Description

This mod makes it so that any Rocketeer that spawns has a chance to become either a Firecracker or a Bomber from previous Serious Sam games. This is based off the same randomization method as my (recently updated) UFOs mod. The percent chances of each type showing up are as follows:
Rocketeer - 37.5%
Firecracker - 37.5%
Bomber - 25%

There is a Netricsa entry both the Firecracker and Bomber, should you happen to kill either one. (They're not much, but still)

Notes:
-Any Rocketeer that exists on the map when simulation starts and *isn't* spawned from a spawner will be a Rocketeer 100% of the time (read: that one Rocketeer at the very start of the first level)
-During online play, it takes a bit for the Character Tools to cache on client ends, so all Beheaded Soldiers will be invisible to clients for a short period after spawning
-If you're a client with the mod and the server does not have the mod, all Beheaded Soldiers will be invisible (except for their gun). It's suggested you disable the mod before joining random online games
-The death messages for getting killed by either the Firecracker or Bomber are inaccurate (it'll say Rocketeer/Kamikaze respectively). I tried to replace the line for the Rocketeer so that it's universal, but apparently that just didn't work
-If the Firecracker or Bomber are gibbed while using the Red Blood and Gore skin, their dismembered body will have the Rocketeer's shirt color. Due to implementation, there's literally no way I can make the gibs vary per type. (Which is also why the Bomber doesn't gib automatically on death)
-The new Netricsa entries will sometimes fail to load the model when switching from original Netricsa entries. Reloading Netricsa *should* fix it. Also, sometimes the first text box doesn't show up, but this also happens with the original Rocketeer, so I don't know.

Credits:
-Firecracker and Bomber body textures shamelessly stolen from Solais' Ultimate Resource Pack. Also, some parameters are somewhat based off of the Beheaded Soldiers in that

Could you make this compatible with Fusion?

Before there were plenty of campaign modifications to give us these guys at planned locations, this was the mod to have. As such I'm no longer using this mod, but I am rating it up for getting us all through those trying times.

I dont like this.
It just corrupts ORIGINAL game, You dont want to play original villa or campaign when this sh!t making all harder! And if mapper have this downloaded when making a map, all players need to have this too :(
So NOPE. Dont mess up original game!

you should make a randomized weapons drop. like, a kamikaze with a laser gun equipped but not visable and would still drop it, having a spawn chance of very very low? that'd be cool wouldnt it?
