Talk about anything in here. If you've got something newsworthy, please submit it as news. If it seems borderline, submit it anyway and a mod will either approve it or move the post back to this thread.

Yeah, it looks really cool! I can't wait to get my PC up and running again so I can download and try it.

Quake Webtools

#29702 posted by Qmaster on 2017/09/07 19:10:09

Is there a non-dragndrop version of the Quake Web Tools java model viewer? Windows 10 sucks because it doesn't work in either chrome or ie.

FTE has a built-in modelviewer which naturally supports all the formats that FTE supports (as well as all the extra support stuff like .framegroups files and shaders).
use either the modelviewer command or use the dir command (eg: dir progs/*.mdl) and then click one of the listed files (which works for a few filetypes, not just models).

or there's noesis, which has some export functionality too.

or you could even write some modelviewer feature into that mod you're working on.

Thanks Spike!

Don't know why I didn't think of that. Hmm... a devmode_modelview 1 consolevar that let's me "attack" any model to change it's skin and show it's precached gibs and their corrresponding skins above it would be quite handy.

Could they please add Beta to the title of my Keep mod news post. It's incomplete, hence only 0.2 instead of 1.0.

From the Mark V thread:

These days, mappers are doing everything to push Quake map specifications beyond any previously known limits.

I was thinking just that the other day and realized it echoed how id used to force the hardware manufacturers to push the technology forward with each new release...

GOG Directories?

#29714 posted by dumptruck_ds on 2017/09/12 15:48:30

Working on tutorials for Quake mapping.

Does GOG put games in specific directory like Steam does? Can you select where it goes? I want to be able to tell newbs where to find their pak files.

#29715 posted by Joel B on 2017/09/12 21:05:48

Typically in the "GOG Games\Quake" folder on some drive.

BTW are you aware of http://neogeographica.com/site/pages/tools/quakestarter.html ? That's my own little newbie-assistance project. (Which includes some automated attempts to find existing pak files.)

No looks good gonna read the whole thing on my lunch break today... interesting.

And thanks for the heads up about GOG. I didn't really want to buy Quake a third time. Wait, actually i got it for free at QuakeCon when q1 came to Steam they gave us all codes. SO I guess I am still using my WinQuake CD assets. :)

Just noticed your Steam Controller for Quake setup. Nice!

-hipnotic -rogue -game <modname>

#29717 posted by Qmaster on 2017/09/13 04:29:48

Does -hipnotoc do something cool for .gravity to work on individual entities? My trigger_setgravity and item_antigrav_belt entities do nothing.

Is there a specific file in the engine code that details what happens for WriteByte when using -rogue. I get wierd errors when using either -hipnotic or -rogue in my Keep mod but I'm also using very different IT_WHATEVERs for self.items and self.items2.

Nevermind The Gravity Question

#29718 posted by Qmaster on 2017/09/13 05:04:55

The Rubicon ladder code in PlayerPrethink was setting self.gravity to 1.

What Was The Font

#29722 posted by Mugwump on 2017/09/20 02:08:13

used in Rubicon textures?

#29723 posted by metlslime on 2017/09/20 02:55:55

Rubicon 1, the terminator font (some version of it)
Rubicon 2, microgramma extended bold

Thanks Metl

#29724 posted by Mugwump on 2017/09/20 03:13:26

If you or anyone else can remember the exact version of the Terminator font, it'd be nice.
