Quake 1 player height in Hammer units

[JasonX]

What is it?

[Spike]

32+24=56

[frag.machine]

32+24=56

Quake units.

[Mexicouger]

or

10 +6 -2 / 2 + 3 * 5 - 3 + 9 = 56

Quake Units

[frag.machine]

or

10 +6 -2 / 2 + 3 * 5 - 3 + 9 = 56

Quake Units

I just added the note because I was not sure if there's a 1=1 correlation between Worldcraft units and Quake units.

[Spike]

Well technically its 32--24. But double minus is a positive.

[Mexicouger]

So in coding, What would this add up to?

-12 -12 -24, 12 12 10??

Would it be like 14 or -14?

I am confused on how to add these....

[Arkage]

Its calculated relative to the players origin, so that would be 14, 14, 34.

I need to know what Number to specify In SV_HullForEntity. Right Now, For the Morphball, I have

Code: Select all

VectorSubtract (maxs, mins, size);
      if (size[0] < 3)
         hull = &model->hulls[0];
      else if (size[0] == 14)
         hull = &model->hulls[1];
      else
         hull = &model->hulls[2];

I put

Code: Select all

else if (size[0] == 14)
         hull = &model->hulls[1];

Do you think This will work or if there is a more Efficient way to do that. Because If its lower than 3, Then it's 0.

If I was to go

Code: Select all

else if (size[0] >= 14)
         hull = &model->hulls[1];

Would that Work?[/code]

A quake player's feet end 24 units below the player's origin.
The top of his head is 32 units above the origin.
This makes the player 56 units tall, as mentioned in my first post in this topic.
The eyes are at origin+22.
Projectiles fire from origin+16.
Maximum step height is 18 units.
You cannot step into a hole in a wall unless the hole's top is 18+56 units higher than the floor you were leaving, but you can probably jump through it. Leaving such a hole is not an issue.
Small passageways are generally 64 units high. This at least resolves most issues with floating point inprecisions.
Regular doors are 128 units high. Passageways this high permit jumping around comfortably.

A halflife player is 72 units high. 36 units in each direction. I think. I don't remember the crouching size.

..Metroid like game?

[Mexicouger]

Yes, And I am confused on that part right there. I Don't know what to put because I don't know what the overall number is.

Spike's post explained how it works.

[Sajt]

"size" is set to "maxs - mins".

If you think in 1D (not 3D), a character who is 8 units wide and is centred on the origin (zero), his "mins" is -4 and his "maxs" is 4. "4 - (-4)" is 8. In 3D there are three mins values and three maxs values, but it still works the same way.
