Pretty much.

K = (1/2)m v^2
Keeping initial energy constant (from the kick)- increasing m decreases v.

I'm well aware of Newtons laws - it was the OPs verbiage that threw me.

"Thats why I searched for a way to increase their weight by increasing the gravity for them. "

Anyway, if the gibs are flying off too hard, wouldn't you want to reduce the inital velocity, instead of increasing gravitational ...

I haven't looked at the QC source in a long while - but this thread makes it sound like gravity is some (global) scalar field related to mass.

As opposed to acceleration caused by gravitation.

Makes me wonder about Carmacks formal education. So yeh, I is. : ]

Wouldn't this make more sense if it were called 'mass' instead?

You're better off giving your variables names that convey their meaning or function.
local float a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h;
conveys nothing.

On the other hand:

vector v1;
float distance, brightness, radius;

Is a lot easier to understand and debug.

Moreso your vector algebra is way off. Consider ...

a = trace_endpos_x - source_x;
if (a < 0)
a = a * -1;
b = trace_endpos_y - source_y;
if (b < 0)
b = b * -1;
c = trace_endpos_z - source_z;
if (c < 0)
c = c * -1;
d = (a + b + c) / 3;

Averaging the three components? That seems wrong.

vec v1 = trace_endpos - source;
float distance = vlen ...

Has LordHavoc actually said that he is going to port DP to the PSP2?

Hello everyone,
after some Quake Engine Coding, and preparing Operations with some newer Tests on Quake, i really hate the Quake Model format's Vertex Animations and sucked up quake palette skin.
I was looking around here, and on quakesrc tutorials about implentation support for MD3 or so. And ...

No probs :

Cheers. I'm quite fond of #6. Looks lush.

You should at the very least annotate which mod each screenshot is from to give credit.

Secondly, only the engine is free - the content is still copyrighted. This means that you're not allowed to distribute Quake itself.

Wouldn't a sufficiently mature "Quake Remodeled" project combined with Romeros released MAP files sidestep this whole issue?

Edit: Although I suppose there is the ...

And where does using 3rd party, open source compiling tools stand? Is the format itself considered part of the SDK?
You'd really need to ask a lawyer about that.

There is historical precedent allowing clean room back-engineering. Presumably Ender employed these methods when he released his ...

Hi. I want to show a very interesting engine Smiley.
Xash a separate engine. Now at the stage of beta.
One of its features, support for half-life client, server, models, sounds, sprites e.t.c.
Map format: q3bsp
Included as a port SoHL ...

What's this? When I google all I see is a bunch of Russian.

The thing is, Darkplaces has a nice big QuakeC extensions wishlist that makes it easy on the modders. On the other hand, the half dozen PSP-Quake triple-A remake projects I've seen, seem to be struggling to get the basics done under the engine limitations.

Most successful projects (with the ...
