Is there a list of all the pragmas and other interesting settings supported by fteqcc?
I've noticed you can actually do a whole lot of macro fuckery with it, which might turn out to be either really good or really bad... This is madness. I should not be doing this.
http://pastebin.ca/3767491 Maths help please.
Given that: 1) I know the normal vector of a brush face. 2) I know the texture offset, scale and rotation on that brush face. 3) Quake's standard texture projection is being used (no fancy ETP stuff here, no sir) How do I then calculate the width and height (in quake units) of a texture pixel as it appears projected on that brush face? Why do I need to know this? Oh god, please don't ask :( Hacked it in by raycasting from rotated and scaled texture coordinates along the direction of the projection axis onto the face plane and then measuring the distance between the points where the rays hit the plane.
If anyone's wondering, I was tested some retarded idea in Unity. Conclusion: idea was in fact retarded. Dear Quake 1 community:
I'm looking for a SP mod for Quake 1 restoring the vomiting-tarbabies-Vomitus, the nailgun-ogre and the teleport-Vore/Wizard. I know you have very similar things in the community, but so far have been unable to identify them. May you help? Thank you! I made a mod a while back which restored the ogre nail thing. The grenades are better, waaaay, better.
I'm not saying give up, I'm saying you'll probably be disappointed in that functionality. Do there exist mods that add worldportals? If not, how could they be implemented? My understanding of binary space partitioning suggests that this should be possible without wierd, hacky solutions like complicated dynamic camera/teleport setups.
Can you guys think of anything that's saved in a standard savegame that is specific to a player's preference?
The only thing I can think of is the player netname, which might not be something you care about in a singleplayer game. Thinking about how feasible it is to include a savegame file with a map, for reasons I may not understand you correctly but...
Xonotic(Dark Places engine) has portals, and a member of Quake One, Nahuel I think, modified the QuakeC(progs.dat) for it to work in regular Quake(again DP only). I have mapped with it and teleports are not used at all. HTH's I did a map hacky thing which created a new adventure on e3m6 using a specially edited save game. As far as I know, nobody had any issues or any preferences overwritten by it.
PS: If you aren't combining this with the trigger_changelevel trick, then I sure will be sometime in the future... My attempt to convert my new model turned out wrong.
I took the code from soe.qc, deleted all new monster.qc and checked out the knight and hellknight. They both worked well. Then I transcripted one of the two codes to my own model, but as result it wouldn't appear. Is this statue code in someway assigned to these two monsters only, or is my code messed up? code it does, and it has a rather fancy skinn anim as the model in screenshots #14579 shows.
Why it is I don't know. I thought anim skin wasn't possible. I think I screwed up the blrg.atk1 and balrog.atk names. I thought the knight.qc and hknight.qc were ttached somewhere to the statue code only. Hi, please refer to this post where I describe a difference I found between how NetRadiant interprets angles versus how Quake 1 does (with regard to the orientation of models):
http://www.celephais.net/board/view_thread.php?id=61357&start=75 relevant image here: http://i.imgur.com/KpBsWHB.png I assume NetRadiant is geared up to conform to Quake 3's interpretation of angles. Is there a difference then between how Quake 1 and 3 do it - namely to do with angles_x being inverted? inverted pitch angles is an 'unfixable' clientside bug that was present in the original software renderer, that was replicated in glquake and all quake engines since.
bsps and sprites pitch correctly - like in *Radiant, and mdls (and by extension md3+iqm - hurrah for consistent inconsistencies) pitch the wrong way. makevectors uses 'proper' angles, but vectoangles is also affected by the bug. it was fixed for hexen2 and quake2, but if you want to run quake mods properly then things must remain 'broken', especially if you want to join a public server. probably the easiest way to deal with it is to create two separate entity types or something, then the mdl/md3/iqm version can just do self.angles_x *= -1. there shouldn't be any other angle issues, just that one. "I just literally pulled all the precache calls from worldspawn out into a new method:
void precacheSounds() = " are you still calling precacheSounds() within worldspawn or else where? Forgive me if this is more a general coding question but, is there a way to find a random number within a certain range? Like if I want a randomized x velocity from 150 to 300 for a gib
