A while ago, I came up with an idea for how to let the mapper create encounters that were random, but in a controlled way (so that the mapper has control over the "worst case" scenario). It can be used to:

- Randomly select a monster or an item from a group and put it at a specific location ...

Changing it would mean that you could jump over it without picking it up. That's about the only difference...

I've used it. The maps it makes are in no way balanced for difficulty. Also, the maps are really desinged to be played with DPMod.

I believe that it only genereates if it needs to be changed (unlike FrikQCC that always generates it).

Doing curves "by eye" is risky.

I made a spreadsheet that works out where the points on cuves should be: http://pineapple.servegame.com/circle_room.ods

It assumes that you're making a circle (although you can use just the first part to make a half or quarter circle as needed). C2 should have the ...

Unless you're trying to make it look like a seamless curve (which I think it impossible), the best thing to do is to is to make it a polygon, but with the corners at strategic places. You can go for precision, but it's better if all of the corners are on integer co-ordinates (can cause problems if ...

Doesn't Baker's re-release of the GLQuake source code have all of the hassle dealt with, so that it should just compile?

Hold on to this thought. Something coming before the end of the month...

hmap2 -light -extra mapname

or

hmap2 -light -extra4x4 mapname

Pretty much your only option is to do it all by hand...

CSQC is a long-term joke of the Quake community that stopped being funny a long time ago and is now just getting old...

Probably a mistake by Id, yes.

Note that if you remove them, you need to remove them from both model and code, otherwise animations will look very strange.

If you do remove them from both, pretty much nothing will change. If you want to see a change happening, find the functions that use those ...

The sprint might be failing because self is not a player. Try dprint instead, and remove the entity argument from the function call. Then remember to set the developer cvar to 1.

Something you could try is have the rocket play the sound on a different channel each time. This would make the sounds overlap a little but, and then you'd also avoid the horrible noise of the sound being retriggered.

It's not possible for sounds to travel as they are ebing played. The only way would be the rocket retriggering the sound as it moves along...
I suppose that immediately after the rocket is spawned I could spawn another entity in front of the rocket. As soon as the rocket touches this entity the ...
