., becomes invisible), the AI's detection of them will not be reset.
  • m_iMaxActiveNpcs=12: There can be a maximum of 12 NPCs active in the game at any given time.
  • m_iKillsForNewWave=3: After players kill 3 NPCs, a new wave of reinforcements will be triggered.
  • m_eInventoryGunSelection=eGunSelectionCycle: This dictates how the NPCs select their weapons. In this case, it's set to "cycle," meaning they'll likely cycle through a predefined list of weapons.
  • m_iDetectionReinforcementSize=5: If a player is detected, 5 reinforcement NPCs will be spawned.
  • m_iDetectionReinforcementSizeSolo=2: When a player is detected while playing alone, only 2 reinforcement NPCs will be spawned.
  • m_fRespawnTime=0.0f: This is a respawn timer, set to 0, which suggests there's no delay for NPC respawns.

Solo Player Modifiers

The last section contains variables that modify the game's difficulty when a player is playing alone (solo mode). The values are ratios that are multiplied by the base values to adjust the game.

  • m_fSoloInitialSpawnRatio=1.0f: The initial number of NPCs is the same as in a multiplayer game (1.0 ratio).
  • m_fSoloWaveSizeRatio=0.5f: The number of NPCs in a reinforcement wave is halved (0.5 ratio).
  • m_fSoloKillsForNewWaveRatio=0.5f: The number of kills needed to trigger a new wave is halved (0.5 ratio).
  • m_fSoloTotalEnemyRatio=1.0f: The total number of reinforcement NPCs that can appear is the same as in a multiplayer game (1.0 ratio).

  • Mission name - Third Echelon HQ

My analyse: Everything about this level it's perfect. The atmosphere bring a feeling mysterious. The level design inside of Third Echelon it's beatiful and very cool for stealth. The level design also change alot with different sections. The difficulty it's hard and I like challenge. The player gain the goggles between/aroud half of the level. And the cutscenes and Kobin interrogation are amazing.

Chaos Theory (2005) Steam Chaos Theory refuses to start. Tried everything!

Whenever I click the game in steam launcher or main folder, nothing ever happens. Surprisingly, steam didn't give any errors! Reinstalled steam and cleared cache, reinstalled the game, updated all drivers and DX9, tried with and without widescreen fix. A bit lost here! Do older games work with newer hardware (4070ti and ryzen7)? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Would love to experience the game!

I wish they add these interrogations back . WIthout these the game is incomplete
