Topic: Mod Request - Mapper-friendly mod with darkplaces features
Replies: 39

I made a mod a long time ago, it began from Reltest, that had basically every mapper-centric feature I could think of - nearly everything from both mission packs, painkeep's mapping stuff and all the stuff from Custents. It was a monstrosity. I wouldn't mind doing it over as kind of a quick thing fo...

If you want to add bots to your mod and not instead mod a bot's code base there's only three I know of: FrikBot, GlacierBot (FrikBot based) and Tutorbot. If you're open to using decompiled code there's also the Reaper and Zeus bots. If you're open to modifying the bot's code base instead of adding t...

Re: *blush*

While I feel very flattered that FrikaC thinks my opinion should matter here, I also feel QExpo is a concept that needs to move with its time and,while it's cool to have the opinions of the Q1 old farts (like me), I personally enjoy seeing the decision-making process go from hand(s) to hand(s). I d...

I have a new version of Qake almost ready, with deathmath/coop and a QuakeC VM using KrimZon's kzqcvm implementation. If I can find maybe 10-12 hours before June 19th I can get some of the kinks worked out and make it ready for release. Work has been a bit devastating to my time though. If I can get...

I'd say right before the event lock new registrations, do a pass and check for any booths that seem suspect, email the people that registered for those booths to see if they seem sane. Then open it to the public. No registering once it's underway. I think this is how the first expo worked. Some of t...

Does this site have the official backing of the Quake 1 modding community? The answer matters. What matters to me personally is CocoT's seal of approval. CocoT invented the very idea of the QExpo. I say we make a faux monarchy of approval system. CocoT gives approval first, should he be unable to f...

I can't speak for Joe the Player. Things I want are modding-centric because that's what I do. Things mappers want are mapper specific because that's what they do. Things QW players want are things that make their QW game more unfair..err...I mean 'fun'....yeah. Things engine coders want are crazy te...

Something that hasn't been mentioned is self becomes the ThrowHead, in this case the knight becomes h_knight.mdl, where as the ThrowGib are new entities that are spawned like when firing a rocket. I kinda did when I said ThrowHead is basically a clone of ThrowGib with one important difference, inst...

Last thing I dont understand is, why is the head-gib always lying/positioned on the floor like it is modelled/visible in QME. (example: soldiers head is looking upwards) And all 3 other gibs are lying in a random position/condition. I couldnt find the code that is responsible for this. There's a fe...
