@hondobondo:
Thanks ! I´ll give this a try ! I like the cel shading look.
About copyright stuff:
Frankly, I would care too much...

Hey frag.machine,

nice to see someone else playing Malice. Unfortunately I spent never enough time to finish the final level. I guess you talk about this one:

This is really ridiculous ! No matter with which weapons you start. How could you defeat this ...

I am still thinking about what to do with the first map. I guess I'll eventually scrap it and try another layout, using the same theme.
Hm, well I wouldn´t scrape it completely...
It plays quite nice doesn´t it ? A least I like it.

It just could be a bit brighter. :D

BTW: Which editor did you ...

Ok, short update:
Since I was too tired yesterday, I gave the new SQD version a quick try in the morning (is this what they call breakfast fragging ? ).

@frag.machine:
I like the new map ! Plays nicely. If you add a small fort in the middle (may be as variation for a third map ?) I think this give ...

@hondobondo:
Cool, I will check out the new patch ! BTW: Did you include my modified code ? I mean the one with the lowercased references.

@frag.machine:
Thnx, I will testplay this evening !
In regard to the helper bots I agree...
It also happens sometimes that helper bot of bots fire at you.

In ...

@frag.machine:
a nice map ! Thanks...

Just a few comments:
- I find a map a bit too dark. Could have a higher light level.

- It could be a bit bigger. Generally I rather like to play the more open maps with wider areas. Esp. with the weapons of mass destruction *ggg*

- You could add a tunnel with ...

Nice to see another quake engine out there with native support for 64 bit Linux.

Runs fine here on Ubuntu 9.10 x64.

I have one question:
Are there any chances that quakespasm supports Superduper Quake ?
For me it simply "dies" when I try to launch SDQuake game. Other engines (e.g. darkplaces ...

@hondobondo:
Thnx for your reply ! It would be nice if you could post the modified qc code here. I would be willing to test ;)

@frag.machine:
Thanks for your replies. I am afraid that it would take aeons until I understand the sdq sources good enough to make a clean modification.
I like the idea ...

Havent' checked the SDQ sources, but the weapon inventory system surely is different from vanilla QC.
Hm, SDQ doesn't seem so different to me right now. There is a weapons.qc which essentially has all the "logic" encapsuled for all the weapons.

I've found now the code part with the impulse ...

Apologies, I should have updated the links here when PQ cancelled hosting.

Thanks !
No need to apologize ...

Hi all,

yes, I like reviving the dead :)

Zombies rule ! :wink:

@frag.machine:
OK, I've take a colser look to the bot_fight.qc and think I understand where the weapons are selected.
It's within "void(float brange) bot_weapon_switch =" (line 373) where the impulse command is set.

What I still do not get is which impulse triggers each weapon. From what I know ...

I'd suggest to remove any WMD entirely from bot's arsenal.

Agreed ! That would be the simplest approach. I can live with the bots not being able to nuke as long as I can nuke myself :D

Unfortunately I am not completely shure what triggers the weapons change for the frikabot inside SDQuake.

I ...

Hi hondobondo,

are there any chances that in the future update the bots within SDQuake behave less suicidal ?

I am not shure what causes this behaviour but I often experience being in the middle of multiple MIRV, orbital bombardement, etc. when I play SDQuake together with bots. This is a pitty ...

Hi hondobondo,

it seems to me that you misunderstood me. I do not wanted you do run or compile anything for/on Linux.

The issues with DarkPlaces and SDQuake are simply caused by the case sensitivity for filenames which Linux has.

I'm afraid that I used the wrong QCC sources for my experiment ...
