Sorry. 

sock and mfx's maps have the runes. obd, mountain, crucial, swampy 

The zombie knights, the new death knights, those flail knights are all animated really well, and I'm curious as to what program(s) was used for it?

Absolutely incredible mod, feels like a sequel to Quake would, at least in my head anyway. 

I'm having a problem (bug ?) with the rune in Obd. While I've found all secrets and activated all buttons, killed everybody, the rune is there but can't take it. I tried easy mode and activated God mode so I don't have to redo the map again and again just to get the rune (that map is really labyrinthic, and it's pretty long to get to the end).

This is the last rune that I have to take, and it's getting frustrating.

I suspect a bug.

Any clue what may happen ? 

is it possible that this is bugged? I'm pretty sure I'm at the end but the exit doesn't open. I've only found 6/8 tomes but surely they aren't required to exit the map... 

My posts here have been a bit whiny so I thought I'd also say that this mod is completely fantastic, totally blown away by the depth and the amount of work it implies. And all for a 20 year old game, for free! 

maybe you owe me a beer, but only maybe.

The exit on swampy is indeed broken on easy
i did this to collect some money from you being pissed off by this,
no this happened while last minute changes weren't being tested properly by me. Sorry, maybe i will fix this soon. 

and I'm having zero issues playing this. Just curious if anyone knows why not as the "shortcut" warning above is so adamant? 

im sueing you. 

 

I'm still having a problem with the rune on Odb. I'm now pretty sure it's a bug.

I played a full game without cheating, in easy mode, and killed every monster on the map, found all 10 secrets, pushed all buttons, took the book, etc, but the rune is still not walkable. It's there above its bars with the bubbles on it. Whatever what I do, I can't get the rune.

Even impulse 11 don't work. 

I can confirm it is not bugged and is collectible.

You clearly did NOT push all the buttons. You get a message related to the rune when you push the ones needed. 

It's fine, using a launcher like SQLauncher is the same as using a shortcut.

The reason the readme is adamant about using a shortcut is that some engines have a "game" console command that doesn't exec quake.rc (like Quakespasm), this causes problems for this mod.

Its not a bug, you have to think laterally, you can stand under and on top of the crushers in the final room! ;) 

It's a disaster 

I'm still unable to get the rune. It is showing up there, above the bars. I can go inside that tube and walk on the rune, but nothing happens. I'm unable to remove the bars (so the rune fall on the ground, right ?). Of course, I pressed both buttons above that final room (so the rune appears above the bars). I also played alot with the crushers. I'm still stuck.

I played your previous version of this map, that you released some times ago. It was working great. Ok, I know that you made some changes for the ad pack. But did you changed the interaction with the rune too ? 

Thanks and woops no litigation was intended. 

Can't the worldspawn function check for the status a boolean variable, then if false perform a localcmd of exec quake.rc? quake.rc could set the variable to true by default. 

I need to know this, if it's really NOT a bug.

Is it normal that walking on that rune shown below (with "magic" bubbles), doesn't take the rune ?

As you can see, I'm inside the tube, with crusers in the up position.
I also killed 302/302 monsters, and found 10/10 secrets.

So what am I missing if this is not a bug ? 

3 party point of view:

A. The screen shot does not show the HUD, therefore one cannot judge if you already have the rune.

B. If you really want to be helpful, you should provide a save game file which would allow someone to examine what you are experiencing. 

I think it might be possible. If you used say the scratch1 var maybe? 

@Barnak
Just took the rune in that map. It works fine. I pressed all the buttons.
Maybe you didn't get the tome of power, if it's related?

btw, propos to the maker of the map. I spent easily 15 minutes, 50 shells and 20 nails searching for the way to open the purple key vault. I didn't think of look up from the arena place until I had wasted lots of ammo thinking the button was hidden inside a breakable.
I couldn't find the last secret, though. Only 9/10 :(

The same happened in ionous' map. eighth secret is well hidden!

Death Wish looks amazing! 

Setting it up is turning out to be a fucking nightmare :) so I give up
