Was there already a long discussion at some point in the history of this board for why the Coding Help thread *shouldn't* be a permanent thread? Because it seems like it should be.

I am making a mod,but it wont compile.
I have spent one year making this plus correcting bugs,and on top of that school.So please,could someone help me? Fix fusion2.zip.

Quaketastic.com ,file in the QC Mistakes dir.

If anyone wants to use this then please put something like
modname/authorname_qc_date in DD/MM/YYYY .ZIP OR .7Z

THANK YOU,

Alos +1 vote for Quake Engines sticky, and Other PC Games thread sticky. Jury's out on CZG's Anus sticky but you can guess where my vote lies. 

So I tried to clean up my qc a little bit and moved all the precaches in the worldspawn into its own function:
void worldspawn() =
{
(...)
precacheSounds();
precacheModels();
(...)
};

But now FTEQCC spams me with these warnings, even though it obviously works and these sounds are being precached:

player_movement.qc:80: warning F210: Sound "misc/water1.wav" was used but not precached
note: suppressed 12 more warnings about precaches.
Compile finished: ../progs.dat (id format)
Done. 22 warnings

Any way to get it to recognize that the precaches actually take place or disable this warning? I've already removed all other warnings from the source, so it'd be nice to have an actual clean compile for once.

This is in FTEQCC: Feb 11 2017 

precache_sound() vs sound() calls go based upon string immediates that are passed in. if you're not using an immediate then fteqcc can't read/check it for you.
I guess you're looping through an array to precache your sounds (thus no immediates, so fteqcc can't see them), so either use the same lookup in your sound calls as in your precache_sound calls, or just '#pragma warning disable F210' to disable those warnings. 

I just literally pulled all the precache calls from worldspawn out into a new method:

void precacheSounds() =
{
precacheSound ("misc/menu1.wav");
precacheSound ("misc/menu2.wav");
precacheSound ("misc/menu3.wav");
precacheSound ("misc/torchon2.wav");
precacheSound ("misc/spark.wav");
//and then ~200 more lines of the same...

I'll probably just disable the warning for now. It's easy enough to notice when you've forgotten to precache something. 

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... 

Hmmm...

This is madness. I should not be doing this.

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?
