From what I read in his blog I understand he's writing everything from scratch - a considerable effort, I recognize. But, for his poor programming language choice, I must echo your "eeewww", too

Just for curiosity: why are you trying to replicate the lightning beam in QuakeC ? :roll: EDIT: A little time ago, I've seen in slow-motion (host_framerate 0.001) the original one fires dozens of bolt2.mdl forward. And I've seen that they've avelocity_z set to some very high value. And I've noticed ...

Dude, you have the gift to low-poly modelling. Do you intend to make new monsters, too ? I could try to write some QC if you consider to add monsters to Prydon.

I'd like to add an observation: altough the SNG+quad combo is my preferred weapon (because this combo gives me the ability to quickly gib anything in my way, without the RL recoiling time), during DM my primary target will be always the RL, for obvious reasons. People should take this in considerati...

I AM A DANCING MACH1N3

All models looks really nice. An excellent job!

In an off-topic note, I'm glad to see somebody else from Brazil in the Quake community. From what I understand, theres a decent sized Quake community in Brazil, though mostly QW players as opposed to NQ or coders. However I dont speak Portugese, and many others dont speak English. I will say howeve...

And if you play with them in a map with liquids, they won't swim, they'll sink like a rock and make the splash noise when landing on the liquid's floor. They can swim up, but rarely, and they can jump out of water onto ledges. The swimming AI is the worst part to code, unfortunately. I'm doing some...

/me looks to FrikaC hoping to convince him to finish his legendary model editor

Well, some people actually do think qME is fairly competent :P I won't argue, I am just too lazy and so used to the QuArK + StudioMDx combo that I simply hated qME when I tried it. I was expecting FrikaC model editor to finally bring something that could motivate me to change, but looks like it won...

Quake weapon models don't have reloading animations. Unfortunately, the entire game was rushed in a very unpolished way in many aspects, weapons animations and placement being one of this (according John Romero, weapons were not supposed to be placed in the bottom center of screen, and there should ...

Dr. Shadowborg is correct.
http://tremor.quakedev.com/ is the right place to report the bug.
Also, you may want to mail the author (Justin Thyme): justinthyme at quakedev dot com

BTW, here's my last version: (tested with plain vanilla QC code): http://www.inside3d.com/pastebin.php?action=show&id=138 Now monsters randomly start to walk for a bit, then stop for a while, then start to walk in another direction... in E1M1, dogs wander for really long distances, but the grunt...

The fact is, adding more intelligence almost requires you rewriting the entire monster code. And this means a lot of work.

1. If a monster don't have a melee attack, it should keep distance from the player (so at least it does not get into line of sight of another monsters); 2. I don't see any problem if humanoid monsters (except zombies, because they NEED to be dumb) were able to avoid grenades. 3. melee-only monsters ...
