help change starting weapons

[Hazematman]

Hey just a quick question, which quake C file contains the code that tells you which weapons to start with, or is that coded into the engine?

[ceriux]

Code: Select all

oid() SetChangeParms =
{
   if (self.health <= 0)
   {
      SetNewParms ();
      return;
   }

// remove items
   self.items = self.items - (self.items &
   (IT_KEY1 | IT_KEY2 | IT_INVISIBILITY | IT_INVULNERABILITY | IT_SUIT | IT_QUAD) );
   
// cap super health
   if (self.health > 100)
      self.health = 100;
   if (self.health < 50)
      self.health = 50;
   parm1 = self.items;
   parm2 = self.health;
   parm3 = self.armorvalue;
   if (self.ammo_shells < 25)
      parm4 = 25;
   else
      parm4 = self.ammo_shells;
   parm5 = self.ammo_nails;
   parm6 = self.ammo_rockets;
   parm7 = self.ammo_cells;
   parm8 = self.weapon;
   parm9 = self.armortype * 100;
};

void() SetNewParms =
{
   parm1 = IT_SHOTGUN | IT_AXE;
   parm2 = 100;
   parm3 = 0;
   parm4 = 25;
   parm5 = 0;
   parm6 = 0;
   parm7 = 0;
   parm8 = 1;
   parm9 = 0;
};

void() DecodeLevelParms =
{
   if (serverflags)
   {
      if (world.model == "maps/start.bsp")
         SetNewParms ();      // take away all stuff on starting new episode
   }
   
   self.items = parm1;
   self.health = parm2;
   self.armorvalue = parm3;
   self.ammo_shells = parm4;
   self.ammo_nails = parm5;
   self.ammo_rockets = parm6;
   self.ammo_cells = parm7;
   self.weapon = parm8;
   self.armortype = parm9 * 0.01;
};

which quake C file

client.qc

answered!

[Hazematman]

Ok much appreciated for telling me the file. thanks!

[Mexicouger]

You need to modify this stuff in Client.qc

Code: Select all

void() SetNewParms =
{
   parm1 = IT_SHOTGUN;    // Modify this little piece to             whatever weapon you want
   parm2 = 99;
   parm3 = 0;
   parm4 = 100;
   parm5 = 1;
   parm6 = 0;
   parm7 = 0;
   parm8 = 1;  //This is the actual weapon you start with. 1= IT_SHOTGUN
   parm9 = 0;
   parm10 = 0;
};

To add weapons to start with, in parm1, Do this:

Code: Select all

parm1 = IT_SHOTGUN | IT_AXE | IT_ROCKET_LAUNCHER;

| means or. So you can cycle between any of the weapons you add. Still learning myself

Hazematman ...

Could you post these questions in the QuakeC section in the future?

Because you aren't posting a tutorial and they really don't go here.

I know you are new, it's no big deal. But still this section is for posting tutorials.

[Hazematman]

Ok, I did not know that il post my next question in that section. thanks for telling me.
