Hi guys!
I've been playing WWP on my PS1 for years and I got used to Drops only multiplayer scheme. Just wondering is there any chance to get/make one for my PC?
Tried schemeEddy but it does not work on my Win7...

tnx

What is the "Drops Only" scheme, exactly?

Players start with no weapons, just ninja rope x4, blow torch x2, parachute x2, bungee x2, pneumatic drill x2, girder x2, single teleport and special weapon for which you have to wait several turns to be available (depending on what kind of special weapon your team use). Before the first turn, a first create is dropped and race for the creates and best positions begin. After each turn one additional create is dropped on terrain until there are max 5 creates there. Creates are not cheap, it's not a rare case to get a banana bomb, cows or sheeps, thou super weapons like carpet bomb, sheep strike and ming vase appear maybe once in a single battle. But the most valuable create you can get in such a long game is the one with ninja rope ;)
I think thats it. Really strategic scheme and approx. every 3rd game eds up like the battle of the trenches (if thats how you say that :-/). Rounds last for half an hour, and in special cases it can prolong to almost an hour long match.

I think drops only is a wormpot mode. (Wormpot is that thing in the local game menu under the schemes selection)

Yea, but why isn't it available under create a multiplayer game? I'm not looking to play online...

Eh?? It is. That's just what I said :confused:

In the wormpot mode menu are only available options like "no weapons, only creates" and "creates, creates and even more creates" but that isn't what I'm looking for :-/
I'm looking for exact scheme (described above) that I used to play on my PS1 console.
Weird thing that it sin't available in PC version :-/
Any ideas?

If I recall correctly, the Playstation versions of WA and WWP had a small number of additions that weren't in the PC versions. I'm guessing that mode was one of them.

Does the Playstation version of the game let you edit this Drops Only scheme? If yes, simply have a look at the values of different settings, recreate them in the PC version of the game and save the scheme for later use.

I thought that was obvious enough, not sure why nobody else suggested you try it.

Yes, it's obvious, and that was the first thing i tried when I installed PC version. PS version does not let you see/edit scheme but you can get the basic info about scheme from playing it (3 sec mine fuse, 5 sec after turn, 10 sec before turn, sudden death options). Those are the editable options, but what happens is that I can't get to make the game drop a create before every turn (in drops only mode it is supposed to drop the create before every turn untill there are max 5 creates on a landscape), creates keep falling every 5th-6th turn even thou I had set in game scheme options 100% create dropping. :-/

Maybe that's a bug. In the latest version of WA for PC, if you set crate chance to maximum, a crate of that type drops every turn as expected.

It's probably the same bug as in the DS version of Worms: Open Warfare 2 then, as that game's based on the latest patches by Team17 on the second generation of the series. There was, in fact, a drops only scheme for ranked games which simply didn't work. Crates only dropped randomly and quite rarely, too, instead of before every single turn as they were supposed to.

Problem solved!
It appears that creates drop randomly only if health and utility creates are also set up in the game. When turned off, weapon creates are dropping normally - every turn - until there are 5 of them.

Thanks for help & tips guys! ;)

This is also possible in Worms Armageddon (read this (http://worms2d.info/RubberWorm#Continuous_crate_shower)
