At it's best, Quake's AI is crap. Here's a list of reasons why I think this is:

1- Stupid engine function CheckClient(); only allows for monster vs human battles.
2- Movetogoal and Walkmove cause stupid zigzag motion.
3- They're deaf.
4- They're blind. AI codes attempts to mimick vision by using ...

Thanks everyone!Any others?

Seriously because csqc is such a hush hush topic, so i want as much help as i can :/

Ok I am about to explain how to write your floats before loading a new level. Then after you spawn in the new level, you will read the floats that you just wrote. So in the end, this allows for infinite parms!! Cool, huh?

In this tutorial I show how to save 3 floats, your angles(a vector), and your ...

You got some creative things there. Nice job. The idlescale thing is odd, though

Screenshot looks great! I really like the concept of the game.

I cannot download it now since 13 mb is too much for my internet (FML) but I really want to try it. Does it come with the source?

Ok, this code makes a traceline. that traceline will hit the wall in front of you, and change your angles to the wall's angles. AKA do this, then when you fire your weapon, the bullet will travel parallel to the wall. I'm using this code for AI navigation, but it can be put to other uses as well ...

why don't you register a cvar to use? of if you aren't using an engine capable of that, use one of quake's extra cvars?

or if you can, FRIK_FILE it.

Not sure if this is what spike means but quadrants are what you get when you divide the circle into 4 parts, eg 0-90, 90-180 and so on. What quadrant is called what might differ on context so I won't mention that.

i remember this in math class. thanks spirit.

So i guess there's no type of ...

okay, just got a few questions that are really driving me nuts.

1- whats the difference between a void() and a function()? I use voids all the time, and every once in a while the compiler spits out errors to me saying i need a function() instead of a void(). i change it, everything is fine after ...

Yeah, I just tested it and it didn't work. My bad.

I'll upload my light bulbs when i finish them.

Thanks alot! Sending the entity through to csqc is my next big step.

I'm behind_you

The frame method, to me, is superior because that would work in regular Quake. Where as transparent skins simply don't exist in normal Quake. At the start of the thread LordHavoc himself said that the mod should work without darkplaces as best it can

Well, you actually can. Just bake in another ...
