Thank you Spirit.

No blood while shooting secret doors, buttons or triggers.
I hope it uses another distinct color for those particles (e.g. orange sparks), not the gray ones. The player needs to be able to recognize that something is shootable so he knows it's possible to interact with the object = shoot it some more until something happens. If there's no visual cue, only the gray particles that suggest solid walls, he won't try further and potentially miss stuff or get unnecessarily confused.
Just saying, in case anyone is going to do something similar in their mods (because I still regret not having protested strongly enough when this bad feature was added in Travail...).

About the "progdef.h out of date" error I fixed it, but I noticed the mod uses some darkplaces extensions... :( Until I find a way around the lack of strcat darkplaces is needed...


About particles, yes. iq used the wizard and hell knight ``sparks'' instead of the default ones on the secret doors. No bloody trails, yet obviously different.

Many engines support strcat in qc so that may not be a deal-breaker. In QIP engine, FrikaC/Maddes added Q_Strcat extension in 2001 assigned to #115. That matches DP number. A lot of engines have copied QIP or DP.

(Finally I have my own name!)

Thanks for the information, so since I solved the progdef.h problem iq should be playable in more engines.
