Fitzquake servers never sends the interval if it is the default value of 0.1. So the most common case doesn't have a problem. For all other intervals, the maximum error is 0.001953125 seconds. Is this ever noticeable to a player? If it is noticeable, then you should choose a new protocol number. Oth...

Login informations are lost too often. In inside3d I was always logged on (at least for a whole week) but now, login informations don't last even an hour (every new tab I've to re-login to post) I have noticed this also, I now realize the difference is the login isn't stored in a cookie as most web...

i'm a total noob in shaders, but is all this necessary? I would think you can just draw a textureless quad over the whole screen, with a fragment shader that takes the destination color, modifies it with the gamma function, and then writes it to the output.

explanation of "nearwaterportal" This part is from glquake: if camera is close to a waterplane, something called "FatPVS" is used to combine the PVS from a cube of 8 sample points. This is to compensate for the water plane being clipped by the near clipping plane in openGL (resul...

glad to see this bug finally vanquished.

rubicon2 has code for a "sleeping" monster_floyd. I added a new spawnflag and it modifies the AI so they don't wake up you unless directly damaged or triggered by scripting (e.g. grabbing an item.) I also have a different animation loop and skin frame (so the normally glowing visor is dark)

this bug has annoyed me forever. Glad it's finally been tracked down!

Does FitzQuake have a "no animation interpolation" flag? I don't have the code handy ATM. I recall FQ is coded not to interpolate automatic animations like torches. The particles are based on Engoo, with some horizontal velocity added to stick to walls. There is a cvar which is just a lis...

This is documented on quakedev.com's wiki, which of course is dead now. I should post the documentation on my own site i guess, that wiki was pretty much doomed from the start.

metlslime: neither - nor ~ should break stuffcmd. However, neither one would do the job. First, there's quoting: nq-x11 +map '"-mapname"'. Then, there's the fact ~ doen't toggle the console for me (I have a Japanese keyboard and I taught QF to use hankaku/zenkaku (same place as ~ on US ke...

[p.s. one fun thing about writing pak source code, you could change it a bit like so the header doesn't have, say, "PACK". And then for most mortals, they'd never be able to figure out a way to --- say --- see what maps are available if you chose to use it in that way. Why would you care?...

it won't merge them if they differ somehow -- for example different textures, or different texture alignment. For your floor, perhaps you can make two identical textures and alternate them like a checkerboard. Since no two adjacent tiles share the same texture, they won't be merged. I won't ask why ...

I'm curious how "detail" is supported in a meaningful way in Q1 BSP

I think the slowest part of taking a screenshot is actually finding an available filename; once you have 50-100 existing screenshots the directory scan really bogs down. I'm sure there's an obvious better way but never got around to fixing it.

Even local clients choke over wifi (at least on my particular network) so I commented out that exception in Fitzquake. Any multiplayer gets 1400 //johnfitz -- if client is nonlocal, use smaller max size so packets aren't fragmented //if (Q_strcmp (client->netconnection->address, "LOCAL") ...
